Precautions for Installing Mobile
Communication Equipment
When installing mobile communication equipment such
as CB (Citizens-Band)-radio or cellular-telephone, be
sure to observe the following precautions.
Failure to follow cautions may adversely affect electronic
control system.
• Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the
vehicle's electronic control unit.
• Keep the antenna feeder more than 20 cm (7.9 in.)
away from electronic control unit and its wire
harnesses.
• Do not run the antenna feeder parallel with other wire
harnesses.
• Confirm that the antenna and feeder are correctly
adjusted.

Air Bag Warning

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, Wiring
and Connectors Location: in Section 8B"
in order to confirm whether you are
performing service on or near the air bag
system components or wiring. Please
observe all "WARNING"s and "Precautions
on Service and Diagnosis of Air Bag
System: in Section 8B" before performing
service on or around the air bag system
components or wiring. Failure to follow
"WARNING"s 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).

Discharge Headlight Warning

WARNING
S5JB0A0000004
!
When performing service on and around the
discharge headlight, observe "Precautions
for Discharge Headlight Service (If
Equipped): in Section 9B". Neglecting the
warnings may result in personal injury.

A/C System Caution

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 CFC-
12 (R-12) and the other using refrigerant HFC-
134a (R-134a).
S5JB0A0000007
Be sure to check which refrigerant is used
before any service work including inspection
and maintenance. For identification between
these two types, refer to "A/C Refrigerant
Type Description: in Section 7B".
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.

Fastener Caution

CAUTION
!
When fasteners are removed, always reinstall
them at the same location from which they
were removed. If a fastener needs to be
replaced, use the correct part number
fastener for that application. If the correct
part number fastener is not available, a
fastener of equal size and strength (or
stronger) may be used. Fasteners that are not
reused, and those requiring thread-locking
compound, will be called out. The correct
torque value must be used when installing
fasteners that require it. If the above
procedures are not followed, parts or system
damage could result.
