INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Fuel filter
(Diesel engine model)
If the fuel filter warning light comes on
when driving, there is a possibility that
water is in the fuel filter. Drain water as
soon as possible. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorised Maruti Suzuki
workshop.
Brakes
Brake fluid
66RH139
Check the brake fluid level by looking at
the reservoir in the engine compartment.
Check that the fluid level is between “MAX”
and “MIN” lines. If the brake fluid level is
near “MIN” line, fill it up to “MAX” line with
Maruti Genuine Brake Fluid (MGBF) or
DOT 3.
We highly recommend to use “Maruti Gen-
uine Brake Fluid” (MGBF).
WARNING
Failure to follow the guidelines below
can result in personal injury or seri-
ous damage to the brake system.
• If the brake fluid in the reservoir
drops below a certain level, the
brake warning light on the instru-
ment cluster will come on (the
engine must be running with the
parking brake fully disengaged).
Should the light come on, immedi-
ately ask your authorised Maruti
Suzuki workshop to inspect the
brake system.
• A rapid fluid loss indicates leakage
in the brake system which should
be inspected by your authorised
Maruti Suzuki workshop immedi-
ately.
• Do not use any fluid other than
Maruti Genuine Brake Fluid (MGBF)
or DOT 3. Do not use reclaimed
fluid or fluid that has been stored in
old or open containers. It is essen-
tial that foreign particles and other
liquids are kept out of the brake
fluid reservoir.
CAUTION
Brake fluid can harm your eyes and
damage painted surfaces. Be careful
when refilling the reservoir.
