         WHEEL & TIRE SPECIFICATIONS

         Tire specifications are imprinted on the tire side wall. The

recommended cold tire inflation pressures are listed on a label

attached to the rear face of the driver’s door. These pressures

provide the best combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability

under normal conditions.

CAUTION: DO NOT mix tires of different design such as radial ply

         with bias or bias-belted tires. Mixing tire types will

         adversely affect road handling and may lead to loss of

         vehicle control. When using snow tires, they must be used

         in set of four for maneuverability and safety. DO NOT use

         tire chains on front wheels.

         BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS

CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with

         computers may lose memory data. When battery power is

         restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.

         These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See

         COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the GENERAL

         INFORMATION Section.

         Battery is maintenance-free and does not normally require

additional water. However, under severe conditions it is advisable to

check battery fluid periodically. Use only distilled water to fill

battery cell should it become necessary to add water. Charge condition

can be checked by a visual test indicator on top of battery.

         CAUTIONS & WARNINGS

         SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIR BAG)

NOTE:    See the AIR BAGS article in the ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT

         Section.

         Modifications or improper maintenance, including incorrect

removal and installation of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS),

can adversely affect system performance. DO NOT cover, obstruct or

change the steering wheel horn pad in any way, as such action could

cause improper function of the system. Use only plain water when

cleaning the horn pad. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the

air bag cover and cause improper deployment of the system.

WARNING: Service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring must

         be preformed only by an authorized Suzuki dealer.  Please

         observe all WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.

WARNING: Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds

         after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position and

         the cable is disconnected from the battery.

WARNING: Never attempt to disassemble or repair the passenger air

         bag (inflator) module. If any abnormality is found, be sure

         to replace it with new one as an assembly.

WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and

         carefully follow all warnings and service precautions. See

         appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article in the

         ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT section.

CAUTION: Disconnect negative battery cable before servicing any air

         bag system, steering column or passenger side dash

         component. After any repair, turn ignition key to the ON

         position from passenger’s side of vehicle in case of

         accidental air bag inflation

         AIR CONDITIONING SERVICING

WARNING: Avoid breathing R-134a refrigerant and PAG lubricant vapors,

         exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat.  To remove

         R-134a from system use R-134a recycling equipment that meets

         SAE J2210 specifications. If accidental system discharge

         occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.

WARNING: R-134a service equipment or vehicle A/C systems SHOULD NOT

         be pressure tested or leak tested with compressed air. Some

         mixtures of air/R134a have shown to be combustible at

         elevated pressures. These mixtures are dangerous and may

         cause fire and/or explosions.  See AIR CONDITIONING SERVICE

         article in GENERAL INFORMATION section.

         AIR CLEANER FILTER

WARNING: Operating the engine with the air cleaner off can cause you

         or others to be burned. The air cleaner not only cleans the

         air, it stops flame if the engine backfires. Do not drive

         with it off, and be careful working on the engine with the

         air cleaner off.

         ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM

         The anti-lock brake system contains electronic equipment that

can be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or

high output radio transmitting equipment. Since this interference

could cause the possible loss of the anti-lock braking capability,

such equipment should be installed by qualified professionals.

         On models equipped with anti-lock brake systems, ALWAYS

observe the following cautions:

      *  DO NOT attempt to bleed hydraulic system without first

         referring to the appropriate ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM article

         in the BRAKES Section.

      *  DO NOT mix tire sizes. As long as tires remain close to the

         original diameter, increasing the width is acceptable.

         Rolling diameter must be identical for all 4 tires. Some

         manufacturers recommend tires of the same brand, style and

         type. Failure to follow this precaution may cause inaccurate

         wheel speed readings.

      *  Use ONLY recommended brake fluids. DO NOT use silicone brake

         fluids in an ABS-equipped vehicle.

         AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SERVICE

WARNING: Make certain that no fluid is spilled when the transaxle

         fluid is inspected, or when fluid is added soon after

         driving (since the engine is hot). If the fluid spills onto

         the exhaust manifold, there is danger of fire.

         BATTERY SERVICE

WARNING: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with

         computers may lose memory data. When battery power is

         restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.

         These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See COMPUTER

         RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION section.

WARNING: Batteries produce flammable hydrogen gas. Keep flames and

         sparks away from the battery or and explosion may occur.

         Never smoke when working in the vicinity of the battery.

WARNING: When checking or servicing the battery, disconnect the

         negative cable. Be careful not to cause a short circuit by

         allowing metal objects to contact the battery posts and the

         vehicle at the same time.

CAUTION: Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running;

         doing so could damage the car’s electrical components.

         REPLACING BLOWN FUSES

         Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off

all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be

sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use

of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous

electrical system overload.

         BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR

         Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning

that brake pads need replacement.

         BRAKE FLUID

WARNING: DO NOT use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has been stored

          in old or open containers.  It is essential that foreign

          particles and other liquids are kept out of the brake fluid

          reservoir.

         CATALYTIC CONVERTER

         Continued operation of vehicle with a severe malfunction

could cause converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to

converter and vehicle.

         ENGINE COOLANT SERVICE

WARNING: To avoid the danger of being scalded never change the coolant

         when the engine is hot.

WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot Serious

         burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from

         the radiator.

CAUTION: When adding or replacing engine coolant, use a high quality

         ethylene glycol antifreeze diluted with 50% distilled water.

         When putting the cap on the reserve tank, line up the arrow

         on the cap and the arrow on the tank, or coolant can leak out

         ENGINE DRIVE BELT SERVICE

WARNING: Be sure the ignition key is OFF. The engine could rotate

         unexpectedly.

         ENGINE OIL

WARNING: The engine oil may be high enough to burn your fingers

         when the drain plug is loosened. Wait until the drain plug

         is cool enough to touch with you bare hands.

WARNING: Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to

         cause skin cancer in laboratory animals. Brief contact with

         used engine oil may irritate skin.  To minimize your exposure

         to used oil, wear a long sleeve shirt and moisture-proof

         gloves when changing oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash
