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).

DIAGNOSIS OF ABNORMAL NOISE
There are various types of noise, ranging from those produced in the engine compartment to those from the pas-
senger compartment, also from rumbling noises to whistling noises.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM COMPRESSOR
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

During compressor operation, a
rumbling noise is heard
proportional to engine
revolutions.
Inadequate clearance in piston
area (piston or swash-plate).
Repair or replace compressor as
necessary.

A loud noise is heard at a certain
rpm, disproportionately to engine
revolution.
Loose or faulty V-belt.

Loose mounting bolts.
Adjust V-belt tension, or
replace belt.

Retighten mounting bolts.

A loud rattle is heard at low
engine rpm.
Loose compressor center bolt.
Retighten center bolt.

Replace compressor if it was
operated in this condition for a
long time.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM MAGNETIC CLUTCH
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

A rumbling noise is heard when
compressor is not operating.
Worn or damaged bearings.
Replace bearings.

A chattering noise is heard when
compressor is engaged.
Faulty clutch gap (excessive).

Worn clutch friction surface.

Compressor oil leaked from shaft
seal, contaminating the friction
surface.
Adjust clutch gap.

Replace clutch.

Replace compressor shaft oil
seal.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM TUBING
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

A droning noise is heard inside
vehicle, but not particularly
noticeable in engine
compartment.
Faulty tubing clamps.

Resonance caused by pulsation
from variations in refrigerant
pressure.
Reposition clamps or increase
the number of clamps.

Attach a silencer to tubing, or
modify its position and length.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM CONDENSER
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

Considerable vibration in
condenser.
Resonance from condenser
mounting stay and body.
Firmly insert a silencer between
condenser mounting stay and
body.

AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-9
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

A large rattling noise is heard at
idle or sudden acceleration.
Loosen pulley mounting bolt.

Worn or broken bearings.
Retighten bolt.

Replace bearings.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM TENSION PULLEY
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

Clattering noise is heard from
pulley.

Pulley cranks upon contact.
Worn or damaged bearings.

Cracked or loose bracket.
Replace bearings.

Replace or retighten bracket.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM EVAPORATOR
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

Whistling sound is heard from
evaporator.
Depending on the combination of
the interior / exterior
temperatures, engine rpm and
refrigerant pressure, the
refrigerant flowing out of the
expansion valve may, under
certain conditions, make a
whistling sound.
At times, slightly decreasing
refrigerant volume may stop this
noise.

Inspect expansion valve and
replace if faulty.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM BLOWER MOTOR
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

Blower motor emits a chirping
sound in proportion to its speed of
rotation.

Fluttering noise or large droning
noise is heard from blower motor.
Worn or damaged motor brushes
or commutator.

Leaves or other debris
introduced from fresh air inlet to
blower motor.
Repair or replace blower motor.

Remove debris and make sure
that the screen at fresh air inlet is
intact.
