INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
76MH1-74E
NOTE:
With disc brakes, the fluid level can be
expected to gradually fall as the brake
pads wear.
Brake Pedal
Check if the brake pedal stops at the regu-
lar height without “spongy” feeling when
you depress it. If not, have the brake sys-
tem inspected by your Maruti Suzuki
authorised workshop. If you doubt the
brake pedal for the regular height, check it
as follows:

Pedal to wall minimum distance (A)
145 mm (5.7 in.)
With the engine running, measure the dis-
tance between the brake pedal and floor
wall when the pedal is depressed with
approximately 30 kg (66 lbs) of force. The
minimum distance required is as specified.
Since your vehicle’s brake system is self-
adjusting, there is no need for pedal
adjustment. If the pedal to floor wall dis-
tance as measured above is less than the
minimum distance required, have your
vehicle inspected by your Maruti Suzuki
authorised workshop.
NOTE:
When measuring the distance between the
brake pedal and floor wall, be sure not to
include the floor mat or rubber on the floor
wall in your measurement.

Ratchet tooth specification (B)
4th – 7th
Parking brake
Check the parking brake for proper adjust-
ment by counting the number of clicks
made by the ratchet teeth as you slowly
pull up on the parking brake lever to the
point of full engagement. The parking
brake lever should stop between the speci-
fied ratchet teeth and the rear wheels
should be securely locked. If the parking
brake is not properly adjusted or the
brakes drag after the lever has been fully
released, have the parking brake
inspected and/or adjusted by your Maruti
Suzuki authorised workshop.
