1B-10 AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
Performance Diagnosis
1) Confirm that vehicle and environmental conditions are as fol-
lows.
Vehicle is not exposed to direct sun.
Ambient temperature is within 15 - 35 °C (59 - 95 °F).
2) Make sure that high pressure valve (1) and low pressure
valve (2) of manifold gauge (3) are firmly closed.
3) Connect high pressure charging hose (4) to high pressure
service valve (5) on vehicle, and connect low pressure
charging hose (6) to low pressure service valve (7) on vehi-
cle.
4) Bleed the air in charging hoses (3), (4) by loosening their
respective nuts on manifold gauge, utilizing the refrigerant
pressure. When a hiss is heard, immediately tighten nut.
5) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature (engine
coolant temperature at 80 - 90 °C (176 - 194 °F)) and keep it
at specified idle speed.
6) Operate A/C at the following conditions.
Main (front) A/C switch at ON position.
Rear A/C main switch at ON position (if equipped).
Front blower motor switch at max position.
Rear blower motor switch at max position (if equipped).
Air outlet control button at face position.
Temperature control lever at max cool position.
Vehicle door at all open.
Air inlet door at recirculation position.
7) Keep all windows, doors and engine food open.
8) With about 20 mm (0.8 in.) of dry bulb thermometer (1)
inserted into center face air outlet (2), rear A/C air outlet (3)
(dual A/C model only) and near A/C evaporator air inlet, read
temperature indicated on each thermometer. CAUTION:
Do not interchange high and low pressure charging
hoses by mistake.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-23
The initial charging of the A/C system is performed from the high-
pressure side with the engine stopped.
And next, this method must be followed by charging from the low-
pressure side with the engine running.
1) Check to make sure that hoses are routed properly after
evacuating the system.
2) Connect Low-side hose (1) and High side hose (2) of the
manifold gauge set (3) in position. Thus open refrigerant
container valve (4) to purge the charging line.
3) Open the high-pressure side valve (6) and charge refrigerant
to system.
4) After a while, open the low-pressure side valve (5) and close
the high-pressure side valve (6).
5) Start engine and keep engine speed at 1500 rpm. Then,
operate air conditioning.
6) Charge A/C system with refrigerant in vapor state. At this
time, refrigerant container should be held upright.
7) When refrigerant container (3) is emptied, the use following
procedure to replace it with a new refrigerant container (3).
a) Close low pressure valve.
b) Replace empty container (3) with a refrigerant container
which has been charged with refrigerant. When using
refrigerant container tap valve (4), use following procedure
for replacement.
i) Retract needle (1) and remove refrigerant container tap
valve (4) by loosening its plate nut (2).
ii) Install previously-removed refrigerant container tap valve
(4) to a new refrigerant container (3). WARNING:
Make sure that high pressure-side valve is closed
securely.
NOTE:
Dual A/C model must be operated rear A/C system, too.

5) Check relief pressure.
a) Increase engine speed to about 1500 r/min (rpm). Close
gauge valve gradually while watching pressure increase
indicated by gauge and take reading of relief pressure
(maximum hydraulic pressure).
When it is higher than specified values, possible cause is
malfunction of relief valve.
When it is lower than specified values, possible cause is
either failure of P/S pump or settling of relief valve spring.
Relief pressure (when gauge valve is closed) :
7650 – 8350 kPa (76.5 – 83.5 kg/cm
2, 1088 – 1187 psi)
b) Next, open gauge valve fully and increase engine speed to
about 1500 r/min (rpm). Then turn steering wheel to the left
or right fully and take reading of relief pressure.
When it is higher than specified values, possible cause is
malfunction of relief valve.
When it is lower than specified values, possible cause is
failure in steering gear box. Replace gear box.
Relief pressure (when gauge valve is opened) :
7650– 8350 kPa (76.5 – 83.5 kg/cm
2, 1088 – 1187 psi) CAUTION:
Be sure not to close gauge valve for longer than 10 sec-
onds.

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 Section 5E1 of the Service Manual
mentioned in the FOREWORD of this manual.
All brake fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital
parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of
same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified
during reassembly to assure proper retention of all parts. There is to be no welding as it may result
in extensive damage and weakening of the metal.
