Front SeatsStandard Seat (if equipped)Adjusting seat position
57L21109
The adjustment lever for each front seat is
located under the front of the seat. To
adjust the seat position, pull up on the
adjustment lever and slide the seat forward
or rearward. After adjustment, try to move
the seat forward and rearward to ensure
that it is securely latched.
WARNING
Never attempt to adjust the driver’s
seat or seatback while driving. The
seat or seatback could move unex-
pectedly, causing loss of control.
Make sure that the driver’s seat and
seatback are properly adjusted
before you start driving.
WARNING
To avoid excessive seat belt slack,
which reduces the effectiveness of
the seat belts as a safety device,
make sure that the seats are adjusted
before the seat belts are fastened.

WARNING
All seatbacks should always be in an
upright position when driving, or seat
belt effectiveness may be reduced.
Seat belts are designed to offer maxi-
mum protection when seatbacks are
in the upright position.
WARNING

seat or seatback while driving. The
seat or seatback could move unex-
pectedly, causing loss of control.
Make sure that the driver’s seat and
seatback are properly adjusted
before you start driving.
WARNING
To avoid excessive seat belt slack,
which reduces the effectiveness of
the seat belts as a safety device,
make sure that the seats are adjusted
before the seat belts are fastened.
CAUTION

seat. The object may cause damage
to the seat if caught under it.

Rear SeatsHead RestraintsHead restraints are designed to help
reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case
of an accident.NOTE:
It may be necessary to fold forward the
seatback to provide enough overhead
clearance to remove the head restraint.
Adjust the head restraint to the position
which places the center of the head
restraint closest to the top of your ears. If
this is not possible for very tall passengers,
adjust the head restraint as high as possi-
ble.
Rear
57L21039
Your vehicle is equipped with three head
restraints on the rear seat.
WARNING
Improperly using the seat heater can
be hazardous. An occupant can suf-
fer burns even if the heating tempera-
ture is fairly low, if the occupant is
wearing thin pants, a thin skirt or
shorts and leaves the heater on for
long periods.
Avoid using the seat heater for these
occupants:
 People who have reduced feeling in
their legs, including the elderly or
those with certain disabilities.
 Small children, or anyone with sen-
sitive skin.
 People who are asleep or under the
influence of alcohol or other drugs
which make them tired.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the heater ele-
ment:
 Do not subject the front seats to
heavy impacts, such as children
jumping on them.
 Do not cover the seat with any
insulating materials such as blan-
kets or cushions.
WARNING
All occupants, including the driver,
should not operate a vehicle or sit in
a vehicle’s seat until the head
restraints are placed in their proper
positions in order to minimize the
risk of severe injury in the event of a
crash.
WARNING
All head restraints must be rein-
stalled to properly protect vehicle
occupants.
WARNING
 Never drive the vehicle with the
head restraints removed.
 Do not attempt to adjust the head
restraint while driving.

To reinstall the head restraints, do the fol-
lowing:
With the correct side facing forward, insert
the head restraint into the seat until it is
locked at a height. Then adjust the height
as desired.
Folding Rear SeatsThe rear seats of your vehicle can be folded
forward to provide additional cargo space.
To fold the rear seats forward:
57L30037
1) Stow the seatbelt for the rear center
seat in the retractor behind the head
restraint and retain its end in the holder
so that the seatback for the left seating
place can be folded.
2) Adjust all the head restraints to the low-
est positions. In addition, tip forward the
head restraints for the right and left
seats.
3) Detach the seat belts for the right and
left seats from the seatbacks as shown
in the illustration so the belts are not
caught when the seatbacks are moved.
57L30038
4) Pull the release lever (1) on the top of
each split seat, and fold the seatbacks
forward.
WARNING
Always check that the head restraint
is firmly in position after installing it.
Avoid installing it with the backside
facing forward. A wrongly facing
head restraint does not provide the
intended protection, and also its
height cannot be adjusted.
CAUTION
After folding the rear seatback for-
ward, do not allow any foreign mate-
rial to enter the lock opening. This
may cause damage to the inside of
the lock and prevent the seatback
from being locked securely.

