Theft Deterrent Light (If Equipped); Theft Deterrent Alarm System (If Equipped) - Suzuki VITARA Series Manual

(1) Crossed-out wheeled bin symbol
The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol (1)
indicates that a used battery should be col-
lected separately from ordinary household
trash.
By ensuring the used battery is disposed
of or recycled correctly, you will help pre-
vent potential negative consequences for
the environment and human health, which
could otherwise be caused by inappropri-
ate battery disposal. The recycling of
materials will help to conserve natural
resources. For more detailed information
about disposing of or recycling of the used
battery, consult your SUZUKI dealer.
