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).

If leakage exists, correct it.
3) Drain old oil and fill new specified oil by specified amount (up
to level hole).
4) Apply sealant to thread of drain plug (2) and level/filler plug
(3) and torque them as specified below.

CHANGE MECHANISM
The same select pattern shift lever is used as the floor type and
frequently used “N” and “D” ranges are made selectable freely. Throttle position
signal circuit
(DTC P1700)No or abnormal throt-
tle opening signal is
inputtedScheduling of automatic gear shift is performed as throttle
valve opening is 0%.
Control of automatic gear shift (i.e. control of oil pressure) is
performed as throttle valve opening is 100%.
Coast down shifting is performed when brake is applied and
engine rev. is less than 1,500 rpm.
Lock-up function is turned OFF.

FLUID LEVEL AT ROOM TEMPERATURE
INSPECTION
The fluid level check at room temperature performed after repair
or fluid change before test driving is just preparation for level
check of normal operation temperature. The checking procedure
itself is the same as that described previously. If the fluid level is
between FULL COLD and LOW COLD, proceed to test drive. And
when the fluid temperature has reached the normal operating
temperature, check fluid again and adjust it as necessary.
FLUID CHANGE
1) Lift up vehicle.
2) When engine has cooled down, remove drain plug (1) from
oil pan and drain A/T fluid.
3) Install drain plug.

INSTALLATION
1) Install shift solenoid valves.
Tightening torque
Solenoid valve bolts (a) : 8 N·m (0.8 kg-m, 6.0 lb-ft)
2) Connect shift solenoid couplers.
3) Install oil strainer (2) and transmission temperature sensor
(1).
Tightening torque
Transmission temperature sensor bolt
(b) : 10 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 7.5 lb-ft)
4) Connect transmission temperature sensor coupler (3).
5) Clean mating surface of A/T oil pan (1) and A/T case.
6) Install new gasket (2) to A/T oil pan.
7) Install A/T oil pan.
Tightening torque
A/T oil pan bolts (a) : 7.5 N·m (0.75 kg-m, 5.5 lb-ft)
8) Install A/T fluid drain bolt.
Tightening torque
A/T fluid drain bolt (b) : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 16.5 lb-ft)
9) Refill A/T fluid referring to “FLUID CHANGE” in this section.
10) Verify that there is no A/T fluid leakage.
NOTE:
Do not forget to install O-ring (4) to oil strainer first.
