NOTE:
• (For EU countries)
The replacement timing varies with the
type of engine oil that you choose.
Refer to “Maintenance schedule” in this
section for corresponding maintenance
schedule.
• (For Mexico)
For additional instruction, refer to “SUP-
PLEMENT” section in the end of this
book.
SAE 0W-20 (1) is the best choice for good
fuel economy and good starting in cold
weather.
NOTE:
We recommend that you use SUZUKI gen-
uine oil. To purchase it, see your SUZUKI
dealer.
(For diesel engine model)
Check that the engine oil you use comes
under the quality classification of ACEA
C2.
SAE 0W-30 is the best choice for good fuel
economy and good starting in cold
weather. Oil level check

(3) Engine oil dipstick
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.
The handle of the engine oil dipstick is col-
ored with yellow for easy identification.
NOTICE
Use only the recommended ACEA
C2. Use of non-recommended engine
oil will cause damage to a diesel
engine and DPF
®.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
54P00-01E
Refill with oil and oil leakage check
1) Pour oil through the filler hole and
install the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to “Capacities” in “SPECIFICA-
TIONS” section.
2) Start the engine and carefully check the
oil filter and the drain plug for leakage.
Run the engine at various speeds for at
least 5 minutes.
3) Stop the engine and wait about 5 min-
utes. Check the oil level again and add
oil if necessary. Check for leakage
again.
Engine coolant
Selection of coolant
To maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use SUZUKI gen-
uine coolant or equivalent.
NOTE:
If you replace the engine coolant with cool-
ant other than “SUZUKI LLC: Super
(Blue)”, follow the schedule of “SUZUKI
LLC: Standard (Green)”. To see the detail
of the maintenance schedule, refer to
“Maintenance schedule” in this section.
This type of coolant is the best for cooling
system for the following reasons:
• The coolant helps maintain proper
engine temperature.
• It gives proper protection against freez-
ing and boiling.
• It gives proper protection against corro-
sion and rust.
Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-
age your cooling system. Your authorizedSUZUKI dealer can help you select the
proper coolant.
NOTICE
• When replacing the oil filter, it is
recommended that you use a genu-
ine SUZUKI replacement filter. If
you use an aftermarket filter, check
that it is of equivalent quality and
follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
• Oil leakage from the periphery of
the oil filter or drain plug indicate
incorrect installation or gasket
damage. If you find any leakage or
are not sure that the filter has been
properly tightened, have the vehi-
cle inspected by your SUZUKI
dealer.
NOTICE
“SUZUKI LLC: Super (Blue) coolant”;
This coolant is already diluted to the
proper percentage. Do not dilute with
distilled water additionally. Doing so
may result in the possibility of freez-
ing and/or overheating coolant.
NOTICE
To avoid damaging your cooling sys-
tem:
• Always use a high quality ethylene
glycol base non-silicate type cool-
ant diluted with distilled water at
the correct mixture concentration.
• Check that the proper mix is 50/50
coolant to distilled water and in no
case higher than 70/30. Concentra-
tions greater than 70/30 coolant to
distilled water will cause overheat-
ing conditions.
• Do not use straight coolant nor
plain water (except “SUZUKI LLC:
Super (Blue)”).
• Do not add extra inhibitors or addi-
tives. They may not be compatible
with your cooling system.
• Do not mix different types of base
coolants. Doing so may result in
accelerated seal wear and/or the
possibility of severe overheating
and extensive engine damage.

6) Check carefully for damage to painted
surfaces. If there is any damage, touch
up the damage following the procedure
below:
1. Clean all damaged spots and allow
them to dry.
2. Stir the paint and touch up the dam-
aged spots lightly using a small
brush.
3. Allow the paint to dry completely.Waxing
60B211S
After washing the vehicle, waxing and pol-
ishing are recommended to further protect
and beautify the paint.
• Only use waxes and polishes of good
quality.
• When using waxes and polishes,
observe the precautions specified by the
manufacturers.
NOTICE
If you use an automatic car wash,
check that your vehicle’s body parts,
such as spoilers, cannot be dam-
aged. If you are in doubt, consult the
car wash operator for advice.

SUPPLEMENT
54P00-01E
NOTE:
Oxygenated fuels are fuels which contain
oxygen-carrying additives such as MTBE
or alcohol.
If “RON 95” label is attached, you must use
unleaded gasoline with a minimum rating
of 91 pump octane ((R + M)/2 method).
Gasoline containing MTBE
Unleaded gasoline containing MTBE
(methyl tertiary butyl ether) may be used in
your vehicle if the MTBE content is not
greater than 15%. This oxygenated fuel
does not contain alcohol.
Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol,
may be used in your vehicle if the ethanol
content is not greater than 10%.
Gasoline-methanol blends
Fuels containing 5% or less methanol
(wood alcohol) may be suitable for use in
your vehicle if they contain cosolvents and
corrosion inhibitors. Do not use fuels con-
taining more than 5% methanol under any
circumstances. Fuel system damage or
vehicle performance problems resulting
from the use of such fuels are not the
responsibility of SUZUKI and may not be
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Fuel pump labeling
In some states, pumps that dispense oxy-
genated fuels are required to be labeled
for the type and percentage of oxygenate
and whether important additives are pres-
ent. Such labels may provide enough infor-
mation for you to determine if a particular
blend of fuels meets the requirements
listed above. In other areas, pumps may
not be clearly labeled as to the content or
type of oxygenate and additives. If you are
not sure that the fuel you intend to use
meets these requirements, check with the
service station operator or the fuel sup-
plier.
NOTE:
To help clean the air, SUZUKI recom-
mends you use the oxygenated fuels.
However, if you are not satisfied with the
driveability or fuel economy of your vehicle
when you are using an oxygenated fuel,
switch back to the regular unleaded gaso-
line.
Engine oil and filter
Specified oil
“Starburst” symbol
80JC103
Use engine oil for gasoline engines with
the above “Starburst” symbol, certified by
American Petroleum Institute.
We highly recommend you use SAE 0W-20
or 5W-30 oil.
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for good fuel
economy and good starting in cold
weather.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alco-
hol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
NOTICE
Failure to use the recommended oil
can result in engine damage.
