2000 SUZUKI SWIFT Air

GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-17
Improperly formed or damaged terminals.
Check each connector terminal in problem circuits carefully
to ensure good contact tension by using the corresponding
mating terminal.
If contact tension is not enough, reform it to increase contact
tension or replace.
Poor terminal-to-wire connection.
Check each wire harness in problem circuits for poor con-
nection by shaking it by hand lightly. If any abnormal condi-
tion is found, repair or replace.
Wire insulation which is rubbed through, causing an intermit-
tent 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.
1. Check contact tension by inserting and removing just once.
2. Check each terminal for bend and proper alignment.

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
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” 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
“LOCK” 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).

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-9
1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool.
2) Loosen radiator drain plug (1) to drain coolant.
3) Remove reservoir 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.
6) Add coolant to reservoir so that its level aligns with Full
mark. Then, reinstall cap aligning arrow marks on reservoir
and cap. CAUTION:
When changing engine coolant, use mixture of 50% water
and 50% ANTIFREEZE/ANTICORROSION COOLANT for
the market where ambient temperature falls lower than –
16°C (3°F) in winter, and mixture of 70% water and 30%
ANTIFREEZE/ANTICORROSION COOLANT for the market
where ambient temperature doesn’t fall lower than –16°C
(3°F).
Even in a market where no freezing temperature is antici-
pated, mixture of 70% water and 30% ANTIFREEZE/ANTI-
CORROSION COOLANT should be used for the purpose
of corrosion protection and lubrication.
