0A-8 GENERAL INFORMATION
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.
“A” : Sealant 99000-31150
Be sure to use special tools when instructed.
Special Tool
(A) : 09917-98221
(B) : 09916-58210
When disconnecting vacuum hoses, attach a tag
describing the correct installation positions so that the
hoses can be reinstalled 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
disconnect the fuel line between the fuel pump and
injector without first releasing the fuel pressure, or fuel
can be sprayed out under pressure.
When performing a work that produces a heat exceeding
80°C (176°F) in the vicinity of the electrical parts, remove
the heat sensitive electrical part(s) beforehand.
GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-9
Use care not to expose connectors and electrical parts
to water which will be a cause of a trouble.
Always be careful not to handle electrical parts (com-
puter, relay, etc.) in a rough manner or drop them.
PRECAUTIONS FOR CATALYTIC CONVERTER
For vehicles equipped with a catalytic converter, use only unleaded gasoline and be careful not to let a
large amount of unburned 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.)
PRECAUTION FOR INSTALLING MOBILE COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT
When installing mobile communication equipment such as CB (Citizens-Band)-radio or cellular-tele-
phone, be sure to observe the following precautions.
Failure to follow cautions may adversely affect electronic control system.
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the vehicle’s electronic control unit.
Keep the antenna feeder more than 20 cm (7.9 in) away from electronic control unit and its wire har-
nesses.
Do not run the antenna feeder parallel with other wire harnesses.
Confirm that the antenna and feeder are correctly adjusted.
0A-20 GENERAL INFORMATION
VEHICLE LIFTING POINTS
WHEN USING FRAME CONTACT HOIST
WARNING:
Before applying hoist to underbody, always take vehicle balance throughout service into consider-
ation. Vehicle balance on hoist may change depending on what part to be removed.
Before lifting up the vehicle, check to be sure that end of hoist arm is not in contact with brake pipe,
fuel pipe, bracket or any other part.
When using frame contact hoist, apply hoist as shown (right and left at the same position). Lift up
the vehicle till 4 tires are a little off the ground and make sure that the vehicle will not fall off by try-
ing to move vehicle body in both ways. Work can be started only after this confirmation.
Make absolutely sure to lock hoist after vehicle is hoisted up.
1. Vehicle front
2. Support position for frame contact hoist and safety stand

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).
