PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTION FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED
WITH A SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
(AIR BAG) SYSTEM
WARNING:

The configuration of air bag system parts are as shown in
the figure. When it is necessary to service (remove, rein-
stall and inspect) these parts, be sure to follow proce-
dures described in SECTION 10B. Failure to follow proper
procedures could result in possible air bag system activa-
tion, personal injury, damage to parts or air bag system
being unable to activate when necessary.

If the air bag system and another vehicle system both
need repair, SUZUKI recommends that the air bag system
be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system
activation.

Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard, or any other
air bag system components. Modifications can adversely
affect air bag system performance and lead to injury.

If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93
C
(200
F) (for example, during a paint baking process), re-
move the air bag system components beforehand to avoid
component damage or unintended air bag system activa-
tion.
DIAGNOSIS

When troubleshooting air bag system, be sure to follow
ªDIAGNOSISº in SECTION 10B. Bypassing these proce-
dures may result in extended diagnostic time, incorrect diag-
nosis, and incorrect parts replacement.

Never use electrical test equipment other than that specified
in this manual.
WARNING:
Never attempt to measure the resistance of the air bag (in-
flator) modules (driver and passenger) and seat belt preten-
tioners (driver and passenger). It is very dangerous as the
electric current from the tester may deploy the air bag or ac-
tivate the pretensioner.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 0B-19
11) Check coil spring, upper rod, lower rod and lateral rod for de-
formation and damage.
12) Check upper rod, lower rod and lateral rod bushings and bump
stopper for wear, damage and deterioration.
13) Check other suspension parts for damage, loose or missing
parts; also for parts showing signs of wear or lack of lubrication.
Replace any parts found defective in steps 1) to 13).
ITEM 6-9
Propeller Shafts and Drive Shafts Inspection
1) Check universal joint and spline of propeller shaft for rattle. If
rattle is found, replace defective part with a new one.
2) Check propeller shaft (front & rear) flange yoke bolts for tight-
ness, and retighten them as necessary.
Refer to Section 4B for tightening torque.
3) Check drive axle boots (wheel side and differential side) for
leaks, detachment, tear or other damage.
Replace boot as necessary.

WARNING:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precautionsº under ªOn-Vehicle
Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around the air bag system compo-
nents 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.

The procedures in this section must be followed in the order listed to disable the air bag system tem-
porarily and prevent false diagnostic trouble codes from setting. Failure to follow procedures could
result in possible activation of the air bag system, personal injury or otherwise unneeded air bag sys-
tem repairs.
CAUTION:
When fasteners are removed, always reinstall them at the same location from which they were re-
moved. If a fastener needs to be replaced, use the correct part number fastener for that application. If
the correct part number fastener is not available, a fastener of equal size and strength (or stronger) may
be used. Fasteners that are not reused, and those requiring thread-locking compound, will be called
out. The correct torque value must be used when installing fasteners that require it. If the above proce-
dures are not followed, parts or system damage could result.

3C1-2 AIR BAG STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This double tube type steering column has the following three important features in addition to the steering function:

The column is energy absorbing, designed to compress in a front-end collision.

The ignition switch and lock are mounted conveniently on this column.

With the column mounted lock, the ignition and steering operations can be locked to inhibit theft of the vehicle.
To insure the energy absorbing action, it is important that only the specified screws, bolts, and nuts be used as
designated and that they are tightened to the specified torque. When the column assembly is removed from the
vehicle, special care must be taken in handling it. Use of a steering wheel puller other than the one recommended
in this manual or a sharp blow on the end of the steering shaft, leaning on the assembly, or dropping the assembly
could shear the plastic shear pins which maintain column length and position.
The driver air bag (inflator) module is one of the supplemental restraint (air bag) system components and is
mounted to the center of the steering wheel. During certain frontal crashes, the air bag system supplements the
restraint of the driver's and passenger's seat belts by deploying the air bags. The air bag (inflator) module should
be handled with care to prevent accidental deployment. When servicing, be sure to observe all WARNINGS in this
section. Refer to ªSERVICE PRECAUTIONSº in Section 10B.
