3) Remove the engine under cover. 4) Loosen the drain plug attached to the lower part of the radiator and drain the coolant into a suitable container.
5) Reinstall the reservoir and fill it with coolant to the "FULL.:' line. 6) Tighten the drain plug on the radiator. 7) Reinstall the engine under cover. 8) Fill the radiator with coolant and install
the radiator cap. 9) After filling, let the engine idle for about 2-3 minutes to get rid of air in the cool­ing system.
1 O)Stop the engine. 11 )Check the coolant level in the radiator
again. If the level has gone down, add
more coolant.
CAUTION
The coolant must be replaced with
the vehicle on level ground.
(For
Diesel Engine Model) Since special procedures are required, we recommend you take your vehicle to your SUZUKI dealer for coolant replacement.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Air Cleaner
EXAMPLE
66J167
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there
will be greater intake resistance, resulting in decreased power output and increased fuel consumption.
Check and
clean periodically according to
the following procedure:
1) Take off the air cleaner case cover.
Remove the element from the air cleaner case cover. 2) This air cleaner element is of dry type.
Remember that it needs cleaning
according to the following method.
3) Blow off dust on cleaner element by
compressed air from inside the ele­ment, or replace the element as neces­sary.

Brakes
Brake Fluid
64J154
Check the brake fluid level by looking at
the reservoir in the engine compartment.
Check that the fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" lines. If the brake fluid level is near the "MIN" line, fill it up to the "MAX" line with SAE J1703 or DOT3 brake
fluid.
A WARNING
Failure to follow the guidelines below can result in personal injury or seri­
ous damage to the brake system. . • If the brake fluid in the reservoir drops below a certain level, the
brake warning light on the instru­
ment panel will come on (the
engine must be running with the
parking brake fully disengaged).
Should the light come on, immedi­
ately ask your SUZUKI dealer to inspect the brake system. . • A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak In the brake system which should be
inspected by your SUZUKI dealer
immediately.
• Brake fluid can harm your eyes and
damage painted surfaces. Use cau­
tion when refilling the reservoir. • Do not use any fluid other than SAE
J1703 or DOT3 brake fluid. Do not use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has
been stored in old or open contain­
ers. It is essential that foreign parti­cles and other liquids are kept out of the brake fluid reservoir.
