WARNING
• Inspect all seat belt assemblies
after any collision. Any seat belt
assembly which was in use during
a collision (other than a very minor
one) should be replaced, even if
damage to the assembly is not
obvious. Any seat belt assembly
even which was not in use during a
collision must be replaced if the
seat belt pretensioners were acti-
vated. The pretensioners and the
load limiter only function once. In
case they did not activate, consult
with SUZUKI dealer.
• If frays, scratches, cuts are found
on the seat belt, replace it with a
new one.
• If the buckle does not work prop-
erly, ask an authorized SUZUKI
dealer or a qualified workshop for
inspection.
• If strong force was applied to the
seat belt in a collision, the seat belt
function may be damaged, even
though its appearance is normal.
Replace the seat belt with a new
one.

• As the seat belt may not provide
the best performance and it may
result in severe injury in case of
emergency, observe the following
points.
– When foreign material enters into
the buckle or you spill a drink,
the seat belt may not work prop-
erly. In this case, ask an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer or
qualified workshop for inspec-
tion.
– As the seat belt may be damaged,
be careful not to get the seat belt
caught in the door. Before clos-
ing the door, check that the seat
belt is retracted without any
slack.
– Do not modify or remove the seat
belt.
