BEFORE DRIVING

AIR BAG Light
63J030
This light monitors inflators, crash sensors,
seat belt pretensioners, the front passen-
ger sensing system, and corresponding
electrical circuits.
This light blinks or comes on for several
seconds when the ignition switch is turned
to the “ON” position so you can check if the
light is working. The light will come on and
stay on if there is a problem in the air bag
system or the seat belt pretensioner sys-
tem.
Malfunction Indicator Light
65D530
Your vehicle has a computer-controlled
emission control system. A malfunction
indicator light is provided on the instrument
panel to indicate when it is necessary to
have the emission control system serviced.
The malfunction indicator light comes on
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position to let you know the light is
working and goes out when the engine is
started.
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
or blinks when the engine is running, ser-
vice to the emission control system is nec-
essary. Bring the vehicle to your SUZUKI
dealer to have the emission control system
serviced right away and avoid hard accel-
eration until the service is performed.
Also, if the light comes on, there may be
something wrong with the continuously
variable transaxle system. Have the sys-
tem inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer.
NOTE:
If the fuel filler cap is not installed fully, the
electrical system gets wet (such as by driv-
ing through a deep puddle of water) or the
fuel tank gets nearly empty, the malfunc-
tion indicator light may come on. If so, the
light will go off after driving a few times
after the fuel filler cap is installed fully, the
electrical system dries out or the fuel tank
is filled.
WARNING
If the AIR BAG light does not blink or
come on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position or stays
on or comes on when driving, the air
bag system or the seat belt preten-
sioner system may not work properly.
Have both systems inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
the malfunction indicator light is on
or blinking can cause permanent
damage to the vehicle’s emission
control system, and can affect fuel
economy and driveability.
