your vehicle is equipped with the seat beltpretensioner system. You can use the pre-tensioner seat belts in the same manner asordinary seat belts.Read this section and “Supplementalrestraint system (airbags)” section to learnmore about the pretensioner system.
The seat belt pretensioner system workswith the supplemental restraint system (airbags). The collision sensors and the elec-tronic controller of the airbag system alsocontrol the seat belt pretensioners. Thepretensioners are triggered only whenthere is a frontal collision severe enough totrigger the airbags and the seat belts arefastened. For precautions and generalinformation including servicing the preten-sioner system, refer to “Supplementalrestraint system (airbags)” section in addi-tion to this “Seat belt pretensioner system”section, and follow all those precautions.
The pretensioner is located in each frontseat belt retractor. The pretensioner tight-ens the seat belt so the belt fits the occu-pant’s body more snugly in the event of afrontal collision. The retractors will remainlocked after the pretensioners are acti-vated. Upon activation, some noise willoccur and some smoke may bereleased.These conditions are not harmfuland do not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
The driver and all passengers must beproperly restrained by fastening seat beltsat all times, whether or not a pretensioner
is equipped at their seating position, tominimize the risk of severe injury or deathin the event of a collision.
Sit fully back in the seat; sit up straight; donot lean forward or sideways. Adjust thebelt so the lap portion of the belt is wornlow across the pelvis, not across the waist.Please refer to “Seat adjustment” sectionand the instructions and precautions aboutthe seat belts in this “Seat belts and childrestraint systems” section for details onproper seat and seat belt adjustments.
Please note that the pretensioners alongwith the airbags will activate in severe fron-tal collisions. They are not designed toactivate in rear impacts, roll-overs, orminor frontal collisions. The pretensionerscan be activated only once. If the preten-sioners are activated (that is, if the airbagsare activated), have the pretensioner sys-tem serviced by a Maruti Suzuki autho-rised workshop as soon as possible.
The pretensioner system or the airbag sys-tem may not work properly if any of the fol-lowing conditions occurs.• If the air bag light on the instrument clus-
ter does not come on briefly, when theignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-tion or the engine switch is pressed tochange the ignition mode to “ON”.
• If the air bag light comes on and stays onfor more than 10 seconds, when the igni-tion switch is turned to the “ON” position
or the engine switch is pressed tochange the ignition mode to “ON”.
• If the air bag light comes on while driv-ing.
Have both systems inspected by a MarutiSuzuki authorised workshop as soon aspossible.
Service on or around the pretensioner sys-tem components or wiring must be per-formed only by a Maruti Suzuki authorisedworkshop who is specially trained.Improper service could result in unin-tended activation of pretensioners or couldrender the pretensioner inoperative. Eitherof these two conditions may result in per-sonal injury.
To prevent damage or unintended activa-tion of the pretensioners, check that thelead-acid battery is disconnected and theignition switch has been in LOCK positionor the ignition mode has been LOCK(OFF) for at least 90 seconds before per-forming any electrical service work on yourMARUTI SUZUKI vehicle.
Do not touch pretensioner system compo-nents or wiring. The wires are wrappedwith yellow tape or yellow tubing, and thecouplers are yellow. When scrapping yourMARUTI SUZUKI vehicle, ask a MarutiSuzuki authorised workshop, body repairshop, or scrap yard for assistance.

Front Airbags
63J259
Front airbag is designed to inflate insevere frontal collisions when the ignitionswitch is in “ON” position or the ignitionmode is “ON”.
Front airbag is not designed to inflate inrear impacts, side impacts, rollovers orminor frontal collisions, since they wouldoffer no protection in those types of acci-dents.Remember, since an airbag deploysonly one time during an accident, seatbelts are needed to restrain occupantsfrom further movements during the acci-dent.
Therefore, an airbag is not a substitute forseat belts. To maximize your protection,always fasten your seat belts. Be awarethat no system can prevent all possibleinjuries that may occur in an accident.
Driver's front airbag

How the System WorksIn a frontal collision, the collision sensorswill detect rapid deceleration, and if thecontroller judges that the deceleration rep-resents a severe frontal collision, the con-troller will trigger the inflators. The inflatorsinflate the appropriate airbags with nitro-gen or argon gas. The inflated airbags pro-vide a cushion for your head and upperbody. The airbag inflates and deflates soquickly that you may not even realize that ithas activated. The airbag will neither hin-der your view nor make it harder to exit thevehicle.
Airbags must inflate quickly and forcefullyin order to reduce the chance of serious orfatal injuries. However, an unavoidableconsequence of the quick inflation is thatthe airbag may irritate bare skin, such asthe facial area against a front airbag. Washoff any residue as soon as possible to pre-vent skin irritation. Also, upon inflation, aloud noise will occur and some powderand smoke will be released. These condi-tions are not harmful and do not indicate afire in the vehicle. Be aware, however, thatsome airbag components may be hot for awhile after inflation.
A seat belt helps keep you in the properposition for maximum protection when anairbag inflates. Adjust your seat as farback as possible while still maintainingcontrol of the vehicle. Sit fully back in yourseat; sit up straight; do not lean over thesteering wheel or dashboard. Please referto the “Seat Adjustment” section and the“Seat Belts and Child Restraint Systems”in this section for details on proper seatand seat belt adjustments.

EXAMPLE
WARNING
• The driver should not lean over thesteering wheel. The front passen-ger should not rest his or her bodyagainst the dashboard, or other-wise get too close to the dash-board. In these situations, the out-of-position occupant would be tooclose to an inflating airbag, andmay suffer severe injury.
• Do not attach any objects to, orplace any objects over, the steeringwheel or dashboard. Do not placeany objects between the airbag andthe driver or front passenger.These objects may interfere withairbag operation or may be pro-pelled by the airbag in the event ofa collision. Also, these objects maymove when you start moving vehi-cle or while vehicle is moving, theymay interfere with driver’s view orsafe driving. In each conditionsmay cause severe injury.
• Do not strike or apply significantlevels of impact to the air bag com-ponent areas. It can cause the airbags to malfunction.

