INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Drive belt
A WARNING
When the engine is running, keep hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away from the moving fan and drive belts.
Check that the drive belt tension is correct while the engine is stopped. If the belt is too loose, insufficient battery charging, engine overheating, poor air conditioning, or excessive belt wear can result. When you push the belt with your thumb midpoint between the pulleys, there should be a deflection according to the following chart.
The belts should also be examined to ensure that they are not damaged.
If you need to replace or adjust the belt have it done by a SUZUKI dealer.

Check that the engine oil you use comes under the quality classification as listed below: • ACEA A1/81, A3/83, A3/84, AS/85 • API SL, SM, SN • ILSAC GF-3, GF-4, GF-5 Select the appropriate oil viscosity according to the above chart.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE: SUZUKI highly recommends the use of ECSTAR brand coolant. ECSTAR has been specially formulated for your SUZUKI product and contributes to the desired vehicle performance and ideal driving experience.
Coolant level check
Check the coolant level at the reservoir tank, not at the radiator. With the engine cool, the coolant level should be between "FULL" and "LOW" marks.
Adding coolant
,A WARNING
Swallowing engine coolant can cause severe injury or death. Inhaling coolant mist or vapors or getting coolant in your eyes could result in severe injury. • Do not drink antifreeze or coolant solution. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Immediately contact a poison control center or a physician. • Avoid inhaling coolant mist or hot vapors. If inhaled, remove to a fresh air area. (Continued)
6-29
,A WARNING
(Continued) • If coolant gets in the eyes, flush with water and seek medical attention. Wash thoroughly after handling coolant. Keep engine coolant out of the reach of children and pets.
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 freezing and/or overheating coolant.
NOTICE
SUZUKI LLC: Standard (Green) coolant; • The mixture you use should contain 50% concentration of antifreeze. If the lowest ambient temperature in your area is expected lo be -35°C (-31'F) or below, use higher concentrations up to 60% following the instructions on the antifreeze container.
78RB07005
If the coolant level is below "LOW" mark, coolant should be added. While the engine is cool, remove the reservoir tank cap and add coolant until the reservoir tank level reaches "FULL" mark. Never fill the reservoir tank above "FULL" mark.
NOTICE
When putting the cap on the reservoir tank, line up the mark on the cap and the mark on the tank. Failure to follow this can result in coolant leakage.
Coolant replacement
Since special procedures are required, ask a SUZUKI dealer for this job.
Air cleaner
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there will be greater intake resistance, resulting in decreased power output and increased fuel consumption.

1) Unclampthe clamps (1). 2) Hold up the air cleaner upper case. 3) Remove the element from the air cleaner case. If it appears to be dirty, clean or replace it with a new one. 4) If the element is installed on the air cleaner case, confirm the mark of "FRONT" on the element and fit the boss of the element in the groove of the front on the air cleaner case. 5) Clamp the clamps securely.

To access the spark plug: 1) Disconnect the coupler (1) while pushing the release lever. 2) Remove the bolt (2). 3) Pull out the ignition coil (3) straight.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE: During installation, check that the wires, couplers, sealing rubber of air cleaner chassis and washers, are correctly returned in place.

NOTICE
When pulling out the ignition coils, do not pull on the cable. Pulling on the cable can damage it. • When servicing the iridium/platinum spark plugs (slender center electrode type plugs), do not touch the center electrode, as it is easy to be damaged.

Brake discs and brake drums
Brake disc
Brake location Minimum thickness
Front wheels 8.0 mm (0.3 in.)
Brake drum
Brake location Maximum inner diameter
Rear wheels 222 mm (8.74 in.)
If the measured thickness or inner diameter of the most worn part falls below or exceeds the value indicated above, the parts should be replaced with a new one. The measurement 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 relevant repair information site.
Steering wheel
78RB07012
Steering wheel play 11c": 0-30 mm (0.0 -1.2 in.)
Check the free play of the steering wheel by gently turning it from left to right and measuring 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 rattling 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 a SUZUKI dealer.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Tyres
78RB07013
The front and rear tyre pressure specifications are listed in the tyre information label. Both front and rear tyres should have the specified tyre pressure.
NOTE: The tyre pressure will change due to changes in atmospheric pressure, temperature or tyre temperature when driving. To reduce the chance that the low tyre pressure warning light (if equipped) will come on due to normal changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure, it is important to check and adjust the tyre pressures when the tyres are cold. If you check tyres after driving, they are warm. Even if the tyre pressure seems to be good in this condition, it could fall below the
6-36
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
specified pressure when tyres cool down. Also, tyres that are inflated to the specified pressure in a warm garage may have pressure below the specification when the vehicle is driven outside in very cold temperature. If you adjust the tyre pressure in a garage that is warmer than the outside temperature, you should add 1 kPa to the recommended cold tyre pressure for every O.B'C difference between garage temperature and outside temperature.
6-37
Tyre inspection
Inspect your vehicle's tyres at least once a month or before long trip by performing the following checks:
1) Measure the air pressure with a tyre gauge. Adjust the pressure if necessary. Remember to check the spare tyre, too.
A WARNING
• Air pressures should be checked when the tyres are cold or you may get inaccurate readings. Check the inflation pressure from time to time while inflating the tyre gradually, until the specified pressure is obtained. Never under-inflate or over-inflate the tyres. Under-inflation can cause unusual handling characteristics or can cause the rim to slip on the tyre bead, resulting in an accident or damage to the tyre or rim. Over-inflation can cause the lyre to burst, resulting in personal injury. Over-inflation can also cause unusual handling characteristics which may result in an accident.

(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 tyres have molded-in tread wear indicators in the grooves. When the indicators appear on the tread surface, the remaining depth of the tread is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.) or less and the tyre should be replaced. 3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks and damage. Any tyres with cracks or other damage should be replaced. If any tyres show abnormal wear, have them inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.

The main fuse, primary fuses and some of the individual fuses are located in the engine compartment. If the main fuse blows, no electrical component will function. If a primary fuse blows, no electrical component in the corresponding load group will function. When replacing the main fuse, a primary fuse or an individual fuse, use a genuine SUZUKI replacement parts or equivalent for individual fuses. To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller provided in the fuse box. The amperage of each fuse is shown in the back of the fuse box cover.
