1987 SUZUKI GRAND VITARA AUX

[Carrier and hold-down]
The battery carrier and hold-down clamp should
be clean and free from corrosion before instal-
ling the battery. The carrier should be in good
condition so that it will support the battery
securely and keep it level.
Make certain there are no parts in carrier before
installing the battery.
To prevent the battery from shaking in its
carrier, the hold-down bolts should be tight but
not over tightened.
[Visual inspection]
Check for obvious damage, such as cracked or
broken case or cover, that could permit loss of
electrolyte. If obvious damage is noted, replace
the battery. Determine cause of damage and
correct as needed.
Check the battery terminal and cords for corro-
sion. If any, it should be cleaned.
[Built-in indicator]
This sealed battery has a built-in temperature
compensated indicator in the top of the battery.
This indicator is to be used with the following
diagnostic procedure. When observing the
indicator, make sure that the battery has a clean
top. A light may be needed in some poorly-lit
areas.
Under normal operation, two indications can
be seen

l Clear with Red Dot
This means the discharging battery. In this case,
charge the battery until the indicator will be
blue with red dot. The charging and electrical
systems should also be checked at this time. If
any defective is found, correct it. While charging
it, if the battery feels hot 52°C (125” F), or if
violent gassing or spewing of electrolyte through
the vent hole occurs, discontinue charging or
reduce charging rate.
[Jump starting in case of emergency with
auxiliary (booster) battery]
NOTE:
l Do not push or tow the vehicle to start.
Damage to the emission system and/or to
other parts of the vehicle may result.
8 Both booster and discharged battery should
be treated carefully when using jumper cables.
Follow the procedure outlined below, being
careful not to cause sparks:
CAUTION:
l Departure from these conditions or the
procedure below could result in: (1)
Serious personal injury (particularly to
eyes) or property damage from such
causes as battery explosion, battery acid,
or electrical burns; and/or (2) damage to
electronic components of either vehicle.
l Never expose battery to open flame or
electric spark-batteries generate a gas
which is flammable and explosive.
l Remove rings,watches,and other
jewelry. Wear approved eye protection.
l Do not allow battery fluid to contact
eyes, skin, fabrics, or painted surfaces -
fluid is a corrosive acid. Flush any con-
tacted area with water immediately and
thoroughly. Be careful that metal tools
or jumper cables do not contact the
positive battery terminal (or metal in
contact with it) and any other metal on
the car, because a short circuit could
occur. Batteries should always be kept
out of the reach of children.
1) Set parking brake and place transmission in
neutral. Turn off the ignition, turn off lights
and all other electrical loads.
2) Check electrolyte level. If level is below low
level line, replace battery.
NOTE:
When jump starting an engine with charging
equipment, be sure equipment used is 12volt
and negative ground. Do not use 24volt charging
equipment. Using each equipment can cause
serious damage to the electrical system or
electronic parts.

14-1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The transfer gear box is an auxiliary transmission for on-off control of two-speed drive transmitted to
both front and rear axles concurrently and provides additional speed reductions, HIGH and LOW, for any
selection of main transmission gears.
The functions of this auxiliary transmission are mainly two-selection between four-wheel drive (front and
rear axles) and two-wheel drive (rear axle) and between HIGH and LOW for four-wheel drive. Three
propeller shafts are associated with the gear box.
These functions are accomplished by means of four shafts arranged in three-axis configuration and two
sliding clutches. The selection is effected by actuating these clutches from a single control lever located
beside the driver’s seat. The gear box is mounted on a chassis frame.