Note that even though your vehicle may bemoderately damaged in a collision, the col-lision may not have been severe enough totrigger the airbags to inflate. If your vehiclesustains any front-end or side damage,have the airbag system inspected by aMaruti Suzuki authorised workshop toensure it is in proper working order.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnosticmodule which records information aboutthe airbag system if the airbags deploy in acollision. The module records informationabout overall system status, which sensorsactivated the deployment, and for a certain
vehicle only, whether the driver’s seat beltwas in use.
Servicing the airbag systemIf the airbags inflate, have the airbags andrelated components replaced by a MarutiSuzuki authorised workshop as soon aspossible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water andthe driver’s floor is submerged, the airbagcontroller could be damaged. If it does,have the airbag system inspected by theMaruti Suzuki authorised workshop assoon as possible.
Special procedures are required for servic-ing or replacing an airbag. For that reason,only a Maruti Suzuki authorised workshopshould be allowed to service or replaceyour airbags. Please remind anyone whoservices your MARUTI SUZUKI that it hasairbags.
Service on or around airbag componentsor wiring must be performed only by aMaruti Suzuki authorised workshop.Improper service could result in unin-tended airbag deployment or could renderthe airbag inoperative. Either of these twoconditions may result in severe injury.
To prevent damage or unintended inflationof the airbag system, be sure the lead-acidbattery is disconnected and the ignitionswitch has been in the LOCK position forat least 90 seconds before performing anyelectrical service work on your MARUTI
SUZUKI. Do not touch airbag system com-ponents or wires. The wires are wrappedwith yellow tape or yellow tubing, and thecouplers are yellow for easy identification.
Scrapping a vehicle that has an uninflatedairbag can be hazardous. Ask your dealer,body repair shop or scrap yard for helpwith disposal.
WARNING
• Do not modify the system in anyway including replacing the steer-ing wheel, placing stickers on thesteering wheel pad, painting thesteering wheel, or covering thesteering wheel with a cover.
• Do not place stickers on or paintthe instrument panel. Do not installand set up accessories, air fresh-eners, ETC readers, or portablenavigation systems. Do not standumbrellas or similar in front of air-bags.

Brake System Warning Light
82K170
Three different types of operations existdepending on the vehicle’s specification.
• The light comes on briefly when the igni-tion switch is turned “ON” or pushed to“ON” mode.
• The light comes on when the parkingbrake is engaged with the ignition switchin “ON” position or the ignition mode is“ON”.
• The light comes on under either or bothof above two conditions.
The light also comes on when the fluid inthe brake fluid reservoir falls below thespecified level.
The light should go out after starting theengine and fully releasing the parkingbrake, if the fluid level in the brake fluidreservoir is adequate.
The light also comes on together with theABS warning light when the rear brakeforce control function (proportioning valvefunction) of the ABS system fails.
If the brake system warning light comes onwhile you are driving the vehicle, it maymean that there is something wrong withthe vehicle’s brake system. If this happens:
1) Pull off the road and stop carefully.
2) Test the brakes by carefully starting andstopping the vehicle on the shoulder ofthe road.
3) If you determine that it is safe, drive thevehicle cautiously at low speed to thenearest Maruti Suzuki authorised work-shop for repairs or tow the vehicle tothe nearest Maruti Suzuki authorisedworkshop for repairs.
NOTE:Because the brake system is self-adjust-ing, the fluid level will drop as the brakepads become worn. Replenishing thebrake fluid reservoir is considered normalperiodic maintenance.
NOTE:A buzzer sounds intermittently to remindyou to release the parking brake if youstart the vehicle without releasing the park-ing brake. Make sure that the parkingbrake is fully released and the brake sys-tem warning light turns off.
WARNING
Remember that stopping distancemay be longer, you may have to pushharder on the pedal, and the pedalmay go down farther than normal.
WARNING
If any of the following conditionsoccur, you should immediately ask aMaruti Suzuki authorised workshopto inspect the brake system.• If the brake system warning light
does not go out after the enginehas been started and the parkingbrake has been fully released.

Vehicle LoadingYour vehicle was designed for specificweight capacities. The weight capacities ofyour vehicle are indicated by the GrossVehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and thePermissible maximum Axle Weight (PAW,front and rear). The GVWR and PAW (frontand rear) are listed in “SPECIFICATIONS”section.
GVWR – Maximum permissible overallweight of the fully loaded vehicle (includingall the occupants, accessories and cargoplus the trailer nose weight if towing atrailer).PAW – (Front and Rear) Maximum permis-sible weight on an individual axle.
Actual weight of the loaded vehicle andactual loads at the front and rear axles canonly be determined by weighing the vehi-cle. Compare these weights to the GVWRand PAW (front and rear). If the gross vehi-cle weight or the load on either axleexceeds these ratings, you must removeenough weight to bring the load down tothe rated capacity.NOTICE
The heated rear window use a largeamount of electricity. Turn off theswitch after the window have becomeclear.

