A WARNING
New and used oil can be hazardous.
Children and pets may be harmed by
swallowing new or used oil. Keep
new and used oil and used oil filters
away from children and pets.
Repeated,
prolonged contact with used engine oil may cause skin can­cer.
Brief contact with used oil may irri­tate skin. To minimize your exposure to used
oil, wear a long-sleeve shirt and
moisture-proof gloves (such as dish­washing gloves) when changing oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash thor­
oughly with soap and water.
Launder any clothing or rags if wet
with oil.
Recycle or properly dispose of used
oil and filters.
5) Reinstall the drain plug and gasket.
Tighten the plug with a wrench to the
specified torque.
6) Reinstall the engine under cover.

To tighten the oil filter properly, it is important to accurately identify the
position at which the filter gasket
first contacts the mounting surface.
5) Tighten the filter specified turn from the
point of contact with the mounting sur­face (or to the specified torque) using an oil filter wrench. 6) Reinstall the engine under cover.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Tightening torque for oil filter: Gasoline engine: 3/4 turn or 14 Nm (1.4 kg-m, 10.1 Ib-ft)
Diesel engine: 3/4 turn
CAUTION
To prevent oil leakage, make sure
that the oil filter is tight, but do not
over-tighten it.
NOTE: • When it is difficult to remove the oil filter, we recommend you take your vehicle to your SUZUKI dealer for oil filter replace­ment. • For 3.2 L engine, since spedal proce­dures are required, we recommend you take your vehicle to your SUZUKI dealer for oil filter replacement.

Gear Oil Level Check To check the gear oil level, use the follow­ing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface with
the parking brake applied. Then, stop
the engine.
2) Remove the oil filler plug (1). 3) Check the inside of the hole with your
finger. If the oil level comes up to the
bottom (transfer case: within 10 mm from the bottom) 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
