INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
74LH0-74E
Check that the steering wheel turns easily
and smoothly without rattling by turning it
all the way to the right and to the left while
driving very slowly in an open area. If the
amount of free play is outside the specifi-
cation or you find anything else to be
wrong, an inspection must be performed
by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.Tires
74LHT0704
The front and rear tire pressure specifica-
tions for your vehicle are listed on the Tire
Information Label. Both the front and rear
tires should have the specified tire pres-
sure.Tire InspectionInspect your vehicle’s tires at least once a
month by performing the following checks:
1) Measure the air pressure with a tire
gauge. Adjust the pressure if neces-
sary. Remember to check the spare
tire, too.
54G136
(1) Tread wear indicator
(2) Indicator location mark2) Check that the depth of the tread
groove is more than 1.6 mm (0.06 in.).
To help you check this, the tires have
molded-in tread wear indicators in the
grooves. When the indicators appear
on the tread surface, the remaining
depth of the tread is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.)
or less and the tire should be replaced.
3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks and
damage. Any tires with cracks or other
damage should be replaced. If any tires
show abnormal wear, have them
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer.
4) Check for loose wheel nuts.
5) Check that there are no nails, stones or
other objects sticking into the tires.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
Air pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold or you may
get inaccurate readings.
Check the inflation pressure from
time to time while inflating the tire
gradually, until the specified pres-
sure is obtained.
Never underinflate or overinflate
the tires.
Underinflation can cause unusual
handling characteristics or can
cause the rim to slip on the tire
bead, resulting in an accident or
damage to the tire or rim.
Overinflation can cause the tire to
burst, resulting in personal injury.
Overinflation can also cause
unusual handling characteristics
which may result in an accident.EXAMPLE
CAUTION
Hitting curbs and running over rocks
can damage tires and affect wheel
alignment. Be sure to have tires and
wheel alignment checked periodi-
cally by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
74LH0-74E
Temporary Spare Tire (if equipped)Your vehicle comes equipped with the tem-
porary spare tire. It is only intended for
temporary emergency use, until the con-
ventional tire can be repaired or replaced.
The inflation pressure of the temporary
spare tire should be checked at least
monthly. At the same time, check that the
tire is stored securely. If it is not, tighten it.
Note that two or more temporary spare
tires should not be used on one vehicle
simultaneously.

WA R N I N G
The temporary spare tire and wheel
are intended for temporary emergency
use only. Continuous use of this spare
can result in tire failure and loss of
control. Always observe these precau-
tions when using this spare: Your vehicle will handle differently
with this temporary spare.
Do not exceed 80 km/h speed (only
vehicle with 185/65R15 tire).
Replace this spare with a standard
tire and wheel as soon as possible.
Use of this spare will reduce
ground clearance.
Set the specified tire pressure indi-
cated on the tire information label
located on the driver’s door lock
pillar.
Do not use tire chains on the tem-
porary spare. If you must use tire
chains, rearrange the wheels so
standard tires and wheels are fitted
to the front axle.
The temporary spare tire has a
much shorter tread life than the
conventional tires on your vehicle.
Replace the tire as soon as the
tread wear indicator appears.
When replacing the temporary
spare tire, use a replacement tire
with the exact same size and con-
struction.
WA R N I N G
Batteries produce flammable
hydrogen gas. Keep flames and
sparks away from the battery or an
explosion may occur. Never smoke
when working in the vicinity of the
battery.
When checking or servicing the
battery, disconnect the negative
cable. Be careful not to cause a
short circuit by allowing metal
objects to contact the battery posts
and the vehicle at the same time.
To avoid harm to yourself or dam-
age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump starting instructions
in the “EMERGENCY SERVICE”
section of this manual if it is neces-
sary to jump start your vehicle.EXAMPLE-1

Changing WheelsTo change a wheel, use the following pro-
cedure:
1) Clear all passengers and luggage from
the vehicle.
NOTE:
The Jack and tools are located under the
spare wheel.
2) Remove the jack, tools and spare wheel
from the vehicle.
3) Loosen, but do not remove the wheel
nuts.
4) Jack up the vehicle (follow the jacking
instructions in this section).

8) Lower the jack and fully tighten the nuts
in a crisscross fashion with a wrench as
shown in the illustration.
WARNING
Use the jack only to change wheels
on level, hard ground.
Never jack up the vehicle on an
inclined surface.
Never raise the vehicle with the
jack in a location other than the
specified jacking point (shown in
the illustration) near the wheel to
be changed.
Especially, do not raise the vehicle
with a jack at a part of the torsion
beam which is located under the
vehicle body, between rear wheels.
Make sure that the jack is raised at
least 51 mm (2 inches) before it
contacts the suspension arm boss.
Use of the jack when it is within 51
mm (2 inches) of being fully col-
lapsed may result in failure of the
jack.
Never get under the vehicle when it
is supported by the jack.
Never run the engine when the
vehicle is supported by the jack
and never allow passengers to
remain in the vehicle.
WARNING
Be sure to shift into “R” (Reverse)
when you jack up the vehicle.
Never jack up the vehicle with the
Transmission in “N” (Neutral). Oth-
erwise, unstable jack may cause an
accident.
WARNING
Use MARUTI genuine wheel nuts and
tighten them to the specified torque
as soon as possible after changing
wheels. Incorrect wheel nuts or
improperly tightened wheel nuts may
come loose or fall off, which can
result in an accident. If you do not
have a torque wrench, have the wheel
nuts torque checked by an autho-
rized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.EXAMPLE
