With the engine running, measure the dis-
tance between the brake pedal and floor
carpet when the pedal is depressed with
approximately 30 kg (66 lbs) of force. The
minimum distance required is as specified.
Since your vehicle’s brake system is self-
adjusting, there is no need for pedal
adjustment.
If the pedal to floor wall distance as mea-
sured above is less than the minimum dis-
tance required, have your vehicle inspec-ted
by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.NOTE:
When measuring the distance between the
brake pedal and floor wall, be sure not to
include the floor mat or rubber on the floor
wall in your measurement.

those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).
3) Make jump lead connections as follows:
1. Connect one end of the first jump
lead to the positive (+) terminal of
the flat battery (1).
2. Connect the other end to the positive
(+) terminal of the booster battery (2).
3. Connect one end of the second jump
lead to the negative (–) terminal of
the booster battery (3).
4. Make the final connection to an
unpainted, heavy metal part (i.e.
engine mounting stud/nut (4)) of the
engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery (1).4) If the booster battery you are using is
fitted to another vehicle, start the engine
of the vehicle with the booster battery.
Run the engine at moderate speed.
5) Start the engine of the vehicle with the
flat battery.
6) Remove the jump leads in the exact
reverse order in which you connected them.

contact a Maruti Suzuki authorised dealer
/ service stations.
w ww w
w WARNING
Never connect the jump lead directly
to the negative (–) terminal of the dis-
charged battery, or an explosion may
occur.
CAUTION
To help avoid damage to your vehicle
during towing, proper equipment and
towing procedures must be used.
CAUTION
The steering colum is not strong
enough to withstand shocks trans-
mitted from the front wheels during
towing always unlock the steering
wheel before towing.
Your vehicle may be towed using either of
the following methods.
1) From the front, with the front wheels
lifted and the rear wheels on the ground.
Before towing, make sure that the
parking brake is released.
2) From the rear, with the rear wheels lifted
and the front wheels on the ground,provided the steering and drivetrain are
in operational condition. Before towing,
make sure that transmission is in neutral,
the steering wheel is unlocked (the
ignition key should be in the “ACC”
position), and the steering wheel is
secured with a clamping device designed
for towing service.If the Starter Does Not
Operate1) Try turning the ignition switch to the
“START” position with the headlights turned
on to determine the battery condition. If the
headlights go excessively dim or go off, it
usually means that either the battery is flat
or the battery terminal contact is poor.
Recharge the battery or correct battery
terminal contact as necessary.
2) If the headlights remain bright, check the
fuses. If the reason for failure of the
starter is not obvious, there may be a
major electrical problem. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI
authorized dealer.
