pulley (3) with about 100 N (10 kg) force after rotating
crankshaft pulley 360 °. If belt tension is out of
specification, adjust belt tension referring to
“Adjustment”.

“a”
: 7 – 8mm (0.28 – 0.31 in.)
NOTE
When replacing drive belt, adjust drive belt
tension to the following specification.
New compressor dr ive belt tension “a”
: 6 – 7mm (0.24 – 0.28 in.)
Adjustment 1) Loosen tension pulley nut (4).
2) Adjust belt tension by ti ghten or loosen tension
pulley adjusting bolt (5).
3) Tighten tension pulley nut.
4) Rotate the crankshaft pulley 360 °, and then recheck

Current DTC mode1) Light over sunload sensor vertically with an incandescent lamp of approximately 100 W apart
from about 100 mm (3.94 in.).
NOTE
If sunload sensor is not lighted over with an
incandescent lamp, DTC B1504 is detected
as current DTC even though there is not any
malfunction.
2) Start engine.
3) Wait for 20 seconds or more after engine started and set temperature selector to 25 °C (77 °F).
4) Push AUTO switch (1) and defroster switch (2) at the same time.
5) Check DTC (3).
NOTE
• DTC flashes for 15 seconds. After that, the normal display is rest ored. To have DTC
displayed again, repeat the procedure from
Step 4.
• When more than two DTCs are detected, only DTC having the highest priority is
indicated. Therefore, after troubleshooting
the malfunction, DTC check has to be
performed again to see if any other DTC(s)
is detected.
History DTC mode
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
2) Set temperature selector to 25 °C (77 °F).
3) Push AUTO switch (1) and MODE (air flow) selector
(2) at the same time.
4) Check DTC (4).
NOTE
Each DTC item is displayed (lights up) for 4
seconds.
When HVAC control module detects 2 or
more DTC items, each one is displayed once
starting from the one of higher priority order.
After all DTC items being detected have been
displayed, “Ed” (3) appears on display of
HVAC control module and normal display is
restored. “Ed” means that all DTC items have
been displayed.
DTC ClearanceS7RS0B7224004
NOTE
Only history DTC(s) can be cleared. Current
DTC(s) can not be cleared unless the
problem(s) is fixed.
Using SUZUKI Scan tool
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
2) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to data link connector (DLC) (1) located on underside of instrument panel
at driver’s seat side.
