Drive Belt
Make sure the drive belt tension is correct. If the belt is too loos e, insufficient battery charging, engine overheating, poor powersteering, poor air conditioning, or exces- sive belt wear can result. When you press the belt with your thumb midway betweenthe 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 your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

Be sure that the engine oil you use comes under the quality classification of SL.Select the appropriate oil viscosity accord- ing to the above chart.
SAE 0W-20 (1) is the best choice for good fuel economy, and good starting in cold weather.
WA R N I N G
When the engine is running, keephands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away from the moving fan and drive belts.

Be sure that the engine oil you use comes under the quality classification of ACEAA5/B5-10. Select the appropriate oil vis- cosity according to the above chart.
Oil Level Check
76MH030
(1) Engine oil dipstick (Petrol engine) (2) Engine oil dipstick (Diesel engine)
It is important to keep the engine oil at the correct level for proper lubrication of yourvehicle’s engine. Check the oil level with the vehicle on a level surface. The oil level indication may be inaccurate if the vehicleis on a slope. The oil level should be checked either before starting the engine or at least 5 minutes after stopping theengine.
The handle of the engine oil dipstick is col- ored yellow for easy identification.
52D084
Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with aclean cloth, insert the dipstick all the way into the engine, then remove it again. Theoil on the stick should be between the upper and lower limits shown on the stick. If the oil level indication is near the lowerlimit, add enough oil to raise the level to the upper limit.

Refilling
81A147
Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil slowly through the filler hole to bring the oil level to the upper limit on the dipstick. Be careful not to overfill. Too much oil is almost asbad as too little oil. After refilling, start the engine and allow it to idle for about a min- ute. Stop the engine, wait about 5 minutesand check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and FilterDrain the engine oil while the engine is stillwarm.
76MH037
(1) Engine oil filler cap (Petrol engine)(2) Engine oil filler cap (Diesel engine)
1) Remove the oil filler cap. 2) Place a drain pan under the drain plug.3) Using a wrench, remove the drain plug and drain out the engine oil.

Tightening torque for drain plug (1):Petrol engine: 35 Nm (3.6 kg -m, 25.8 lb-ft) Diesel engine: 35 Nm (3.6 kg -m, 25.8 lb-ft)
NOTICE
(For Diesel Engine Model) Do not top up the oil over the MAX limit. Too much oil causes serious engine trouble.

EXAMPLE
CAUTION
The engine oil temperature may behigh enough to burn your fingers when the drain plug is loosened. Waituntil the drain plug is cool enough to touch with your bare hands.

4) Reinstall the drain plug and gasket. Tighten the plug with a wrench to thespecified torque.
Replace the Oil Filter
1) Using an oil filter wrench, turn the oil fil-ter counterclockwise and remove it. 2) Using a clean rag, wipe off the mount- ing surface on the engine where thenew filter will be seated. 3) Smear a little engine oil around the rub- ber gasket of the new oil filter.4) Screw on the new filter by hand until the filter gasket contacts the mounting sur- face.