Daily Inspection Checklist
Before Driving
60A187S
1) Make sure that windows, mirrors, lightsand reflectors are clean and unob-structed.
2) Visually check the tires for the followingpoints:
– the depth of the tread groove– abnormal wear, cracks and damage– loose wheel nuts– existence of foreign material such as
nails, stones, etc.
Refer to “Tires” in “INSPECTION ANDMAINTENANCE” section for details.3) Look for fluid and oil leakage.
NOTE:It is normal for water to drip from the airconditioning system while and after use.
4) Make sure the hood is fully closed andlatched.
5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights,brake lights and horn for proper opera-tion.
6) Adjust the seat and head restraint (ifequipped).
7) Check the brake pedal and the parkingbrake lever.
8) Adjust the mirrors.9) Make sure that you and all passengers
have properly fastened the seat belts.10)Make sure that all warning lights come
on as the ignition switch is turned to ONposition or the ignition switch is turned“ON” or pushed to “ON” mode.
11)Check all gauges.12)Make sure that the BRAKE SYSTEM
WARNING light turns off when the park-ing brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fueltank or before a long distance driving (likehighway driving), perform the followingunder-hood checks:
vehicle. Make sure that you cannotopen the hood all the way withoutreleasing the secondary latch. Be sureto close the hood securely after check-ing for proper latch operation. See theitem “All latches, hinges and locks” of“CHASSIS AND BODY” in “PeriodicMaintenance Schedule” in “INSPEC-TION AND MAINTENANCE” section forlubrication schedule.
Once a month, or each time you fill yourfuel tank or before a long distance driving(like highway driving), check the tire pres-sure using a tire pressure gauge. Alsocheck the tire pressure of the spare tire.
EXAMPLE
WARNING
Make sure the hood is fully closedand latched before driving. If it is not,it can fly up unexpectedly duringdriving, obstructing your view andresulting in an accident.

Engine Oil ConsumptionIt is normal for the engine to consumesome engine oil during normal vehicleoperation.The amount of engine oil consumeddepends on viscosity and quality of the oiland your driving conditions. More oil is consumed during high-speeddriving and when there is frequent acceler-ation and deceleration. Under high loads,your engine also will consume more oil.A new engine also consumes more oil,since its pistons, piston rings and cylinderwalls have not yet become conditioned.New engines reach the normal level of oilconsumption only after approximately5000 km driving.
Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L per 1000 kmWhen judging the amount of oil consump-tion, note that the oil may become dilutedand it is difficult to judge the accurate oillevel. As an example, if a vehicle is used forrepeated short trips, and consumes a nor-mal amount of oil, the dipstick may notshow any drop in the oil level at all, evenafter 1000 km or more of driving. This isbecause the oil is gradually becomingdiluted with fuel or moisture, making itappear that the oil level has not changed.You should also be aware that the dilutingingredients evaporate out when the vehicleis subsequently driven at high speeds,such as on an expressway, making itappear that oil is excessively consumedafter high-speed driving.

If this indicator blinks when driving, theremay be something wrong with the ENG A-STOP system or the Smart Hybrid system.You should have the system inspected bya Maruti Suzuki authorised workshop.
ENG A-STOP System (Engine Auto Stop Start System) (if equipped)The ENG A-STOP system (engine autostop start system) automatically stops theengine while waiting briefly at a traffic light,etc., and automatically restarts the engineafterward. This system helps reduce emis-sions, improve fuel consumption and lowerengine noise.
This system stops the engine temporarilyunder specific conditions. Before parkingthe vehicle for an extended period of timeor leaving the vehicle, properly apply theparking brake and stop the engine with theignition switch or the engine switch.
Once the specific conditions are met, theengine will stop automatically after thevehicle has stopped. However, the enginewill not be stopped automatically until con-firmation of the system function is finished.
NOTE:If your vehicle is equipped with the auto airconditioning system, you can change theautomatic engine stop condition via theinformation display. Refer to “Informationdisplay” in “BEFORE DRIVING” section.
This lithium-ion battery is used exclusivelyfor the vehicle equipped with ENG A-STOP system or Smart Hybrid, andlocated below the front left side seat.• Just like a battery (lead-acid battery), the
lithium-ion battery also discharges grad-ually. To prevent the lithium-ion batteryfrom dying, you must charge the lithium-ion battery by driving continuously for atleast 30 minutes once a month.
• Vehicle should not be left with ignition inON or ACC position, or the ignition modeis “ON” or “ACC” for extended periods oftime.
• Do not add any external electrical load tolithium-ion battery.

Parking Sensors
Parking sensor system (Type A)(if equipped)The parking sensor system uses ultrasonicsensors to detect obstacles near the rearbumper. If obstacles are sensed while youare parking or moving the vehicle slowly,the system warns you by sounding abuzzer.• The system emits an ultrasonic wave
and the relevant sensor detects thereturn of the wave reflected by an obsta-cle. The system measures the timetaken by the ultrasonic wave to reach theobstacle and return from it, from which itdetermines the obstacle’s position.
• The parking sensor function can be usedwhen the ignition switch is turned “ON”or the engine switch is pressed tochange the ignition mode to “ON”, thegearshift lever is in R position. This func-tion is helpful in the following cases: pull-ing over to the curb; parallel-parking thevehicle; steering the vehicle into agarage; driving along an alley; and mov-ing slowly in a place with obstacles.
• The parking sensor warns you ofobstacles with buzzers. However,you must still pay full attentionyourself while driving.
• The sensors can detect obstaclesonly within a limited area and onlywhen the vehicle is moving within alimited speed range. So, in trickyareas, you must move the vehicleslowly while checking around itusing your direct vision or rearviewmirrors. There is increased risk ofan accident if you control the vehi-cle relying only on the parking sen-sor.
NOTICE
• Avoid hitting the sensor areas ordirecting the nozzle of a high-pres-sure car washer onto the sensorareas. Otherwise, the sensors maybe damaged.
• If the bumper hits a hard object, thesensors on it may not work prop-erly. If this occurs, have the sen-sors inspected by a Maruti Suzukiauthorised workshop.

The distance needed to bring any vehicleto a halt increases with the speed of thevehicle. The braking distance needed, forexample, at 60 km/h will be approximately4 times greater than the braking distanceneeded at 30 km/h. Start to depress thebrake pedal when there is plenty of dis-tance between your vehicle and the stop-ping point, and slow down gradually.

