octane number (RON) of 91 or higher.
Rgvtqn1Gvjcpqn"dngpfu
Blends of unleaded petrol and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in some areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% etha-
nol. Make sure this petrol-ethanol blend
has octane ratings no lower than those
recommended for petrol.
Rgvtqn1Ogvjcpqn"dngpfu
Blends of unleaded Petrol and methanol
(wood alcohol) are also commercially
available in some areas. DO NOT USE
fuels containing more than 5% methanol
under any circumstances. Fuel system
damage or vehicle performance problems
resulting from the use of such fuels are not
the responsibility of MARUTI SUZUKI and
may not be covered under the New Vehicle
Warranty. Fuels containing 5% or less
methanol may be suitable for use in your
vehicle if they contain cosolvents and cor-
rosion inhibitors. NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
are using a Petrol/alcohol blend, you
should switch back to unleaded Petrol con-
taining no alcohol.
Fkgugn"Gpikpg
The diesel fuel should be with Cetane
Number (CN) higher than 51 and sulfur
content less than 50 ppm (parts per mil-
lion). MARUTI SUZUKI recommends to
use the diesel fuel conformable to EN590.
Do not use marine diesel fuel, heating oils
and so forth.

7-7INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
74LH0-74E
(1) Preferred
Be sure that the engine oil you use comes
under the quality classification of ACEA
A5/B5. The recommended Engine oil is
5W30 A5/B5. Oil Level Check(For Petrol Engine Model)
80G064
52D084
(For Diesel Engine Model)
84E012
(1) MIN
(2) MAX
(3) Engine oil dipstick
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.
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 as
bad 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 minutes
and check the oil level again.

NOTICE
Failure to check the oil level regularly
could lead to serious engine trouble
due to insufficient oil.
NOTICE
(For Diesel Engine Model)
Do not top up the oil over the MAX
limit. Too much oil causes serious
engine trouble.

Replace the Oil Filter(For Petrol Engine Model)
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 the
new 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

Diesel engine :
25 Nm (2.5 kg-m, 18.5 lb-ft)
Refill with Oil and Check for Leaks1) Pour oil through the filler hole and
install the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to the “Capacities” item in the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section.
2) Start the engine and look carefully for
leaks at the oil filter and drain plug. Run
the engine at various speeds for at least
5 minutes.
3) Stop the engine and wait about 5 min-
utes. Check the oil level again and add
oil if necessary. Check for leaks again.

NOTICE
To prevent oil leakage, make sure
that the oil filter is tight, but do not
over-tighten it.
NOTICE
When replacing the oil filter, it is
recommended that you use a MAR-
UTI genuine replacement filter.
Oil leaks from around the oil filter
or drain plug indicate incorrect
installation or gasket damage. If
you find any leaks or are not sure
that the filter has been properly
tightened, have the vehicle
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer.

60D204
NOTE:
If your engine is equipped with the high
tension cord type ignition wiring and you
experience some firing problem of spark
plugs, such as, hard engine-starting, mis-
fire etc., the cause may be located not only
on spark plugs but also on deteriorated
ignition wirings (generally, used for more
than 80,000 km or five years). If spark plug
replacement does not solve the problem,
have the ignition wiring and other ignition
system inspected by your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer.Gear OilManual Transaxle Oil / Auto Gear
Shift OilWhen adding gear oil, use gear oil with the
appropriate viscosity and grade.
We highly recommend you use:
"MARUTI SUZUKI GEAR OIL 75W-80" for
manual transaxle gear oil or Auto Gear
Shift Oil.
Gear Oil Level CheckManual transmission
74LHT0714
(1) Oil filler and level plug
(for Petrol engine model)
(2) Oil filler and level plug
(for diesel engine model)
To check the gear oil level, use the fol-
lowing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface with
the parking brake applied. Then, stop
the engine.
2) Remove the oil filler plug (1) or (2) .
3) Check the inside of the hole with your
finger. If the oil level comes up to the
bottom of the plug hole, the oil level is
correct. If so, reinstall the plug.
4) If the oil level is low, add gear oil
through the oil filler plug hole (1) or (2)
until the oil level reaches the bottom of
the filler hole, then reinstall the plug.

CAUTION
After driving the vehicle, the trans-
mission oil temperature may be high
enough to burn you. Wait until the oil
filler plug is cool enough to touch
with your bare hands before inspect-
ing transmission oil level.
NOTICE
When tightening the plug, apply the
following sealing compound or
equivalent to the plug threads to pre-
vent oil leakage.

colored red for easy identification.
Remove the dipstick, clean it and push
it back in until the cap seats. Then pull
out the dipstick.
7) 7) Check both sides of the dipstick, and
read the lowest level. The fluid level
should be between the two marks in the
“HOT” range on the dipstick.(1) FULL HOT
(2) LOW HOT

8) Add just enough specified fluid through
the dipstick hole to fill the transaxle oil
to the proper level.

Since special procedures, materials, and
tools are required to change the automatic
transaxle oil, it is recommended that you
trust this job to your authorized MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer.
