INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE9-13Replace the oil filter
1) Using an oil filter wrench, turn the oilfilter counterclockwise and remove it.
2) Using a clean rag, wipe off the mounting surface on the engine where the new
filter will be seated.
3) Smear a little engine oil around the rubber gasket of the new oil filter.
4) Screw on the new filter by hand until the filter gasket contacts the mounting
surface.
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 sur-
face (or to the specified torque) using an
oil filter wrench.
Tightening torque for oil filter
1 turn or
14 Nm (1.4 kg-m, 10.5 lb-ft)
CAUTION
Refill with oil and check for leaks.
1) Pour oil through the filler hole and install the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to the "CAPACITIES" item in the
"SPECIFICATIONS" section.
2) Start the engine and look carefully for leaks at the oil filter and drain plug. Run
the engine at various speeds for at least
5 minutes.
3) Stop the engine and wait for 5 minutes. Check the oil level again and add oil if
necessary. Check for leaks again.
When replacing the oil filter, it is
recommended that you use a genuine
MARUTI replacement filter.
Oil leaks from around the oil filter or
drain plug indicate incorrect installa-
tion or gasket damage. If you find any
leaks or are not sure that the filter
has been properly tightened, have the
vehicle inspected by your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer.

EXAMPLE When disconnecting the spark plugcables, pull on the boot, not on the
cable itself. Pulling on the cable can
damage it.
When installing the spark plugs, screw them in with your fingers to
avoid stripping the threads. Tighten
with a torque wrench to :
Alto - 13.0–22.0 N-m (1.3–2.2 kg-m,
9.4–15.9 lb-ft)
Alto K10 - 25 N-m (2.5 kg-m, 18.0
lb-ft).
Do not allow contaminants to enter
the engine through the spark plug
holes when the plugs are removed.
Never use spark plugs with the
wrong thread size or length.
CAUTION
When replacing spark plugs, you
should use the brand and type
specified for your vehicle. For the
specified plugs, refer to the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section at the end
of this book.NOTE:
When installation, make sure the wires,couplers, sealing rubber of top cover and

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
CLUTCH PEDAL
Measure the clutch pedal play by moving
the clutch pedal with your hand and
measuring the distance it moves until you
feel slight resistance. The play in the clutch
pedal should be between 15 – 20 mm (0.6
– 0.8 in) 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.

TYRESThe front and rear tyre pressure
specifications for your vehicle are listed on
the Tyre Inflation Pressure Label and in the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section at the end of
this book. Both the front and rear tyres
should have the specified tyre pressure.
Tyre Inspection
Inspect your vehicle’s tyres periodically by
performing the following checks:
1) Measure the air pressure with a tyre gauge. Adjust the pressure if necessary.
Remember to check the spare tyre too.
76G-09-030
Air pressures should be checkedwhen the tyres are cold or you may
get inaccurate readings.
Check the inflation pressure from time to time while inflating the tyre
gradually, until the specified
pressure is obtained.
Never underinflate or overinflate the tyres.
Underinflation can cause unusual
handling characteristics or can
cause the rim to slip on the tyre
bead, resulting in an accident or
damage to the tyre or rim.
Overinflation can cause the tyre to
burst, resulting in personal injury.
Overinflation can also cause
unusual handling characteristics
which may result in an accident.
