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
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).

General Description
Battery
The battery has three major functions in the electrical system.
It is a source of electrical energy for cranking the engine.
It acts as a voltage stabilizer for the electrical system.
It can, for a limited time, provide energy when the electrical
load exceeds the output of the generator.
CARRIER AND HOLD-DOWN
The battery carrier should be in good condition so that it will sup-
port the battery securely and keep it level.
Before installing the battery, the battery carrier and hold-down
clamp should be clean and free from corrosion and make certain
there are no parts in carrier.
To prevent the battery from shaking in its carrier, the hold-down
bolts should be tight enough but not over-tightened.
ELECTROLYTE FREEZING
The freezing point of electrolyte depends on its specific gravity.
Since freezing may ruin a battery, it should be protected against
freezing by keeping it in a fully charged condition. If a battery is
frozen accidentally, it should not be charged until it is warmed.
SULFATION
If the battery is allowed to stand for a long period in discharged
condition, the lead sulfate becomes converted into a hard, crystal-
line substance, which will not easily turn back to the active mate-
rial again during the subsequent recharging. “Sulfation” means
the result as well as the process of that reaction.
Such a battery can be revived by very slow charging and may be
restored to usable condition but its capacity is lower than before.

UNDERCHARGED BATTERY
This condition, as evidenced by slow cranking or indicator clear
with red dot can be caused by one or more of the following condi-
tions even though indicator lamp may be operating normal.
Following procedure also applies to cars with voltmeter and
ammeter.
1) Make sure that undercharged condition has not been caused
by accessories left on for extended period of time.
2) Check drive belt for proper tension.
3) If battery defect is suspected, refer to BATTERY section.
4) Inspect wiring for defects. Check all connections for tight-
ness and cleanliness, battery cable connections at battery,
starting motor and ignition ground cable.
5) Connect voltmeter and ammeter as shown in the figure.
6) Measure current and voltage.
No-load Check
1) Run engine from idling up to 2,000 rpm and read meters.
Standard current
10 A maximum
Standard voltage
14.4 – 15.0 V (at 20 °C, 68 °F)
Higher Voltage
If voltage is higher than standard value, check ground of brushes.
If brushes are not grounded, replace IC regulator.
Lower Voltage
If voltage is below or in standard value, increase engine speed up
to 2,000 – 2,500 rpm soon after starting engine, and read maxi-
mum value on ammeter immediately.
If current is less than 49 A, repair or replace generator.NOTE:
Use fully charged battery.
1. Generator
2. Ammeter (between generator (B) terminal and battery (+) terminal)
3. Voltmeter (between generator (B) terminal and ground)
4. Battery
5. Load
6. Switch
NOTE:
Turn off switches of all accessories (wiper, heater etc.).
NOTE:
Consideration should be taken that voltage will differ
somewhat with regulator case temperature as shown in
the graph.

2) Ground F terminal and start engine, then measure voltage at
B terminal as shown in left figure.
Voltage is higher than standard value
It is considered that generator itself is good but IC regulator
has been damaged, replace IC regulator.
Voltage is lower than standard value
Generator itself has problem, check the generator.
Load Check
1) Run engine at 2,000 rpm and turn on head light and heater
motor.
2) Measure current and if it is less than 20 A repair or replace
generator.
OVERCHARGED BATTERY
1) To determine battery condition, refer to Battery section.
2) If obvious overcharged condition exists as evidenced by
excessive spewing of electrolyte, measure generator B ter-
minal voltage at engine 2,000 rpm.
3) If measured voltage is higher than upper limit value, proceed
to disassembly section of generator service.
4) Check ground of brushes. If brushes are not grounded,
replace IC regulator. Then check field coil for grounds and
shorts, referring to “INSPECTION” section.
On-Vehicle Service
Battery
Jump starting in case of emergency
WITH AUXILIARY (BOOSTER) BATTERY
Both booster and discharged battery should be treated carefully
when using jumper cables. Follow procedure outlined below,
being careful not to cause sparks.
CAUTION:
If vehicle is manual transmission model and has a cata-
lytic converter, do not push or tow it to start. Damage to
its emission system and/or to other parts may result.

1) Set parking brake and place automatic transmission in
PARK (NEUTRAL on manual transmission). Turn off ignition,
turn off lights and all other electrical loads.
2) Check electrolyte level. If it is below low level line, add dis-
tilled water.
3) Attach end of one jumper cable to positive terminal of
booster battery and the other end of the same cable to posi-
tive terminal of discharged battery. (Use 12-volt battery only
to jump start engine).
4) Attach one end of the remaining negative cable to negative
terminal of booster battery, and the other end to a solid
engine ground (such as exhaust manifold) at least 45 cm (18
in.) away from battery of vehicle being started.
5) Start engine of vehicle with booster battery and turn off elec-
trical accessories. Then start engine of the vehicle with dis-
charged battery.
6) Disconnect jumper cables in the exact reverse order.
WITH CHARGING EQUIPMENT
WARNING:
Departure from these conditions or procedure
described below could result in:
–Serious personal injury (particularly to eyes) or
property damage from such causes as battery explo-
sion, battery acid, or electrical burns.
–Damage to electronic components of either vehicle.
Remove rings, watches, and other jewelry. Wear
approved eye protection.
Be careful so that metal tools or jumper cables do not
contact positive battery terminal (or metal in contact
with it) and any other metal on vehicle, because a short
circuit could occur.
WARNING:
Do not connect negative cable directly to negative termi-
nal of dead battery.
CAUTION:
When jump starting engine with charging equipment, be
sure equipment used is 12-volt and negative ground. Do
not use 24-volt charging equipment. Using such equip-
ment can cause serious damage to electrical system or
electronic parts.
