DRIVING TIPS AND SAFE DRIVING

Snow Chains

If you must use snow chains to increase tyre

traction, observe the following precautions:

• Choose a safe place away from traffic to

install the chains.

• When installing the chains carefully follow

the manufacturer's instructions.

• Install the chains on the front tyres.

• With the chains on, drive only at slow and

moderate speeds.

• If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck

If your vehicle gets stuck in snow, mud, or

sand, follow the directions below:

1) Change back and forth between first gear

and reverse. This will create a rocking

motion which may give you enough

momentum to free the vehicle. Press

gently on the accelerator to keep wheel

spin to a minimum. Remove your foot from

the accelerator while changing gear.

Do not race the engine. Excessive wheel

spin will cause the tyres to dig deeper,

making it more difficult to free the vehicle.

2) If your vehicle remains stuck after a few

minutes of rocking, get another vehicle to

pull you out.
Do not allow anyone to stand near the

vehicle when you are rocking it, and do

not spin the wheels faster than an

indicated 40 km/h on the speedometer.

Personal injury and/or vehicle damage

may result from spinning the wheels

too fast.

CAUTION

Do not continue rocking the vehicle for

more than a few minutes. Prolonged

rocking can cause engine overheating

or transmission damage.

DRIVING ON WET ROADS

CAUTION

When driving on wet roads, avoid driv-

ing through large amount of standing

water on the road. Large amount of

water entering the engine compart-

ment may cause damage to the engine

and or electrical components.

If stuck in deep water, do not start till

water level drops.

Water Is incompressible substance,

water inside engine is harmful to

the engine."
Make sure your tyres are in good

condition and always maintain the

specified tyre pressure. Refer to

"TYRES" in the "INSPECTION AND

MAINTENANCE" section for details.

Do not use tyres other than those

specified by MARUTI. never use

different sizes or types of tyres on

the front and rear wheels. For

information regarding the specified

tyres, refer to ^"SPECIFICATIONS"

section.

Never use oversized tyres or special

shock absorbers and springs to

raise (jack up) your vehicle.This will

change the handling characteristics.

After driving through water, test the

brakes while driving at a slow speed

to see if they have maintained their

normal effectiveness. If the brakes

are less effective than normal, dry

them by repeatedly applying the

brakes while driving slowly until the

brakes have regained their normal

effectiveness.
