You should take extreme care when
working on your vehicle to prevent
accidental injury. Here are a few pre-
cautions that you should be especially
careful to observe:
To prevent damage or unintended
activation of the air bag system be
sure the battery is disconnected and
the ignition switch has been in the
“LOCK” position for at least 90
seconds before performing any
electrical service work on your
vehicle. Do not touch air bag sys-
tem components and wires. The
wires are wrapped with yellow tape
or yellow tubing, and the couplers
are yellow for easy identification.

Do not leave the engine running in
garages or other confined areas.
When the engine is running, keep
hands, clothing, tools, and other
objects away from the fan and drive
belt. Even though the fan may not
be moving, it can automatically turn
on without warning.
When it is necessary to do service
work with the engine running, make
sure that the parking brake is
applied fully and the transmission is
in Neutral.
Do not touch ignition wires or other
ignition system parts when starting
the engine or when the engine is
running, or you could receive an
electric shock.
Be careful not to touch a hot
engine, exhaust manifold and pipes,
muffler, radiator and water hoses.
Do not allow smoking, sparks, or
flames around petrol or the battery.
Flammable fumes are present.
Do not get under your vehicle if it
is supported only with the portable
jack provided in your vehicle.V VV V

w ww w
w WARNING
When the engine is running, keep
hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away
from the moving fan and drive belts.
(For Petrol Engine Model)
Make sure the drive belt tension is correct.
If the belt is too loose, insufficient battery
charging, engine overheating, poor power
steering, poor air conditioning, or excessive
belt wear can result. When you press the
belt with your thumb midway between the
pulleys, there should be a deflection
according to the following chart.
The belts should also be examined to
ensure that they are not damaged.
If you need to replace or adjust the belt
have it done by your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer.
(For Diesel Engine Model)
The drive belts tension is adjusted auto-
matically.

CAUTION
Failure to check the oil level regularly
could lead to serious engine trouble
due to insufficient oil.
(1) MIN
(2) MAX
(3) Engine oil dipstick
It is important to keep the engine oil at the
correct level for proper lubrication of your
vehicle’s engine. Check the oil level with the
vehicle on a level surface. The oil level
indication may be inaccurate if the vehicle
is on a slope. The oil level should be
checked either before starting the engine or
at least 5 minutes after stopping the engine.
The handle of the engine oil dipstick is col-
ored yellow for easy identification. Pull out
the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with a clean cloth,
insert the dipstick all the way into the engine,
then remove it again. The oil on the stick
should be between the upper and lower
limits shown on the stick. If the oil level
indication is near the lower limit, add enough
oil to raise the level to the upper limit.
83K-07-00883K-07-009
Refilling (Petrol)
Refilling (Diesel)Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil slowly
through the filler hole to bring the oil level
to the upper limit on the dipstick. Be careful
not to overfill. Too much oil is almost as
bad as too little oil. After refilling, start the
engine and allow it to idle for about a
minute. Stop the engine, wait about 5 min-
utes and check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and FilterDrain the engine oil while the engine is still
warm.
83K-07-010
The engine oil temperature 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 your bare hands.
w ww w
w WARNING
1) Remove the oil filler cap.
2) Place a drain pan under the drain plug.
3) Using a wrench, remove the drain plug
and drain out the engine oil.
