A WARNING
(Vehicle without the front passenger airbag deactivation system) Do not install a rear-facing child restraint in the front passenger's seat. If the passenger's front airbag 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 airbag.

A WARNING
(Vehicle with the front passenger air­bag deactivation system) When using a 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
If you install a child restraint system in the rear seat, slide the front seat far enough forward so that the child's feet do not touch the front seatback. This will help avoid injury to the child in the event of an accident.

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.

.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.

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.

Pinching prevention function
(if equipped)
The driver's window is equipped with a pinching prevention function. This function detects a foreign object that is caught in the window as it is being closed by AUTO­UP feature, which allows you to close the window without holding the window switch in UP position, and stops the window from closing to prevent damage.
A. WARNING
To avoid injuring an occupant by win­dow entrapment, check that no part of the occupant's body such as hands or head is in the path of the electric window when closing it. This function may not detect an object due to the size, hardness, or position of the object being caught in the closing window.
A.CAUTION
The pinching prevention function does not operate while you are holding the window switch in UP position. The pinching prevention function may not detect an object caught in the window just before the window is fully closed.
NOTE: Even if you cannot close the window by the AUTO-UP feature because there may be something wrong with the pinching preven­tion function, you can close the window by holding the window switch in UP position. If you drive in extreme off-road condition, the pinching prevention function may oper­ate accidentally because the window reacts to vehicle jolting.
Pinching prevention function initializa­tion When you disconnect and reconnect the lead-acid battery or replace the fuse, the function will be deactivated. In this condi­tion, the AUTO-DOWN feature will be deactivated, while the AUTO-UP feature may remain activated. The pinching pre­vention function needs to be initialized.
BEFORE DRIVING
To initialize the pinching prevention func­tion, use the following procedure: 1) Turn the ignition switch to "ON" posi­
tion. 2) Open the driver's window fully by hold­ing the window switch in DOWN posi­tion. 3) Close the driver's window by holding the switch in UP position, and keep holding the switch for 2 seconds after the window is fully closed. 4) Check the driver's window to see if the AUTO-DOWN/UP feature works.
A. WARNING
Whenever you disconnect and recon­nect the lead-acid battery or replace the fuse, the pinching prevention function needs to be initialized. The pinching prevention function will not be activated until the initialization is completed.
If the AUTO-DOWN/UP feature will not work after initialization, there might be something wrong with the pinching preven­tion function. Have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.
