Brake Drums and Shoes
INSPECTION
1) Remove wheel and brake drum.
2) Check rear brake drums and brake linings for excessive wear
and damage, while wheels and drums are removed. At the
same time, check wheel cylinders for leaks. Replace these
parts as necessary.
For details, refer to “Brake Drum” in Section 5.
Brake Hoses and Pipes
INSPECTION
Check brake hoses and pipes for proper hookup, leaks, cracks,
chafing and other damage.
Replace any of these parts as necessary.
Brake Fluid
CHANGE
Change brake fluid as follows.
Drain existing fluid from brake system completely, fill system with
above recommended fluid and carry out air purge operation.
For air purging procedure, refer to “Air Bleeding of Brake System”
in Section 5.
CAUTION:
After replacing any brake pipe or hose, be sure to carry
out air purge operation.
CAUTION:
Since brake system of this vehicle is factory-filled with
glycol-base brake fluid, do not use or mix different type
of fluid when refilling system; otherwise serious damage
will occur. Do not use old or used brake fluid, or one
taken from unsealed container.

Performance Diagnosis
1) Confirm that vehicle and environmental conditions are as fol-
lows.
Vehicle is not exposed to direct sun.
Ambient temperature is within 15 – 35 °C (59 – 95 °F).
2) Make sure that high pressure valve (1) and low pressure
valve (2) of manifold gauge set (3) are firmly closed.
3) Connect high pressure charging hose (4) to high pressure
service valve (5), and connect low pressure charging hose
(6) to low pressure service valve (7).
4) Bleed the air in charging hoses (4), (6) by loosening their
respective nuts on manifold gauge set (3), utilizing the refrig-
erant pressure. When a hissing sound is heard, immediately
tighten nut.
5) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature (engine
coolant temperature at 80 – 90 °C (176 – 194 °F)) and keep
it at specified idle speed. (Radiator cooling fan should not be
working when checking pressure and temperature.)
6) Turn A/C switch ON, and set blower switch at “HI” (3rd posi-
tion), temperature knob at “COOL” air outlet control knob at
“FACE” and fresh / circulation control knob at “CIRCULA-
TION”. (Confirm that A/C compressor and radiator / con-
denser cooling fan are working.)
Keep all windows, doors and engine food open.
Performance diagnosis condition
7) With dry bulb thermometer (1) inserted into center duct air
outlet and another one set near evaporator air inlet, read
temperature indicated on each thermometer. CAUTION:
Do not interchange high and low pressure charging
hoses by mistake.
Ambient temperature 15 – 35 °C (59 – 95 °F)
Engine rpm Keep to 1,500 rpm.
Blower fan motor switch “H” (3rd position)
Temperature control “Cool”
Air outlet control “Face”
Vehicle doors All open

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
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” 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
“LOCK” position and negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
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 specified dur-
ing reassembly to assure proper retention of these parts.

Air Bleeding Procedure
AIR BLEEDING FROM SYSTEM
1) Jack up the front end of vehicle and apply rigid rack.
2) Fill P/S fluid reservoir with fluid up to specified level.
3) With engine running at idling speed, add fluid up to specified
level.
4) When fluid stops reducing, stop engine and leave P/S sys-
tem as it is for about 10 minutes.
5) After running engine at idling speed for 1 minute, stop it.
6) As a final step, check to make sure that fluid is up to speci-
fied level.
7) Check steering condition and P/S system for fluid leakage.
AIR BLEEDING FROM GEAR BOX
1) Remove steering gear box from vehicle referring to “Power
Steering (P/S) Gear Box” in this section.
2) Install special tool as shown.
Special tool
(A) : 09945-35010 CAUTION:
When air bleeding is not complete, it is indicated by
foaming fluid on level gauge or humming noise from P/S
pump.
NOTE:
Bleed air from system when P/S system has been ser-
viced in any way other than replacement of steering gear
box (e.g., disconnection of piping, replacement of P/S
pump). Never operate steering system while servicing.
Or Air Bleeding from gear box must be performed.
NOTE:
Bleed air from gear box:
When steering gear box has been replaced with a new
one.
When entry of air into hydraulic circuit of steering gear
box is suspected.
1. Steering gear box 3. High pressure hose / pipe
2. Low pressure hose / pipe

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine POWER STEERING (P/S) SYSTEM (If equipped) 3B1-9
3) After running engine at idling speed for 3 to 5 seconds, stop
it and add fluid up to specified level. Repeat this step a few
times.
4) Set steering gear box (1) to state [A] as shown.
5) With engine running at idling speed, turn input shaft by using
special tool in both directions as far as it locks till all foams
are gone.
Special tool
(B) : 09944-18211
6) Perform Step 5) but with steering gear box in state [B] this
time and then in state [C].
7) Set input shaft at neutral position (straight position).
8) Remove (special) tools and install steering gear box to vehi-
cle and P/S pipe / hose to steering gear box referring to
“Power Steering (P/S) Gear Box” in this section.
9) Bleed air in P/S system referring to “Air Bleeding Procedure”
in this section.
10) Install pitman arm and steering lower shaft to steering gear
box. NOTE:
Don’t operate steering system for this step.
NOTE:
Add fluid into P/S fluid reservoir whenever its level
lowers while servicing.
Turn input shaft till it locks, return it a little and turn it
again in the same direction till it locks. Repeat this
some times.
NOTE:
To change of state of gear box from [A] to [B] and from
[B] to [C], turn gear box in arrow direction in figures [A]
and [B].
NOTE:
As input shaft makes 4 full turns from lock to lock, neu-
tral position is obtained by turning it till it locks and turn-
ing it back by 2 full turns.
2. Vinyl tube (See-through tube)
NOTE:
Don’t install pitman arm and steering lower shaft to
steering gear box.
Installation of these parts will cause input shaft and/or
sector shaft to turn, allowing air to enter gear box.
Plug up opening after pipe or hose disconnection.

high pressure hose from high pressure pipe connector and
connect oil pressure gauge (special tool) as shown.
Special tool
(A) : 09915-77410
(B) : 09915-77420
2) Bleed air.
3) With engine running at idling speed, keep turning steering
wheel to the right and left till fluid in P/S fluid reservoir is
warmed to 50 to 60 °C (122 – 140 °F)
4) Back pressure check
With engine running at idling speed and hands off from
steering wheel, check hydraulic pressure.
If back pressure exceeds 980 kPa (10 kg/cm
2, 142 psi),
check control valve and pipes for obstruction.
