VEHICLE LOADING AND TOWING
Vehicle LoadingYour vehicle was designed for specific weight
capacities. The weight capacities of your
vehicle are indicated by the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) and the Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR, front and rear). The
GVWR and GAWR (front and rear) are listed
in the “SPECIFICATIONS” section.
GVWR – Maximum permissible overall weight
of the fully loaded vehicle (including all the
occupants, accessories and cargo plus the
trailer nose weight if towing a trailer).
GAWR – (Front and Rear) Maximum per-
missible weight on an individual axle.
Actual weight of the loaded vehicle and actual
loads at the front and rear axles can only be
determined by weighing the vehicle. Compare
these weights to the GVWR and GAWR (front
and rear). If the gross vehicle weight or the
load on either axle exceeds these ratings, you
must remove enough weight to bring the load
down to the rated capacity.
w ww w
w WARNING
Always distribute cargo evenly. To
avoid personal injury or damage to your
vehicle, always secure cargo to prevent
it from shifting if the vehicle moves
suddenly. Place heavier objects on the
floor and as far forward in the cargo
area as possible. Never pile cargo
higher than the top of the seat backs.
w ww w
w WARNING
Never overload your vehicle. The gross
vehicle weight (sum of the weights of
the vehicle, all the occupants,
accessories, cargo plus trailer nose
V VV V
V
w ww w
w WARNING
V VV V
Vweight if towing a trailer) must never
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR). In addition, never
distribute a load so that the weight on
either the front or rear axle exceeds
the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).Trailer TowingYour MARUTI SUZUKI was originally
designed to carry people and a normal
amount of cargo, not to tow a trailer. MARUTI
SUZUKI does not recommend you use your
vehicle to tow a trailer if there is not any local
regulation about towing capacity permitted (for
example, registered or statutory towing
capacity). Towing a trailer can adversely affect
handling, durability, and fuel economy.When you tow your vehicle, follow the
instructions below to avoid accidents
and damage to your vehicle. In addition,
be sure to observe government and
local requirements regarding vehicle
lighting and trailer hitches or tow bars.
w ww w
w WARNING
Towing Your VehicleYour vehicle may be towed behind another
Vehicle (such as a motorhome), provided
you use the proper towing method specified
for your vehicle. The towing method you
must use depends on the specifications of
your vehicle: whether it is a manual
transmission vehicle or an automatic
transmission vehicle.
Use the towing instruction table to select the
proper towing method for your vehicle, and
carefully follow the corresponding
instructions. Be sure to use proper towing
equipment designed for recreational towing
and make sure that towing speed does not
exceed 90 km/h.
w ww w
w WARNING
A safety chain should always be used
when you tow your vehicle.

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 yellow for easy identification. Pull out
the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with a clean cloth,
insert the dipstick all the way into the engine,
then remove it again. The oil on the stick
should be between the upper and lower
limits shown on the stick. If the oil level
indication is near the lower limit, add enough
oil to raise the level to the upper limit.

Refilling (Petrol)
Refilling (Diesel)Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil slowly
through the filler hole to bring the oil level
to the upper limit on the dipstick. Be careful
not to overfill. Too much oil is almost as
bad as too little oil. After refilling, start the
engine and allow it to idle for about a
minute. Stop the engine, wait about 5 min-
utes and check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and FilterDrain the engine oil while the engine is still
warm.

CAUTION
To avoid damaging your cooling system:
Always use a high quality ethylene
glycol base non-silicate based
coolant diluted with distilled water
at the correct mixture concentration.
Make sure that the proper mix is 50/
50 coolant to distilled water (Diesel)
and 30/70 (For petrol). Concen-
trations other than this may cause
overheating conditions.
Neither use 100% coolant nor 100%
plain water.
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.Coolant Level CheckCheck the coolant level at the reservoir
tank, not at the radiator. With the engine
cool, the coolant level should be between
the “FULL” and “LOW” marks.
Selection of CoolantTo maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use MARUTI
Genuine Coolant or equivalent.
This type of coolant is best for your cooling
system as it:
Helps maintain proper engine tempera-
ture.
Gives proper protection against freezing
and boiling.
Gives proper protection against corrosion
and rust.
Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-
age your cooling system. Your MARUTI
SUZUKI authorized dealer can help you
select the proper coolant.
w ww w
w WARNING
It is hazardous to remove the reservoir
tank cap (degassing tank cap) for Diesel
engine when the water temperature is
high, because scalding fluid and steam
may be blown out under pressure. Wait
until the coolant temperature has
lowered before removing the cap.
Adding Coolant(For Petrol Engine Model)
If the coolant level is below the “LOW”
mark, more coolant should be added.Remove the reservoir tank cap and add
coolant until the reservoir tank level reaches
the “FULL” mark. Never fill the reservoir
tank above the “FULL” mark.
(For Diesel Engine Model)
If the coolant level is below the “LOW”
mark, more coolant should be added. When
the engine is cool, remove the degassing
tank cap by turning it anticlockwise slowly
to release any pressure. And add coolant
until the degassing tank level reaches the
“FULL” mark. Never fill the degassing tank
above the “FULL” mark.
The mixture you use should contain
50% concentration of antifreeze.
If the lowest ambient temperature in
your area is expected to be – 35°C
(–31°F) or below, use higher
concentrations up to 60% following
