NOTE: It is normal for water to drip from the air conditioning system after use.
4) Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched.5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights, brake lights and horn for proper opera- tion.6) Adjust the seat and head restraint (if equipped). 7) Check the brake pedal and the parkingbrake lever. 8) Adjust the mirrors. 9) Make sure that you and all passengershave properly fastened your seat belts. 10)Make sure that all warning lights come on as the key is turned to the “ON” posi-tion. 11)Check all gauges. 12)Make sure that the BRAKE SYSTEMWARNING light turns off when the parking brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel tank, perform the following under-hood checks:
1) Engine oil level 2) Coolant level3) Brake fluid level 4) Windshield washer fluid level 5) Battery solution level6) Hood latch operation Pull the hood release handle inside the vehicle. Make sure that you cannotopen the hood all the way without
releasing the secondary latch. Be sure to close the hood securely after check- ing for proper latch operation. See “Alllatches, hinges & locks” of “CHASSIS AND BODY” in the “Periodic Mainte- nance Schedule” in the “INSPECTIONAND MAINTENANCE” section for lubri- cation schedule.
Once a month, or each time you fill your fuel tank, check the tire pressure using a tire pressure gauge. Also check the tirepressure of the spare tire.
Engine Oil Consumption
It is normal for the engine to consume some engine oil during normal vehicle operation.
The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the viscosity of the oil, thequality of the oil and the conditions the vehicle is driven under. More oil is consumed during high-speeddriving and when there is frequent acceler- ation and deceleration. Under high loads, your engine also will consume more oil.A new engine also consumes more oil, since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder
walls have not yet become conditioned. New engines reach the normal level of oil consumption only after approximately 5000km (3000 miles) driving.
Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L per 1000 km (1 Qt. per 600 miles)
When judging the amount of oil consump- tion, note that the oil may become diluted and make it difficult to accurately judge thetrue oil level. As an example, if a vehicle is used for repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not show any drop in the oil level at all, even after 1000 km (600 miles) or more of driv-ing. This is because the oil is gradually becoming diluted with fuel or moisture, making it appear that the oil level has notchanged. You should also be aware that the diluting ingredients evaporate out when the vehicleis subsequently driven at high speeds, such as on an expressway, making it appear that oil is excessively consumedafter high-speed driving.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched before driv ing. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly duringdriving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.

Tires

The front and rear tire pressure specifica- tions for your vehicle are listed on the TireInformation Label. Both the front and rear tires should have the specified tire pres- sure.Note that the value does not apply to the compact spare tire, if equipped.
Tire InspectionInspect your vehicle’s tires at least once a month by performing the following checks:
1) Measure the air pressure with a tire gauge. Adjust the pressure if neces- sary. Remember to check the spare tire, too.
52KM110
(1) Tread wear indicator(2) Indicator location mark
2) Check that the depth of the tread groove is more than 1.6 mm (0.06 in.).To help you check this, the tires have molded-in tread wear indicators in the grooves. When the indicators appearon the tread surface, the remaining depth of the tread is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.) or less and the tire should be replaced.3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks and damage. Any tires with cracks or other damage should be replaced. If any tiresshow abnormal wear, have them inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
4) Check for loose wheel nuts. 5) Check that there are no nails, stones orother objects sticking into the tires.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
• Air pressures should be checkedwhen the tires are cold or you mayget inaccurate readings. • Check the inflation pressure from time to time whil e inflating the tire gradually, until the specified pres- sure is obtained. • Never under inflate or over inflatethe tires. Under inflation can cause unusual handling characteristics or cancause the rim to slip on the tire bead, resulting in an accident or damage to the tire or rim.• Overinflation can cause the tire to burst, resulting in personal injury. Overinflation can also causeunusual handling characteristics which may result in an accident.

1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground. 2) Set the parking brake firmly and shift into “R” (Reverse).
3) Turn on the hazard warning flasher if your vehicle is near traffic. 4) Block the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite of the wheel beinglifted. 5) Place the spare wheel near the wheel being lifted as shown in the illustrationin case that the jack slips.

After using the tire changing tools, besure to stow them securely or theycan cause injury if an accident occurs.
CAUTION
The jack should be used only to change wheels. It is important to readthe jacking instructions in this sec- tion before attemp ting to use the jack.
WA R N I N G
• Be sure to shift into “R” (Reverse) when you jack up the vehicle.• Never jack up the vehicle with the transaxle in “N” (Neutral). Other- wise, unstable jack may cause anaccident.

*1: When tire replacement is necessary and if the specified load index and speed rated tire is not available, then use a tire of higher load index and speed rating.
*2: The spare wheel provided with alloy wheel variant is steel wheel rim, hence follow 4 tire rotation only. (Refer: under section
