OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
BRAKINGw ww w
w WARNING
The distance needed to bring any vehicle
to a halt increases with the speed of the
vehicle. The braking distance needed, for
example, at 60 km/h will be approximately
4 times greater than the braking distance
needed at 30 km/h. Start to brake the
vehicle when there is plenty of distance
between your vehicle and the stopping
point, and slow down gradually.
If water gets into the brake drums, brake
performance may become poor and
unpredictable. After driving through water
or washing the underside of the vehicle,
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.Servo assisted brakes
Your vehicle has servo assisted brakes
which works with the assistance of engine
vacuum.Do not switch off the engine while vehicle
is in motion, for example, while driving
down a hill as this will cause loss of
vacuum assistance leading to reduction of
braking efficiency substantially.If servo assistance is lost due to a stalled
engine or other failures, the system is still
fully operational on reserve power and you
can bring the vehicle to a complete stop by
pressing the brake pedal once and holding
it down. The reserve power is partly used
up each time you depress the brake pedal.
Apply smooth and constant pressure to the
pedal. Do not pump the pedal.

You should take extreme care when
working on your vehicle to prevent
accidental injury. Here are a few
precautions that you should be
especially careful to observe:
Do not leave the engine running in
garages or other confined areas.
When the engine is running, keep
hands, clothing, tools, and other
objects away from the fan and water
pump belt. Even though the fan may
not be moving, it can automatically
turn on without warning. When it is necessary to do service
work with the engine running, make
sure that the parking brake is
applied fully and the transmission is
in Neutral.
Do not touch ignition wires or other
ignition system parts when starting
the engine or when the engine is
running, or you could receive an
electric shock.
Be careful not to touch a hot
engine, exhaust manifold and pipes,
muffler, radiator and water hoses.
Do not allow smoking, sparks, or
flames around gasoline or the
battery. Flammable fumes are
present.
Do not get under your vehicle if it
is supported only with the portable
jack provided in your vehicle.
Be careful not to cause accidental
short circuits between the positive
and negative battery terminals.
Keep used oil, coolant, and other
fluids away from children and pets.
Dispose of used fluids properly;
never pour them on the ground, into
sewers, etc.INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE9-1

When the engine is running, keep
hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away
from the fan and drive belt. Even
though the fan may not be moving, it
can automatically turn on without
warning. Water pump belt (A) 8 - 9 mm

Make sure the drive belt tension is correct.
If the belt is too loose, insufficient battery
charging, engine overheating, or excessive
belt wear can result. When you press the
belt with your thumb midway between the
pulleys, the belt deflection should be within
the specification below.
The belt should also be examined to ensure
that it is not damaged. If the belt needs to
be replaced or adjusted, have it done by
your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

engine until these problems have been
corrected.
3) If you do not find a leak, carefully add
coolant to the reservoir and then the
radiator, if necessary. (Refer to “ENGINE
COOLANT” in the “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section.)
It is dangerous to remove the radiator
cap when the water temperature is
high, because scalding fluid and
steam may be blown out under
pressure. The cap should only be
taken off when the coolant
temperature has lowered.
To help prevent personal injury, keep
hands, tools and clothing away from
the engine cooling fan and air-
conditioner fan (if equipped). These
electric fans can automatically turn on
without warning.

1) Turn off the air conditioner, if equipped.
2) Take the vehicle to a safe place and
park.
3) Let the engine run at normal idle speed
for a few minutes until engine coolant
temperature warning light goes off.
If you see or hear escaping steam,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and
immediately turn off the engine to let
it cool. Do not open the bonnet when
steam is present. When the steam can
no longer be seen or heard, open the
hood to see if the coolant is still
boiling. If it is, you must wait until it
stops boiling before you proceed.
If the engine coolant temperature warning
light does not goes off:
1) Turn off the engine and check that the
water pump belt and pulleys are not
damaged or slipping. If any abnormality
is found, correct it.
2) Check the coolant level in the reservoir.
If it is found to be lower than the “LOW”
line, look for leaks at the radiator, water
pump, and radiator and heater hoses. If
you locate any leaks that may have
caused the overheating, do not run the

WARNING TRIANGLEIn case of vehicle break-down or during
emergency stopping, where, your vehicle
could become a potential traffic hazard,
keep the warning triangle, provided with
your vehicle, on the road free from any
obstacles behind your vehicle so as to warn
the approaching traffic, at an approximate
distance of 50-100 m. The reflecting side
of the triangle should face the on coming
traffic. Please activate the hazard warning
lamps before alighting the vehicle to keep
the warning triangle.
