Precautions on Service and Diagnosis of Air
Bag System
S7RS0B8200001
WARNING!
• If the air bag system and another vehicle system both need repair, SUZUKI
recommends that the air bag system be
repaired first, to help avoid unintended air
bag system activation.
• Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard, both front seat or any other on
or around air bag system components.
Modifications can adversely affect air bag
system performance and lead to injury.
• Be sure to follow the procedures described in this section. Failure to follow
procedures could result in possible air bag
system activation, personal injury or
unneeded air bag system repairs.

• WARNING / CAUTION labels are attached on each
part of air bag system components (SDM, air bag
(inflator) modules and seat belt pretensioners). Be
sure to follow the instructions.
• Many of service procedures require disconnection of
“A/BAG” fuse and air bag (inflator) module(s) (driver,
passenger, side of both si des and curtain of both
sides) from initiator circuit to avoid an accidental
deployment.
• Do not apply power to the air bag system unless all components are connected or a diagnostic flow
requests it, as this will set a DTC.
• The “Air Bag Diagnostic S ystem Check” must be the
starting point of any air bag diagnostics. The “Air Bag
Diagnostic System Check” will verify proper “AIR
BAG” warning right operatio n and will lead you to the
correct flow to diagnose any air bag malfunctions.
Bypassing these procedures may result in extended
diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis, and incorrect
parts replacements. • Never use air bag component parts from another
vehicle.
• If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93
° C (200 °F) (for example, during a paint baking
process), remove the air bag system components
beforehand to avoid component damage or
unintended system activation.
• When handling the air bag (inflator) modules (driver, passenger, side of both si des and curtain of both
sides), seat belt pretensio ners (driver and passenger),
SDM, forward-sensor or side-sensor, be careful not to
drop it or apply an impact to it. If an excessive impact
was applied (e.g., SDM, forward-sensor and side-
sensor are dropped, air bag (inflator) module is
dropped from a height of 90 cm (3 ft) or more, seat
belt pretensioner (retractor assembly) is dropped from
a height of 30 cm (1 ft) or more), never attempt
disassembly or repair but replace it with a new one.
• When using electric welding, be sure to disconnect air bag (inflator) module connectors (driver, passenger,
side of both sides and curtain of both sides) and seat
belt pretensioner connectors (driver and passenger)
respectively.
• When applying paint around the air bag system related parts, use care so that the harness or
connector will not be expo sed to the paint mist.
• Never expose air bag system component parts directly to hot air (drying or baking the vehicle after
painting) or flames.
WARNING!
When performing service on or around air
bag system components or air bag wiring,
follow the procedures listed in “Disabling Air
Bag System” to temporarily disable the air
bag system.
Failure to follow procedures could result in
possible air bag system activation, personal
injury or unneeded air bag system repairs.

Precautions on Handling and Storage of Air Bag
System Components
S7RS0B8200002
SDM
WARNING!
Never power up air bag system when SDM is
not rigidly attached to the vehicle. Otherwise,
personal injury may result.

CAUTION!
After detecting one time of such collision as
to meet deployment conditions, SDM must
not be used. Refer to “Air Bag Diagnostic
System Check” when checking SDM.

• Never attempt disassembly of SDM.
• When storing SDM, select a place where neither high temperature nor high humidity is anticipated and oil,
water and dust are kept off.
• If SDM has been dropped, replace it with a new one.
• If SDM installation part of floor was damaged, repair that part completely before reinstallation.
• All SDM and mounting bracket fasteners must be carefully torqued and the arrow must be pointed
toward the front of the vehicle to ensure proper
operation of the air bag system. Live (Undeployed) Air Bag (Inflator) Modules
Special care is necessary when handling and storing a
live (undeployed) air bag (inflator) modules.
The rapid gas generation produced during deployment
of the air bag could cause the air bag (inflator) module,
or an object in front of the air bag (inflator) module, to be
thrown through the air in the unlikely event of an
accidental deployment.
WARNING!
Never attempt to measure the resistance of
the air bag (inflator) modules (driver,
passenger and side of both sides and curtain
of both sides). It is
very dangerous as the
electric current from the tester may deploy
the air bag.

• When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire harness, connector or terminal is found, replace wire
harness, connectors and terminals as an assembly.
• When installing it, be careful so that the air bag wire harness is not caught or does not interfere with other
parts.
• Make sure air bag system grounding point (2) is clean and ground is securely fastened for optimum metal-to-
metal contact. Poor grounding can cause intermittent
problems that are difficult to diagnose.Precautions on Disposal of Air Bag and Seat
Belt Pretensioner
S7RS0B8200003
Do not dispose of the live (undeployed) air bag (inflator)
modules and the live (inactivated) seat belt
pretensioners.
When disposal is necessary, be sure to deploy / activate
the air bag and seat belt pretensioner according to
deployment / activation procedure described in “Air Bag
(Inflator) Module and Seat Belt Pretensioner Disposal”.
WARNING!
Failure to follow proper air bag (inflator)
module and seat belt pretensioner disposal
procedures can result in air bag deployment
and pretensioner activation which could
cause personal injury. Undeployed air bag
(inflator) module and inactivated seat belt
pretensioner must not be disposed of
through normal refuse channels.
The undeployed air bag (inflator) module and
inactivated seat belt pretensioner contain
substances that can cause severe illness or
personal injury if the sealed container is
damaged during disposal.

General Description
Air Bag System ConstructionS7RS0B8201001
With the air bag system which includes front air bags,
side curtain-air bag and side-air bags for both the
driver’s and passenger’s sides as well as the seat belt
pretensioners, the sag of the s eat belt is taken up (for
seat belt with pretensioner), the driver air bag (inflator)
module is deployed from th e 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.
Side-air bag (inflator) module is deployed from the side
of the seat back in occurrence of a sideward collision
with an impact larger than a certain set value.
Side curtain-air bag (inflator) module is deployed from
the roof side in occurrence of a sideward collision with
an impact larger than a certain set value.

WARNING!
• When carrying a live air bag (inflator) module, make sure the bag opening is
pointed away from you.
Never carry air bag (inflator) module by
wires or connector on the side of the
module. In case of an accidental
deployment, the bag will then deploy with
minimal chance of injury.
• As the live passenger air bag (inflator) module must be kept with its bag (trim
cover) facing up while being stored or left
standing, place it on the workbench with a
slit facing down or use the workbench vise
to hold it securely at its lower mounting
bracket. This is necessary so that a free
space is provided to allow the air bag to
expand in the unlikely event of accidental
deployment.
• Observe “Precautions on Handling and Storage of Air Bag System Components”
for handling and storing it.
Otherwise, personal injury may result.

Installation
1) Install passenger air bag (inflator) module to air bag hole cover (2).
