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
A CAUTION
Hitting curbs and running over rocks can damage tyres and affect wheel alignment. Have tyres and wheel alignment checked periodically by a SUZUKI dealer.
4) Check for loose wheel nuts. 5) Check that there are no nails, stones or other objects sticking into the tyres.
A WARNING
• Your SUZUKI vehicle is equipped with tyres which are all the same type and size. This is important to ensure proper steering and handling of the vehicle. Never mix tyres of different size or type on the four wheels of your vehicle. The size and type of tyres used should be only those approved by SUZUKI as standard or optional equipment for your vehicle. Replacing the wheels and tyres equipped on your vehicle with certain combinations of aftermarket wheels and tyres can significantly change the steering and handling characteristics of your vehicle. Therefore, use only those wheel and tyre combinations approved by SUZUKI as standard or optional equipment for your vehicle.
NOTICE
Replacing the original tyres with tyres of a different size may result in false speedometer or odometer readings. Check with a SUZUKI dealer before purchasing replacement tyres that differ in size from the original tyres. Replacing a tyre with one of a different size, or using different brands among the four tyres can result in damage to the drive train.

NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with the tyre pressure monitoring system, the spare tyre TPMS sensor must be recognized when you include the spare tyre during a tyre rotation. For details, refer to "Replacing Tyres and/or Wheels" in "Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)" in the "OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE" section.

INS.PECTION AND MAINTENANCE
4-tyre rotation
65D459
To avoid uneven wear of your tyres and to prolong their life, rotate the tyres as illustrated. Tyres should be rotated every 10000 km (6000 miles). After rotation, adjust front and rear tyre pressures to the specification listed on your vehicle's Tyre Information Label.

Changing Wheels
78RB07014
To change a wheel, use the following procedure:
1) Remove the jack, tools and spare wheel from the vehicle.
NOTE: How to remove the spare wheel:
78RB07052
1. Remove the center nut (1 ), then remove the spare wheel half cover (2) (if equipped). 2. Remove the wheel nuts of the spare wheel, then remove the spare wheel with both hands.
2) Loosen, but do not remove the wheel nuts. 3) Jack up the vehicle (follow the jacking instructions in the "EMERGENCY SERVICE" section in this manual) 4) Remove the wheel nuts and wheel. 5) Before installing the new wheel, clean any mud or dirt off from the surface of the wheel and hub with a clean cloth. Clean the hub carefully; it may be hot from driving.
Front wheel/Rear wheel

(1) Boss
6) Position the jack vertically and raise the jack by turning the jack handle clockwise until the jack head hole fits into the boss (1) of the body as the illustration. 7) Continue to raise the jack slowly and smoothly until the tyre clears the ground. Do not raise the vehicle more than necessary.
A WARNING
• Use the jack only to change wheels on level, hard ground. • Never jack up the vehicle on an inclined surface. • Never raise the vehicle with the jack in a location other than between the frame bosses near the wheel to be changed. • Make sure that the jack is raised at least 51 mm (2 inches) before it contacts the boss. Use of the jack when it is within 51 mm (2 inches) of being fully collapsed may result in failure of the jack. No person should place any portion of their body under a vehicle that is supported by a jack. • Never run the engine when the vehicle is supported by the jack and never allow passengers to remain in the vehicle.
EMERGENCY SERVICE

Changing wheels
To change a wheel, use the following pro
cedure: 1) Prepare the jack, tools and spare tyre. 2) Loosen, but do not remove the wheel nuts. 3) Jack up the vehicle (follow the jacking instructions in this section).
A WARNING
Shift into "P" (Park) for an automatic transmission, or into 11R" (Reverse) for a manual transmission vehicle when you jack up the vehicle. Never jack up the vehicle with the transmission in "N" (Neutral). OthR erwise, unstable jack may cause an accident.
4) Remove the wheel nuts and wheel.