Power-Assisted BrakesYour vehicle has power-assisted brakes. Ifpower assistance is lost due to a stalledengine or other failures, the system is stillfully operational on reserve power and youcan bring the vehicle to a complete stop bypressing the brake pedal once and holdingit down. The reserve power is partly usedup when you depress the brake pedal andreduces each time the pedal is pressed.Apply smooth and even pressure to thepedal. Do not pump the pedal.
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)ABS will help you avoid skidding by elec-tronically controlling braking pressure. Itwill also help you maintain steering controlwhen braking on slippery surfaces or whenbraking hard.The ABS works automatically, so you donot need any special braking technique.Just push the brake pedal down withoutpumping. The ABS will operate wheneverit senses that the wheels are locking up.You may feel the brake pedal moves a littlewhile the ABS is operating.
NOTE:• The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is
under about 9 km/h.• If the ABS system is activated, you may
hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat-ing in the brake pedal. This is normaland indicates that the brake fluid pres-sure is being controlled properly.
• You may hear an operation sound whenyou start the engine or after the vehiclebegins to move. This means that theabove systems are in the self-checkmode. This sound does not indicate amalfunction.
WARNING
If water gets into the brake devices,brake performance may become poorand unpredictable. After drivingthrough water or washing the under-side of the vehicle, test the brakeswhile driving at a slow speed to see ifthey have maintained their normaleffectiveness. If the brakes are lesseffective than normal, dry them byrepeatedly applying the brakes whiledriving slowly until the brakes haveregained their normal effectiveness. WARNING
Even without reserve power in thebrake system, you can still stop thevehicle by pressing the brake pedalharder than normally required. How-ever, the stopping distance may belonger.

WARNING
• On some types of loose surfaces(such as gravel, snow-coveredroads, etc.), the stopping distancerequired for a vehicle with ABSmay be slightly greater than theone required for a comparable vehi-cle with a conventional brake sys-tem. With a conventional brakesystem, skidding tires are able toplow the gravel or snow layer,shortening the stopping distance.ABS minimizes this resistanceeffect. Allow for extra stopping dis-tance when driving on loose sur-faces.
• On regular paved roads, some driv-ers may be able to obtain slightlyshorter stopping distances withconventional brake systems thanwith ABS.
• In both of the above conditions,ABS will still offer the advantage ofhelping you maintain directionalcontrol. However, remember thatABS will not compensate for badroad or weather conditions or poordriver judgment. Use good judg-ment and do not drive too fast.
(1) (2)
EXAMPLE WARNING
• If the ABS warning light (1) on theinstrument panel comes on andstays on while driving, there maybe a problem with the ABS system.Ask a Maruti Suzuki authorisedworkshop to inspect the ABS sys-tem immediately. If the ABS systembecomes inoperative, the brakesystem will function as an ordinarybrake system that has no ABS.
• If the ABS warning light (1) and theBrake system warning light (2) onthe instrument panel simultane-ously stays on or comes on whiledriving, both anti-lock function andrear brake force control function(proportioning valve function) ofthe ABS system may have failed. Ifso, the rear wheels may easily skidor the vehicle can even spin in theworst case when braking on a slip-pery road or when hard brakingeven on a dry paved road. Ask aMaruti Suzuki authorised workshopto inspect the ABS system immedi-ately. Drive carefully, avoiding hardbraking as much as possible.

How the ABS WorksA computer continuously monitors wheelspeed. The computer compares thechanges in wheel speed when braking. Ifthe wheels slow suddenly, indicating askidding situation, the computer willchange braking pressure several timeseach second to prevent the wheels fromlocking. When you start your vehicle orwhen you accelerate after a hard stop, youmay hear a momentary motor or clickingnoise as the system resets or checks itself.“This is absolutely normal and indicate thatABS is functioning properly”.
Electronic stability program (ESP®) (if equipped)ESP® is a registered trademark of DaimlerAG.
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP®)helps to control the vehicle during corner-ing if front wheels or rear wheels skid. Italso assists you in maintaining tractionwhile accelerating on loose or slipperyroad surfaces. It does this by regulatingthe engine’s output, and by selectivelyapplying the brakes. In addition, ESP®
helps to avoid skidding by controlling brak-ing pressure.
The ESP® totally manages following foursystems, (stability control, traction control,ABS and Brake assist) to help enhancevehicle stability in response to various driv-ing conditions;
Stability control systemThe vehicle stability control system helpsprovide integrated control of systems suchas anti-lock brakes, traction control, enginecontrol, etc. This system automaticallycontrols the brakes and engine to help pre-vent the vehicle from skidding when cor-nering on a slippery road surface or whenturning the steering wheel abruptly.
Traction control systemThe traction control system automaticallyhelps prevent the spinning of wheels whenthe vehicle is started or accelerated onslippery road surfaces. The system oper-ates only if it senses that some of thewheels are spinning or beginning to losetraction. When this happens, the systemoperates the front or rear brakes andreduces engine power to limit wheel spin.
NOTE:You may hear an operation sound whenyou start the engine or after the vehiclebegins to move. This means that theabove systems are in the self-check mode.This sound does not indicate a malfunc-tion.
WARNING
The ABS may not work properly iftires or wheels other than thosespecified in the owner’s manual areused. This is because the ABS worksby comparing changes in wheelspeed. When replacing tires orwheels, use only the size and typespecified in this owner’s manual.
WARNING
The ESP® cannot enhance the vehi-cle’s driving stability in all situationsand does not control your vehicle’sentire braking system. The ESP® can-not prevent accidents, includingthose resulting from excessive speedin turns, or hydroplaning. Only safeand attentive drive can prevent acci-dents. The capabilities of an ESP®-equipped vehicle must never be usedas a substitute for careful driving.

