IGNITION KEY
The ignition key for the immobilizer control system has a built-in
transponder. Each transponder in the key has an each transmitting
code (Transponder code). The code will transmitted from the key
via the coil antenna to Immobilizer Control Module when the ignition
switch is turned ON.
COIL ANTENNA
The coil antenna is installed to the steering lock assembly. As it is
energized by Immobilizer Control Module, it transmits the trans-
ponder code of the ignition key to Immobilizer Control Module.

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).

When body servicing, if shock may be applied to air bag system component parts, remove those parts
beforehand. (Refer to Section 10B.)
NOTE:
Fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital components and
systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of the same part
number of with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary.
Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute a design. Torque values must be used as spe-
cified during reassembly to assure proper retention of these parts.

When the welding or heating operation causes the
original galvanization or other anticorrosive materials
to be burnt, the interior and under-body panel sur-
faces must be cleaned.
Removal of residues of the burning should be carried
out carefully when the relevant place has boxtype
construction or has shape which limits the access to
the interior surfaces. In general, the following method
can be used satisfactorily for the removal of those res-
idues.Scrape the accessible places. If a standard putty knife
or scraper does not fit to the elevant place, consider
to use a more flexible scraper to a place narrowly en-
closed by sheet metals.
A jet of compressed air can remove most residues,
and is effective to limited areas.
However, this type of operation absolutely requires
eye protection.
BODY SERVICE 9-37
The metal service replacement parts (or assemblies)
are coated with electro-deposition primer.
For the proper adhesion of a paint, the following finish
process (refinish steps) becomes necessary.
1) Use wax or grease-removing solvent to clean the
part.
2) Use a wet or dry sand-paper (No. 400) to polish the
panel lightly. Do not polish it forcibly to produce any
scratch. Clean the part again.
3) If factory-applied primer coating is cut through to
the bare metal, apply metal conditioner to the bare
metal exposed to open air. As for method of use of
the metal conditioner, follow directions on the con-
tainer.
4) Apply primer-surfacer to the part completely dry
before starting sand-paper polishing. As for drying
time, follow directions advised on the primer-sur-
facer container.
5) Use a wet or dry sand-paper (No. 400) and water
to polish the panel lightly.
6) Wash the part again.
7) Apply color, coating to the part.
8) Different paints demand different drying methods.
Hence, follow directions advised on the pertinent
paint container.9) When lacquer coating (quick-drying paint coat-
ing) is applied, dry coated surface and polish it
with compound.
In the case of the melamine or acrylic coating,
compound polishing can be omitted after drying.
10) If the case of lacquer coating, wax should not be
applied to coated surface until the surface has
dried completely (for approx. two months).
Before replacing exterior parts or assemblies, check
paint conditions of all the covered or hidden interior
surfaces. If any rust scale is found at these places,
proceed as follows:
1) Use a proper wire brush, adhesive or liquid rust re-
moving agent to remove rust. As for the method of
use, follow directions advised for respecitve mate-
rials.
2) If necessary, wash parts with detergent, rinse, and
dry them.
3) Before installing exterior body parts, apply anticor-
rosive compound to all cleaner surfaces of exterior
body parts. Also, apply anticorrosive compound to
inner surfaces of exterior body parts to be
installed.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Seat belt with ELR
The seat belt with Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) is designed so that it locks immediately (to prevent the web-
bing from being pulled out of the retractor any further) when any of the following items is detected as exceeding
each set value; speed at which the webbing is pulled out of the retractor, acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle
speed, and inclination.
Seat belt with A-ELR
The automatic and emergency locking retractor (A-ELR) works as an Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) till its
webbing is pulled all the way out and then on as an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) till it is retracted fully.
ALR: Automatically locks when the webbing is pulled out from the retractor and allowed to retract even a little.
Then the webbing can not be pulled out any further, unless it is wound all the way back into the retractor, which
releases the lock and allows the webbing to be pulled out.
Driver and front passenger side air bags
The driver and front passenger side air bags are components of the air bag system. In occurrence of a front collision
with an impact larger than a certain set value, they are activated by the ignition signal from SDM to supplement
protection offered by the driver and front passenger seat belts.

the driver air bag (inflator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column

the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat

CAUTION:
When fasteners are removed, always reinstall them at the same location from which they were re-
moved. 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 proce-
dures are not followed, parts or system damage could result.

AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-3
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
With the air bag system which includes air bags for both the driver's
and passenger's sides as well as the seat belt pretensioners (if
equipped), the sag of the seat belt is taken up, the driver air bag (in-
flator) module is deployed from the center of the steering column
and the passenger air bag (inflator) module from the top of the
instrument panel in front of the front passenger seat in occurrence
of a front collision with an impact larger than a certain set value to
supplement protection offered by the driver and front passenger
seat belts.
The air bag system is designed to activate only in severe frontal col-
lisions. It is not designed to activate in rear impacts, side impacts,
rollovers, or minor frontal collisions, since it would offer no protec-
tion in those types of accidents.
