AIR BAG light
63J030
If AIR BAG light on the instrument cluster
does not blink or come on when the igni-
tion switch is first turned to “ON” position,
or the ignition mode is first changed to ON,
or AIR BAG light stays on, or comes on
while driving, the air bag system (or the
seat belt pretensioner system) may not
work properly. Have the air bag system
inspected by an authorized SUZUKI dealer
as soon as possible. Air bag symbol meaning
72M00150
You may find this label on the sun visor.
NOTE:
For the label of Taiwan models, refer to
“For Taiwan” in the “SUPPLEMENT” sec-
tion.
Front air bags
63J259
Front air bags are designed to inflate in
severe frontal crashes when the ignition
switch is in “ON” position or the ignition
mode is ON.
NOTE:
In a frontal angle crash, the side air bags (if
equipped) and side curtain air bags (if
equipped) may inflate.
Front air bags are not designed to inflate in
rear impacts, side impacts, rollovers or
minor frontal crashes, since they would
offer no protection in
those types of acci-
dents. Since an air bag deploys only one
time during an accident, seat belts are
needed to restrain occupants from further
movements during the accident.
WA R N I N G
An air bag supplements or adds to
the crash protectio n offered by seat
belts. The driver and all passengers
must be properly restrained by fas-
tening seat belts at all times, whether
or not an air bag is mounted at their
seating position, to minimize the risk
of severe injury or death in the event
of a crash.
WA R N I N G
NEVER use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by an
ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH
or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD
can occur.EXAMPLE

75RM4-01E
Therefore, an air bag is not a substitute for
seat belts. To maximize your protection,
always fasten your seat belts. Be aware
that no system can prevent all possible
injuries that may occur in an accident.
Driver’s front air bag
81P30640
Front passenger’ s front air bag
75RM106
The driver’s front air bag is located behind
the center pad of the steering wheel and
the front passenger’s front air bag is
located behind the passenger’s side of the
dashboard.
The words “SRS AIRBAG” are molded into
the air bag covers to identify the location of
the air bags.

EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
If the air bag stored place is damaged
or cracked, the air bag system may
not work properly, which could result
in serious injury in the event of a
crash. Have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized SUZUKI dealer.EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
(Vehicle without the front passenger
air bag deactivation system)
Do not install a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the passenger’s front air bag
inflates, a child in a rear-facing child
restraint could be killed or severely
injured. The back of a rear-facing
child restraint would be too close to
the inflating air bag.

Even though your vehicle is moderately
damaged by a crash, it may not be severe
enough to trigger front, side or side curtain
air bags to inflate. If your vehicle sustains
any front-end or side damage, have the air
bag system inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer to ensure that it works
properly.
WA R N I N G
• The driver should not lean over the steering wheel. The front passen-
ger should not rest his or her body
against the dashboard, or other-
wise get too close to the dash-
board. For vehicles with side air
bags and side curtain air bag,
occupants should not lean on or
sleep against the door. In these sit-
uations, the out-of-position occu-
pant would be too close to an
inflating air bag, and may suffer
severe injury.
• Do not attach any objects to, or place any objects ov er, the steering
wheel or dashboard. Do not place
any objects between the air bag
and the driver or front passenger.
These objects may interfere with air
bag operation or may be propelled
by the air bag in the event of a
crash. Also, these objects may
move when you start moving vehi-
cle or while vehicle is moving, they
may interfere with driver’s view or
safe driving. In each conditions
may cause severe injury. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• For vehicles with side air bags, do
not use non-genuine seat covers on
the front seats, because non-genu-
ine seat covers may obstruct the
inflation of side air bags. SUZUKI
highly recommends SUZUKI-genu-
ine seat covers to be used when
covering the front seats of such
vehicles with side air bags. Also,
near the door, do not place cup
holders, hangers or any other
objects and do not lean an umbrella,
as these objects could be propelled
by the air bag in the event of a
crash. Either of these conditions
may cause severe injury.
• Do not strike or apply significant levels of impact to the air bag com-
ponent areas. It can cause the air
bags to malfunction.

2-65BEFORE DRIVING
75RM4-01E
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic
module which records information about
the air bag system if the air bags deploy in
a crash. The module records information
about overall system status, and which
sensors activated the deployment.
Servicing the air bag system
If the air bags inflate, have the air bags
and related components replaced by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water and
the driver’s floor is submerged, the air bag
controller could be damaged. If this hap-
pens, ask your SUZUKI dealer to check
the air bag system as soon as possible.
Special procedures are required for servic-
ing or replacing an air bag. For that rea-
son, only an authorized SUZUKI dealer
should be allowed to service or replace
your air bags. Remind anyone who ser-
vices your SUZUKI vehicle that it has air
bags.
Service on or around air bag components
or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Improper ser-
vice could result in unintended air bag
deployment or could render the air bag
inoperative. Either of these two conditions
may result in severe injury. To prevent damage or unintended inflation
of the air bag system, check that the lead-
acid battery is disconnected and the igni-
tion switch has been in “LOCK” position or
the ignition mode has been LOCK (OFF)
for at least 90 seconds before performing
any electrical service work on your
SUZUKI vehicle. Do not touch air bag sys-
tem components or wires. The wires are
wrapped with yellow tape or yellow tubing,
and the couplers are yellow for easy identi-
fication.
Scrapping a vehicle that has an uninflated
air bag can be hazardous. Ask your dealer,
body repair shop or scrap yard for help
with disposal.
Front passenger air bag deactiva-tion system (if equipped)
75RM189
The front passenger’s front air bag must
be deactivated if a child restraint system is
to be installed on the front passenger’s
seat.
When the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to ON, “PAS-
SENGER AIRBAG ON” indicator (1) or
“PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” indicator (2)
shows whether the front passenger’s air
bag is activated or deactivated.