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)ABS will help you avoid skidding by elec-tronically controlling braking pressure. Itwill also help you maintain steering controlwhen braking on slippery surfaces or whenbraking hard. The ABS works automati-cally, so you do not have to use any spe-cial braking technique. Just push the brakepedal down without pumping. The ABS willoperate whenever it senses that wheelsare locking up. You may feel the brakepedal pulsate while the ABS is operating.(For more information on ABS, see “Brak-ing” in this section.)
NOTE:• The ABS will not work if vehicle speed is
under about 9 km/h.• If the ABS system is activated, you may
hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat-ing in the brake pedal. This is normaland indicates that the brake fluid pres-sure is being controlled properly.
Brake assist systemWhen you step on the brake pedal, thebrake assist system determines it to be anemergency stop and provides more power-ful braking for a driver who cannot holddown the brake pedal firmly.
NOTE:If you quickly and forcefully depress thebrakes, you may hear a clicking sound inthe brake pedal. This is normal and indi-
cates that the brake assist system is acti-vated properly.
NOTE:• If the ESP® system is activated, you may
hear a clunking noise and/or feel pulsat-ing in the brake pedal. This is normaland indicates that the brake fluid pres-sure is being controlled properly.
• You may hear an operation sound whenyou start the engine or after the vehiclebegins to move. This means that theabove systems are in the self-checkmode. This sound does not indicate amalfunction.

When the ignition switch is turned “ON” orpushed to “ON” mode, this light comes onbriefly so you can check that the light isworking.
WARNING
• The ESP® may not work properly iftires or wheels other than thosespecified in the owner’s manual areused. When replacing tires orwheels, use only the size and typespecified in this owner’s manual.
• The ESP® may not work properly iftires are not inflated to the recom-mended tire pressure.
• The ESP® may not work properly iftires are fitted with tire chains.
• The ESP® may not work properly ifthe tires are excessively worn.Replace tires when the tread wearindicators in the grooves appear onthe tread surface.
• The ESP® is not a substitute forwinter tires or tire chains on asnow-covered road.
WARNING
• The ESP® may not work properly ifengine related parts such as themuffler are not equivalent to stan-dard equipment or are extremelydeteriorated.
• Do not modify the vehicle’s sus-pension since the ESP® may notwork properly.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
72RH0-74E
The hill hold control system activates for amaximum of about 2 seconds if your foot ismoved from the brake pedal when the fol-lowing conditions are all met.
1) The gearshift lever is in a forward gearor reverse gear.
2) The parking brake is released.3) The vehicle is on an upward incline.
On models equipped with the ENG A-STOP system, the hill hold control systemis activated when the engine is restartedafter being stopped automatically, even ifthe previous conditions are not met.
NOTE:When the hill hold control system is acti-vated, the following conditions may befound, but this is not a malfunction.• You may hear a sound from the engine
room.• As brake pedal becomes heavy, it may
be difficult for you to depress it.
WARNING
• Do not rely excessively on the hillhold control system. The hill holdcontrol system may not prevent thevehicle from rolling downward on ahill under all load or road condi-tions. Always be prepared todepress the brake pedal to preventthe vehicle from rolling downward.Failure to pay attention anddepress the brake pedal to hold thevehicle on a hill when necessary,may result in loss of control or anaccident.
• The hill hold control system is notdesigned to stop the vehicle on ahill.
• After you release your foot from thebrake pedal, accelerate the vehicleto move up immediately. If yourelease your foot from the brakepedal over 2 seconds, the hill holdcontrol system will be canceled. Ifso, the vehicle may roll downward,which can result in an accidentdepending on the degree of slope.And, the engine may stall and thepower assist for the steering andbrakes will not work so steeringand braking will be much harderthan usual which can result in anaccident or vehicle damage.

Running-in Catalytic Converter
80G106
The purpose of the catalytic converter is tominimize the amount of harmful pollutantsin your vehicle’s exhaust. Use of leadedfuel in vehicles equipped with catalyticconverters is prohibited, because leaddeactivates the pollutant-reducing compo-nents of the catalyst system.
The converter is designed to last the life ofthe vehicle under normal usage and whenunleaded fuel is used. No special mainte-nance is required on the converter. How-ever, it is very important to keep the engineproperly tuned. Engine misfiring, which canresult from an improperly tuned engine,may cause overheating of the catalyticconverter. This may result in permanentheat damage to the catalytic converter andother vehicle components.
WARNING
• Fasten Your Seat Belts at All Times.Even though airbags are equippedat the front seating positions, thedriver and all passengers shouldbe properly restrained at all times,using the seat belts provided. Referto “Seat Belts and Child RestraintSystems” section for instructionson proper use of the seat belts.
• Never drive while under the influ-ence of alcohol or other drugs.Alcohol and drugs can seriouslyimpair your ability to drive safely,greatly increasing the risk of injuryto yourself and others. You shouldalso avoid driving when you aretired, sick, irritated, or understress.
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
The future performance and reliabil-ity of the engine depends on the careand restraint exercised during itsearly life. It is especially important toobserve the following precautionsduring the first 960 km of vehicleoperation.• After starting, do not race the
engine. Warm it up gradually.• Avoid prolonged vehicle operation
at a constant speed. Moving partswill break in better if you vary yourspeed.
• Start off from a stop slowly. Avoidfull throttle starts.
• Avoid hard braking, especiallyduring the first 320 km of driving.
• Do not drive slowly with the trans-mission in a high gear.
• Drive the vehicle at moderateengine speeds.

