Improving Fuel Economy
The following instructions will help you improve fuel economy.
Avoid excessive idling If you are to wait for more than a minutewhile you are parked, stop the engine and start it again later. When warming up a cold engine, do not allow the engine to idleor apply full throttle until the engine has reached operating temperature. Allow the engine to warm up by driving.
Avoid “fast” starts Fast starts away from lights or stop signs will consume fuel unnecessarily andshorten 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 thenaccelerating again uses more fuel.
Keep a steady cruising speed Keep as constant a speed as road and traf- fic conditions will permit.
Keep the air cleaner clean
60A183S
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there will be greater intake resistance, resulting in decreased power output and increased fuel consumption.
NOTICE
To avoid damaging catalyst or othervehicle damage:• Maintain the engine in the properoperating condition.• In the event of an engine malfunc-tion, particularly one involving engine misfiring 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 transaxleis in gear and the vehicle is in motion.• Do not try to start the engine bypushing or towing the vehicle, orcoasting down a hill.• Do not idle the engine with anyspark plug wires disconnected orremoved, such as during diagnos- tic testing.• Do not idle the vehicle for pro-longed periods if idling seemsrough or there are other malfunc-tions.• Do not allow the fuel tank to getnear the empty level.• Avoid driving your vehicle atexcessively high engine speed inor around the red zone of thetachometer (if equipped).
WA R N I N G
Be careful in areas where you parkand 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 asdry grass or leaves can come in con- tact with a hot exhaust system.

Coolant ReplacementSince special procedures are required, we recommend you take your vehicle to your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer for coolant replacement.
Air Cleaner
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, therewill be greater intake resistance, resulting in decreased power output and increased fuel consumption.
(For Petrol Engine Model)
76MH0A109
Unclamp the upper clamps, and remove the element from the air cleaner case. If itappears to be dirty, replace it with a new one.
(For Diesel Engine Model)
76MH033
Unclamp the side clamps, and remove the element from the air cleaner case. If it appears to be dirty, replace it with a newone.
Spark Plugs
76MH0A109
68KH072
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 thespark plug gap.
To access the spark plugs: 1) Unclamp and remove the bolt, then remove the air cleaner case. 2) If necessary, disconnect the coupler (1)while pushing the release lever. 3) Remove the bolts. 4) Pull the ignition coils out.
NOTE: When installation, make sure the wires,couplers, sealing rubber of top cover and washers, are correctly returned in place.

Spark plug gap “a” NGK KR6A-10: 0.95 – 1.05 mm (0.037 – 0.041 in.)NOTICE
• When pulling the ignition coils out,do not pull on the cable. Pulling onthe cable can damage it. • When servicing the iridium/plati- num spark plugs (slender centerelectrode type plugs), do not touch the center electrode, as it is easy to damage.
Correct Wrong
EXAMPLE
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, 12.9 lb-ft). Donot 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.
