1A-2 HEATER AND VENTILATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The heater, an in and out air selectable-type hot water heater, is so constructed that it is possible to assure an
agreeable ventilation at all times by providing the ventilator air outlets at the center and both sides (right and left)
of the instrument panel, the hot air outlet at a place close to the feet of front passengers, and the defroster air outlets
at places, right and left, along the windshield glass.
The heater and ventilation consist of following parts.

REMOVAL
WARNING:
Failure to follow the following procedure and WARNING
may cause air bag deployment, personal injury, damage to
parts, or air bag being unable to deploy.

Never rest a steering column assembly on steering wheel
with air bag (inflator) module face down and column verti-
cal.

When handling the air bag (inflator) modules (driver and
passenger), be careful not to drop it or apply an impact to
it. If an excessive impact was applied (e.g., dropped from
a height of 91.4 cm (3 feet) or more, never attempt disas-
sembly or repair but replace it with a new one.

When grease, cleaning agent. Oil, water, etc. has got onto
air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger), wipe off
immediately with a dry cloth.
1) Disconnect negative (±) cable at battery.
2) Disable air bag system, if equipped. Refer to DISABLING AIR
BAG SYSTEM in Section 10B.
3) Drain engine coolant and disconnect heater hose (1) from
heater unit.
4) Remove instrument panel, refer to item INSTRUMENT PANEL
REMOVAL in Section 9.
5) Remove cooling unit (If equipped).
Refer to item EVAPORATOR (COOLING UNIT) REMOVAL in
Section 1B.
6) Disconnect rear duct (4) from heater unit.
7) Disconnect heater mode control actuator lead wire (1) at cou-
plers.
8) Remove A / C controller (2) (If equipped).
9) Remove SDM (3) (If equipped).
10) Remove heater unit.

3) Install steering column upper and lower cover.
4) Tighten steering column cover screws.
CAUTION:
When installing lower cover and upper cover, be careful
so that combination switch lead wire is not caught be-
tween covers.
5) Install steering column hole cover.
6) Install steering wheel to steering column. Refer to ªSTEERING
WHEELº in this section.
7) Connect battery negative cable.
STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Once the steering column is removed from the vehicle, the
column is extremely susceptible to damage.
Dropping the column assembly on its end could collapse
the steering shaft or loosen the plastic shear pins which
maintain column length. Leaning on the column assembly
could cause it to bend or deform.
Any of the above damage could impair the column's col-
lapsible design.
When loosening steering column mounting bolts, make
sure that steering column assembly and steering shaft low-
er assembly have been separated. Loosening them with
steering column assembly and steering shaft lower assem-
bly assembled could cause damage to bearing in steering
shaft lower assembly.
NOTE:
When servicing steering column or any column-mounted
component, remove steering wheel. But when removing steer-
ing column simply to gain access to instrument panel compo-
nents, leave steering wheel installed on steering column.
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative battery cable at battery terminal.

so that contact coil and combination switch lead wire is
not caught between covers.

STEERING COLUMN
CAUTION:
Once the steering column is removed from the vehicle, the
column is extremely susceptible to damage.

maintain column length leaning on the column assembly
could cause it to bend or deform.

ing column simply to gain access to instrument panel compo-
nents, leave steering wheel installed on steering column.

Higher than Recommended Pressure Can Cause:
1. Hard ride
2. Tire bruising or carcass damage
3. Rapid tread wear at center of tire
Unequal Pressure on Same Axle Can Cause:
1. Uneven braking
2. Steering lead
3. Reduced handling
4. Swerve on acceleration
Valve caps should be kept on valves to keep dust and
water out.Lower than Recommended Pressure Can Cause:
1. Tire squeal on turns
2. Hard steering
3. Rapid and uneven wear on the edges of the tread
4. Tire rim bruises and rupture
5. Tire cord breakage
6. High tire temperatures
7. Reduced handling
8. High fuel consumption
MAINTENANCE AND MINOR ADJUSTMENTS
WHEEL AND TIRE
Wheel repairs that use welding, heating, or peening are not approved. All damaged wheels should be replaced.
STUDS
If a broken stud is found, see Section 3E (rear) or Section 3D (front) for Note and Replacement procedure.
MATCHED TIRES AND WHEELS
(For vehicle equipped with steel wheels)
Tires and wheels are matchmounted at the assembly plant.
This means that the radially stiffest part of the tire, or ªhigh spotº, is
matched to the smallest radius or ªlow spotº of the wheel.
This is done to provide the smoothest possible ride.
The ªhigh spotº of the tire is originally marked by paint dot on the
outboard sidewall. This paint dot will eventually wash off the tire.
The ªlow spotº of the wheel is originally marked by paint dot on the
wheel rim-flange. Properly assembled, the wheel rims' paint dot
should be aligned with the tires' paint dot as shown in left figure.
Whenever a tire is dismounted from its wheel, it should be re-
mounted so that the tire and wheel are matched. If the tire's paint
dot cannot be located, a line should be scribed on the tire and wheel
before dismounting to assure that it is remounted in the same posi-
tion.
INFLATION OF TIRES
The pressure recommended for any model is carefully calculated to give a satisfactory ride, stability, steering, tread
wear, tire life and resistance to bruises.
Tire pressure, with tires cold, (after vehicle has set for three hours or more, or driven less than one mile) should
be checked monthly or before any extended trip. Set to the specifications on the tire placard located on the side
of instrument panel.
It is normal for tire pressure increase when the tires become hot during driving. Do not bleed or reduce tire pressure
after driving. Bleeding reduces the ªCold Inflation Pressureº.

7B1-18 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4 A / T)
[For Vehicle without Monitor Connector]
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
For automatic transmission control system, PCM (ECM) has follow-
ing functions. Refer to Section 6 / 6-1 for details.

When the ignition switch is turned ON with the engine at a stop,
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) turns ON to check the bulb of the
MIL.

When PCM detects a malfunction in A / T control system (and / or
a malfunction which gives an adverse effect to vehicle emission)
while the engine is running, it makes the malfunction indicator
lamp in the meter cluster of the instrument panel turn ON and
stores the malfunction area in its memory. (If it detects that contin-
uously 3 driving cycles are normal after detecting a malfunction,
however, it makes MIL turn OFF although DTC stored in its
memory will remain.)

It is possible to communicate through DLC by using not only SU-
ZUKI scan tool (Tech-1) but also generic scan tool. (Diagnostic in-
formation can be accessed by using a scan tool.)