Improving Fuel EconomyNOTE:Fuel economy (mileage) of the vehicle mayvary due to several factors i.e., drivinghabits - gear change pattern, usage of A.C,Air pressure in the tyres, wind speed, traf-fic conditions, fuel quality- non adulteratedstandard fuel, maintenance of vehicle,road conditions, braking etc.
The following instructions will help youimprove fuel economy.
Avoid excessive idlingIf you park your vehicle for more than oneminute, stop the engine and start it againlater. When warming up a cold engine, donot allow the engine to idle or apply fullthrottle until the engine has reached oper-ating temperature. Allow the engine towarm up by driving.
Avoid sudden accelerationSudden acceleration starting from rest orwhile driving will consume fuel unneces-sarily and shorten engine life. Start offslowly.
Avoid unnecessary stopsAvoid unnecessary deceleration and stop-ping. Try to maintain a moderate, steadyspeed whenever possible. Slowing downand then accelerating again uses morefuel.
Keep a steady cruising speedDrive at a constant speed that road andtraffic conditions will permit.
NOTICE
To minimize the possibility of cata-lytic converter or other vehicle dam-age:• Maintain the engine in the proper
operating condition.• In the event of an engine malfunc-
tion, particularly one involvingengine misfiring or other apparentloss of performance, have the vehi-cle serviced promptly.
• Do not turn off the engine or inter-rupt the ignition when the transmis-sion is in gear and the vehicle is inmotion.
• Do not try to start the engine bypushing or towing the vehicle, orcoasting down a hill.
• Do not idle the engine with anyspark plug wires disconnected orremoved, such as during diagnos-tic testing.
• Do not idle the vehicle for pro-longed periods if idling seemsrough or there are other malfunc-tions.
• Do not allow the fuel tank to getnear the empty level.
• Avoid driving your vehicle atexcessively high engine speed inor around the red zone of thetachometer.
WARNING
Be careful where you park and drive;the catalytic converter and otherexhaust components can get veryhot. As with any vehicle, do not parkor operate this vehicle in areas wherecombustible materials such as drygrass or leaves can come in contactwith a hot exhaust system.

Keep the air cleaner clean
60A183S
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, therewill be greater intake resistance, resultingin decreased power output and increasedfuel consumption.
Keep weight to a minimumThe heavier the load is, the more fuel thevehicle consumes. Unload any unneces-sary luggage or cargo.
Keep tire pressures correctUnder-inflation of the tires can waste fueldue to increased rolling resistance of thetires. Keep your tires inflated to the correctpressure shown in the label on driver’sdoor lock pillar.
Highway DrivingWhen driving at highway speeds, payattention to the following:• Stopping distance progressively
increases with vehicle speed. Apply thebrakes far enough ahead of the stoppingpoint to allow for the extra stopping dis-tance.
• On rainy days, hydroplaning can occur.Hydroplaning is the loss of direct contactbetween the road surface and the vehi-cle’s tires due to a water film formingbetween them. Steering or braking thevehicle during hydroplaning can be verydifficult, and loss of control can occur.Keep speed down when the road sur-face is wet.
• At high speeds, the vehicle may beaffected by side winds. Therefore,reduce speed and be prepared for unex-pected buffeting, which can occur at theexits of tunnels, when passing by a cutof a hill, or when being overtaken bylarge vehicles, etc.
Driving on Hills
72RM04008
• When climbing steep hills, the vehiclemay begin to slow down and show a lackof power. If this happens, you shouldshift to a lower gear so that the enginewill again be operating in its higherpower range. Shift rapidly to prevent thevehicle from losing momentum.
• When driving down a hill, the engineshould be used for braking by shifting tothe next lower gear.

While moving uphill/gradient from astand still condition - For manual tran-saxle• Apply the parking brake firmly so that the
vehicle does not roll backwards. • Depress the Clutch pedal and Shift the
gearshift lever to 1st Select position. • Do not slip the clutch.• When ready to start, press accelerator
pedal and slowly release the clutchpedal simultaneously. When the vehiclestarts to move, gradually release theparking brake.
Driving on Slippery Roads
60G089S
On wet roads, you should drive at a lowerspeed than you do on dry roads due topossible slippage of tires during braking.When driving on icy, snow-covered, ormuddy roads, reduce your speed andavoid sudden acceleration, abrupt braking,or sharp steering movements.
Snow ChainsSnow chains should only be used if theyare needed to increase traction or arerequired by law. Make sure that the chainsyou use are the correct size for your vehi-cle’s tires. Also make sure that there isenough clearance between the fendersand the chains as installed on the tires.
Install the chains on the front tires tightly,according to the chain manufacturer’sinstructions. Retighten the chains afterdriving about 1.0 km if necessary. With thechains installed, drive slowly.
WARNING
Do not hold the brake pedal down toolong or too often while going down asteep or long hill. This could causethe brakes to overheat, resulting inreduced braking efficiency. Failure totake this precaution could result inloss of vehicle control.
NOTICE
When descending a downhill, Neverturn the ignition key to “LOCK” posi-tion or press the engine switch tochange the ignition mode to “LOCK”(OFF). Emission control system andautomatic transmission (if equipped)damage may result.
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
• If you hear the chains hittingagainst the vehicle body while driv-ing, stop and tighten them.
• If your vehicle is equipped with fullwheel caps, remove the wheel capsbefore installing the chains or thewheel caps can be damaged by thechain bands.

Stuck VehicleIf your vehicle gets stuck in snow, mud, orsand, follow the directions below:
1) Shift the transmission back and forthbetween a forward range (or first gearfor manual transmission) and reverse.This will create a rocking motion whichmay give you enough momentum tofree the vehicle. Press gently on theaccelerator to keep wheel spinning to aminimum wheel rpm. Remove your footfrom the accelerator while shifting. Do not race the engine. Excessivewheel spin will cause the tires to digdeeper, making it more difficult to freethe vehicle.
NOTE:If your vehicle is equipped with the ESP®,you may have to turn the ESP® system offin order to allow spinning the wheels.
2) If your vehicle remains stuck after a fewminutes of rocking, we recommend youto consult a Maruti Suzuki authorisedworkshop or a roadside assistance ser-vice. If a towing service is not availablein an emergency, your vehicle may betemporarily towed by other vehicle witha towing cable or chain secured to thetowing eye either on the front of thevehicle or on the rear of the vehicle.Refer to “Frame Hooks” in “OTHERCONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT” sec-tion.
54G638S
WARNING
Do not allow anyone to stand nearthe vehicle when you are rocking it,and do not spin the wheels fasterthan an indicated 40 km/h on thespeedometer. Personal injury and/ orvehicle damage may result from spin-ning the wheels too fast.
NOTICE
Do not continue rocking the vehiclefor more than a few minutes. Pro-longed rocking can cause engineoverheating or transmission damage.
EXAMPLE
WARNING
In addition to following the drivingtips in this section, it is important toobserve the following precautions.• Make sure your tires are in good
condition and always maintain thespecified tire pressure. Refer to“Tires” in the “INSPECTION ANDMAINTENANCE” section fordetails.
• Do not use tires other than thosespecified by MARUTI SUZUKI.Never use different sizes or typesof tires on the front and rearwheels. For information regardingthe specified tires, refer to the tireinformation label located on thedriver’s door lock pillar.
• Never use oversized tires or spe-cial shock absorbers and springsto raise (jack up) your vehicle. Thiswill change the handling character-istics. Oversized tires may also rubagainst the fender over bumps,causing vehicle damage or tire fail-ure.

