onds and then go out.
After that, only "PASSENGER AIRBAG
ON" indicator (1) comes on for about 1
minute and then goes out.
When the front passenger's airbag is deac-
tivated, both "PASSENGER AIRBAG ON"
indicator (1) and "PASSENGER AIRBAG

onds and then go out.

WARNING
Whenever a child restraint system
has to be used in the front passen-
ger's seat, regardless of front facing
or rear facing, the front passenger's
airbag system must be deactivated.
Otherwise deployment of the front
passenger's airbag could result in the
death or serious injury of the child.
WARNING
Check that the front passenger's air-
bag is activated and "PASSENGER
AIRBAG ON" indicator (1) is on
whenever there is no child restraint
installed on the front passenger's
seat.
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in rear
seats than in the front passenger seat.
Whenever possible, SUZUKI
mends that child restraint systems be
installed on the rear seat.
Airbag deactivation switch
The airbag deactivation switch (3) is
installed only for use when a front-facing or
rear-facing child restraint system or infant
restraint system is installed in the front
passenger's seat. The switch is located at
the upper corner inside the glove box.
