GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-3
PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTION FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED
WITH A SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
(AIR BAG) SYSTEM
WARNING:

The configuration of air bag system parts are as shown in
the figure. When it is necessary to service (remove, rein-
stall and inspect) these parts, be sure to follow proce-
dures described in SECTION 10B. Failure to follow proper
procedures could result in possible air bag system activa-
tion, personal injury, damage to parts or air bag system
being unable to activate when necessary.

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.

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

When troubleshooting air bag system, be sure to follow
ªDIAGNOSISº in SECTION 10B. Bypassing these proce-
dures may result in extended diagnostic time, incorrect diag-
nosis, and incorrect parts replacement.

Never use electrical test equipment other than that specified
in this manual.
WARNING:
Never attempt to measure the resistance of the air bag (in-
flator) modules (driver and passenger) and seat belt preten-
tioners (driver and passenger). It is very dangerous as the
electric current from the tester may deploy the air bag or ac-
tivate the pretensioner.

0A-8 GENERAL INFORMATION

When removing the battery, be sure to disconnect the nega-
tive cable first and then the positive cable. When reconnect-
ing the battery, connect the positive cable first and then the
negative cable, and replace the terminal cover.

When removing parts that are to be reused, be sure to keep
them arranged in an orderly manner so that they may be rein-
stalled in the proper order and position.

Whenever you use oil seals, gaskets, packing, O-rings, lock-
ing washers, split pins, self-locking nuts, and certain other
parts as specified, be sure to use new ones. Also, before
installing new gaskets, packing, etc., be sure to remove any
residual material from the mating surfaces.

Make sure that all parts used in reassembly are perfectly
clean.

When use of a certain type of lubricant, bond or sealant is
specified, be sure to use the specified type.
ªAº: Sealant 99000-31150

Be sure to use special tools when instructed.

GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-9

When disconnecting vacuum hoses, attach a tag describing
the correct installation positions so that the hoses can be re-
installed correctly.

After servicing fuel, oil, coolant, vacuum, exhaust or brake
systems, check all lines related to the system for leaks.

For vehicles equipped with fuel injection systems, never dis-
connect the fuel line between the fuel pump and injector
without first releasing the fuel pressure, or fuel can be
sprayed out under pressure.
PRECAUTIONS FOR CATALYTIC CONVERTER
For vehicles equipped with a catalytic converter, use only un-
leaded gasoline and be careful not to let a large amount of un-
burned gasoline enter the converter or it can be damaged.
± Conduct a spark jump test only when necessary, make it as
short as possible, and do not open the throttle.
± Conduct engine compression checks within the shortest
possible time.
± Avoid situations which can result in engine misfire (e.g.
starting the engine when the fuel tank is nearly empty).

0A-16 GENERAL INFORMATION

Poor terminal-to-wire connection.
Check each wire harness in problem circuits for poor connection
by shaking it by hand lightly. If any abnormal condition is found,
repair or replace.

Wire insulation which is rubbed through, causing an intermittent
short as the bare area touches other wiring or parts of the vehicle.

Wiring broken inside the insulation. This condition could cause
continuity check to show a good circuit, but if only 1 or 2 strands
of a multi-strand-type wire are intact, resistance could be far too
high.
If any abnormality is found, repair or replace.
PRECAUTION FOR INSTALLING MOBILE
COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT
When installing mobile communication equipment such as CB (Citi-
zens-Band)-radio or cellular-telephone, be sure to observe the fol-
lowing precautions.
Failure to follow cautions may adversely affect electronic control
system.

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the vehicle's elec-
tronic control unit.

Keep the antenna feeder more than 20 cm (7.9 in.) away from
electronic control unit and its wire harnesses.

Do not run the antenna feeder parallel with other wire harnesses.

Confirm that the antenna and feeder are correctly adjusted.

Engine Oil and Filter Change
WARNING:
New and used engine oil can be hazardous.
Be sure to read ªWARNINGº in General Precaution in Sec-
tion 0A and observe what in written there.
Before draining engine oil, check engine for oil leakage. If any evi-
dence of leakage is found, make sure to correct defective part be-
fore proceeding to the following work.
1) Drain engine oil by removing drain plug.
2) After draining oil, wipe drain plug clean. Reinstall drain plug, and
tighten it securely as specified below.

0B-10 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
NOTE:
Engine oil capacity is specified. However, note that the
amount of oil required when actually changing oil may
somewhat differ from the data in the table depending on
various conditions (temperature, viscosity, etc.).
7) Check oil filter and drain plug for oil leakage.
8) Start engine and run it for three minutes. Stop it and wait five min-
utes before checking oil level. Add oil, as necessary, to bring oil
level to FULL level mark on dipstick.
NOTE:
Step 1) ± 7) outlined above must be performed with ENGINE
NOT RUNNING. For step 8), be sure to have adequate ven-
tilation while engine is running.
ITEM 1-5
Engine Coolant Change
WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not remove radia-
tor cap while engine and radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid
and steam can be blown out under pressure if cap is taken
off too soon.
1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool.
2) Loosen radiator drain plug to drain coolant.
3) Remove reservoir, which is on the side of radiator, and drain.
4) Tighten plug securely. Also reinstall reservoir.
5) Fill radiator with specified amount of coolant, and run engine for
2 or 3 minutes at idle. This drives out any air which may still be
trapped within cooling system. STOP ENGINE. Add coolant as
necessary until coolant level reaches the filler throat of radiator.
Reinstall radiator cap.