hot end, • turn on “A/C” switch, and • adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows.
Models with ENG A-STOP System(if equipped)• If the air conditioning performance can
no longer perform at a sufficient leveldue to automatically stopping theengine, press the “ENG A-STOP OFF”switch to deactivate the ENG A-STOPsystem. (The engine will automaticallyrestart and the air conditioning perfor-mance will be restored.)
• If the windshield and/or the driver’s side/passenger side door windows arefogged during automatically stopping theengine, stop the ENG A-STOP systemand restart the engine. Then, turn the airflow selector (4) to change the air flow tothe “Heat & defrost” or “Defrost” positionto defog the windows.
MaintenanceIf you do not use the air conditioner for along period, such as during winter, it maynot give the best performance when youstart using it again. To help maintain opti-mum performance and durability of your airconditioner, it needs to be run periodically.Operate the air conditioner at least once amonth for one minute with the engineidling. This circulates the refrigerant and oiland helps protect the internal components.
If your air conditioner is equipped with airfilters, clean or replace them as specifiedin “Maintenance schedule” in “INSPEC-TION AND MAINTENANCE” section.
NOTE:Your vehicle uses the air conditioningrefrigerant HFC-134a, commonly called“R-134a”. R-134a replaced R-12 around1993 for automotive applications. Otherrefrigerants are available, including recy-cled R-12, but only R-134a should be usedin your vehicle.

MaintenanceIf you do not use the air conditioner for along period, such as during winter, it maynot give the best performance when youstart using it again. To help maintain opti-mum performance and durability of your airconditioner, it needs to be run periodically.Operate the air conditioner at least once amonth for one minute with the engineidling. This circulates the refrigerant and oiland helps protect the internal components.
If your air conditioner is equipped with airfilters, clean or replace them as specifiedin “Maintenance schedule” in “INSPEC-TION AND MAINTENANCE” section. Havethis job done by a Maruti Suzuki autho-rised workshop as the lower glove boxmust be lowered for this job.
NOTE:Your vehicle uses the air conditioningrefrigerant HFC-134a, commonly called R-134a. R-134a replaced R-12 around 1993for automotive applications. Other refriger-ants are available, including recycled R-12,but only R-134a should be used in yourvehicle.(11)

NOTICE
Using the wrong refrigerant maydamage your air conditioning sys-tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix orreplace the R-134a with other refrig-erants.

Engine Coolant
Selection of CoolantTo maintain optimum performance anddurability of your engine, use MARUTISUZUKI genuine coolant or equivalent.
This type of coolant is the best for coolingsystem 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.
Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-age your cooling system, Maruti Suzukiauthorised workshop can help you selectthe proper coolant.
NOTICE
To prevent oil leakage, make surethat the oil filter is tight, but do notover-tighten it.
NOTICE
• When replacing the oil filter, it isrecommended that you use aMARUTI SUZUKI genuine replace-ment filter. If you use an aftermar-ket filter, make sure it is ofequivalent quality and follow themanufacturer’s instructions.
• Oil leakage from the periphery ofthe oil filter or drain plug indicateincorrect installation or gasketdamage. If you find any leakage orare not sure that the filter has beenproperly tightened, have the vehi-cle inspected by a Maruti Suzukiauthorised workshop.

3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks anddamage. Any tires with cracks or otherdamage should be replaced. If any tiresshow abnormal wear, have theminspected by a Maruti Suzuki autho-rised workshop.
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 checkedwhen the tires are cold or you mayget inaccurate readings.
• Check the inflation pressure fromtime to time while inflating the tiregradually, until the specified pres-sure is obtained.
• Never underinflate or over-inflatethe tires. Underinflation can cause unusualhandling characteristics or cancause the rim to slip on the tirebead, resulting in an accident ordamage to the tire or rim. Overinflation can cause the tire toburst, resulting in personal injury.Overinflation can also causeunusual handling characteristicswhich may result in an accident.

CAUTION
Hitting curbs and running over rockscan damage tires and affect wheelalignment. Have tires and wheelalignment checked periodically by aMaruti Suzuki authorised workshop.
WARNING
• Your MARUTI SUZUKI vehicle isequipped with tires which are allthe same type and size. This isimportant to ensure proper steeringand handling of the vehicle. Nevermix tires of different size or type onthe four wheels of your vehicle. Thesize and type of tires used shouldbe only those approved by MARUTISUZUKI as standard or optionalequipment for your vehicle.
• Replacing the wheels and tiresequipped on your vehicle with cer-tain combinations of aftermarketwheels and tires can significantlychange the steering and handlingcharacteristics of your vehicle.
• Therefore, use only those wheeland tire combinations approved byMARUTI SUZUKI as standard oroptional equipment for your vehi-cle.

