The light also comes on together with the
ABS warning light when the rear brake force
control function (Proportioning valve
function) of the ABS system fails.
If the brake system warning light comes on
while you are driving the vehicle, it may
mean that there is something wrong with
the vehicle’s brake system. If this happens,
you should:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
w ww w
w WARNING
Remember that stopping distance may
be longer, you may have to push
harder on the pedal, and the pedal
may go down farther than normal.
w ww w
w WARNING
If the brake system warning light
does not go out after the engine
has been started and the parking
brake has been fully released.
If the brake system warning light
does not come on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” or
“START” position.
If the brake system warning light
comes on at any time during vehi-
cle operation.
2) Test the brakes by carefully starting and
stopping at the side of the road.

NOTE:
Because the disc brake system is self-
adjusting, the fluid level will drop as the
brake pads become worn. Replenishing the
brake fluid reservoir is considered normal
periodic maintenance.Seat Belt Warning Light (if
equipped)This light blinks as a reminder until the
driver’s seat belt is buckled.

Warning and Indicator LightsBrake System Warning LightFor working check of this light, there are
following three different type operations
depending on the vehicle’s specification.
1) The light comes on briefly when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” and/
or “START” position.
2) The light comes on when the parking
brake is engaged with the ignition switch
in the “ON” position.
3) The light comes on when under either
or both of above two conditions.
The light also comes on when the fluid in
the brake fluid reservoir falls below the
specified level.
The light should go out after starting the
engine and fully releasing the parking brake,
if the fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir
is adequate.

latched.
5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights,
brake lights and horn for proper opera-
tion.
6) Adjust the seat and adjustable head
restraint (if equipped).
7) Check the brake pedal and the parking
brake lever.
8) Adjust the mirrors.
9) Make sure that you and all passengers
have properly fastened your seat belts.
10)Make sure that all warning lights come
on as the key is turned to the “ON” or
“START” position.
11)Check all gauges.
12)Make sure that the BRAKE SYSTEM
WARNING light turns off when the
parking brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel
tank, perform the following under-hood
checks:
1) Engine oil level
2) Coolant level
3) Brake fluid level
4) Windshield washer fluid level
5) Battery solution level
6) Bonnet latch operation
Pull the Bonnet release handle inside the
vehicle. Make sure that you cannot open
the Bonnet all the way without releasingthe secondary latch. Be sure to close
the Bonnet securely after checking for
proper latch operation. See “All latches,
hinges & locks” of “CHASSIS AND
BODY” in the “Periodic Maintenance
Schedule” in the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section for lubrication
schedule.
w ww w
w WARNING
Make sure the bonnet is fully closed
and latched before driving. If it is not,
it can fly up unexpectedly during
driving, obstructing your view and
resulting in an accident.
Once a month, or each time you fill your
fuel tank, check the tyre pressure using a
tyre pressure gauge. Also check the tyre
pressure of the spare tyre.since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder
walls have not yet become conditioned. New
engines reach the normal level of oil
consumption only after approximately 5000
km (3000 miles) driving.
When judging the amount of oil consump-
tion, note that the oil may become diluted
and make it difficult to accurately judge the
true oil level.
As an example, if a vehicle is used for
repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-
mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not
show any drop in the oil level at all, even
after 1000 km (600 miles) or more of driv-
ing. This is because the oil is gradually
becoming diluted with fuel or moisture,
making it appear that the oil level has not
changed.
You should also be aware that the diluting
ingredients evaporate out when the vehicle
is subsequently driven at high speeds, such
as on an expressway, making it appear that
oil is excessively consumed after high-speed
driving.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
5-2
Engine Oil ConsumptionIt is normal for the engine to consume some
engine oil during normal vehicle operation.
The amount of engine oil consumed
depends on the viscosity of the oil, the
quality of the oil and the conditions the
vehicle is driven under.
More oil is consumed during high-speed
driving and when there is frequent acceler-
ation and deceleration. Under high loads,
your engine also will consume more oil.
A new engine also consumes more oil,

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.

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

Measure the clutch pedal play by moving
the clutch pedal with your hand and mea-
suring the distance it moves until you feel
slight resistance. The play in the clutchpedal should be between the specified val-
ues. If the play is more or less than the
above, or clutch dragging is felt with the
pedal fully depressed, have the clutch
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
Fluid Control Clutch (For Diesel)Check the clutch pedal for smooth operation
and brake fluid level from time to time.
If clutch dragging is felt with the pedal fully
depressed, have the clutch inspected by your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer. If the brake fluid
level is near the “MIN” line, fill it up to the
“MAX” line with Maruti Genuine brake fluid.

NOTICE
Driving with too much or too little
fluid can damage the transaxle.
You must check the fluid level with the
automatic transaxle fluid at normal operating
temperature.
To check the fluid level:
1) To warm up the transaxle fluid, drive the
vehicle for 20 more minutes.
NOTICE
Be sure to use the specified automatic
transaxle fluid. Using automatic
transaxle fluid other than SUZUKI ATF
3317 or Mobil ATF 3309 may damage
the automatic transaxle of your
vehicle.NOTE:

3) Apply the parking brake and then start
the engine in “P” (Park). Let it idle for
two minutes and keep it running during
the fluid level check.
4) With your foot on the brake pedal, move
the gearshift lever through each range,

(2) LOW HOT
(3) The lowest point = Fluid level
7) Add just enough specified fluid through
the dipstick hole to fill the transaxle to
the proper level.
