SECTION 1B
AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
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 ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº 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 ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº 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
ªLOCKº 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 the description in page 1B-2.
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.
For basic servicing method of the air conditioning system that is not described in this section, refer to AIR CONDI-
TIONING BASIC MANUAL (99520-02130).

REMOVING MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
When A / C system has been charged with a specified amount of re-
frigerant, remove manifold gauge set as follows:
1) Close low pressure-side valve of manifold gauge set, (The high
pressure-side valve is closed continuously during the process
of charging.).
2) Close refrigerant container valve.
3) Stop engine.
4) Using shop rag, remove charging hoses from service valves.
This operation must be performed rapidly.
WARNING:
High pressure-side is naturally under high pressure.
So, care must be used to protect your eyes and skin.
5) Put caps on service valves.
LEAK-TESTING REFRIGERANT SYSTEM
Whenever a refrigerant leak is suspected in the system or any ser-
vice operation has been performed which may result in disturbing
lines or connections, it is advisable to test for leaks.
Common sense should be used in performing any refrigerant leak
test, since the need and extent of any such test will, in general, de-
pend upon the nature of a complaint and the type of a service per-
formed on the system.
LIQUID LEAK DETECTORS
There are a number of fittings and places throughout the air condi-
tioning system where a liquid leak detector solution may be used
to pinpoint refrigerant leaks.
By merely applying the solution to the area in question with a swab,
bubbles will form within seconds if there is a leak.
For confined areas, such as sections of the evaporator and con-
denser, an electronic (gas) leak detector is more practical for deter-
mining leaks.
WARNING:

To prevent explosions or fires, make sure that there are no
flammables in the vicinity.

When exposed to fire, the refrigerant turns into a poison-
ous gas (phosgene). Do not inhale this gas.
