BEFORE DRIVING • A seat belt extender should only be used for the person, vehicle and seating location it was provided for. • When using the extender, ensure that both ends are latched securely. Do not use the extender if the open end of the extender's buckle is within 152 mm (6 inches) of the center of the occupant's body (See diagram). Use of the extender when the buckle is too close to the center of the body could increase the risk of abdominal injury in the event of an accident, and could cause the shoulder belt to be positioned incorrectly. • Make sure to use the correct buckle corresponding to your seating position. • Seat belt extenders are not intended for use by pregnant women, and should only be used upon approval by their medical advisors. • Remove and stow the extender when it is not being used. WARNING Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of injury in a crash. • Only use an extender for the person, vehicle and seating position it was provided for. • Do not use if open end of extender's buckle is within 152 mm (6 inches) of center of occupant's body (See diagram). • Remove and stow the extender when it is not being used. WARNING This section of the owner's manual describes your SUZUKI's SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER SYSTEM. Please read and follow ALL these instructions carefully to minimize your risk of severe injury or death. Your vehicle is equipped with a seat belt pretensioner system at the front seating positions. You can use the pretensioner seat belts in the same manner as ordinary seat belts. The seat belt pretensioner system works with the SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (advanced air bags). The crash sensors and the electronic controller of the air bag system also control the seat belt pretensioners. The pretensioners are triggered only when there is a frontal or side crash severe enough to trigger the air bags and the seat belts are fastened. If the seat belts are not fastened, the respective pretensioner system will not be activated. For precautions and general information including servicing the pretensioner system, refer to the "Supplemental Restraint System (air bags)" section in addition to this "Seat Belt Pretensioner System" section, and follow all those precautions.
