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.

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.

CAUTION
If you operate the engine with this
light on, severe engine damage can
result.
Do not rely on the Oil Pressure Light
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.
