A CAUTION
The engine oil temperature may be high enough to burn your fingers when the drain plug is loosened. Wait until the drain plug is cool enough to touch with your bare hands.
Tightening torque for drain plug: 35 Nm (3.6 kg-m, 25.8 lb-ft)
A WARNING
Engine oil can be hazardous. Chil­dren and pets may be harmed by swallowing new or used oil. Keep new and used oil and used oil filters away from children and pets. Repeated, prolonged contact with used engine oil may cause skin can­cer. Brief contact with used oil may irri­tate skin. (Continued)
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
A WARNING
(Continued) To minimize your exposure to used oil, wear a long-sleeve shirt and moisture-proof gloves (such as dish­washing gloves) when changing oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash thor­oughly with soap and water. Launder any clothing or rags if it is with oil. Recycle or properly dispose of used oil and oil filters.
4) Reinstall the drain plug with new gas­ket. Tighten the plug with a wrench to the specified torque.
NOTE: • Whenever the engine oil is changed, the oil life monitoring must be reset to moni­tor the next oil change timing properly To reset the light, consult a SUZUKI dealer. If you reset it by yourself, refer to "Setting mode" in "BEFORE DRIVING" section. For more information of the oil change reminder light and oil life monitoring, refer to "Oil change reminder light (if equipped)" or "Information display" in "BEFORE DRIVING" section.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
To check the gear oil level, use the fol­lowing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface with the parking brake applied. Then, stop the engine. 2) Remove the oil filler and level plug.
For the manual transmission;
3) If gear oil fiows from the plug hole, the oil level is correct. Reinstall the plug. If gear oil does not fiow from the plug hole, add oil through the filler plug hole until oil fiows a little from the plug hole.

78RB07010
3) Check the inside of the hole with your finger. If the oil level comes up to the bottom of the plug hole, the oil level is correct. If so, reinstall the plug. 4) If the oil level is low, add gear oil through the oil filler and level plug hole until the oil level reaches the bottom of the filler hole, and then reinstall the plug.

EMERGENCY SERVICE
A. WARNING
Use genuine wheel nuts and tighten them to the specified torque as soon as possible after changing wheels.

Jump-starting instructions
A. WARNING
Never attempt to jump-start your vehicle if the lead-acid battery appears to be frozen. Batteries in this condition may explode. When making jump lead connec­tions, check that your hands and the jump leads remain clear from pulleys, belts or fans. Lead-acid batteries produce flam­mable hydrogen gas. Keep flames and sparks away from the battery or an explosion may occur. Never smoke when working near the bat­tery. If the booster battery you use for jump-starting is installed in another vehicle, check that the two vehicles are not touching each other. If your lead-acid battery discharges repeatedly, for no apparent reason, have your vehicle inspected by a SUZUKI dealer. • To avoid harm to yourself or dam­age to your vehicle or battery, fol­low the jump-starting instructions below. If you are in doubt, call for qualified road service.
NOTICE
Your vehicle should not be started by pushing or towing. This starting method could result in permanent damage to the catalytic converter. Use jump leads to start a vehicle with a weak or flat battery.
1) Use only a 12-volt lead-acid battery to jump-start your vehicle. Position the good 12-volt lead-acid battery close to your vehicle so that the jump leads will reach both batteries. When using a bat­tery installed on another vehicle, check that two vehicles do not touch each other. Set the parking brakes fully on both vehicles. 2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except those necessary for safety reasons (for example, headlights or hazard lights).
