follow this can result in coolant leak-
age.
WA R N I N G
It is hazardous to remove the reser-
voir tank cap (degassing tank cap) for
a diesel engine when the water tem-
perature is high, because scalding
fluid and steam may be blown out
under pressure. Wait until the coolant
temperature has lowered before
removing the cap.

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, mis-
fire etc., the cause may be located not only
on spark plugs but also on deteriorated
ignition wirings (generally, used for more
than 80,000 km or five years). If spark plug
replacement does not solve the problem,
have the ignition wiring and other ignition
system inspected by your MARUTI
SUZUKI dealer.Gear OilManual Transaxle Oil / Auto Gear

Tire Rotation
60G-09-019E
To avoid uneven wear of your tires and to
prolong their life, rotate the tires as illus-
trated. Tires should be rotated as men-
tioned in periodic maintenance schedule.
After rotation, adjust front and rear tire
pressures to the specification listed on
your vehicle’s Tire Inflation Pressure Label.
Wheel Balancing
If the vehicle vibrates abnormally on
smooth road, have the wheel balanced at
Maruti Suzuki Authorized Workshop.
Wheel Alignment
In case of abnormal tire wear or pulling
towards one side, have the wheel aligned
at Maruti Suzuki Authorized Workshop.Tubeless Tires (If equipped)
The vehicle is equipped with Tubeless
Tires. In tubeless tire, a thin layer of butyl
rubber is used for lining the inside of the
tubeless tire. This layer is to prevent air
loss and fulfilling the purpose of tube. The
air pressure is maintained by the sealing
between tire bead and wheel rim. Tubelesstires are having advantage of slow air loss
and preventing sudden deflation while driv-
ing.
Care and maintenance tips for tubeless
tires
1) Always maintain recommended inflation
pressure. Driving continuously at low
inflation pressure can lead to tire dam-
age.
2) In case any leakage is found, check for
any nail penetration/valve core dam-
age or rim bent. Damaged wheel must
not be used.
3) In case tire has run at low pressure, it
must be inspected for any defect.
4) Whenever new tire is fitted, replace the
valve.
5) If continuous high speed driving is
required, increase tires pressure by 5
psi over recommended inflation pres-
sure.
6) Never run the tire beyond TWI (Tread
wear indicator). The tire is recom-
mended to be replaced when the
remaining tread has worn to this point.
The indicators are spaced across the
tread around the tire marked by a trian-
gular symbol (TWI).
7) Always prefer tubeless tire mounting
machine. In case of manual mounting-
tire/wheel rim damage may occur.
8) In case of any problem, please get in
touch with MARUTI SUZUKI Authorized
workshop.
WA R N I N G
Your MARUTI SUZUKI is equipped
with tires which are all the same
type and size. This is important to
ensure proper steering and han-
dling of the vehicle. Never mix tires
of different size or type on the four
wheels of your vehicle. The size
and type of tires used should be
only those approved by MARUTI
SUZUKI as standard or optional
equipment for your vehicle.
Replacing the wheels and tires
equipped on your vehicle with cer-
tain combinations of after-market
wheels and tires can significantly
change the steering and handling
characteristics of your vehicle.
Therefore, use only those wheel
and tire combinations approved by
MARUTI SUZUKI as standard or
optional equipment for your vehi-
cle.
NOTICE
Replacing the original tires with tires
of a different size may result in false
speedometer or odometer readings.
