Gear Oil Level Check

(1) Oil filler and level plug
To check the gear oil level, use the follow-
ing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface with
the parking brake applied. Then, stop
the engine.
2) Remove the oil filler and level plug (1).
3) If gear oil flows from the plug hole, the
oil level is correct. Reinstall the plug. If
gear oil does not flow from the plug
hole, add oil through the filler plug hole
until oil flows a little from the plug hole.
4) If the oil level is low, add gear oil
through the oil filler and level plug hole
(1) until the oil level reaches the bottom
of the filler hole, then reinstall the plug.

Clutch Pedal
Fluid Control Clutch
73R0115
Check the clutch pedal for smooth opera-
tion and clutch fluid level from time to time.
If clutch dragging is felt with the pedal fully
depressed, have the clutch inspected by
your Maruti Suzuki authorised workshop. If
the clutch fluid level is near the “MIN” line,
fill it up to the “MAX” line with Maruti Genu-
ine Brake Fluid (MGBF) or DOT 3.
We highly recommend to use “Maruti Gen-
uine Brake Fluid” (MGBF).
