DRIVING TIPS
67LH3-74E
74LHM0403
Improving Fuel EconomyThe following instructions will help you
improve fuel economy.
Avoid excessive idling
If you are to wait for more than a minute
while you are parked, stop the engine and
start it again later. When warming up a
cold engine, do not allow the engine to idle
or apply full throttle until the engine has
reached operating temperature. Allow the
engine to warm up by driving.
Avoid sudden acceleration
Sudden acceleration starting from rest or
while driving will consume fuel unneces-
sarily and shorten engine life. Start off
slowly.
Avoid unnecessary stops
Avoid unnecessary deceleration and stop-
ping. Try to maintain a slow, steady speed
whenever possible. Slowing down and
then accelerating again uses more fuel.
Keep a steady cruising speed
Keep as constant a speed as road and
traffic conditions will permit.
NOTICE
To minimize the possibility of catalyst
or other vehicle damage:
Maintain the engine in the properoperating condition.
In the event of an engine malfunc- tion, particularly one involving
engine misfire or other apparent
loss of performance, have the vehi-
cle serviced promptly.
Do not turn off the engine or inter- rupt the ignition when the transaxle
is in gear and the vehicle is in
motion.
Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle, or
coasting down a hill.
Do not idle the engine with any spark plug wires disconnected or
removed, such as during diagnos-
tic testing.
Do not idle the vehicle for pro-
longed periods if idling seems
rough or there are other malfunc-
tions.
Do not allow the fuel tank to get near the empty level.
Avoid driving your vehicle at
excessively high engine speeds, in
or around the red zone of the
tachometer (if equipped).
WA R N I N G
Be careful where you park and drive;
the catalytic converter and other
exhaust components can get very
hot. As with any vehicle, do not park
or operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry
grass or leaves can come in contact
with a hot exhaust system.EXAMPLE

reaches the “FULL” mark. Never fill the res-
ervoir tank above the “FULL” mark.
(For Diesel Engine Model)
LHT0705
If the coolant level is below the “LOW”
mark, more coolant should be added.
When the engine is cool, remove the
degassing tank cap by turning it anticlock-
wise slowly to release any pressure. And
add coolant until the degassing tank level
reaches the “FULL” mark. Never fill the
degassing tank above the “FULL” mark.Coolant ReplacementCoolant replacement work requires techni-
cal skill. Do not replace the coolant by
yourself. Trust this job to Maruti Suzuki
Authorised Dealer workshop or service
station.Air Cleaner(For Petrol Engine Model)
74LHT0713
(For Diesel Engine Model)
74LHT0702
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there
will be greater intake resistance, resulting
in decreased power output and increased
fuel consumption.
Unclamp/unscrew the side clamps/screws,
and remove the element from the air
cleaner case. If it appears to be dirty,
replace it with a new one.Spark Plugs (Petrol Engine)

NOTICE
When putting the cap on the reser-
voir tank, line up the mark on the cap
and the mark on the tank. Failure to
follow this can result in coolant leak-
age.
WA R N I N G
It is hazardous to remove the reser-
voir tank cap (degassing tank cap) for
a diesel engine when the water tem-
perature is high, because scalding
fluid and steam may be blown out
under pressure. Wait until the coolant
temperature has lowered before
removing the cap.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
74LH0-74E
52KM122
For nickel spark plugs (traditional
type):You should inspect spark plugs periodically
for carbon deposits. When carbon accu-
mulates on a spark plug, a strong spark
may not be produced. Remove carbon
deposits with a wire or pin and adjust the
spark plug gap.
To access the spark plugs:
1) Unclamp the air cleaner cover.
2) Remove the engine top cover.
3) If necessary, disconnect the coupler (1)
while pushing the release lever.
4) Remove the igniter bolts.5) Pull the
spark plug boots out.
NOTE:
When installation, make sure the wires,
couplers, sealing rubber of top cover and
washers, are correctly returned in place.

60G160S54G106
Spark plug gap “a”
1.0 mm +/- 0.05 mm
NOTICE
When disconnecting the spark plug
cables, pull on the boot, not on the
cable itself. Pulling on the cable
can damage it.
When servicing the iridium/plati-
num spark plugs (slender center
electrode type plugs), do not touch
the center electrode, as it is easy to
damage.
NOTICE
When installing the spark plugs,
screw them in with your fingers to
avoid stripping the threads.
Tighten with a torque wrench to
17.5 Nm (1.8 kg-m, 12.916 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.
NOTICE
When replacing spark plugs, you
should use the brand and type speci-
fied for your vehicle. For the speci-
fied spark plugs, refer to the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section at the
end of this book. If you wish to use a
brand of spark plug other than the
specified plugs, consult your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

NOTE:
If your engine is equipped with the high
tension cord type ignition wiring and you
experience some firing problem of spark
plugs, such as, hard engine-starting, mis-
fire etc., the cause may be located not only
on spark plugs but also on deteriorated
ignition wirings (generally, used for more
than 80,000 km or five years). If spark plug
replacement does not solve the problem,
have the ignition wiring and other ignition
system inspected by your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer.Gear OilManual Transaxle Oil / Auto Gear
Shift OilWhen adding gear oil, use gear oil with the
appropriate viscosity and grade.
We highly recommend you use:
"MARUTI SUZUKI GEAR OIL 75W-80" for
manual transaxle gear oil or Auto Gear
Shift Oil.
Gear Oil Level CheckManual transmission
74LHT0714
(1) Oil filler and level plug
(for Petrol engine model)
(2) Oil filler and level plug
(for diesel engine model)
To check the gear oil level, use the fol-
lowing 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) or (2) .
3) Check the inside of the hole with your
finger. If the oil level comes up to 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) or (2)
until the oil level reaches the bottom of
the filler hole, then reinstall the plug.

EXAMPLE
CAUTION
After driving the vehicle, the trans-
mission oil temperature may be high
enough to burn you. Wait until the oil
filler plug is cool enough to touch
with your bare hands before inspect-
ing transmission oil level.
NOTICE
When tightening the plug, apply the
following sealing compound or
equivalent to the plug threads to pre-
vent oil leakage.

6) The handle of the A/T fluid dipstick is
colored red for easy identification.
Remove the dipstick, clean it and push
it back in until the cap seats. Then pull
out the dipstick.
7) 7) Check both sides of the dipstick, and
read the lowest level. The fluid level
should be between the two marks in the
“HOT” range on the dipstick.(1) FULL HOT
(2) LOW HOT
(3) The lowest point = Fluid level
8) Add just enough specified fluid through
the dipstick hole to fill the transaxle oil
to the proper level.
Changing Oil
Since special procedures, materials, and
tools are required to change the automatic
transaxle oil, it is recommended that you
trust this job to your authorized MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer.
Fuel Filter (Diesel Engine)
74LHT0703
The fuel filter works as a water sedimentor
as well.
Drain water according to the Periodic
Maintenance Schedule. To drain water:
1) Remove the battery. (Refer to “Battery”
in this section.)
2) Place a pan or ample rag under the fuel
filter drain nozzle.
3) Loosen the drain knob. The water will
be drained.
4) Tighten the drain knob when the water
changes to the diesel fuel.
5) Tighten the drain knob.
Tightening torque for drain knob
