2) Connect Low charging hose (1) and High charging hose (2)
of the manifold gauge set (3) in position. Thus open refriger-
ant container valve (4) to purge the charging line.
3) Open the high pressure side valve (5) and charge refrigerant
to system.
4) After a while, open the low pressure side valve (6) and close
the high pressure side valve (5).
5) Start engine and keep engine speed at 1500 r/min. Then,
operate air conditioning.
6) Charge A/C system with refrigerant in vapor state. At this
time, refrigerant container should be held upright.
7) When refrigerant container (3) is emptied, use the following
procedure to replace refrigerant container with a new refrig-
erant container (3).
a) Close low pressure valve.
b) Replace empty container (3) with a refrigerant container
which has been charged with refrigerant. When using
refrigerant container tap valve (4), use the following proce-
dure for replacement.
i) Retract needle (1) and remove refrigerant container tap
valve (4) by loosening its plate nut (2).
ii) Install previously-removed refrigerant container tap valve
(4) to a new refrigerant container (3).
c) Purge any air existing in center charging hose
When using refrigerant container tap valve, use the follow-
ing procedure to purge air.
i) Once fully tighten refrigerant container tap valve (1), and
then loosen (open) plate nut (2) slightly.
ii) Open low pressure side valve (3) of manifold gauge set
(4) a little.
iii) As soon as refrigerant comes out with a “hiss” through a
clearance between refrigerant container and tap valve,
tighten plate nut (2) as well as low pressure side valve (3).
iv) Turn handle of tap valve (1) clockwise so that its needle is
screwed into the new container to make a hole for refriger-
ant flow. WARNING:
Make sure that high pressure side valve is closed
securely.

On-Vehicle Service
Service Precaution
When servicing air conditioning system, note the following instructions.
Refrigerant line
Never use heat for bending pipes. When bending a pipe, try to make its bending radius as slight as possible.
Keep internal parts of air conditioning free from moisture and dirt. When disconnecting any line from system,
install a blind plug or cap to the fitting immediately.
When connecting hoses and pipes, apply a few drops of compressor oil to seats of coupling nuts and O-ring.
When tightening or loosening a fitting, use two wrenches, one for turning and the other for support.
Tighten flared nuts by the following specified torque.
Tightening torque (Flared Nut Used for)
8 mm pipe : 13 N·m (1.3 kg-m, 9.5 lb-ft)
12 mm pipe : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 16.6 lb-ft)
14.5 mm pipe : 33 N·m (3.3 kg-m, 23.8 lb-ft)
Route drain hose so that drained water does not make any contact to vehicle components.
Before evacuating and charging refrigerant, replenish specified amount of compressor oil to compressor
suction side by referring to “Replenishing Compressor Oil” in this section.
1. Suction hose:
Apply compressor oil to O-ring.4. Condenser outlet pipe:
Apply compressor oil to O-ring.
2. Discharge hose:
Apply compressor oil to O-ring.5. Expansion valve:
Apply compressor oil to O-ring.
3. Receiver / dryer outlet pipe:
Apply compressor oil to O-ring.6. Dual pressure switch:
Apply compressor oil to O-ring.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 3A-2 FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
General Description
Front alignment refers to the angular relationship between the
front wheels, the front suspension attaching parts and the ground.
Generally, the only adjustment required for front wheel alignment
is toe setting.
Camber and caster can’t be adjusted. Therefore, should camber
or caster be out of specification due to the damage caused by
hazardous road conditions or collision, whether the damage is in
body or in suspension should be determined. If the body is dam-
aged, it should be repaired and if suspension is damaged, it
should be replaced.
Toe Setting
Toe is the turning in or out of the front wheels. The purpose of a
toe specification is to ensure parallel rolling of the front wheels
(Excessive toe-in or toe-out may increase tire wear).
Toe-in
“B” – “A” : 2 – 6 mm (0.08 – 0.24 in.)
For adjusting toe setting, refer to “Toe Adjustment” in this section.
Camber
Camber is the tilting of the front wheels from the vertical, as
viewed from the front of the vehicle. When the wheels tilt outward
at the top, the camber is positive. When the wheels tilt inward at
the top, the camber is negative. The amount of tilt is measured in
degrees.
Camber
“C” : 0° 30’ ± 1°
Alignment Service Data (Reference)
Caster
: 1° 55’ ± 1° NOTE:
Toe-in value was measured by using a toe-in gauge.

Camber And Caster Check And Adjustment
Should camber or caster be found out of specifications upon
inspection, locate its cause first. If it is in damaged, loose, bent,
dented or worn suspension parts and axle housing, they should
be replaced. If it is in vehicle body, repair it so as to attain specifi-
cations.
Steering Angle Check And Adjustment
When tie rod (2) or tie rod end (3) was replaced, check toe and
then also steering angle with turning radius gauge (1).
If steering angle is not correct, check if right and left tie rods are
equal in length “A”.
Steering angle
Inside : 35° ± 3°
Outside : 32° ± 3°
Side Slip(Reference)
For inspecting front wheel side slip with side slip tester:
If side slip exceeds limit, toe or front wheel alignment may out not
be correct.
Side slip limit
: Less than 3 mm/m (Less than 0.118 in/3 ft) NOTE:
To prevent possible incorrect reading of camber or
caster, vehicle front end must be moved up and down a
few times before inspection.
NOTE:
If tie rod lengths were changed to adjust steering angle,
reinspect toe-in.

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.

3) Measure worm shaft starting torque from its position in
straight forward state as described in Step 2).
Starting Torque for Worm shaft
(a) : 50 – 100 N·cm (5.0-10.0 kg-cm, 0.4-0.7 lb-ft)
Special tool
(A) : 09944-18211

If measured torque is not within specification, carry out adjust-
ment with adjusting bolt (1) to meet specification and check to
confirm it again.
Tightening torque
Steering gear box adjusting bolt lock nut
(a) : 30 N·m (3.0 kg-m, 22.0 lb-ft)
4) If worm shaft starting torque is checked all right, another
check should be carried out on worm shaft operating torque
in its entire operating range (by turning worm shaft all the
way to the right and left).
Worm Shaft (Including sector shaft) Operating Torque
(a) : Under 120 N·cm (12.0 kg-cm, 10.9 lb-ft)
Special tool
(A) : 09944-18211
If measured torque does not conform to specification, readjust
worm shaft starting torque in straightforward state by means of
adjusting bolt (1), and then recheck worm shaft operating torque.
Tightening torque
Steering gear box adjusting bolt lock nut
(b) : 30 N·m (3.0 kg-m, 22.0 lb-ft)
If specified value is not attained even after readjustment, it is
advisable to replace gear box with new gear box assembly.

General Description
The power steering system in this vehicle reduces the driver’s effort needed in turning the steering wheel by uti-
lizing the hydraulic pressure generated by the power steering (P/S) pump which is driven by the engine. It is an
integral type with the mechanical gear unit, hydraulic pressure cylinder unit and control valve unit all housed in
the gear box.
