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
autho-rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to "Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View" under
"Gener-al 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 Precau-tions" under "On-Vehicle Service" in air bag system section before performing ser-
vice 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).
• Do not removal all of the wheel bolts at once, because all the wheels of this vehicle are mounted by
the wheel bolts.
Leave a bolt at least not to drop the wheel.
Support the wheel and/or tire and then remove the bolt(s) left with the wheel.
NOTE:
• All steering gear fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of
vital parts and systems, and/ or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with
one of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not
use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as speci-
fied during reassembly to assure proper retention of these parts.
• For discriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the same section of the Service Manual
