Clutch Pedal
1 11 1
1
The clutch pedal is used to disengage the
drive to the wheels when starting the
engine, stopping, or shifting the transmission
lever. Depressing the pedal disengages the
clutch.
Do not drive with your foot resting on
the clutch pedal. It could result in
excessive clutch wear, clutch damage,
or unexpected loss of engine braking.Brake Pedal
2 22 2
2
Your MARUTI SUZUKI vehicle is equipped
with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes.
Depressing the brake pedal applies both
sets of brakes.
You may hear occasional brake squeal
when you apply the brakes. This is a
normal condition caused by environmental
factors such as cold, wet, snow, etc.
If brake squeal is excessive and
occurs each time the brakes are
applied, you should have the brakes
checked by your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer.

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTDo not “ride” the brakes by applying
them continuously or resting your foot
on the pedal. This will result in
overheating of the brakes which could
cause unpredictable braking action,
longer stopping distances, or
permanent brake damage.

w WARNING
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel
tank, perform the following under-bonnet
checks:
1) Engine oil level.
2) Coolant level.
3) Brake fluid level.
4) Windscreen washer fluid level.
5) Battery solution level.
6) Bonnet latch operation.
Pull the bonnet release handle inside the
vehicle. Make sure that you can not
open the hood all the way without
releasing the secondary latch. Be sure
to close the hood securely after checking
for proper operation. See "All Latches,
Hinges & Locks" of "PERIODIC
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" in the
"INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE"
section for lubrication schedule.
Make sure the bonnet is fully closed
and latched before driving. If it is not,
it can fly up unexpectedly during
driving, obstructing your view and
resulting in an accident.

w WARNING
Starting a Cold Engine
Engine which is started after 6 hours should
be treated as cold engine.
For Electronic fuel injection models
With your foot off the accelerator pedal,
crank the engine by turning the ignition
key to “START”. Release the key when
the engine starts.
If the engine does not start after 15
seconds of cranking, wait about 15
seconds, then press down the
accelerator pedal to 1/3 of its travel and
try cranking the engine again. Release
the key and accelerator pedal when the
engine starts.
If the engine still does not start, try
holding the accelerator pedal all the way
to the floor while cranking. This should
clear the engine if it is flooded.
Starting a Warm Engine
For Electronic fuel injection models:
Use the same procedure as for “Starting a
Cold Engine”.

To help avoid clutch damage, do not
use the clutch pedal as a footrest while
driving or use the clutch to keep the
vehicle stationary on a hill. Depress the
clutch fully when changing gear.
When changing gears or starting off,
do not race the engine. Racing the
engine can shorten engine life and
prevent smooth operation. Reduce your speed and change down to
a lower gear before going down a long
or steep hill. A lower gear will allow the
engine to provide braking. Avoid riding
the brakes or they may overheat, result-
ing in brake failure.
When driving on slippery roads, be sure
to slow down before changing down.
Excessive and or sudden changes in
engine speed may cause loss of traction,
which could cause you to lose control.
Make sure that the vehicle is completely
stationary before you change into re-
verse. gradually release the clutch. When you hear
a change in the engine’s sound (speed),
gently apply pressure to the accelerator to
keep the engine sound (speed) constant whilst
continuing to gradually release the clutch.
Gear changing
All forward gears are synchronized, which
provides for quiet, easy changing. Always
depress the clutch pedal fully before changing
gears. The following table shows the
maximum allowable speed for each gear.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
CLUTCH PEDAL
Measure the clutch pedal play by moving
the clutch pedal with your hand and
measuring the distance it moves until you
feel slight resistance. The play in the clutch
pedal should be between 15 – 20 mm (0.6
– 0.8 in) If the play is more or less than
the above, or clutch dragging is felt with the
pedal fully depressed, have the clutch
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
76G-09-029
TYRESThe front and rear tyre pressure
specifications for your vehicle are listed on
the Tyre Inflation Pressure Label and in the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section at the end of
this book. Both the front and rear tyres
should have the specified tyre pressure.
Tyre Inspection
Inspect your vehicle’s tyres periodically by
performing the following checks:
1) Measure the air pressure with a tyre
gauge. Adjust the pressure if necessary.
Remember to check the spare tyre too.
76G-09-030
Air pressures should be checked
when the tyres are cold or you may
get inaccurate readings.
Check the inflation pressure from
time to time while inflating the tyre
gradually, until the specified
pressure is obtained.
Never underinflate or overinflate the
tyres.
Underinflation can cause unusual
handling characteristics or can
cause the rim to slip on the tyre
bead, resulting in an accident or
damage to the tyre or rim.
Overinflation can cause the tyre to
burst, resulting in personal injury.
Overinflation can also cause
unusual handling characteristics
which may result in an accident.
