WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
70F-07-070
Brake fluid level warning/Parking Brake
Indicator light
This light operates under three conditions:
1) when the ignition switch is turned to the
"START' position, 2) when the fluid in the brake
fluid reservoir falls below the specified level
or 3) when the parking brake is not fully
released and the ignition switch is in the "ON"
position. The light should go out after starting
the engine and fully releasing the parking
brake, if the fluid in the brake fluid reservoir is
adequate. If the light does not go off or comes
on whilst you are driving, it may mean that
there is something wrong with the vehicle's
braking system. If this happens, you should:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
Remember that stopping distance may
be longer, you may have to push
harder on the pedal, and the pedal
may go down farther than normal.
2) Test the brakes by carefully starting and
stopping at the side of the road.
3) If you determine that it is safe, drive
carefully at low speed to the nearest dealer
for repairs.
Have the vehicle towed to the nearest
dealer for repairs.
or
4)
If any of the following conditions occur,
you should Immediately ask your
MARUTI dealer to inspect the brake
system.
• If the brake fluid level warning light
does not go out after the engine has
been started and the parking brake
has been fully released.
• If the brake fluid level warning light
does not come on when the ignition
switch is turned to the "START"
position.
• If the brake fluid level warning light
comes on at any time during vehicle
operation.
NOTE:
Because the disc brake system is self
adjusting, the fluid level will drop as the brake
pads become worn.
Replenishing the brake fluid reservoir is
considered normal periodic maintenance.
70F-03-039
Oil Pressure Light
This light comes on when the ignition switch
is turned on, and goes out when the engine
is started. The light will come on and remain
on if there is insufficient oil pressure. If the
light comes on when driving, pull off the
road as soon as you can and stop the
engine. Check the oil level and add oil if
necessary (see pages 9-8 and 9-9). If there
is enough oil, the lubrication system should
be inspected by your MARUTI dealer before
you drive the vehicle again.

to indicate the need to add oil. Be
sure to periodically check the engine
oil level (see pages 9-8 and 9-9).
70F-03-009
Charging Light
This light comes on when the ignition switch
is turned on, and goes out when the engine is
started. The light will come on and remain on
if there is something wrong with the battery
charging system. If the light comes on when
the engine is running, the charging system
should be inspected immediately by your
MARUTI dealer.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving long with the
charging light ON as this will drain the
battery 'dead'.
72F-05-027
"Malfunction Indicator" Light
Your vehicle has a computer-controlled
emission control system. A "Malfunction
Indicator" light is provided on the instrument
panel to indicate when it is necessary to have
the emission control system serviced. The
"Malfunction Indicator" light comes on when
the ignition switch is turned to "ON" and goes
out when the engine is started.
If the "Malfunction Indicator" light comes on
when the engine is running, there is a problem
with the emission control system. Take the
vehicle to your MARUTI dealer to have the
problem corrected.
CAUTION
Continuing to drive the vehicle when
the "Malfunction Indicator" light is on
can cause permanent damage to the
vehicle's emission control system, and
can affect fuel economy and
driveability.

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.

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.
7-1
70F-05-007
Before driving:
1) Make sure that windows, mirrors, lights,
and reflectors are clean and unobstructed.
2) Check the tyres.
3) Look for fluid and oil leaks.
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.
9) Check all gauges.
10) Make sure that the brake fluid level
warning light is off when the parking brake
is released with the ignition switch in "ON"
