Front passenger airbag deactiva­
tion system (if equipped)
(2)
78RB02027
The front passenger's front airbag system 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, "PASSENGER AIRBAG ON" indi­cator (1) or "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indicator (2) shows whether the front pas­senger's airbag system is activated or deactivated.
1-47
When the front passenger's airbag system is activated, both "PASSENGER AIRBAG ON" indicator (1) and "PASSENGER AIR­BAG OFF" indicator (2) come on for a few seconds and then go out. After that, only "PASSENGER AIRBAG ON" indicator (1) comes on for about 1 minute and then goes out.
When the front passenger's airbag system is deactivated, both "PASSENGER AIR­BAG ON" indicator (1) and "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indicator (2) come on for a few seconds and then go out. After that, only "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indicator (2) comes on.
When you activate or deactivate the front passenger's airbag system, check which indicator is on before starting the engine.
Side airbags, side curtain airbags and seat belt pretensioners are not connected to the airbag deactivation system. Even if the front passenger's airbag system is deacti­vated, side airbags, side curtain airbags and seat belt pretensioners are still acti­vated.

.A WARNING
When using child restraint system on the front passenger's seat, the front passenger's airbag system must be deactivated; otherwise deployment of the front passenger's airbag could result in the death or serious injury of the child.
.A WARNING
Check that the front passenger's air­bag system is activated and "PAS­SENGER AIRBAG ON" indicator (1) is on whenever there is no child restraint installed on the front pas­senger's seat.

According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in rear seating positions than front seating posi­tions. Whenever possible, SUZUKI recom­mends that child restraint systems be installed on the rear seat.
Airbag deactivation switch
78RB02028
The airbag deactivation switch (3) is installed only for use when a rear-facing child restraint system or infant restraint system is installed in the front passenger's seat. The switch is located on the lateral face of the passenger's side of the instru­ment panel.
To deactivate the front passenger's airbag system, follow the instructions below before starting the engine. 1) Check that the ignition switch is in "LOCK" position. 2) Insert the key into the airbag deactiva­tion switch (3), then push and turn the key to "OFF" (airbag off) position, and pull out the key. 3) Turn the ignition switch to "ON" posi­tion. Both indicators come on for a few seconds and then go out. After that, only "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indicator (2) comes on to remind you that the front passenger's airbag system is deactivated.

Exhaust gas warning
52D334
A WARNING
Avoid breathing exhaust gases. Exhaust gases contain carbon mon­oxide, a potentially lethal gas that is colorless and odorless. Since carbon monoxide is difficult to detect by itself, take the following precautions to help prevent carbon monoxide from entering your vehicle. • Do not leave the engine running in garages or other confined areas. (Continued)
1-49
A WARNING
(Continued) • Do not park with the engine run­ning for a long period of time, even i~ an open area. If it is necessary to s,t for a short time in a parked vehi­cle with the engine running, check that the air intake selector is set to "FRESH AIR" and the blower is at high speed. • Avoid operating the vehicle with the tailgate or trunk open. If it is necessary to do so, check that the sunroof (if equipped) and all win­dows are closed, and the blower is at high speed with the air intake selector set to "FRESH AIR". To allow proper operation of your vehicle's ventilation system, keep the air inlet grill in front of the wind­shield clear of snow, leaves or other obstructions at all times. • Keep the exhaust tailpipe area clear of snow and other material to help reduce the buildup of exhaust gases under the vehicle. This is particularly important when parked in blizzard conditions. Have the exhaust system inspected periodically for damage and leak­age. Any damage or leakage should be repaired immediately.

BEFORE DRIVING
Keys
54G489
Your vehicle comes with a pair of identical keys. Keep one of the keys as a spare key in a safe place. One key can open all of the locks on the vehicle.
The key identification number is stamped on a metal tag provided with the keys or on the keys. Keep the tag in a safe place. If you lose your keys, you will need this num­ber to have new keys made. Write the number below for your future reference.
I KEY NUMBER:

Immobilizer system
This system is designed to help prevent vehicle theft by electronically disabling the engine starting system. The engine can be started only with your vehicle's original immobilizer ignition key, which has an electronic identification code programmed in it. The key communicates the identification code to the vehicle when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" posi­tion. If you need to make spare keys, see a SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle must be pro­grammed with the correct identification code for the spare. A key made by an ordi­nary locksmith will not work.
80JM122
If the immobilizer warning light blinks when the ignition switch is in "ON" position, the engine will not start.
NOTICE
Do not modify or remove the immobi­lizer system. If modified or removed, the system cannot be properly oper­ated.
NOTE: If the immobilizer system warning light blinks or comes on, a message may be shown on the information display. This immobilizer system is maintenance­free.
It this light blinks, turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" position, and then turn it back to "ON" position. It the light still blinks after the ignition switch is turned back to "ON" position, there may be something wrong with your key or with the immobilizer system. Ask a SUZUKI dealer to have the system inspected.

NOTE: If you lose your immobilizer ignition key, ask a SUZUKI dealer as soon as possi­ble to deactivate the lost one, and to make a new key. If you own other vehicles with immobi­lizer keys, keep those keys away from the ignition switch when using your SUZUKI vehicle. Otherwise, the engine may not be started because they may interfere with your SUZUKI vehicle's immobilizer system. If you attach any metal objects to the immobilizer key, it may not start the engine.
NOTICE
The immobilizer key is sensitive elec­tronic instruments. To avoid damag­ing them: Do not expose them to impacts, moisture or high temperature such as on the dashboard under direct sunlight. Keep them away from magnetic objects.
