Important WARNING/CAUTION/NOTE Please read this manual and follow its instructions carefully. To emphasize special information, the words WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE have special meanings. Pay special attention to the messages highlighted by these signal words. The circle with a slash in this manual means “Don’t do this” or “Don’t let this happen”. WARNING: Indicates a potential hazard that could result in death or injury. CAUTION: Indicates a potential hazard that could result in vehicle damage. NOTE: Indicates special information to make maintenance easier or instructions clearer. WARNING: This service manual is intended for authorized SUZUKI dealers and qualified service mechanics only. Inexperienced mechanics or mechanics without the proper tools and equipment may not be able to properly perform the services described in this manual. Improper repair may result in injury to the mechanic and may render the vehicle unsafe for the driver and passengers. WARNING: For vehicles equipped with a 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 service on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service 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. • If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, SUZUKI recommends that the air bag system be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system activation. • Do not modify the steering wheel, instrument panel or any other air bag system component (on or around air bag system components or wiring). Modifications can adversely affect air bag system performance and lead to injury. • If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93°C (200°F) (for example, during a paint baking process), remove the air bag system components (air bag (inflator) module, sensing and diagnostic module (SDM), seat belt pretensioner (if equipped) beforehand to avoid component damage or unin- tended activation.

GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-3 Precautions Precaution for Vehicles Equipped with a Sup- plemental Restraint (Air Bag) System Diagnosis • When troubleshooting air bag system, be sure to follow “Diagnosis” in Section 10B. Bypassing these procedures may result in extended diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and incorrect parts replacement. • Never use electrical test equipment other than that specified in this manual. WARNING: • The configuration of air bag system parts are as shown in the figure. When it is necessary to service (remove, reinstall and inspect) these parts, be sure to follow procedures described in Section 10B. Failure to follow proper procedures could result in possible air bag sys- tem activation, personal injury, damage to parts or air bag system being unable to activate when necessary. • If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, SUZUKI recommends that the air bag sys- tem be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system activation. • Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard, or any other air bag system components. Modifications can adversely affect air bag system performance and lead to injury. • If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93°C (200°F) (for example, during a paint baking pro- cess), remove the air bag system components before- hand to avoid component damage or unintended air bag system activation. 1. Air bag wire harness 6. Driver air bag (inflator) module 2. Passenger air bag (inflator) module 7. Seat belt pretensioner (if equipped) 3. SDM [A] : Other than canvas top model 4. DLC [B] : Canvas top model 5. Contact coil WARNING: Never attempt to measure the resistance of the air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger) and seat belt pretentioners (driver and passenger). It is very danger- ous as the electric current from the tester may deploy the air bag or activate the pretensioner.
0A-4 GENERAL INFORMATION Servicing and Handling WARNING: Many of service procedures require disconnection of “Air Bag” fuse and all air bag (inflator) module(s) from initia- tor circuit to avoid an accidental deployment. Driver and Passenger Air Bag (Inflator) Modules • For handling and storage of a live air bag (inflator) module, select a place where the ambient temperature below 65°C (150°F), without high humidity and away from electric noise. • When carrying a live air bag (inflator) module, make sure the bag opening is pointed away from you. In case of an accidental deployment, the bag will then deploy with minimal chance of injury. Never carry the air bag (inflator) module by the wires or connector on the underside of the module. When placing a live air bag (inflator) module on a bench or other surface, always face the bag up, away from the surface. As the live pas- senger air bag (inflator) module must be placed with its bag (trim cover) facing up, place it on the workbench with a slit or use the workbench vise to hold it securely at its lower mounting bracket. This is necessary so that a free space is provided to allow the air bag to expand in the unlikely event of accidental deployment. Otherwise, personal injury may result. • Never dispose of live (undeployed) air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger). If disposal is neces- sary, be sure to deploy them according to deployment procedures described in Section 10B before disposal. • The air bag (inflator) module immediately after deploy- ment is very hot. Wait for at least half an hour to cool it off before proceeding the work. • After an air bag (inflator) module has been deployed, the surface of the air bag may contain a powdery resi- due. This powder consists primarily of cornstarch (used to lubricate the bag as it inflates) and by-prod- ucts of the chemical reaction. As with many service procedures, gloves and safety glasses should be worn. [A] : ALWAYS CARRY AIR BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE WITH TRIM COVER (AIR BAG OPENING) AWAY FROM BODY. [B] : ALWAYS PLACE AIR BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE ON WORKBENCH WITH TRIM COVER (AIR BAG OPENING) UP, AWAY FROM LOOSE OBJECTS. 1. Slit on workbench 2. Workbench vise 3. Lower mounting bracket [A] [B] 2 3 1
GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-5 WARNING: SDM • During service procedures, be very careful when han- dling a Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM). Never strike or jar the SDM. Never power up the air bag system when the SDM is not rigidly attached to the vehicle. All SDM and mount- ing bracket fasteners must be carefully torqued and the arrow must be pointing toward the front of the vehi- cle to ensure proper operation of the air bag system. The SDM could be activated when powered while not rigidly attached to the vehicle which could cause deployment and result in personal injury. WARNING: Driver and Passenger Seat Belt Pretensioners • For handling and storage of a live seat belt preten- sioner, select a place where the ambient temperature below 65°C (150°F), without high humidity and away from electric noise. • Never carry seat belt pretensioner by wire or connector of pretensioner. When placing a live seat belt preten- sioner on the workbench or some place like that, be sure not to lay it with its exhaust hole provided side facing down. It is also prohibited to put something on its face with an exhaust hole or to put a seat belt pre- tensioner on top of another. Otherwise, personal injury may result. • Never dispose of live (inactivated) seat belt pretension- ers (driver and passenger). If disposal is necessary, be sure to activate them according to activation proce- dures described in Section 10B before disposal. • The seat belt pretensioner immediately after activation is very hot. Wait for at least half an hour to cool it off before proceeding the work. • With many service procedures, gloves and safety glasses should be worn to prevent any possible irrita- tion of the skin or eyes. 1.
