Your vehicle has three types of fuses, as
described below:
Main Fuse – The main fuse takes current
directly from the battery.
Primary Fuses – These fuses are between the main fuse and individual fuses, and are for electrical load groups.
Individual Fuses – These fuses are for individual electrical circuits.
For details on protected circuits, refer to the “Fuses and Protected Circuits” section in this manual.

WARNING:
If the main fuse or a primary fuse
blows, be sure to have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized SUZUKI
dealer. Always use a genuine SUZUKI
replacement. Never use a substitute
such as a wire even for a temporary
fix, or extensive electrical damage
and a fire can result.

The fuses are also located under the driver’s side of the dashboard. Remove the fuse box lid by pulling it off. To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller provided in the fuse box. The amperage of each fuse is shown on the top of the fuse box cover.
WARNING:
Always be sure to replace a blown
fuse with a fuse of the correct amperage.
Never use a substitute such as aluminum foil or wire to replace a blown fuse. If you replace a fuse and the new one blows in a short period of time, you may have a major electrical problem. Have your vehicle inspected immediately by your SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
Make sure that the fuse box always carries
spare fuses.
