INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING

(Continued)

• When the engine is running, keep

hands, clothing, tools, and other

objects away from the fan and drive

belt. Even though the fan may not

be moving, it can automatically

turn on without warning.

• Keep used oil, coolant, and other

fluids away from children and pets.

Dispose of used fluids properly;

never pour them on the ground,

into sewers, etc.

60B128S

• When it is necessary to perform

service work with the engine run-

ning, check that the parking brake

is set fully and the transaxle is in

Neutral (for manual transaxle vehi-

cles) or Park (for automatic tran-

saxle or CVT vehicles).

• Do not touch ignition wires or other

ignition system parts when starting

the engine or when the engine is

running, or you could receive an

electric shock.

• Be careful not to touch a hot

engine, exhaust manifold and

pipes, muffler, radiator and water

hoses.

• Do not allow smoking, sparks, or

flames around fuel or the battery.

Flammable fumes are present.

• Do not get under your vehicle if it is

supported only with the portable

jack provided in your vehicle.

• Be careful not to cause accidental

short circuits between the positive

and negative battery terminals.

(Continued)

WARNING

Take extreme care when working on

your vehicle to prevent accidental

injury. Carefully observe the follow-

ing precautions:

• To prevent damage or unintended

activation of the air bag system or

seat belt pretensioner system, check

that the lead-acid battery is discon-

nected and the ignition switch has

been in “LOCK” position or the igni-

tion mode has been “LOCK” (OFF)

for at least 90 seconds before per-

forming any electrical service work

on your SUZUKI vehicle. Do not

touch air bag system components,

seat belt pretensioner system com-

ponents or wires.

The wires are wrapped with yellow

tape or yellow tubing, and the cou-

plers are yellow for easy identifica-

tion.

• Do not leave the engine running in

garages or other confined areas.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

Maintenance schedule

NOTICE

Whenever it becomes necessary to

replace parts on your vehicle, it is

recommended that you use genuine

SUZUKI replacement parts or their

equivalent.

The following table shows the timing when

you should perform regular maintenance

on your vehicle. This table shows in miles,

kilometers and months when you should

perform inspections, adjustments, lubrica-

tion and other services. These intervals

should be shortened if driving is usually

done under severe conditions (refer to

“Maintenance recommended under severe

driving conditions”).

WARNING

SUZUKI recommends that mainte-

nance on items marked with an aster-

isk (*) be performed by an authorized

SUZUKI dealer or a qualified service

technician. If you are qualified, you

may perform maintenance on the

unmarked items by referring to the

instructions in this section. If you are

not sure whether you can success-

fully complete any of the unmarked

maintenance jobs, ask an authorized

SUZUKI dealer to do the maintenance

for you.

Run the engine at various speeds for at

least 5 minutes.

3) Stop the engine and wait about 5 min-

utes. Check the oil level again and add

oil if necessary. Check for leakage

again.

SUZUKI LLC: Super (Blue) coolant;

This coolant is already diluted to the

proper percentage. Do not dilute with

distilled water additionally. Doing so

may result in the possibility of freez-

ing and/or overheating coolant.

• Always use a high quality ethylene

glycol base non-silicate type cool-

ant diluted with distilled water at

the correct mixture concentration.

• Check that the proper mix is 50/50

coolant to distilled water and in no

case higher than 70/30. Concentra-

tions greater than 70/30 coolant to

distilled water will cause overheat-

ing conditions.

To maintain optimum performance and

durability of your engine, use SUZUKI gen-

uine coolant or equivalent.

NOTICE

• Do not use straight coolant nor

plain water (except “SUZUKI LLC:

Super (Blue)”).

• Do not add extra inhibitors or addi-

tives. They may not be compatible

with your cooling system.

• Do not mix different types of base

coolants. Doing so may result in

accelerated seal wear and/or the

possibility of severe overheating

and extensive engine/automatic

transaxle or CVT damage.

• When replacing the oil filter, it is

recommended that you use a genu-

ine SUZUKI replacement filter. If

you use an aftermarket filter, check

that it is of equivalent quality and

follow the manufacturer’s instruc-

tions.

• Oil leakage from the periphery of

the oil filter or drain plug indicate

incorrect installation or gasket

damage. If you find any leakage or

are not sure that the filter has been

properly tightened, have the vehi-

cle inspected by an authorized

SUZUKI dealer.

NOTE:

If you use the engine coolant other than

the SUZUKI LLC: Super (Blue) for replace-

ment, follow the schedule of SUZUKI LLC:

Standard (Green). To see the detail of the

maintenance schedule, refer to “Periodic

maintenance schedule” in this section.

This type of coolant is the best for cooling

system for the following reasons:

• The coolant helps maintain proper

engine temperature.

• It gives proper protection against freez-

ing and boiling.

• It gives proper protection against corro-

sion and rust.

when tires cool down. Also, tires that are

inflated to the specified pressure in a warm

garage may have pressure below the

specification when the vehicle is driven

outside in very cold temperature. If you

adjust the tire pressure in a garage that is

warmer than the outside temperature, you

should add 1 kPa to the recommended

cold tire inflation pressure for every 0.8°C

difference between garage temperature

and outside temperature.

52RM70040

Steering wheel play “c”:

0 – 30 mm (0.0 – 1.2 in.)

The front and rear tire pressure specifica-

tions are listed in the tire information label.

Both front and rear tires should have the

specified tire pressure.

Check the free play of the steering wheel

by gently turning it from left to right and

measuring the distance that it moves

before you feel slight resistance. The play

should be between the specified values.

NOTE:

The tire inflation pressure will change due

to changes in atmospheric pressure, tem-

perature or tire temperature when driving.

