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.

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.

CAUTION
To avoid damaging your cooling system:
Always use a high quality ethylene
glycol base non-silicate based
coolant diluted with distilled water
at the correct mixture concentration.
Make sure that the proper mix is 50/
50 coolant to distilled water (Diesel)
and 30/70 (For petrol). Concen-
trations other than this may cause
overheating conditions.
Neither use 100% coolant nor 100%
plain water.
Do not add extra inhibitors or addi-
tives. They may not be compatible
with your cooling system.
Do not mix different types of base
coolants. Doing so may result in
accelerated seal wear and/or the
possibility of severe overheating and
extensive engine damage.Coolant Level CheckCheck the coolant level at the reservoir
tank, not at the radiator. With the engine
cool, the coolant level should be between
the “FULL” and “LOW” marks.
Selection of CoolantTo maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use MARUTI
Genuine Coolant or equivalent.
This type of coolant is best for your cooling
system as it:
Helps maintain proper engine tempera-
ture.
Gives proper protection against freezing
and boiling.
Gives proper protection against corrosion
and rust.
Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-
age your cooling system. Your MARUTI
SUZUKI authorized dealer can help you
select the proper coolant.
w ww w
w WARNING
It is hazardous to remove the reservoir
tank cap (degassing tank cap) for Diesel
engine when the water temperature is
high, because scalding fluid and steam
may be blown out under pressure. Wait
until the coolant temperature has
lowered before removing the cap.
Adding Coolant(For Petrol Engine Model)
If the coolant level is below the “LOW”
mark, more coolant should be added.Remove the reservoir tank cap and add
coolant until the reservoir tank level reaches
the “FULL” mark. Never fill the reservoir
tank above the “FULL” mark.
(For Diesel Engine Model)
If the coolant level is below the “LOW”
mark, more coolant should be added. When
the engine is cool, remove the degassing
tank cap by turning it anticlockwise slowly
to release any pressure. And add coolant
until the degassing tank level reaches the
“FULL” mark. Never fill the degassing tank
above the “FULL” mark.
The mixture you use should contain
50% concentration of antifreeze.
If the lowest ambient temperature in
your area is expected to be – 35°C
(–31°F) or below, use higher
concentrations up to 60% following

For nickel spark plugs (traditional type):
You should inspect spark plugs periodically
for carbon deposits. When carbon accu-
mulates on a spark plug, a strong spark
may not be produced. Remove carbon
deposits with a wire or pin and adjust the
spark plug gap.
To access the spark plugs:
1) Unclamp the air cleaner cover.
2) Remove the engine top cover.
3) If necessary, disconnect the coupler (1)
while pushing the release lever.
4) Remove the ignitor bolts.
5) Pull the spark plug boots out.NOTE:
When installation, make sure the wires,
couplers, sealing rubber of top cover and
washers, are correctly returned in place.

NOTICE
CAUTION
When pulling the ignition coils out,
do not pull on the cable. Pulling on
the cable can damage it. When installing the spark plugs,
screw them in with your fingers to
avoid stripping the threads. Tighten
with a torque wrench to 18 Nm (1.83
kg-m, 13.3 lb-ft). Do not allow con-
taminants to enter the engine
through the spark plug holes when
the plugs are removed.
Never use spark plugs with the
wrong thread size.

NOTE:
If your engine is equipped with the high-
tension cord type ignition wiring and you
experience some firing problem of spark
plugs, such as, hard engine-starting, misfire
etc., the cause may be located not only on
spark plugs but also on deteriorated ignition
wirings (generally, used for more than 80000
km or five years). If spark plug replacement
does not solve the problem, have theEXAMPLEV VV V

Gear Oil Level Check
(1) Oil filler and level plug
(for petrol engine model)
(2) Oil filler and level plug
(for diesel engine model)
To check the gear oil level, use the follow-
ing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface withthe parking brake applied. Then, stop the
engine.
2) Remove the oil filler plug.
3) Feel the inside of the hole with your fin-
ger. If the oil level comes up to the bot-
tom of the plug hole, the oil level is
correct. If so, reinstall the plug.
4) If the oil level is low, add gear oil
through the oil filler plug hole (1) until
the oil level reaches the bottom of the
filler hole, then reinstall the plug.
Tightening torque (1):
