When using floor jack:
GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-21
In raising front or rear vehicle end off the floor by jacking, be sure
to put the jack against the center portion of front cross member (1)
or rear cross member (2).
WARNING:
Never apply jack against suspension parts (i.e., stabilizer,
etc.) or vehicle floor, or it may get deformed.
If the vehicle to be jacked up only at the front or rear end,
be sure to block the wheels on ground in order to ensure
safety.
After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it on
stands. It is extremely dangerous to do any work on the
vehicle raised on jack alone.
To perform service with either front or rear vehicle end jacked up,
be sure to place safety stands under body so that body is securely
supported. And then check to ensure that body does not slide on
safety stands and the vehicle is held stable for safety’s sake.

There are two kinds of colored wire used in this vehicle. One is
single-colored wire and the other is dual-colored (striped) wire.
The single-colored wire uses only one color symbol (i.e. “G”).
The dual-colored wire uses two color symbols (i.e. “G/Y”). The first
symbol represents the base color of the wire (“G” in the figure) and
the second symbol represents the color of the stripe (“Y” in the fig-
ure).

FASTENERS INFORMATION
METRIC FASTENERS
Most of the fasteners used for this vehicle are metric fasteners.
When replacing any fasteners, it is most important that replacement
fasteners be the correct diameter, thread pitch and strength.
FASTENER STRENGTH IDENTIFICATION
Most commonly used metric fastener strength property classes are
4T, 6.8, 7T, 8.8 and radial line with the class identification embossed
on the head of each bolt. Some metric nuts will be marked with
punch, 6 or 8 mark strength identification on the nut face. Figure
shows the different strength markings.
When replacing metric fasteners, be careful to use bolts and nuts
of the same strength or greater than the original fasteners (the
same number marking or higher). It is likewise important to select
replacement fasteners of the correct diameter and thread pitch.
Correct replacement bolts and nuts are available through the parts
division.

STANDARD TIGHTENING TORQUE
Each fastener should be tightened to the torque specified in each section of this manual. If no description or specifi-
cation is provided, refer to the following tightening torque chart for the applicable torque for each fastener. When
a fastener of greater strength than the original one is used, however, use the torque specified for the original fasten-
er.
NOTE:
For the flanged bolt, flanged nut and self-lock nut of 4T and 7T strength, add 10% to the tightening torque
given in the chart below.
The chart below is applicable only where the fastened parts are made of steel or light alloy.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
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 “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under “Gener-
al Description” 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 “Service Precau-
tions” 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).
