fitted to another vehicle, start the
engine of the vehicle with the booster
battery. Run the engine at moderate
speed.

If the Starter Does Not
Operate1) Try turning the ignition switch to the
“START” position or try pressing the
engine switch to change the ignition
mode to “START” with the headlights
turned on to determine the battery con-
dition. If the headlights go excessively
dim or go off, it usually means that
either the battery is flat or the battery
terminal contact is poor. Recharge the
battery or correct battery terminal con-
tact as necessary.
2) If the headlights remain bright, check
the fuses. If the reason for failure of the
starter is not obvious, there may be a
major electrical problem. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your authorized MAR-
UTI SUZUKI dealer.If the Engine is Flooded(Vehicle without Keyless Push Start
System)
If the engine is flooded with Petrol, it may
be hard to start. If this happens, press the
accelerator pedal all the way to the floor
and hold it there while cranking the engine.
For Petrol engine model, do not operate
the starter motor for more than 12 sec-
onds.
For diesel engine model, do not operate
the starter motor for more than 30 sec-
onds.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
Never connect the jump lead directly
to the negative (–) terminal of the dis-
charged battery, or an explosion may
occur.
