Continuously variable
transaxle (CVT) fluid
Specified fluid
Use a CVT fluid SUZUKI CVT FLUID
GREEN-2.
Fluid level check
You must check the fluid level with the CVT
fluid at normal operating temperature.
To check the fluid level:
1) To warm up the CVT fluid, drive the
vehicle for more 5 km.
NOTE:
Do not check the fluid level if you have just
driven the vehicle for a long time at high
speed, or if you have driven in city traffic in
hot weather, or if the vehicle has been pull-
ing a trailer. Wait until the fluid cools down
(about 30 minutes), or the fluid level indi-
cation will not be correct.
2) Park your vehicle on level ground.
3) Apply the parking brake and then start
the engine in “P” (Park). Let it idle for
two minutes and keep it running during
the fluid level check.
4) With your foot on the brake pedal,
move the gearshift lever through each
gear, pausing for about three seconds
in each range. Then move it back to the
“P” (Park) position.
NOTICE
When replacing spark plugs, you
should use the brand and type speci-
fied for your vehicle. For the specified
plugs, refer to “SPECIFICATIONS”
section in the end of this book. If you
wish to use a brand of spark plug
other than the specified plugs, con-
sult your SUZUKI dealer.
NOTICE
Driving with too much or too little
fluid can damage the transaxle.
NOTICE
Be sure to use the specified CVT
fluid. Using CVT fluid other than

damage the CVT of your vehicle.
