Child restraint systems
Before installing a child
restraint system in the vehicle,
there are precautions that need
to be observed, different types
of child restraint systems, as
well as installation methods,
etc., written in this manual.
Use a child restraint system
when riding with a small child
that cannot properly use a seat
belt. For the child's safety,
install the child restraint sys-
tem to a rear seat. Be sure to
follow the installation method
that is in the operation manual
enclosed with the restraint sys-
tem.
The use of a Suzuki genuine
child restraint system is rec-
ommended, as it is safer to
use in this vehicle. Suzuki gen-
uine child restraint systems
are made specifically for
Suzuki vehicles. They can be
purchased at a Suzuki dealer.
