(1) Oil filter
(2) 3/4 turn5) Tighten the filter as specified below
from the point of contact with the
mounting surface (or to the specified
torque) using an oil filter wrench.
Tightening torque for oil filter:
3/4 turn or
14 Nm (1.4 kg -m, 10.3 lb-ft)
Refill with oil and oil leakage check1) Pour oil through the filler hole and
install the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to “Capacities” in the “SPECIFI-
CATIONS” section.
2) Start the engine and carefully check the oil filter and the drain plug for leakage.
Run the engine at various speeds for at
least 5 minutes.
3) Stop the engine and wait about 5 min- utes. Check the oil level again and add
oil if necessary. Check for leakage
again.
NOTICE
To tighten the oil filter properly, it is
important to accurately identify the
position at which the filter gasket
first contacts the mounting surface.
NOTICE
To prevent oil leakage, check that the
oil filter is tight, but do not over-
tighten it.
NOTICE
• When replacing the oil filter, it is recommended that you use a genu-
ine SUZUKI replacement filter. If
you use an aftermarket filter, check
that it is of equi valent quality and
follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
• Oil leakage from the periphery of the oil filter or drain plug indicate
incorrect installation or gasket
damage. If you find any leakage or
are not sure that the filter has been
properly tightened, have the vehi-
cle inspected by your SUZUKI
dealer.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
75RM4-01E
Engine coolantSelection of coolantTo maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use SUZUKI gen-
uine coolant or equivalent.
NOTE:
If you use the engine coolant other than
the SUZUKI LLC: Super (Blue) for replace-
ment, follow the schedule of SUZUKI LLC:
Standard (Green). To see the detail of the
maintenance schedule, refer to “Periodic
maintenance schedule” in this section.
This type of coolant is the best for cooling
system for the following reasons:
• The coolant helps maintain properengine temperature.
• It gives proper protection against freez- ing and boiling.
• It gives proper protection against corro- sion and rust. Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-
age your cooling system. Your authorized
SUZUKI dealer can help you select the
proper coolant.
Coolant level checkCheck the coolant le
vel at the reservoir
tank, not at the radiator. With the engine
cool, the coolant level should be between
“FULL” and “LOW” marks.Adding coolant
NOTICE
SUZUKI LLC: Super (Blue) coolant;
This coolant is already diluted to the
proper percentage. Do not dilute with
distilled water additionally. Doing so
may result in the possibility of freez-
ing and/or overheating coolant.
NOTICE
To avoid damaging your cooling sys-
tem:
• Always use a high quality ethylene
glycol base non-silicate type cool-
ant diluted with distilled water at
the correct mixture concentration.
• Check that the proper mix is 50/50
coolant to distill ed water and in no
case higher than 70/30. Concentra-
tions greater than 70/30 coolant to
distilled water will cause overheat-
ing conditions.
• Do not use straight coolant nor plain water (except SUZUKI LLC:
Super (Blue)).
• Do not add extra inhibitors or addi- tives. They may not be compatible
with your cooling system.
• Do not mix different types of base coolants. Doing so may result in
accelerated seal wear and/or the
possibility of severe overheating
and extensive engine or CVT (if
equipped) damage.
WA R N I N G
Swallowing engine coolant can cause
severe injury or death. Inhaling cool-
ant mist or vapors or getting coolant
in your eyes could result in severe
injury.
• Do not drink antifreeze or coolantsolution. If swallowed, do not
induce vomiting. Immediately con-
tact a poison control center or a
physician.
• Avoid inhaling coolant mist or hot
vapors. If inhaled, remove to a
fresh air area.
• If coolant gets in the eyes, flush
with water and seek medical atten-
tion.
• Wash thoroughly after handling
coolant.
• Keep engine coolant out of the
reach of children and pets.

(3) The lowest point = Fluid level
5) The handle of the CVT fluid dipstick is colored orange for ea sy identification.
Remove the dipstick, clean it and push
it back in until the cap seats. Then pull
out the dipstick.
6) Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the lowest level. The fluid level
should be between the two marks on
the dipstick.
Deterioration checking or changing oilSince special procedures, materials and
tools are required to check the deteriora-
tion of CVT oil or change, it is recom-
mended that you trust this job to your
authorized SUZUKI dealer.

(3) Oil filler and level plug 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 and level plug.
For the manual transaxle;
3) If gear oil flows from the plug hole, the
oil level is correct. Reinstall the plug. If
gear oil does not flow from the plug
hole, add oil through the filler plug hole
until oil flows a littl e from the plug hole.
For the transfer and rear differential;
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 and level plug hole
until the oil level reaches the bottom of
the filler hole, and then reinstall the
plug.
Tightening torque for oil filler and level
plug
Manual transaxle (1):
21 Nm (2.1 kg-m, 15.5 lb-ft)
Transfer (2):
27 Nm (2.7 kg-m, 19.5 lb-ft)
Rear differential (3):
50 Nm (5.0 kg-m, 36.9 lb-ft)
Gear oil changeSince special procedures, materials and
tools are required, ask your authorized
SUZUKI dealer for this job.

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