For maintenance-free battery (cap-less type), you need not add water. For traditional type battery, which has water filler caps, the level of the battery fluid (acid) fluid (acid) must be kept between the upper level line (1) and lower level line (2) at all times. If the level is found to be below the lower level line (2), add distilled water to the upper level line (1 ). You should periodically check the battery, battery terminals, . and battery hold-down bracket for corrosion. Remove corrosion using a stiff brush and ammonia mixed with water or baking soda mixed with water. After removing corrosion, rinse with clean water.
If your vehicle is not going to be driven for a month or longer, disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery to help prevent discharge.

(5) Crossed-out wheeled bin symbol (6) Chemical symbol of "Pb"
The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol (5) located on the battery label indicates that the used battery should be collected separately from ordinary household trash. The chemical symbol of "Pb" (6) indicates the battery contains more than 0.004% lead.
By ensuring the used battery is disposed of or recycled correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate trash handling of the battery. The recycling of materials will help to conserve natural resources. For more detailed information about disposing of or recycling the used battery, consult a SUZUKI dealer.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Fuses
Your vehicle has three types of fuses, as described below:
Main fuse The main fuse takes current directly from the lead-acid battery.
Primary fuses These fuses are between the main fuse and individual fuses, and are for electrical load groups.
Individual fuses These fuses are for individual electrical cir
cuits.
To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller provided in the fuse box cover.

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.