To reduce the chance that the low tire

pressure warning light will come on due to

normal changes in temperature and atmo-

spheric pressure, it is important to check

and adjust the tire pressures when the

tires are cold. If you check tires after driv-

ing, they are warm. Even if the tire pres-

sure seems to be good in this condition, it

could fall below the specified pressure

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 not as specified or

you find anything else to be wrong, an

inspection must be performed by an autho-

rized SUZUKI dealer.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

CAUTION

Tire inspection

EXAMPLE

Inspect your vehicle’s tires at least once a

month or before long trip by performing the

following checks:

Hitting curbs and running over rocks

can damage tires and affect wheel

alignment. Have tires and wheel

alignment checked periodically by an

authorized SUZUKI dealer.

1) Measure the air pressure with a tire

gauge. Adjust the pressure if neces-

sary. Remember to check the spare

tire, too.

4) Check for loose wheel nuts.

5) Check that there are no nails, stones or

other objects sticking into the tires.

WARNING

• 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 under-inflate or over-inflate

the tires.

Under-inflation 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.

WARNING

54G136

• Your SUZUKI vehicle 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 SUZUKI as

standard or optional equipment for

your vehicle.

• Replacing the wheels and tires

equipped on your vehicle with cer-

tain combinations of aftermarket

wheels and tires can significantly

change the steering and handling

characteristics of your vehicle.

(1) Tread wear indicator

(2) Indicator location mark

2) 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 an authorized SUZUKI

dealer.

Over-inflation can cause the tire to

burst, resulting in personal injury.

Over-inflation can also cause

unusual handling characteristics

which may result in an accident.

• Therefore, use only those wheel

and tire combinations approved by

SUZUKI as standard or optional

equipment for your vehicle.

NOTICE

Replacing the original tires with tires

of a different size may result in false

speedometer or odometer readings.

Check with an authorized SUZUKI

dealer before purchasing replace-

ment tires that differ in size from the

original tires.

NOTICE

For 4WD models, replacing a tire with

one of a different size, or using differ-

ent brands among the four tires can

result in damage to the drive train.

(1) Wear indicator

To avoid uneven wear of your tires and to

prolong their life, rotate the tires as illus-

trated. Tires should be rotated every 10000

km (6000 miles). After rotation, adjust front

and rear tire pressures to the specification

listed in your vehicle’s tire information

label.

(2) Indicator location mark

Your vehicle comes equipped with a com-

pact spare tire. It is designed to save

space in your storage area, and its lighter

weight facilitates installing the spare tire

when getting a flat tire. It is only intended

for temporary emergency use, until the

conventional tire can be repaired or

replaced. The inflation pressure of the

compact spare tire should be checked at

least once a month. Use a quality pocket-

type inflation pressure gauge and set at

420 kPa (60 psi). At the same time, check

that the tire is stored securely. If it is not,

tighten it.

Fuses

WARNING

Batteries contain toxic substances

including sulfuric acid and lead. They

could have potential negative conse-

quences for the environment and

human health. Used batteries must

be disposed of or recycled according

to applicable rules or regulations and

must not be disposed of with ordi-

nary household trash. Make sure not

to tip over the battery when you

remove it from the vehicle. Other-

wise, sulfuric acid could run out and

you might get injury.

Your vehicle has three types of fuses, as

described below:

Main fuse

(5)

(6)

The main fuse takes current directly from

the lead-acid battery.

Primary fuses

These fuses are between the main fuse

and individual fuses, and are for electrical

load groups.

Pb

Individual fuses

These fuses are for individual electrical cir-

cuits.

51KM042

(5) Crossed-out wheeled bin symbol

(6) Chemical symbol of “Pb”

NOTICE

To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller pro-

vided in the fuse box cover.

The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol (5)

located on the battery label indicates that

the used battery should be collected sepa-

rately from ordinary household trash. The

chemical symbol of “Pb” (6) indicates the

battery contains more than 0.004% lead.

After stopping the engine, controller

and system are operated for a while.

Therefore, before removing the bat-

tery, wait for more than one minute

after turning the ignition switch to

“OFF” or changing the ignition mode

to “LOCK” (OFF).

EXAMPLE

By ensuring the used battery is disposed

of or recycled correctly, you will help pre-

vent potential negative consequences for

the environment and human health, which

could otherwise be caused by inappropri-

ate trash handling of the battery. The recy-

cling of materials will help to conserve

natural resources. For more detailed infor-

mation about disposing of or recycling the

used battery, consult an authorized

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

Check that there is washer fluid in the tank.

Refill it if necessary. Use a good quality

windshield washer fluid, diluted with water

as necessary.

1) To approach the air conditioner filter,

remove the glove box by pressing both

sides of the glove box inward and pull-

ing it out.

Air conditioning system

If you do not use the air conditioner for a

long period, such as during winter, it may

not give the best performance when you

start using it again. To help maintain opti-

mum performance and durability of your air

conditioner, it needs to be run periodically.

Operate the air conditioner at least once a

month for one minute with the engine

idling. This circulates the refrigerant and oil

and helps protect the internal components.

NOTE:

SUZUKI highly recommends the use of

ECSTAR brand windshield washer fluid.

ECSTAR has been specially formulated for

your SUZUKI product and contributes to

the desired vehicle performance and ideal

driving experience.

Do not use radiator antifreeze in the

can severely impair visibility when

sprayed on the windshield, and also

can damage your vehicle’s paint.

Since special procedures are required, ask

an authorized SUZUKI dealer for this job.

NOTICE

52RM70210

Damage may result if the washer

motor is operated with no fluid in the

washer tank.

2) Remove the cover (1) and pull out the