To avoid uneven wear of your tires and toprolong their life, rotate the tires as illus-trated. Tires should be rotated every 10000km. After rotation, adjust front and rear tirepressures to the specification listed in yourvehicle’s Tire Information Label.
Wheel BalancingIf the vehicle vibrates abnormally onsmooth road, have the wheel balanced atMaruti Suzuki authorised workshop.
Wheel AlignmentIn case of abnormal tire wear or pullingtowards one side, have the wheel alignedat Maruti Suzuki authorised workshop.
Tubeless Tires (If equipped)The vehicle is equipped with TubelessTires. In tubeless tire, a thin layer of butylrubber is used for lining the inside of thetubeless tire. This layer is to prevent airloss and fulfilling the purpose of tube. Theair pressure is maintained by the sealingbetween tire bead and wheel rim. Tubelesstires are having advantage of slow air lossand preventing sudden deflation while driv-ing.
Care and maintenance tips for tubelesstires1) Always maintain recommended infla-
tion pressure. Driving continuously atlow inflation pressure can lead to tiredamage.
2) In case any leakage is found, check forany nail penetration/valve core damageor rim bent. Damaged wheel must notbe used.
3) In case tire has run at low pressure, itmust be inspected for any defect.
4) Whenever new tire is fitted, replace thevalve.
5) If continuous high speed driving isrequired, increase pressure of tires by 5psi over recommended inflation pres-sure.
6) Never run the tire beyond TWI (Treadwear indicator). The tire is recom-mended to be replaced when theremaining tread has worn to this point.The indicators are spaced across thetread around the tire marked by a trian-gular symbol (TWI).
7) Always prefer tubeless tire mountingmachine. In case of manual mountingtire/ wheel rim damage may occur.
8) In case of any problem, please get intouch with a Maruti Suzuki authorisedworkshop.

For maintenance-free battery (cap-lesstype), you need not add water. For tradi-tional type battery, which has water fillercaps, the level of the battery fluid must bekept between the “MAX” and the “MIN”level lines at all times. You should periodi-cally check the battery, battery terminals,and battery hold-down bracket for corro-sion. Remove corrosion using a stiff brushand ammonia mixed with water, or bakingsoda mixed with water. After removing cor-rosion, rinse with clean water.
If your vehicle is not going to be driven fora month or longer, disconnect the cablefrom the negative terminal of the battery tohelp prevent discharge.
NOTE:The battery liquid is consumed when thebattery is used. If the level is found to beless than the center of upper level “MAX”and lower level “MIN”, add distilled watertill it reaches the upper level line “MAX”.
WARNING
• Batteries produce flammablehydrogen gas. Keep flames andsparks away from the lead-acid bat-tery or an explosion may occur.Never smoke when working in thevicinity of the lead-acid battery.
• When checking or servicing thelead-acid battery, disconnect thenegative cable. Be careful not tocause a short circuit by allowingmetal objects to contact the lead-acid battery posts and the vehicleat the same time.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam-age to your vehicle or lead-acidbattery, follow the jump startinginstructions in “EMERGENCY SER-VICE” section of this manual if it isnecessary to jump-start your vehi-cle.
• Diluted sulfuric acid spilled fromlead-acid battery can cause blind-ness or severe burns. Use propereye protection and gloves. Flusheyes or body with ample water andget medical care immediately if suf-fered. Keep batteries out of reachof children.
EXAMPLE

Corrosion PreventionIt is important to take good care of yourvehicle to protect it from corrosion. Listedbelow are instructions for how to maintainyour vehicle to prevent corrosion. Pleaseread and follow these instructions carefully.
Important Information about Corro-sion
Common causes of corrosion1) Accumulation of road salt, dirt, mois-
ture, or chemicals in hard-to-reachareas of the vehicle underbody orframe.
2) Chipping, scratches and any damage totreated or painted metal surfacesresulting from minor accidents or abra-sion by stones and gravel.
3) Any or all of the below mentionedpoints:
– continuous exposure to sunlight.– hard water & Sea water coming in
contact with vehicle.– foot rubbing (skirting).
Environmental conditions which accel-erate corrosion1) Road salt, dust control chemicals, sea
breeze or industrial pollution will allaccelerate the corrosion of metal.
2) High humidity will increase the rate ofcorrosion particularly when the tem-perature range is just above the freez-ing point.
3) Moisture in certain areas of a vehiclefor an extended period of time may pro-
mote corrosion even though other bodysections may be completely dry.
4) High temperatures will cause an accel-erated rate of corrosion to parts of thevehicle which are not well-ventilated topermit quick drying.
This information illustrates the necessity ofkeeping your vehicle (particularly theunderbody) as clean and dry as possible. Itis equally important to repair any damageto the paint or protective coatings as soonas possible.
How to Help Prevent Corrosion
Wash your vehicle frequentlyThe best way to preserve the finish on yourvehicle and to help avoid corrosion is tokeep it clean with frequent washing.Wash your vehicle at least once during thewinter and once immediately after the win-ter. Keep your vehicle, particularly theunderside, as clean and dry as possible.If you frequently drive on salted roads,your vehicle should be washed at leastonce a month during the winter. If you livenear the ocean, your vehicle should bewashed at least once a month throughoutthe year.
For washing instructions, refer to “VehicleCleaning” section.
Remove foreign material depositsForeign material such as salts, chemicals,road oil or tar, tree sap, bird droppings andindustrial fall-out may damage the finish of
your vehicle if it is left on painted surfaces.Remove these types of deposits as quicklyas possible. If these deposits are difficult towash off, an additional cleaner may berequired. Be sure that any cleaner you useis not harmful to painted surfaces and isspecifically intended for your purposes.Follow the manufacturer’s directions whenusing these special cleaners.
Repair finish damageCarefully examine your vehicle for damageto the painted surfaces. Should you findany chips or scratches in the paint, touchthem up immediately to prevent corrosionfrom starting. If the chips or scratches havegone through to the bare metal, have aqualified body shop make the repair.
Keep passenger and luggage compart-ments cleanMoisture, dirt or mud can accumulateunder the floor mats and may cause corro-sion. Occasionally, check under thesemats to ensure that this area is clean anddry. More frequent checks are necessary ifthe vehicle is used for off-road driving or inwet weather.Certain cargos such as chemicals, fertiliz-ers, cleaners, salts, etc. are extremely cor-rosive by nature. These products shouldbe transported in sealed containers. If theyare spilled or leaked, clean and dry thearea immediately.
