INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE9-11ENGINE OIL AND FILTERSpecified oil
Be sure that the engine oil you use comes
under the API classification of SF, SG or
SH. The recommended engine oil is SF
20W40 (1). Select the appropriate oil
viscosity according to the above chart.
Oil Level Check
It is important to keep the engine oil at the
correct level for proper lubrication of your
vehicle’s engine. Check the oil level with the
vehicle on a level surface. The oil level
indication may be inaccurate if the vehicle
is on a slope. The oil level should be
checked either before starting the engine or
at least 5 minutes after stopping the engine.
Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with a
clean cloth, insert the dipstick all the way
into the engine, then remove it again. The
oil on the stick should be between the
upper and lower limits shown on the stick.
If the oil level indication is near the lower
limit, add enough oil to raise the level to
the upper limit.
76G-09-00376G-09-004
(1) Preferred
Be sure that the engine oil you use comes
under the quality classification of SG+, SL
& SJ. Select the appropriate oil viscosity
according to the above chart.
SAE 5W30 (1) is the best choice for good
fuel economy, and good starting in cold
weather.
Failure to check the oil level regularly
could lead to serious engine trouble
due to insufficient oil.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE9-21NOTE:If you experience some firing problem of
spark plugs, such as, hard engine-starting,misfire etc., the cause may be located notonly on spark plugs but also on deteriorated
ignition wiring (generally, used for more than80,000 km or five years). If spark plugreplacement does not solve the problem,
have the ignition wiring and other ignitionsystem inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKIdealer.

BRAKESBrake Fluid
Check the brake fluid level by looking at the
reservoir in the engine compartment. Check
that the fluid level is between the “MAX”
and “MIN” lines. If the brake fluid level is
near the “MIN” line, fill it up to the “MAX”
line with MARUTI GENUINE brake fluid.
Failure to follow the guidelines below
can result in personal injury or
serious damage to the brake system.
If the brake fluid in the reservoir drops below a certain level, the
brake warning light on the
instrument panel will come on (the
