INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
75RM4-01E
Parking brake
54G109
Ratchet tooth specification “b”:
4th – 9th
Lever pull force (1):
200 N (20 kg, 45 lbs)
Check the parking brake for proper adjust-
ment by counting the number of clicks
made by the ratchet teeth as you slowly
pull up on the parking brake lever to the
point of full engagement. The parking
brake lever should stop between the speci-
fied ratchet teeth and the rear wheels
should be securely locked. If the parking
brake is not properly adjusted or the
brakes drag after the lever has been fully
released, have the park ing brake inspected
and/or adjusted by your SUZUKI dealer.

If the measured thickness or inner diame-
ter of the most worn part exceeds the
value indicated above, the parts should be
replaced with a new one. The measure-
ment involves disassembling each brake
and requires the use of a micrometer or
caliper, which must be done according to
the instructions described in the relevant
service manual or available from the rele-
vant repair information site.
Steering
75RM035
Steering wheel play “c”:
0 – 30 mm (0.0 – 1.2 in.)
Check the play of the steering wheel by
gently turning it from left to right and mea-
suring the distance that it moves before
you feel slight resistance. The play should
be between the specified values.
Check that the steering wheel turns easily
and smoothly without r attling by turning it
all the way to the right and to the left while
driving very slowly in an open area. If the
amount of free play is not as specified or
you find anything else to be wrong, an
inspection must be performed by your
SUZUKI dealer.

EMERGENCY SERVICE
75RM4-01E
Using compressor to inflate a tire1) Place the vehicle on level, hard ground.
Set the parking brake firmly and shift
into “P” (Park) if your vehicle has a
CVT, or shift into “R” (Reverse) if your
vehicle has a manual transaxle or Auto
Gear Shift.
2) Take out the compressor.
3) Unscrew the valve cap from the tire valve.
4) Connect the air ho se of the compressor
to the tire valve.
5) Connect the power plug of the com- pressor to the accessory socket. For a
manual transaxle or an Auto Gear Shift
vehicle, shift from “R” (Reverse) into “N”
(Neutral). Start the engine. Switch on
the compressor. Inflate the tire to the
required air pressure.
Jump-starting instructions
1) Use only a 12-volt lead-acid battery to
jump-start your vehicle. Position the
good 12-volt lead-acid battery close to
your vehicle so that the jump leads will
reach both batteries. When using a bat-
tery installed on another vehicle, check
that two vehicles do not touch each
other. Set the parking brakes fully on
both vehicles.
2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).
NOTICE
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes. It can cause
overheating of the compressor.
WA R N I N G
• Never attempt to jump-start your
vehicle if the lead-acid battery
appears to be frozen. Batteries in
this condition may explode.
• When making jump lead connec- tions, check that your hands and
the jump leads remain clear from
pulleys, belts or fans.
• Lead-acid batteries produce flam-
mable hydrogen gas. Keep flames
and sparks away from the battery
or an explosion may occur. Never
smoke when working near the bat-
tery.
• If the booster ba ttery you use for
jump-starting is installed in another
vehicle, check that the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your lead-acid battery discharges repeatedly, for no apparent reason,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam- age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump-starting instructions
below.
If you are in doubt, call for qualified
road service.
NOTICE
Your vehicle should not be started by
pushing or towing. This starting
method could result in permanent
damage to the catalytic converter.
Use jump leads to start a vehicle with
a weak or flat battery.
