WHEELS AND TIRES
NOTE:
All wheel fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital parts
and systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of the same
part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement part
of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to as-
sure proper retention of all parts.
There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive damage and weakening of the metal.
CONTENTS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TIRES
This vehicle is equipped with following tire. P215 / 65 R16, 215 / 65 R16 or 235 / 60 R16
The tires are of tubeless type. The tires are designed to operate satisfactorily with loads up to the full rated load
capacity when inflated to the recommended inflation pressure.
Correct tire pressures and driving habits have an important influence on tire life. Heavy cornering, excessively rapid
acceleration, and unnecessary sharp braking increase tire wear.
WHEELS
Standard equipment wheels are following steel wheel. 16
6 1 / 2 J or 16
7JJ
REPLACEMENT TIRES
When replacement is necessary, the original equipment type tire should be used. Refer to the Tire Placard. Re-
placement tires should be of the same size, load range and construction as those originally on the vehicle. Use
of any other size or type tire may affect ride, handling, speedometer / odometer calibration, vehicle ground clear-
ance and tire or snow chain clearance to the body and chassis.
NOTE:
Do not mix different types of tires on the same vehicle such as radial, bias and bias-belted tires except in
emergencies, because vehicle handling may be seriously affected and may result in loss of control.
It is recommended that new tires be installed in pairs on the same axle. If necessary to replace only one tire, it
should be paired with the tire having the most tread, to equalize braking traction.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
If replacing seat belt is necessary, replace buckle and ELR (or webbing) together as a set. This is for
the reason of ensuring locking of tongue plate with buckle. If these parts are replaced individually, such
a locking condition may become unreliable. For this reason, SUZUKI will supply only the spare buckle
and ELR (or webbing) in a set part.
Before servicing or replacing seat belts, refer to following precautionary items.

Seat belts should be normal relative to strap retractor and buckle portions.

Keep sharp edges and damaging objects away from belts. Avoid bending or damaging any portion of belt buckle,
latch plate and ELR.

Do not bleach or dye belt webbing. (Use only mild soap and lukewarm water to clean it.)

When installing a seat belt anchor bolt, start bolt by hand to prevent cross-threading.

Use only the correct seat belt anchor bolts and screws and tighten to the correct torque value.

Do not attempt any repairs on retractor mechanisms or retractor covers. Replace defective assemblies with new
replacement parts.

Keep belts dry and clean at all times.

If there exist any parts in question, replace such parts.

Replace belts whose webbing is cut or otherwise damaged.

Do not put anything into trim panel opening which seat belt webbing passes through.

SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
SERVICE AND DIAGNOSIS
WARNING/CAUTION labels are attached on each part of air bag system components (SDM, air bag (inflator) mod-
ules and seat belt pretensioners). Be sure to follow the instructions.
WARNING:

If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, Suzuki recommends that the air
bag system be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system activation.

Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard or any other air bag system components. Modifications
can adversely affect air bag system performance and lead to injury.

Failure to follow procedures could result in possible air bag system activation, personal injury or un-
needed air bag system repairs.

Many of service procedures require disconnection of ªAIR BAGº fuse and air bag (inflator) modules (driver and
passenger) from initiator circuit to avoid an accidental deployment.

Do not apply power to the air bag system unless all components are connected or a diagnostic chart requests
it, as this will set a diagnostic trouble code.

The ªAir Bag Diagnostic System Checkº must be the starting point of any air bag diagnostics. The ªAir Bag Diag-
nostic System Checkº will verify proper ªAIR BAGº warning lamp operation and will lead you to the correct chart
to diagnose any air bag malfunctions. Bypassing these procedures may result in extended diagnostic time, incor-
rect diagnosis, and incorrect parts replacements.

Never use air bag component parts from another vehicle.

If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93
C (200
F) (for example, during a paint baking process),
remove the air bag system components beforehand to avoid component damage or unintended system activa-
tion.

When servicing, if shocks may be applied (eg., dropped from a height of 90 cm (3 ft) or more) to air bag system
component parts, remove those parts beforehand.

When using electric welding, be sure to disconnect air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner connec-
tors (driver and passenger) respectively.

When applying paint around the air bag system related parts, use care so that the harness or connector will not
be exposed to the paint mist.

Never expose air bag system component parts directly to hot air (drying or baking the vehicle after painting) or
flames.
WARNING:
When performing service on or around air bag system components or air bag wiring, follow the proce-
dures listed in the following pages to temporarily disable the air bag system. Refer to appropriate ser-
vice manual procedures. Failure to follow procedures could result in possible air bag system activa-
tion, personal injury or unneeded air bag system repairs.

REPAIRS AND INSPECTIONS REQUIRED AFTER AN ACCIDENT
CAUTION:

All air bag system components, including the electrical harness (component mounting points), must
be inspected after an accident. If any components are damaged or bent, they must be replaced even
if air bag system activation did not occur.

Never use air bag system parts from another vehicle.

Do not attempt to service the parts below. Service of these parts is by replacement only.
± Driver/Passenger air bag (inflator) module
± Driver/Passenger seat belt pretensioner
± SDM
± Contact coil and combination switch assembly
± Air bag wire harness

Proper operation of the sensors and air bag system requires that any repairs to the vehicle structure
return it to its original production configuration.
CAUTION:
After detecting one time of such collision as to meet deployment conditions, the SDM must not be used.
Refer to ªDiagnosisº when checking the SDM.
ACCIDENT WITH DEPLOYMENT ± COMPONENT
REPLACEMENT
Certain air bag system components must be replaced. Those com-
ponents are:

Driver and passenger air bag (inflator) modules
± Replace with new one.

Driver and passenger seat belt pretensioners
± Replace with new one as an assembly.

SDM after detecting such collision as to meet deployment condi-
tions
± Replace with new one.
