Changing WheelsTo change a wheel, use the following pro-
cedure:
1) Remove the jack, tools and spare wheel
from the vehicle.
2) Loosen, but do not remove the wheel
nuts.
3) Jack up the vehicle (follow the jacking
instructions in this section).
4) Remove the wheel nuts and wheel.
5) Before installing the new wheel, clean
any mud or dirt off from the surface of
the nuts wheel and hub with a clean
cloth. Clean the hub carefully; it may be
hot from driving.
6) Install the new wheel and replace the
wheel nuts with their cone shaped end
facing the wheel. Tighten each nut
snugly by hand until the wheel is
securely seated on the hub.

(1) or (2) Flat end tool
Your vehicle includes two tools, a wheel
brace and a jack crank, one of which has a
flat end.
Use the tool with the flat end to remove the
full wheel cap, as shown above.

When installing the cover, make sure that it
is positioned so that it does not cover or
foul the air valve.
WARNING
 Be sure to shift into “P” (Park) in
CVT, or shift into “R” (Reverse) in
manual transaxle when you jack up
the vehicle.
 Never jack up the vehicle with the
transaxle in “N” (Neutral). Other-
wise, unstable jack may cause an
accident.
Wheel tightening torque
140 Nm (103.3 lb-ft, 14.3 kg-m)
WARNING
Use genuine wheel nuts and tighten
them to the specified torque as soon
as possible after changing wheels.
Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly
tightened wheel nuts may come
loose or fall off, which can result in
an accident. If you do not have a
torque wrench, have the wheel nut
torque checked by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.

4. Make the final connection to an
unpainted, heavy metal part (i.e.
engine hook (3)) of the engine of the
vehicle with the discharged battery
(1).
4) If the booster battery you are using is
installed on 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
discharged battery.
6) Remove the jumper cables in the exact
reverse order in which you connected
them.
Towing a Disabled VehicleEmergency TowingIf your vehicle is disabled, it may be towed
by a tow truck using one of the following
methods:
1) Tow the vehicle with two wheels lifted
by the tow truck and the other two
wheels on a towing dolly.
2) Use the appropriate towing method
specified for your vehicle in the “Towing
Your Vehicle (recreational towing)” sec-
tion, but with the wheels lifted by the
tow truck instead of on a towing dolly.
Be sure to carefully follow the specific
instructions provided in the “Towing
Your Vehicle (recreational towing)” sec-
tion.
If the Starter Does Not
Operate1) While bringing the remote controller
with you, place the gearshift lever in the
“P” position and depress the brake
pedal.
2) Try pressing the engine switch to
change the ignition mode to “START”
with the headlights turned on to deter-
mine the battery condition. If the head-
lights go excessively dim or go off, it
usually means that either the battery
has run down or battery terminal con-
tact is poor. Recharge the battery or
correct battery terminal contact if nec-
essary.
3) 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 authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
WARNING
Never connect the jumper cable
directly to the negative (–) terminal of
the discharged battery, or an explo-
sion may occur.
CAUTION
If vehicle damage (such as steering
or drivetrain damage, etc.) prevents
normal use of the towing procedures
for your vehicle described in the
“Towing Your Vehicle (recreational
towing)” section, have your vehicle
towed with two wheels lifted by the
tow truck and the other two wheels
on a towing dolly.

APPEARANCE CARE
57L20-03E
carefully follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions and precautions.
Instrument panel and console
NOTE:
Wipe up spills containing chemicals, alco-
hol, etc., immediately with a soft, damp
cloth. Use a mild soap solution if neces-
sary. Do not use cleaners or polishes con-
taining strong solvents or acidic solutions.
These chemicals may stain and discolor
the instrument panel and console.Cleaning the Exterior
Cleaning the Center Pillar Garnishing
57L60003
(1) Center pillar garnishing
NOTE:
 The garnishing is vulnerable to damage.
Use chamois or a soft cloth to clean it. It
can be damaged even when wiped with
tissue paper.
 If the garnishing is damaged, you may
repair it to some extent by using a mate-
rial such as headlight polish (commer-
cially available).
 Do not use any chemical products that
contain the following substances for
cleaning, as these will cause cracks and
deformation to the garnishing. Also be
sure to thoroughly read the precautions
on the product’s container.
– Solvents such as benzine, gasoline,
paint thinner, sticker removing solvent,
etc.– Palm oil based detergent
Caring for Aluminum WheelsNOTE:
 Do not use an acidic or alkaline deter-
gent to wash aluminum wheels. These
types of detergent will cause permanent
spots, discoloration and cracks on fin-
ished surfaces.
 Do not use a bristle brush and soap con-
taining an abrasive material. These will
damage finished surfaces.
 Use the same wax you use for the body
surfaces also for waxing aluminum
wheels to protect their clear finish.
CAUTION
It is important that your vehicle be
kept clean and free from dirt. Failure
to keep your vehicle clean may result
in fading of the paint or corrosion to
various parts of the vehicle body.

WashingWhen washing the vehicle, follow the
instructions below:
1) Flush the underside of body and wheel
housings with pressurized water to
remove mud and debris. Use plenty of
water.2) Rinse the body to loosen the dirt.
Remove dirt and mud from the body
exterior with running water. You may
use a soft sponge or brush. Do not use
hard materials which can scratch the
paint or plastic. Remember that the
headlight covers or lenses are made of
plastic in many cases.
3) Wash the entire exterior with a mild
detergent or car wash soap using a
sponge or soft cloth. The sponge or
cloth should be frequently soaked in the
soap solution.4) Once the dirt has been completely
removed, rinse off the detergent with
running water.
5) After rinsing, wipe off the vehicle body
with a wet chamois or cloth and allow it
to dry in the shade.
6) Check carefully for damage to painted
surfaces. If there is any damage,
“touch-up” the damage following the
procedure below:
1. Clean all damaged spots and allow
them to dry.
2. Stir the paint and “touch-up” the
damaged spots lightly using a small
brush.
3. Allow the paint to dry completely.
WARNING
 Never attempt to wash and wax
your vehicle with the engine run-
ning.
 If your vehicle is equipped with an
rain-sensing wiper system, place
the wiper control lever in the “OFF”
position. If the lever is left in the
“AUTO” position, the wipers could
unexpectedly operate and cause an
injury, and could also be damaged.
 When cleaning the underside of the
body and fender, where there may
be sharp-edged parts, you should
wear gloves and a long-sleeved
shirt to protect your hands and
arms from being cut.
 After washing your vehicle, care-
fully test the brakes before driving
to make sure they have maintained
their normal effectiveness.
CAUTION
 When washing the vehicle, avoid
directing steam or hot water of
more than 80°C (176°F) on plastic
parts.
 To avoid damaging engine compo-
nents, do not use pressurized
water in the engine compartment.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the paint or plas-
tic surface, do not wipe the dirt off
without ample water. Be sure to fol-
low above procedure.
CAUTION
When using a commercial car wash
product, observe the cautions speci-
fied by the manufacturer. Never use
strong household detergents or
soaps.
CAUTION
If you use an automatic car wash,
make sure that your vehicle’s body
parts, such as spoilers, cannot be
damaged. If you are in doubt, consult
the car wash operator for advice.
