WARNING
Take extreme care when working on
your vehicle to prevent accidental
injury. Carefully observe the follow-
ing precautions:
• To prevent damage or unintended
activation of the airbag system or
seat belt pretensioner system, check
that the lead-acid battery is discon-
nected and the ignition switch has
been in “LOCK” position for at least
90 seconds before performing any
electrical service work on your
SUZUKI vehicle. Do not touch airbag
system components, seat belt pre-
tensioner system components or
wires.
The wires are wrapped with yellow
tape or yellow tubing, and the cou-
plers are yellow for easy identifica-
tion.

service work with the engine run-
ning, check that the parking brake
is set fully and the transmission is
in Neutral (for manual transmission

the engine or when the engine is

engine, exhaust manifold and
pipes, muffler, radiator and water
hoses.
• Do not allow smoking, sparks, or
flames around fuel or the battery.
Flammable fumes are present.
• Do not get under your vehicle if it is
supported only with the portable
