Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 1183KFUEL RECOMMENDATION
FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Petrol Engine
You must use unleaded petrol with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher.
Diesel Engine
The diesel fuel should be with cetane num-
ber (CN) higher than 51 and sulphur con-
tent less than 350 ppm (parts per million).
Do not use marine diesel fuel, heating oils
and so forth.
Petrol/Ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded petrol and ethanol (grain
alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in some areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% etha-
nol. Make sure this petrol-ethanol blend has
octane ratings no lower than those
recommended for petrol.
Petrol/Methanol blends
Blends of unleaded petrol and methanol
(wood alcohol) are also commercially avail-
able in some areas. DO NOT USE fuels
containing 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 MARUTI SUZUKI and may
not be covered under the New Vehicle
Warranty.Fuels containing 5% or less methanol may
be suitable for use in your vehicle if they
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
are using a petrol/alcohol blend, you should
switch back to unleaded petrol containing no
alcohol.The fuel tank has an air space to
allow for fuel expansion in hot
weather. If you continue to add fuel
after the filler nozzle has automatically
shut off or an initial blowback occurs,
the air chamber will become full.
Exposure to heat when fully fuelled in
this manner will result in leakage due
to fuel expansion. To prevent such
fuel leakage, stop filling after the filler
nozzle has automatically shut off, or
when using an alternative non
automatic system, initial vent
blowback occurs.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alcohol
can cause paint damage, which is not
covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

w WARNING
When the engine is running, keep
hands, hair, clothing, tools, etc. away
from the moving fan and drive belts.
(For Petrol Engine Model)
Make sure the drive belt tension is correct.
If the belt is too loose, insufficient battery
charging, engine overheating, poor power
steering, poor air conditioning, or excessive
belt wear can result. When you press the
belt with your thumb midway between the
pulleys, there should be a deflection
according to the following chart.
The belts should also be examined to
ensure that they are not damaged.
If you need to replace or adjust the belt
have it done by your MARUTI SUZUKI

CAUTION
To tighten the oil filter properly, it is
Important to accurately identify the
position at which the filter gasket first
contacts the mounting surface.
CAUTION
To prevent oil leakage, make sure that
the oil filter is tight, but do not over-
tighten it.
(1) Loosen
(2) Tighten
NOTE:
Replace ring along with the new filter never
use the old ring in the new filter.5) Tighten the filter specified turn from the
point of contact with the mounting sur-
face (or to the specified torque) using an
oil filter wrench.Tightening torque for oil filter
Petrol Engine
3/4 turn or
14 Nm (1.4 kg-m, 10.5 lb-ft)
Diesel Engine

Refill with Oil and Check for Leaks1) Pour oil through the filler hole and install
the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to the “CAPACITIES” item in the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section.
2) Start the engine and look carefully for
leaks at the oil filter and drain plug. 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 leaks again.
CAUTION
When replacing the oil filter, it is
recommended that you use a
MARUTI genuine replacement filter.

NOTE:
If your engine is equipped with the high-
tension cord type ignition wiring and you
experience some firing problem of spark
plugs, such as, hard engine-starting, misfire
etc., the cause may be located not only on
spark plugs but also on deteriorated ignition
wirings (generally, used for more than 80000
km or five years). If spark plug replacement
does not solve the problem, have theEXAMPLEV VV V

appropriate viscosity and grade.
We highly recommend you use:
API GL-4 SAE 75W-90.
83K-07-027
Gear Oil Level Check
(1) Oil filler and level plug
(for petrol engine model)
(2) Oil filler and level plug
(for diesel engine model)
To check the gear oil level, use the follow-
ing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface withthe parking brake applied. Then, stop the
engine.
2) Remove the oil filler plug.
3) Feel the inside of the hole with your fin-
ger. If the oil level comes up to the bot-
tom 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 plug hole (1) until
the oil level reaches the bottom of the
filler hole, then reinstall the plug.
Tightening torque (1):

After driving the vehicle, the trans-
mission oil temperature may be high
enough to burn your skin. Wait until
the oil filler plug is cool enough to
touch with your bare hands before
inspecting transmission oil.
CAUTION
When tightening the plug, apply the
following sealing compound or
equivalent to the plug threads to pre-
vent oil leakage.

slight resistance. The play in the clutchpedal should be between the specified val-
ues. If the play is more or less than the
above, or clutch dragging is felt with the
pedal fully depressed, have the clutch
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
Fluid Control Clutch (For Diesel)Check the clutch pedal for smooth operation
and brake fluid level from time to time.
If clutch dragging is felt with the pedal fully
depressed, have the clutch inspected by your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer. If the brake fluid
level is near the “MIN” line, fill it up to the
“MAX” line with Maruti Genuine brake fluid.
