Dehumidifying
Push in the A/C button, and the desired
function button and move the air intake lever
to "FRESH AIR", the temperature control lever
to the desired temperature position, and the
fan switch to the desired fan speed position.
NOTE:
Because the air conditioner dehumidifies the
air, turning it on will help keep the windows
clear, even when blowing heated air using the
DEMIST or HEATER & DEMIST functions.
60G-05-025
NOTE:
There are two types of air conditioning
systems used in MARUTI vehicles. One type
uses refrigerant CFC-12, commonly called R-
12; the other type uses the new refrigerant
HFC-134a, commonly called R-134a. For each
system, the correct refrigerant must be used.
To identify the system, a label that states
"R134a" or "HFC 134a" is stuck on the front
side of the engine compartment if the system
uses R-134a refrigerant.
CAUTION
Using the wrong refrigerant may
damage the air conditioning system.
Use correct refrigerant only. Do not mix
the two refrigerants.

EMERGENCY SERVICE
60G-74E
CAUTION
Vehicle equipped with electronic fuel
injection system will not start by
pushing or towing as the fuel pump
will not work in this condition. This
starting method could also result in
permanent damage to the catalytic
converter. Use jump leads to start a
vehicle with a weak or flat battery.
60G-10-004E
When jump starting your vehicle, use the
following procedure:
1) Use only a 12 volt battery to jump start
your vehicle. Position the good 12V battery
close to your vehicle so that the jump leads
will reach both batteries. When using a
battery installed on another vehicle, DO
NOT LET THE VEHICLES TOUCH. Apply
the parking brakes fully on both vehicles.
2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except
those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).
3) Make jump lead connections as follows:
a) Connect one end of the first jump lead
to the positive (+) terminal of the flat
battery.
b) Connect the other end to the positive
(+) terminal of the booster battery.
c) Connect one end of the second jump
lead to the negative (-) terminal of the
booster battery.
d) Make the final connection to an
unpainted, heavy metal part of the
engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery.
Never connect the jump lead directly
to the negative (-) terminal of the
discharged battery, or an explosion
may occur.
10-3
4) If the booster battery you are using is fitted
to another vehicle, start the engine of the
vehicle with the booster battery. Run the
engine at moderate speed.
5) Start the engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery.
6) Remove the jump leads in the exact
reverse order in which you connected
them.

EMERGENCY SERVICE
TOWING
If you need to have your vehicle towed, contact
a professional service.
CAUTION
To help avoid damage to your vehicle
during towing, proper equipment and
towing procedures must be used.
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.
EMERGENCY REMEDIES
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
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 gauge indicates overheating
during driving:
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 the indicator is within
the normal, acceptable temperature range
between "H" and "C".
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.
