EXHAUST GAS WARNING
DAILY INSPECTION CHECKLIST
60G-07-001E
Avoid breathing exhaust gases.
Exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide, a potentially lethal gas that
is colourless and odourless. Since
carbon monoxide is difficult to detect
by itself, be sure to take the following
precautions to help prevent carbon
monoxide from entering your vehicle.
• Do not leave the engine running in
garages or other confined areas.
• Do not park with the engine running
for a long period of time, even in an
open area. If it is necessary to sit for
a short time in a parked vehicle <=>
with the engine running, make sure
the air intake lever is set to "FRESH
AIR" and the fan is at high speed.
To allow proper operation of your
vehicle's ventilation system, keep
the air inlet grille in front of the
windscreen clear of snow, leaves, or
other obstructions at all times.
Keep the exhaust tailpipe area clear
of snow and other material to help
reduce the buildup of exhaust gases
under the vehicle.This is particularly
important when parked in blizzard
conditions.
Have the exhaust system inspected
periodically for damage and leaks.
Any damage or leaks should be
repaired immediately.

NOTE:
It is normal for water to drip from the air
conditioning system after use.
4) Adjust the seat/head restraint.
5) Check the brake pedal and the parking
brake lever.
6) Adjust the mirrors.
7) Make sure that you and passengers have
properly fastened your seat belts.
8) Make sure that all warning lights come on
as the key is turned to the "ON" or "START'
position.

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) Power steering (if equipped) fluid level.
5) Windscreen washer fluid level.
6) Battery solution level.
7) 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.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting the engine:
1) Make sure the parking brake is applied
fully.
2) Manual Transmission - Shift into "N"
(neutral) and depress the clutch pedal all
the way to the floor. Hold it while starting
the engine.
Make sure that the parking brake is
applied fully and the transmission is in
Neutral before attempting to start the
engine.
CAUTION
Stop turning the starter immediately
after the engine has started or the
starter system can be damaged.
Do not crank the engine for more
than 15 seconds at a time. If the
engine doesn't start on the first try,
wait about 15 seconds before trying
again.
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 "START1. 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.

Oil Level Cheek
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.
91
60G-09-003E
Refilling
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 minute. Stop the engine,
wait for five minutes and check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and Fitter
Drain the engine oil while the engine is still
warm.
1) Remove the oil filler cap.
2) Place a drain pan under the drain plug.
3) Using the correct spanner remove the
drain plug and drain out the engine oil.
60G-09-004
The engine oil temperature may be high
enough to burn your fingers when the
drain plug Is loosened. Watt until the
drain plug is cool enough to touch with
your bare hands.

New and used oil can be hazardous.
Children and pets may be harmed by
swallowing new or used oil. Keep new
and used oil and used oil fitters away
from children and pets.
Continuous contact with used engine
oil has been found to cause (skin)
cancer in laboratory animals. Brief
contact with used oil may irritate skin.
To minimize your exposure to used oil,
wear a long-sleeve shirt and
moistureproof gloves (such 'as
dishwashing gloves) when changing
oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash
thoroughly with soap and water.
Launder any clothing or rags if wet with
oil.
Recycle or properly dispose of used oil
and filters.
4) Reinstall the drain plug and gasket.
Tighten the plug to a torque of
5.0 kg-m (36.5 Ib-ft).
70F-07-010
Replace the oil filter
1) Using an oil filter wrench, turn the oil filter
counterclockwise and remove it.
2) Using a clean rag, wipe off the mounting
surface on the engine where the new filter
will be seated.
3) Smear a little engine oil around the rubber
gasket of the new oil filter.
4) Screw on the new filter by hand until the
filter gasket contacts the mounting
surface.
60G-09-005
CAUTION
To tighten the oil filter properly, it is
important to accurately identify the
position at which the filter gasket first
contacts the mounting surface.
5) Tighten the filter 3/4 turn from the point of
contact with the mounting surface, [or to
1.4 kg-m (10.5 Ib-ft)] using an oil filter
wrench.

necessary. Check for leaks again.
CAUTION
When replacing the oil filter, it is
recommended that you use a genuine
MARUTI replacement filter.
60G-09-006
CAUTION
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
fitter has been properly tightened, have
the vehicle inspected by your MARUTI

Coolant Level Check
Check the coolant level at the reservoir tank,
not at the radiator. With the engine cool, the
coolant level should be between the "FULL"
and "LOW" marks.
Adding Coolant
If the Coolant level is below the "LOW" mark,
more coolant should be added. Remove the
reservoir tank cap and add coolant until the
reservoir tank level reaches the "FULL" mark.
Never fill the reservoir tank above the "FULL"
mark.

gas. Keep flames and sparks away from
the battery or an explosion may occur.
Never smoke when working in the
vicinity of the battery .
When checking or servicing the battery,
disconnect the negative cable. Be
careful not to cause a short circuit by
allowing metal objects to contact the
battery posts and the vehicle at the
same time.
To avoid harm to yourself or damage
to your vehicle or battery, follow the
jump starting instructions in the
EMERGENCY SERVICE section of this
manual if it is necessary to jump start
your vehicle.
The level of the battery solution must be kept
between the "UPPER" and the "LOWER" level
lines at all times. If the level is found to be
below the "LOWER" level line, add distilled
water to the "UPPER" level line. You should
periodically check the battery, battery
terminals, and battery holddown bracket for
corrosion. Remove corrosion using a stiff
brush and ammonia mixed with water, or
baking soda mixed with water. After removing
corrosion, rinse with clean water.
If your vehicle is not going to be driven for a
month or longer, disconnect the cable from
the negative terminal of the battery to help
prevent discharge.
