Inspection
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Inspect belt for cracks, cuts, deformation, wear and cleanliness.
If any defect exists, replace.
Check belt for tension.
Water pump and generator belt tension
ªaº: 6 ± 8 mm (0.24 ± 0.32 in.) deflection for G16, 9 ± 11 mm
(0.35 ± 0.43 in.) deflection for H25 under 100 N, 10 kg or
22 lb pressure
NOTE:
When replacing belt with a new one, adjust belt tension to
5 ± 6 mm (0.20 ± 0.24 in.) for G16, 7 ± 9 mm (0.28 ± 0.35 in.)
for H25.
3) If belt is too tight or too loose, adjust it to specification by adjust-
ing alternator position.
4) Tighten alternator adjusting bolt and pivot bolts.
5) Connect negative cable to battery.

4. Arrow mark
5. Reservoir cap
546) Add coolant to reservoir so that its level aligns with Full mark.
Then, reinstall cap aligning arrow marks on reservoir and cap.
NOTE:
When installing reservoir cap, align arrow marks on reser-
voir and cap.
CAUTION:
When changing engine coolant, use mixture of 50% wa-
ter and 50% ANTIFREEZE / ANTICORROSION COOLANT
for the market where ambient temperature falls lower
than ±16C (3F) in winter, and mixture of 70% water and
30% ANTIFREEZE / ANTICORROSION COOLANT for the
market where ambient temperature doesn't fall lower
than ±16C (3F).
Even in a market where no freezing temperature is antici-
pated, mixture of 70% water and 30% ANTIFREEZE / AN-
TICORROSION COOLANT should be used for the pur-
pose of corrosion protection and lubrication.
ITEM 1-6
Exhaust System Inspection
WARING:
To avoid danger of being burned, do not touch exhaust sys-
tem when it is still hot. Any service on exhaust system
should be performed when it is cool.
When carrying out periodic maintenance, or the vehicle is raised for
other service, check exhaust system as follows:

Check rubber mountings for damage, deterioration, and out of
position.

Check exhaust system for leakage, loose connections, dents and
damages.
If bolts or nuts are loose, tighten them to specification.

Check nearby body areas for damaged, missing, or misposi-
tioned parts, open seams, holes, loose connections or other de-
fects which could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the vehicle.

Make sure that exhaust system components have enough clear-
ance from the underbody to avoid overheating and possible dam-
age to the floor carpet.

Any defects should be fixed at once.

Clutch
Pedal inspection
Check clutch pedal for height and free travel referring to Section
7C1. Adjust or correct if necessary.
Fluid inspection
1) Check around master cylinder and reservoir for fluid leakage.
If found leaky, correct.
2) Check fluid level.
If fluid level is lower than the minimum level of reservoir, refilling
is necessary. Fill reservoir with specified brake fluid indicated on
clutch reservoir cap.
For the details, refer to On-vehicle service in Section 7C1.
CAUTION:
Since clutch system of this vehicle is factory-filled with
glycol-base brake fluid, do not use or mix different type
of fluid when refilling system; otherwise serious damage
will occur. Do not use old or used brake fluid, or one taken
from unsealed container.
ITEM 6-2
Brake Discs, Pads, Brake Drums and Shoes Inspection
[Brake discs and pads]
1) Remove wheel and caliper but don't disconnect brake hose from
caliper.
2) Check front disc brake pads and discs for excessive wear, dam-
age and deflection. Replace parts as necessary. For details, re-
fer to Section 5B.
Be sure to torque caliper pin bolts to specification.
[Brake drums and shoes]
1) Remove wheel and brake drum.
2) Check rear brake drums and brake linings for excessive wear
and damage, while wheels and drums are removed. At the same
time, check wheel cylinders for leaks. Replace these parts as
necessary.
For details, refer to Section 5C.

to hole when level plug is removed, oil is properly filled.
If oil is found insufficient, pour specified amount of specified oil.
5) Tighten level plug to specified torque.
Refer to Section 7A or 7A1 for installation and tightening torque.
Change
Change transmission oil with new specified oil referring to Section
7A or 7A1.
ITEM 6-11
Automatic Transmission Fluid Inspection and Change

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 or 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
