CAUTION
Manual Transmission
Whenever possible, your vehicle should be
towed from the front with the front wheels
lifted. If the steering and drivetrain are in
good condition, your vehicle may be towed
from the rear with the rear wheels lifted and
the front wheels on the ground. Before
towing, make sure the steering is unlocked
and the transmission is in neutral.If the Starter Does Not Operate:
1) Try turning the ignition switch to the
“START” position with the headlights
turned on to determine the battery
condition. If the headlights go
excessively dim or go off, it usually
means that either the battery is flat or
the battery terminal contact is poor.
Recharge the battery or correct battery
terminal contact as necessary.
2) If the headlights remain bright, check the
fuses. If the reason for failure of the
starter is not obvious, there may be a
major electrical problem. Have the
vehicle inspected by your authorized
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
If the Engine is Flooded
If the engine is flooded with petrol, it may
be hard to start. If this happens, press the
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor
and hold it there while cranking the engine.
(Do not operate the starter motor for more
than 15 seconds). Release the accelerator
as soon as the engine has started.
If the Engine Overheats
The engine could overheat temporarily under
severe driving conditions. If the engine
coolant temperature warning light comes on,
it indicates overheating during driving:TOWING HOOK (If equipped)
