WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with a Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System :
• Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under “General Description” in
air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on or near the air bag
system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precautions” under
“On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service on or around the air bag
system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional activation
of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may result in
severe injury.
• If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, SUZUKI recommends that the air
bag system be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system activation.
• Do not modify the steering wheel, instrument panel or any other air bag system component (on or
around air bag system components or wiring). Modifications can adversely affect air bag system
performance and lead to injury.
• If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93°C (200°F) (for example, during a paint baking
process), remove the air bag system components (air bag (inflator) module, sensing and diagnostic
module (SDM), seat belt pretensioner (if equipped) beforehand to avoid component damage or unin-
tended activation.
