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

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 HFC-134a (R-134a) and the other using refrigerant CFC-12 (R-12).
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 basic servicing method of the air conditioning system that is not described in this section, refer to
AIR CONDITIONING BASIC MANUAL (Part number: 99520-02130).

Refrigerant Recovery, Evacuating and Charging
Operation Procedure for Refrigerant Charging
WARNING:
 Your eyes should not be exposed to refrigerant (liquid).
Any liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) escaping by accident shows a temperature as low as approximately
–6 °C (21 °F) below freezing point. Should liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) get into your eyes, it may cause
a serious injury. To protect your eyes against such accident, it is necessary to always wear gog-
gles. Should it occur that HFC-134a (R-134a) strikes your eyes(s), consult a doctor immediately.
– Do not use your hand to rub the affected eye(s). Instead, use quantities of fresh cold water to
splash it over the affected area to gradually raise temperature of such area above freezing point.
– Obtain proper treatment as soon as possible from a doctor or eye specialist.
 Should the HFC-134a (R-134a) liquid come into contact with your skin, the affected area should be
treated in the same manner as when skin is frostbitten or frozen.
 Refrigerant must not be handled near where welding or steam cleaning is performed.
 Refrigerant should be kept at a cold and dark place. It should never be stored where a high temper-
ature is anticipated, e.g. where exposed to direct sun light, close to fire or inside vehicle (including
trunk room).
 Avoid breathing fumes produced when HFC-134a (R-134a) is burned. Such fumes may be hazardous
to health.

procedure to replace refrigerant container with a new refrig-
erant 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 the following proce-
dure 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).
c) Purge any air existing in center charging hose
When using refrigerant container tap valve, use the follow-
ing procedure to purge air.
i) Once fully tighten refrigerant container tap valve (1), and
then loosen (open) plate nut (2) slightly.
ii) Open low pressure side valve (3) of manifold gauge set
(4) a little.
iii) As soon as refrigerant comes out with a “hiss” through a
clearance between refrigerant container and tap valve,
tighten plate nut (2) as well as low pressure side valve (3).
iv) Turn handle of tap valve (1) clockwise so that its needle is
screwed into the new container to make a hole for refriger-
ant flow. WARNING:
Make sure that high pressure side valve is closed
securely.
