OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT Floor Mats (if equipped) EXAMPLE WARNING Failure to take the following precautions may result in the driver's side floor mat interfering with the pedals and causing a loss of vehicle control or an accident. • Make sure that the floor mat grommet(s) is(are) hooked to the fastener(s). • Never place additional floor mats on top of the existing floor mats. Luggage Compartment Cover Luggage or other cargo placed in the luggage compartment can be hidden from view by a luggage compartment cover. However, the luggage compartment covers are not designed to support items loaded on top of them, and may get damaged if used as a shelf. WARNING Do not carry items on top of the luggage compartment cover, even if they are small and light. Objects on top of the cover could be thrown about in an accident, causing injury, or could obstruct the driver's rear view. 80J2014 Your vehicle has a fastener to keep the driver's side floor mat from sliding forward and possibly interfering with the pedals. Whenever you put the driver's side floor mat back in the vehicle after it has been removed, be sure to hook the floor mat grommet(s) to the fastener(s) and position the floor mat properly in the footwell. When you replace the floor mats in your vehicle with a different type such as allweather floor mats, we highly recommend using genuine SUZUKI floor mats for proper fitting. CAUTION To avoid damaging the luggage compartment cover: • Do not place items on top of it. • Do not push down on it or lean on it. • Handle it carefully when installing or removing. NOTE: The seatback should always be securely latched in a fairly upright position when removing or installing the luggage compartment cover. 5-74 79K21-03E