SUZUKI highly recommends that you use
a child restraint system to restrain infants
and small children. Many different types of
child restraint systems are available; make
sure that the restraint system you select
meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dards.
All child restraint systems are designed to
be secured in vehicle seats by either seat
belts (lap belts or the lap portion of lap-
shoulder belts) or by special rigid lower
anchor bars built into the seats. Whenever
possible, SUZUKI recommends that child
restraint systems be installed on the rear
seat. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in
rear seating positions than in front seating
positions.
If you must use a front-facing child restraint
in the front passenger’s seat, be sure to
move the front passenger’s seat as far
back as possible.
65D607 65D608
65D609
WARNING
Do not install a rear-facing child
restraint in the front passenger’s
seat. If the passenger’s air bag
inflates, a child in a rear-facing child
restraint could be killed or seriously
injured. The back of a rear-facing
child restraint would be too close to
the inflating air bag.

Installation with the LATCH System
65D33757L21046
Your vehicle is equipped with lower
anchors for securing up to one or two stan-
dard LATCH-type child restraint(s) in the
rear seats. (LATCH stands for Lower
Anchors and Tethers for Children.)
The anchors are located where the rear of
the seat cushion meets the bottom of the
seatback.
57L21047
The covers marked with the child restraint
symbol as shown in the illustration indicate
the presence of lower anchors. Remove
the covers before installing the child
restraint system. Cover the lower anchors
when not in use.
NOTE:
Stow the removed covers in the glove box
or other appropriate stowage so they will
not inconvenience the occupants.
Install the LATCH-type child restraint sys-
tem according to the instructions provided
by the child restraint system manufacturer.
After installing, try moving the child
restraint system in all directions, especially
forward to make sure the flexible straps or
rigid connecting bars are securely latched
to the anchors.

NOTE:
Although there are three rear seating posi-
tions, you cannot install three LATCH type
child restraints in the rear seats. You can
install one or two LATCH restraint(s). Be
sure to install the LATCH type child
restraint(s) in the outboard seating posi-
tions.
If your LATCH restraint has flexible lower
connecting straps, these general instruc-
tions apply:
1) If possible, fold the seatback rearward
for easier installation.

2) Place the child restraint in the rear seat,
feeding the strap hooks through the
slots in the seat cushion or the slots in
the seatback bottom.

3) Snap the strap hooks to the anchors.
Take care not to pinch your fingers.

4) Return the seatback to the normal,
upright position. Tighten the lower
straps as described in the child restraint
owner’s manual. Attach the top tether
strap, if applicable.

directly behind the child restraint. Do
not attach the top strap to the luggage
restraint loops (if equipped).
57L21049
4) When routing the top strap, be sure to
pass the top strap as shown in the illus-
tration. (Refer to “Adjustable Head
Restraints” section for details on how to
raise or lower the head restraint.)
5) Make sure that cargo does not interfere
with routing of the top strap.
Seat Belt Extender
65D613
(1) Center of body
(2) Less than 152 mm (6 inches)
(3) Open end of extender buckle
If a seat belt cannot be fastened securely
because it is not long enough, see an
authorized SUZUKI dealer for a seat belt
extender. Seat belt extenders are available
for each seating position except for the
rear center position. After inspecting the
relationship between the seat belt length,
the occupant’s body size, and the seat
adjustment (the driver’s seat should always
be adjusted as far back as possible while
still maintaining control of the vehicle, and
other adjustable seats should be adjusted
as far back as possible), your dealer can
select the appropriate seat belt extender.
WARNING
Do not attach the child restraint top
strap to the luggage restraint loops
(if equipped). Incorrectly attached top
strap will reduce the intended effec-
tiveness of the child restraint system.Ty p e 2 Ty p e 1
