2000 SUZUKI SWIFT Position

GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-7

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.
“A”: Sealant 99000-31150

Be sure to use special tools when instructed.

0A-8 GENERAL INFORMATION

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.

When performing a work that produces a heat exceeding
80C in the vicinity of the electrical parts, remove the heat
sensitive electrical part(s) beforehand.

Use care not to expose connectors and electrical parts to wa-
ter which will be a cause of a trouble.

0A-20 GENERAL INFORMATION
VEHICLE LIFTING POINTS
WARNING:

Before applying hoist to underbody, always take vehicle balance throughout service into consider-
ation. Vehicle balance on hoist may change depending of 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 trying 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.

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).

Engine Oil and Filter Change
WARNING:
New and used engine oil can be hazardous.
Be sure to read “WARNING” in General Precaution in SEC-
TION 0A and observe what in written there.
Use engine oil of SE, SF, SG, SH or SJ grade.
Select the appropriate oil viscosity according to the left chart.
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 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.

4) Apply engine oil to new oil filter O-ring.
5) Screw new filter on oil filter stand by hand until filter O-ring con-
tacts mounting surface.
CAUTION:
To tighten oil filter properly, it is important to accurately
identify the position at which filter O-ring first contacts
mounting surface.
6) Tighten filter 3 / 4 turn from the point of contact with mounting sur-
face using an oil filter wrench.

1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool.
2) Loosen radiator drain plug (1) to drain coolant.
3) Remove reservoir and drain.
4) Tighten drain plug securely. Also install reservoir.
5) Slowly pour specified amount of coolant to the base of radiator
filler neck, and run engine, with radiator cap removed, until ra-
diator upper hose is hot. This drives out any air which may still
be trapped within cooling system. Add coolant as necessary un-
til coolant level reaches filler throat of radiator. Reinstall radiator
cap.
6) Add coolant to reservoir (1) so that its level aligns with Full mark
(2). Then, reinstall cap to reservoir aligning match marks (3) on
reservoir and cap.
ITEM 1-6
Exhaust System Inspection
WARNING:
To avoid danger of being burned, do not touch exhaust sys-
tem when it is still hot.
Any service on exhaust system should be performed when
it is cool.
When carrying out periodic maintenance or vehicle is raised for oth-
er service, check exhaust system as follows:

Check rubber mountings for damage and deterioration.

Check exhaust system for leakage, loose connections, dents,
and damages.
If bolts or nuts are loose, tighten them to specification. Refer to
SECTION 6K for torque specification of bolts and nuts.

Check nearby body areas for damaged, missing or mispositioned
parts, open seams, holes, loose connections or other defects
which could permit exhaust fumes to seep into vehicle.

Make sure that exhaust system components have enough clear-
ance from underbody to avoid overheating and possible damage
to floor carpet.

Any defects should be fixed at once.
