“Malfunction Indicator” Light
Your vehicle has a computer-controlled
emission control system. A “Malfunction
Indicator” light is provided on the instrument
panel to indicate when it is necessary to
have the emission control system serviced.
The “Malfunction Indicator” light comes on
when the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
and goes out when the engine is started.
If the “Malfunction Indicator” light comes on
when the engine is running, there is a
problem with the emission control system.
Take the vehicle to your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer to have the problem corrected.
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
the “Malfunction Indicator” light is on
can cause permanent damage to the
vehicle’s emission control system, and
can affect fuel economy and
driveability.

travelled on short trips or between fuel
stops.
Keep track of your odometer reading
and check the maintenance schedule
regularly for required services.
Increased wear or damage to certain
parts can result from failure to
perform required services at the
proper mileage intervals.

TEMPERATURE WARNING
LIGHT (Red Color)When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, this light comes on briefly so
you can check that the light is working. If
this light blinks while driving, it means the
engine is running hot. Avoid driving condi-
tions that may lead to actual overheating.
If the light stays on without blinking, then
the engine is overheating. Follow the in-
structions in the “If the Engine Over heats”
of “EMERGENCY SERVICE” section.
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
engine overheating is indicated can
result in severe engine damage.
CAUTION
76G-05-019
FUEL GAUGEWhen the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position, this gauge gives an approximate
indication of the amount of fuel in the fuel
tank. “F” stands for full and “E” stands for
empty.
When the fuel meter indicator shows only
one segment to “E”, refill the tank as soon
as possible.Note:
If the last segment blinks, it means that the
fuel tank is almost empty.
Note:
The fuel level indicator varies depending on
road conditions (for example, slope or
curve) and driving conditions because of
fuel moving in the tank.
76G-05-018
The tachometer indicates engine speed
in revolutions per minute.
76G-05-013C
Never drive with the engine speed in-
dicator in the red zone (1) or severe
engine damage can result.
When downshifting to a lower gear,
make sure not to operate with exces-
sive revolution speeds of the engine.
Refer to “Downshifting maximum allow-
able speeds” in the “OPERATING
YOUR VEHICLE” section.

Defrosting
Move the function lever/knob to “DEFROST”
and the air intake lever to “FRESH AIR”,
the temperature control lever/knob to the
desired temperature position, and the fan
switch to “HIGH” Moving the temperature
control lever/knob to a higher temperature
position increases defrosting efficiency.
When the windscreen has become clear,
move the fan switch to the desired fan
speed position.
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
(if equipped)If your vehicle is equipped with air
conditioner, it has an A/C button located on
the heater control panel. The air conditioning
system can be used to provide cooling and
dehumidifying, as described below. To turn
on the air conditioning system, push in the
A/C button and move the fan switch to a
position other than “OFF”. An indicator light
will come on when the air conditioning
system is on. To turn off the air conditioning
system, push the A/C button again.
During operation of the air conditioner, you
may notice slight changes in engine speed.
These changes are normal, the system is
designed so that the compressor turns on
or off to maintain the desired temperature.
Less operation of the compressor results in
better fuel economy.

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTIf you need to replace the fuel cap,
use only a cap specified for your
model. Using an improper fuel cap
can cause a serious malfunction of
the fuel system. You can get the
correct replacement cap from your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer. The fuel tank filler cap has a "screw-on
ratcheting type" feature.
To remove - turn the cap counter clock-
wise. Turn the cap slowly to allow any
residual pressure to escape.
To install - turn the cap clockwise and
tighten it securely until a "ratcheting"
(clicking) sound is heard. The
"ratcheting" sound indicates that the cap
is on properly.
