Suzuki XL7 2020 User Manual

The Suzuki XL7 came out in 2020 as a small crossover SUV. It’s a compact SUV with a roomy cabin and modern features that combines style, versatility, and usefulness.
The XL7 has a bold and modern look, with smooth lines, a big grille, and stylish LED headlights. It looks small but strong, which makes it stand out on the road.
The XL7’s cabin is a cosy and well-equipped place to be. It has three rows of seats that can hold up to seven people, so it’s good for big families or group trips. The seats are made to be comfortable, and the second and third rows can be folded down when more room is needed for cargo. The XL7 has a number of features that make it easy to use and keep up-to-date. It might have a touchscreen entertainment system that works with your smartphone. This would make it easy to stay connected and use your favourite apps. You may also be able to get automatic climate control, keyless access, and high-tech safety features.

RECOMMENDATION OF GENUINE SUZUKI PARTS AND ACCESSORIES USE

SUZUKI strongly recommends the use of genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories. Genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories are built to the highest standards of quality and performance and are designed to fit your vehicle’s exact specifications. A wide variety of non-genuine replacement parts and accessories for SUZUKI vehicles are currently available in the market. Using these parts and accessories can affect the vehicle’s performance and shorten its useful life. Therefore, installation of non-genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories is not covered under warranty.

Non-genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories
Some parts and accessories may be approved by certain authorities in your country. Some parts and accessories are sold as SUZUKI-authorized replacement parts and accessories. Some genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories are sold as re-use parts and accessories. These parts and accessories are non-genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories and the use of these parts is not covered under warranty.

Re-use of genuine SUZUKI parts and accessories
The resale or re-use of the following items which could cause hazards for users is expressly forbidden:

• Airbag components and all other pyrotechnic items, including their components (e.g. cushions, control devices, and sensors)
• Seat belt system, including their components (e.g. webbing, buckles, and retractors)

The airbag and seat belt pre-tensioner components contain explosive chemicals. These components should be removed and disposed of properly by the SUZUKI-authorized service shop or scrap yard to avoid unintended explosion before scrapping.

Floor Mats

To prevent the driver’s side floor mat from sliding forward and possibly interfering with the operation of the pedals, genuine SUZUKI floor mats are recommended. 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 grommets to the fasteners and position the floor mat properly in the footwell. When you replace the floor mats in your vehicle with a different type such as all-weather floor mats, we highly recommend using genuine SUZUKI floor mats for proper fitting.

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 grommets are hooked to the fasteners.
• Never stack floor mats.
• Never use a floor mat that does not fit the floor contours.

Seat Adjustment

WARNING:
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. 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. Do not place any object under the front seat. If an object becomes caught under the front seat, the following may occur.

Adjusting Seat Position

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.

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. To adjust the seatback angle of the 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.

Head Restraints

Head restraints are designed to help reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case of an accident. 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.

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 seat-back to provide enough overhead clearance to remove the head restraint.

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 head restraint must be removed (for cleaning, replacement, etc.), push in the lock lever and pull the head restraint all the way out.

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.
