Always be sure to replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the correct amper- age. Never use a substitute such as aluminum foil or wire to replace ablown fuse. If you replace a fuse and the new one blows in a short period of time, you may have a major electri-cal problem. Have your vehicle inspected immediately by your MAR- UTI SUZUKI dealer.
BLOWN OK
CAUTION
• Light bulbs can be hot enough toburn your finger right after being turned off. This is true especially for halogen headlight bulbs.Replace the bulbs after they become cool enough. • The headlight bulbs are filled withpressurized halogen gas. They can burst and injure you if they are hit or dropped. Handle them carefully.
NOTICE
The oils from your skin may cause ahalogen bulb to overheat and burst when the lights are on. Grasp a new bulb with a clean cloth.
NOTICE
Frequent replacement of a bulb indi-cates the need for an inspection of the electrical system. This should be carried out by your MARUTI SUZUKIdealer.

If the Starter Does Not
Operate
1) Try turning the ignition switch to the “START” position with the headlights turned on to determine the battery con- dition. If the headlights go excessivelydim or go off, it usually means that either the battery is flat or the battery terminal contact is poor. Recharge thebattery or correct battery terminal con- tact as necessary. 2) If the headlights remain bright, checkthe 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 MAR- UTI SUZUKI dealer.
If the Engine is Flooded
If the engine is flooded with petrol, it may be hard to start. If this happens, press theaccelerator pedal all the way to the floor and hold it there while cranking the engine. For petrol engine model, do not operatethe starter motor for more than 12 sec- onds. For diesel engine model, do not operatethe starter motor for more than 30 sec- onds.
If the Engine Overheats
The engine could overheat temporarily under severe driving conditions. If the highengine coolant temperature warning light comes on as overheating during driving: 1) Turn off the air conditioner, if equipped.2) Take the vehicle to a safe place and park. 3) Let the engine run at the normal idlespeed for a few minutes until the high engine coolant temperature warning light goes off.
If the high engine coolant temperature warning light does not go off: 1) Turn off the engine and check that the water pump belt and pulleys are notdamaged or slipping. If any abnormality is found, correct it.
2) Check the coolant level in the reservoir. If it is found to be lower than the “LOW” line, look for leaks at the radiator, waterpump, and radiator and heater hoses. If you locate any leaks that may have caused the overheating, do not run theengine until these problems have been corrected. 3) If you do not find a leak, carefully addcoolant to the reservoir and then the radiator, if necessary. (Refer to “Engine Coolant” in the “INSPECTION ANDMAINTENANCE” section.)
NOTE: If your engine overheats and you are unsure what to do, contact your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

If you see or hear escaping steam,stop the vehicle in a safe place andimmediately turn off the engine to let it cool. Do not open the hood when steam is present. When the steamcan no longer be seen or heard, open the hood to see if the coolant is still boiling. If it is, you must wait until itstops boiling before you proceed.

Warning Triangle
MHO-07-001
In case of vehicle break-down or during emergency stopping, where, your vehiclecould become a potential traffic hazard, keep the warning triangle, provided with your vehicle, on the road free from anyobstacles behind your vehicle so as to warn the approaching traffic, at an approxi- mate distance of 50-100 m. The reflecting side of the triangle should face the on com- ing traffic. Please activate the hazardwarning lamps before alighting the vehicle to keep the warning triangle.

Remove the warning triangle carefullyfrom the cover as shown by arrow 1. Open both the reflector arms as shownby arrow and lock the arms with each other with the clip provided in the right arm. Open the bottom stand in counterclock-wise direction as shown by arrow 3. Position the warning triangle behind the vehicle on a plain surface. Reverse the removal procedure for keep- ing inside the cover.

• It is hazardous to remove the radia- tor cap (or degassing tank cap for adiesel engine) when the water tem- perature is high, because scalding fluid and steam may be blown outunder pressure. The cap should only be taken off when the coolant temperature has lowered.• To help prevent personal injury, keep hands, tools and clothing away from the engine cooling fanand air-conditioner fan (if equipped). These electric fans can automatically turn on without warn- ing.
