Engine Coolant
Selection of Coolant
To maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use Maruti Genu-
ine Coolant or equivalent.
This type of coolant is best for your cooling
system as it:
• Helps maintain proper engine tempera-
ture.
• Gives proper protection against freezing
and boiling.
• Gives proper protection against corro-
sion and rust.
Failure to use the proper coolant can dam-
age your cooling system. Your authorized
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer can help you
select the proper coolant.

NOTICE
To prevent oil leakage, make sure
that the oil filter is tight, but do not
over-tighten it.
NOTICE
• When replacing the oil filter, it is rec-
ommended that you use a Maruti
genuine replacement filter. If you
use an aftermarket filter, make sure
it is of equivalent quality and follow
the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Oil leaks from around the oil filter or
drain plug indicate incorrect instal-
lation or gasket damage. If you find
any leaks or are not sure that the fil-
ter has been properly tightened,
have the vehicle inspected by your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
