SECTION 1B
AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL)
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 ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº 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 ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº 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.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº 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).
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).
Be sure to check which refrigerant is used before any service work including inspection and mainte-
nance. For identification between these two types, refer to the description in page 1B-2.
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.
For basic servicing method of the air conditioning system that is not described in this section, refer to AIR CONDI-
TIONING BASIC MANUAL (99520-02130).

A / C CONDENSER ASSEMBLY
INSPECTION
Check
a) condenser fins for blockage
b) condenser fittings for leakage
c) condenser fins for damage
Clogged condenser fins should be washed with water, and should
be dried with compressed air.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage condenser fins. If condenser fin is
bent, straighten it by using a screwdriver or pair of pliers. If
any leakage is found from fitting or tube, repair or replace
condenser.
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative (±) cable at battery.
2) Recover refrigerant by using recovery and recycling equipment.
Be sure to follow the instruction manual for the equipment.
The amount of compressor oil removed must be measured and
the same amount added to the system.
3) Remove front bumper assembly and remove lower stay (1) if
equipped (Refer to Section 9 ªBODY SERVICEº).
4) Disconnect compressor discharge hose (1) from condenser in-
let fittings.
CAUTION:
As soon as above hose and pipe are disconnected, cap
opened fittings so that moisture and dust do not enter
condenser.
