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 exactreverse order in which you connected them.
Towing
If you need to have your vehicle towed, contact a professional service. Your dealercan provide you with detailed towing instructions.
2-Wheel Drive (2WD) Manual Tran- saxle or Auto Gear ShiftManual transaxle vehicles or Auto Gear Shift vehicles may be towed using either of the following methods.
1) From the front, with the front wheels lifted and the rear wheels on the ground. Before towing, make sure thatthe parking brake is released. 2) From the rear, with the rear wheels lifted and the front wheels on theground, provided the steering and drivetrain are in operational condition. Before towing, make sure that transaxleis in neutral, the steering wheel is
unlocked (the ignition key should be in the “ACC” position), and the steering wheel is secured with a clampingdevice designed for towing service.
WA R N I N G
Never connect the jump lead directlyto the negative (–) terminal of the dis- charged battery, or an explosion may occur.
CAUTION
Connect the jump le ad to the engine mount bracket securely. If the jump lead disconnects from the engine mount bracket because of vibrationat the start of the engine, the jump lead could be caught in the drive belts.
NOTICE
To help avoid damage to your vehicle during towing, proper equipment and towing procedures must be used.
NOTICE
After shifting the Auto Gear Shiftlever to the “N” position, always check the gear position indicator in the instrument cluster shows the “N”position to make sure that the transaxle is disengaged. If the transaxle cannot be put in neu-tral, turn the key from the “LOCK” to the “ON” position, and move the Auto Gear Shift lever from “N” to “D”,“M” or “R”, then back to “N” again. Then turn the key from the “ON” to the “LOCK” position.These procedures may help put the transaxle in neutral. If the transaxle still cannot be put in neutral, you can-not tow the vehicle without using a towing dolly. The steering column is not strongenough to with stand shocks trans- mitted from the fr ont wheels during towing. Always unlock the steeringwheel before towing.

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 con- dition. If the headlights go excessivelydim or go off, it usually means that either the battery is flat or the battery terminal contact is poor. Recharge thebattery or correct battery terminal con- tact as necessary. 2) If the headlights remain bright, checkthe fuses. If the reason for failure of the starter is not obvious, there may be a major electrical problem. Have the vehi-cle inspected by your authorized MAR- UTI SUZUKI dealer.
If the Engine is Flooded
If the engine is flooded with petrol, it may be hard to start. If this happens, press theaccelerator pedal all the way to the floor and hold it there while cranking the engine. For petrol engine model, do not operatethe starter motor for more than 12 sec- onds. For diesel engine model, do not operatethe starter motor for more than 30 sec- onds.
If the Engine Overheats
The engine could overheat temporarily under severe driving conditions. If the highengine coolant temperature warning light comes on as 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 the normal idlespeed for a few minutes until the high engine coolant temperature warning light goes off.
If the high engine coolant temperature warning light does not go off: 1) Turn off the engine and check that the water pump belt and pulleys are notdamaged or slipping. If any abnormality is found, correct it.
2) Check the coolant level in the reservoir. If it is found to be lower than the “LOW” line, look for leaks at the radiator, waterpump, and radiator and heater hoses. If you locate any leaks that may have caused the overheating, do not run theengine until these problems have been corrected. 3) If you do not find a leak, carefully addcoolant to the reservoir and then the radiator, if necessary. (Refer to “Engine Coolant” in the “INSPECTION ANDMAINTENANCE” section.)
NOTE: If your engine overheats and you are unsure what to do, contact your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
WA R N I N G
If you see or hear escaping steam,stop the vehicle in a safe place andimmediately turn off the engine to let it cool. Do not open the hood when steam is present. When the steamcan no longer be seen or heard, open the hood to see if the coolant is still boiling. If it is, you must wait until itstops boiling before you proceed.

Corrosion Prevention
It is important to take good care of your vehicle to protect it from corrosion. Listedbelow are instructions for how to maintain your vehicle to prevent corrosion. Please read and follow these instructions carefully.
Important Information About Corrosion
Common causes of corrosion 1) Accumulation of road salt, dirt, mois- ture, or chemicals in hard-to-reachareas of the vehicle underbody or frame. 2) Chipping, scratches and any damage totreated or painted metal surfaces resulting from minor accidents or abra- sion by stones and gravel.
Environmental conditions which accel- erate corrosion1) Road salt, dust control chemicals, sea air or industrial pollution will all acceler- ate the corrosion of metal.2) High humidity will increase the rate of corrosion particularly when the tem- perature range is just above the freez-ing point. 3) Moisture in certain areas of a vehicle for an extended period of time may pro-mote corrosion even though other body sections may be completely dry.
4) High temperatures will cause an accel- erated rate of corrosion to parts of the vehicle which are not well ventilated topermit quick drying.
This information illustrates the necessity of keeping your vehicle (particularly the underbody) as clean and dry as possible. It is equally important to repair any damageto the paint or protective coatings as soon as possible.
How to Help Prevent Corrosion
Wash your vehicle frequentlyThe best way to preserve the finish on your vehicle and to help avoid corrosion is tokeep it clean with frequent washing. Wash your vehicle at least once during the winter and once immediately after the win-ter. Keep your vehicle, particularly the underside, as clean and dry as possible. If you frequently drive on salted roads, yourvehicle should be washed at least once a month during the winter. If you live near the ocean, your vehicle should be washed atleast once a month throughout the year.
For washing instructions, refer to the “Vehi- cle Cleaning” section.
Remove foreign ma terial depositsForeign material such as salts, chemicals, road oil or tar, tree sap, bird droppings andindustrial fall-out may damage the finish of your vehicle if it is left on painted surfaces. Remove these types of deposits as quicklyas possible. If these deposits are difficult to wash off, an additional cleaner may be required. Be sure that any cleaner you use
is not harmful to painted surfaces and is specifically intended for your purposes. Fol- low the manufacturer’s directions when using these special cleaners.
Repair finish damage Carefully examine your vehicle for damage to the painted surfaces. Should you findany chips or scratches in the paint, touch them up immediately to prevent corrosion from starting. If the chips or scratches havegone through to the bare metal, have a qualified body shop make the repair.
Keep passenger and luggage compart- ments cleanMoisture, dirt or mud can accumulate under the floor mats and may cause corrosion. Occasionally, check under these mats toensure that this area is clean and dry. More frequent checks are necessary if the vehicle is used off road or in wet weather.Certain cargos such as chemicals, fertiliz- ers, cleaners, salts, etc. are extremely cor- rosive by nature. These products should betransported in sealed containers. If a spill or leak does occur, clean and dry the area immediately.
Store your vehicle in a dry, well-venti- lated area Do not park your vehicle in a damp, poorlyventilated area. If you often wash your vehicle in the garage or if you frequently drive it in when wet, your garage may bedamp. The high humidity in the garage may cause or accelerate corrosion. A wet vehicle may corrode even in a heatedgarage if the ventilation is poor.
