General Precautions
The WARNING and CAUTION below describe some general precautions that you should observe when servic-
ing a vehicle. These general precautions apply to many of the service procedures described in this manual, and
they will not necessarily be repeated with each procedure to which they apply.
Before starting any service work, cover fenders, seats
and any other parts that are likely to get scratched or
stained during servicing. Also, be aware that what you
wear (e.g, buttons) may cause damage to the vehicle’s
finish.
When performing service to electrical parts that does
not require use of battery power, disconnect the nega-
tive cable of the battery. WARNING:
Whenever raising a vehicle for service, be sure to follow the instructions under “Vehicle Lifting
Points” in this section.
When it is necessary to do service work with the engine running, make sure that the parking brake
is set fully and the transmission is in Neutral (for manual transmission vehicles) or Park (for auto-
matic transmission vehicles), Keep hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away from the fan and belts
when the engine is running.
When it is necessary to run the engine indoors, make sure that the exhaust gas is forced outdoors.
Do not perform service work in areas where combustible materials can come in contact with a hot
exhaust system. When working with toxic or flammable materials (such as gasoline and refriger-
ant), make sure that the area you work in is well-ventilated.
To avoid getting burned, keep away from hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust manifold,
tailpipe, muffler, etc.
New and used engine oil can be hazardous. Children and pets may be harmed by swallowing new or
used oil. Keep new and used oil and used engine oil filters away from children and pets.
Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to cause [skin] cancer in laboratory ani-
mals. Brief contact with used oil may irritate skin. To minimize your exposure to used engine oil,
wear a long-sleeve shirt and moisture-proof gloves (such as dish washing gloves) when changing
engine oil. If engine oil contacts your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water. Launder any
clothing or rags if wet with oil, recycle or properly dispose of used oil and filters.
Make sure the bonnet is fully closed and latched before driving. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly
during driving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.

WATER PUMP AND GENERATOR DRIVE BELT INSPEC-
TION
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Inspect belt for cracks, cuts, deformation, wear and cleanli-
ness. If any defect exists, replace.
Check belt for tension.
Water pump and generator belt tension
“a”: 4.5 – 5.5 mm (0.18 – 0.22 in.) deflection under 100 N
(10 kg, 22 lb) pressure
3) If belt is too tight or too loose, adjust it to specification by
adjusting alternator position.
4) Tighten alternator adjusting bolts and pivot bolt.
5) Connect negative cable to battery.
REPLACEMENT
Replace belt. Refer to “Water Pump Belt and Cooling Fan” in Sec-
tion 6B for replacement procedure of pump belt.
POWER STEERING PUMP AND/OR A/C COMPRESSOR
DRIVE BELTS INSPECTION (IF EQUIPPED)
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Inspect belt for cracks, cuts, deformation, wear and cleanli-
ness. If any defect exists, replace. WARNING:
All inspection and replacement are to be performed with
ENGINE NOT RUNNING.
NOTE:
When replacing belt with a new one, adjust belt tension
to 3 – 4 mm (0.12 – 0.16 in.).

GEARSHIFT OR SELECTOR LEVER (TRANSMISSION)
Check gear shift or selector lever for smooth shifting to all positions and for good performance of transmission in
any position.
With automatic transmission equipped vehicle, also check that shift indicator indicates properly according to
which position selector lever is shifted to.
With automatic transmission equipped vehicle, make sure that vehicle is at complete stop when shifting selector
lever to “P” range position and release all brakes.
BRAKE
Foot Brake
Check the following:
that brake pedal has proper travel,
that brake works properly,
that it is free from noise,
that braking force is applied equally on all wheels,
and that brake do not drag.
Parking Brake
Check that lever has proper travel.
Check to ensure that parking brake is fully effective when the vehicle is stopped on the safe slope and brake
lever is pulled all the way.
STEERING
Check to ensure that steering wheel is free from instability, or abnormally heavy feeling.
Check that the vehicle does not wander or pull to one side.
ENGINE
Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.
Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration.
BODY, WHEELS AND POWER TRANSMITTING SYSTEM
Check that body, wheels and power transmitting system are free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration or
any other abnormal condition.
METERS AND GAUGE
Check that speedometer, odometer, fuel meter, temperature gauge, etc. are operating accurately.
LIGHTS
Check that all lights operate properly.
WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER
Periodically check that air comes out from defroster outlet when operating heater or air conditioning.
Set mode control lever to defroster position and fan switch lever to “HI” position for this check. WARNING:
With vehicle parked on a fairly steep slope, make sure nothing is in the way downhill to avoid any per-
sonal injury or property damage. Be prepared to apply regular brake quickly even if vehicle should
start to move.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplement 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 Section 10B in order to confirm whether you are performing service on or
near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precau-
tions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in Section 10B before performing service on or around the air
bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional activa-
tion 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
“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).
NOTE:
The link mechanism of the heater varies depending on the specifications.
