If your vehicle is not fitted with a restrictor
in the fuel filler pipe then you may use
leaded or unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 85 or higher.
Note, it is preferable to use unleaded gasoline.
If your vehicle is fitted with a restrictor in
the fuel filler pipe then you must use
unleaded gasoline with an octane number
(RON) of 91 or higher (or RON of 95 or
higher if it is stated on the fuel filler lid).
These vehicles are also identified by a
label attached near the fuel filler pipe that
states: “UNLEADED FUEL ONLY”, “NUR
UNVERBLEITES BENZIN”, “ENDAST
BLYFRI BENSIN” or “SOLO GASOLINA
SIN PLOMO”.
If the “RON 95” label is attached, you must
use unleaded gasoline with an octane
number (RON) of 95 or higher.
Gasoline/Ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in some areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% ethanol. Make sure this gasoline-ethanol blend
has octane ratings no lower than those
recommended for gasoline.
Gasoline/Methanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and methanol
(wood alcohol) are also commercially available in some areas. DO NOT USE fuels
containing more than 5% methanol under
any circumstances. Fuel system damage
or vehicle performance problems resulting
from the use of such fuels are not the
responsibility of SUZUKI and may not be
covered under the New Vehicle Warranty.
Fuels containing 5% or less methanol may
be suitable for use in your vehicle if they
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
are using a gasoline/alcohol blend, you
should switch back to unleaded gasoline
containing no alcohol.
Diesel Engine
The diesel fuel should be with Cetane
Number (CN) higher than 51 and sulfur
content less than 10 ppm (parts per million). SUZUKI recommends to use the diesel fuel conformable to EN590. Do not use
marine diesel fuel, heating oils and so
forth.
CAUTION
The fuel tank has an air space to
allow for fuel expansion in hot
weather. If you continue to add fuel
after the filler nozzle has automatically shut off or an initial blowback
occurs, the air chamber will become
full. Exposure to heat when fully
fuelled in this manner will result in
leakage due to fuel expansion. To
prevent such fuel leakage, stop filling
after the filler nozzle has automatically shut off, or when using an alternative non automatic system, initial
vent blowback occurs.
CAUTION
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alcohol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
Your vehicle comes with a pair of identical
keys. Keep the spare key in a safe place.
One key can open all of the locks on the
vehicle.
The key identification number is stamped
on a metal tag provided with the keys or on
the keys. Keep the tag (if equipped) in a
safe place. If you lose your keys, you will
need this number to have new keys made.
Write the number below for your future reference.
KEY NUMBER:
Immobilizer System (if equipped)
This system is designed to help prevent
vehicle theft by electronically disabling the
engine starting system.
The engine can be started only with your
vehicle’s original immobilizer ignition key
which has an electronic identification code
programmed into it. The key communicates the identification code to the vehicle
when the key is turned to the “ON” position. If you need to make spare keys, see
your SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle must be
programmed with the correct identification
code for the spare keys. A key made by an
ordinary locksmith will not work.

If the Immobilizer system light (1) for gasoline engine or service vehicle soon (SVS)
light (2) for diesel engine blinks when the
ignition switch is in the “ON” position, there
may be something wrong with your key or
with the immobilizer system. Ask your
SUZUKI dealer to inspect the system.
sible to have the lost one deactivated,
then have the new key made by them.
• If you own other vehicles with immobilizer keys, keep those keys away from
the ignition switch when using your
SUZUKI, or the engine may not be
started because they may interfere with
your SUZUKI’s immobilizer system.
• In case of attaching any metal objects to
the immobilizer key, it may not start the
engine.
CAUTION
The immobilizer key is a sensitive
electronic instrument. To avoid damaging the immobilizer key:
• Do not expose it to impacts, moisture or high temperature such as
on the dashboard under direct sunlight.
• Keep the immobilizer key away
from magnetic objects.
This immobilizer system, model
5WK49181 and 5WK49182 for gasoline
engine or model 5WK49183 and
5WK49184 for diesel engine are in compliance with the essential requirements and
other provisions of the Directive 1999/5/
EC.

Never attempt to adjust the driver’s
seat or seatback while driving. The
seat or seatback could move unexpectedly, causing loss of control.
Make sure that the driver’s seat and
seatback are properly adjusted
before you start driving.
WARNING
To avoid excessive seat belt slack,
which reduces the effectiveness of
the seat belts as a safety device,
make sure that the seats are adjusted
before the seat belts are fastened.
Adjusting Seat Position
EXAMPLE
63J222
The adjustment lever for each front seat is
located under the front of the seat. To
adjust the seat position, pull up on the
adjustment lever and slide the seat forward
or rearward.
After adjustment, try to move the seat forward and rearward to ensure that it is
securely latched.

If each front seat is equipped with a seat
height adjuster lever on the outboard side
of the seat, raise or lower the seat by pulling up or down the adjuster lever.
Adjusting Seatbacks
WARNING
All seatbacks should always be in an
upright position when driving, or seat
belt effectiveness may be reduced.
Seat belts are designed to offer maximum protection when seatbacks are
in the upright position.
EXAMPLE
63J221
To adjust the seatback angle of front seats,
pull up the lever on the outboard side of
the seat, move the seatback to the desired
position, and release the lever to lock the
seatback in place.
Adjustable Head Restraints
(if equipped)
Head restraints are designed to help
reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case
of an accident.
WARNING
• Never drive the vehicle with the
head restraints removed.
• Do not attempt to adjust the head
restraint while driving.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to recline the seatback to provide enough overhead clearance to remove the head restraint.

BEFORE DRIVING
Adjust the head restraint to the position
which places the center of the head
restraint closest to the top of your ears. If
this is not possible for very tall passengers,
adjust the head restraint as high as possible.
Front
EXAMPLE

To raise the front head restraint, pull
upward on the restraint until it clicks. To
lower the restraint, push down on the
restraint while holding in the lock lever. If a

lever and pull the head restraint all the way
out.
Front Seat Heater (if equipped)
63J183
With the ignition switch in the “ON” position, push in one or both of the seat heater
switches to warm the corresponding
seat(s). The indicator light below the switch
will also come on. To turn off the seat
heater, push in the switch again. The indicator light below the switch will go off.

WARNING
Improperly using the seat heater can
be hazardous. An occupant can suffer burns even if the heating temperature is fairly low, if the occupant is
wearing thin pants, a thin skirt or
shorts and leaves the heater on for
long periods.
Avoid using the seat heater for these
occupants:
• People who have reduced feeling in
their legs, including the elderly or
those with certain disabilities.
• Small children, or anyone with sensitive skin.
• People who are asleep or under the
influence of alcohol or other drugs
which make them tired.
