WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

Wiper Motor
1) As illustrated, use a 12 V battery to connect its (+) terminal to ter-
minal ªAº, and its (±) terminal to Black lead wire (2) (Type A, B)
or terminal ªEº (Type C).
If motor (1) rotates at a low revolution speed of 45 to 55 rpm, it
is proper. For high speed check, connect battery (+) terminal to
terminal ªBº, and its (±) terminal to Black lead wire (2) (Type A,
B) or terminal ªEº (Type C). If motor rotates at a high revolution
speed of 67 to 83 rpm, it is proper.

NOTE:
Fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital components and
systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of the same part
number of with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary.
Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute a design. Torque values must be used as spe-
cified during reassembly to assure proper retention of these parts.

WINDSHIELD
The front windshield is installed by using a special type of adhesive (that is, one component urethane adhesive
used with primer). For the Windshield replacement, it is important to use an adhesive which provides sufficient
adhesion strength and the follow the proper procedure.
CAUTION:

Described in this section is the glass replacement by using 3 types of primers and 1 type of adhesive
made by YOKOHAMA (one component urethane adhesive to be used with primer in combination).
When using primer and adhesive made by other manufacturers, be sure to refer to handling instruc-
tions supplied with them. Negligence in following such procedure or misuse of the adhesive in any
way hinders its inherent adhesive property. Therefore, before the work, make sure to read carefully
the instruction and description given by the maker of the adhesive to be used and be sure to follow
the procedure and observe each precaution throughout the work.

Should coated surface be scratched or otherwise damaged, be sure to repair damaged part, or corro-
sion may start from there.
Use an adhesive of above mentioned type which has following property.
