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).
NOTE:
For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the same section of the Service Manual
mentioned in FOREWORD of this manual.

0B-6 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
POWER STEERING PUMP AND/OR A/C COMPRESSOR
DRIVE BELTS (IF EQUIPPED) INSPECTION
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Inspect belt for cracks, cuts, deformation, wear and cleanli-
ness. If any defect exists, replace.
Check belt for tension.
If belt tension is out of above specification, adjust it referring
to Section 1B or 3B1.
Power steering pump and/or A/C compressor
drive belt tension
“a” : 4 - 7 mm (0.16 - 0.28 in.) deflection under
100 N (10 kg, 22 lb) pressure
3) Connect negative (–) cable to battery.
POWER STEERING PUMP AND/OR A/C COMPRESSOR
DRIVE BELTS (IF EQUIPPED) REPLACEMENT
Replace belt referring to Section 1B or 3B1 for replacement pro-
cedure of belt.
ITEM 1-4
Engine oil and filter replacement
Before draining engine oil, check engine for oil leakage. If any evi-
dence of leakage is found, make sure to correct defective part
before proceeding to the following work.
[A]: H27 engine with P/S system
[B]: H27 engine with P/S and A/C system
1. Crankshaft pulley
2. P/S pump pulley
3. A/C compressor pulley (if equipped)
4. Tension pulley
5. Tension pulley bolts
WARNING:
 New and used engine oil can be hazardous.
Be sure to read “WARNING” in General Precaution in
Section 0A and observe what in written there.
 Step 1) - 7) outlined below must be performed with
ENGINE NOT RUNNING. For step 8), be sure to have
adequate ventilation while engine is running.

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-

 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).
CAUTION:
The air conditioning system of this vehicle uses refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a).
None of refrigerant, compressor oil and component parts is interchangeable between two types of
A/C: one using refrigerant CFC-12 (R-12) and the other using refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a).
Be sure to check which refrigerant is used before any service work including inspection and mainte-
nance. For identification between these two types, refer to “REFRIGERANT TYPE” in this section.
When replenishing or changing refrigerant and compressor oil and when replacing parts, make sure
that the material or the part to be used is appropriate to the A/C installed in the vehicle being serviced.
Use of incorrect one will result in leakage of refrigerant, damage in parts or other faulty condition.
NOTE:
 For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the same section of the Service Man-
ual mentioned in FOREWORD of this manual.
 For basic servicing method of the air conditioning system that is not described in this section, refer
to “AIR CONDITIONING BASIC MANUAL (99520-02130)”.
