Wear your Seat Belts at All Times.
WARNING
Never allow persons to ride in the
cargo area of a vehicle. In the event
of an accident, there is a much
greater risk of injury for persons who
are not riding In a seat with their seat
belt securely fastened.
Seat belts should always be adjusted
so the lap portion of the belt is worn
low across the pelvis, not across the
waist. Shoulder straps should be
WARNING
1 worn on the outside shoulder only,
and never under the arm. Seat belts
should never be worn with the straps
twisted and should be adjusted as
tightly as is comfortable to provide
the protection for which they have
been designed. A slack belt will
provide less protection than one
which is snug.
Make sure that each seat belt buckle
is inserted into the proper buckle
catch. It is possible to cross the
buckles in the rear seat.
Do not wear your seat belt over hard
or breakable objects in your pockets
or on your clothing. If an accident
occurs, objects such as glasses,
pens, etc. under the seat belt can
cause injury.
Never use the same seat belt on
more than one occupant and never
attach a seat belt over an infant or
child being held on an occupant's
lap. Such seat belt use could cause
serious injury in the event of an
accident. _K

BEFORE DRIVING
Pregnant women should use seat
belts, although specific recommen-
dations about restraint use should
be made by the woman's medical
advisor.
Periodically inspect seat belt
assemblies for excessive wear and
damage. Seat belts should be replaced
if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated, or damaged in any way.
It is essential to replace the entire seat
belt assembly after it has been
stressed in an impact, even if damage
to the assembly is not obvious.
Infants and small children should never
be transported unless they are properly
restrained. Restraint systems for
infants and small children can be
purchased locally and should be used.
Make sure that the system you
purchase meets applicable safety
standards. Read and follow all the
directions provided by the
manufacturer.
Avoid contamination of seat belt
webbing by polishes, oils, chemicals,
and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild
soap and water.
For children, if the shoulder belt
irritates the neck or face, move the child
closer to the center of the vehicle.
A WARNING
Be sure to inspect all seat belt
assemblies after any collision. Any seat
belt assembly which was in use during
a collision (other than a very minor one)
should be replaced, even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. Any seat
belt assembly which was not in use
during a collision should be replaced
if it does not function properly or is
damaged in any way.

NOTE:
To identify the center seat belt buckle catch
and tongue in the rear seat, "CENTER" is
moulded on the buckle catch and tongue of
the center lap belt. The buckle catches are
designed so a buckle tongue can not be
inserted into the wrong buckle catch.

Child Restraint Systems
MARUTI highly recommends that you use a
child restraint system to restrain infants and
small children. Many different types of child
restraint systems are available; make sure that
the restaint system you select meets
applicable safety standards.
All child restraint systems are designed to be
secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the
lap portion of lap-shoulder belts. Whenever
possible, Maruti recommends that child
restraint systems be installed on the rear seat.
According to accident statistics children are
safer when properly restrained in rear seating
positions than in front seating positions.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
60G-09-002E
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.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
60G-74E
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.
