Coolant selection
Only use “Toyota Super Long Life Coo-
lant” or a similar high quality ethylene
glycol based non-silicate, non-amine,
non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with
long-life hybrid organic acid technology.
“Toyota Super Long Life Coolant” is a
mixture of 50% coolant and 50% deion-
ized water. (Minimum temperature: -
35°C [-31°F])
For more details about coolant, contact
a SUZUKI dealer or a qualified work-
shop.
■
If the coolant level drops within a
short time of replenishing
Visually check the radiators, hoses,
engine/power control unit coolant reser-
voir caps, drain cock and water pump.
If you cannot find a leak, have a
SUZUKI dealer or a qualified workshop,
test the cap and check for leaks in the
cooling system.
Check the radiator and condenser,
and clear away any foreign objects.
If either of the above parts is
extremely dirty or you are not sure
of their condition, have your vehicle
inspected by a SUZUKI dealer or a
qualified workshop.

WARNING
■
When the hybrid system is hot
Do not remove the engine/power con-
trol unit coolant reservoir caps.
The cooling system may be under
pressure and may spray hot coolant if
the cap is removed, causing serious
injuries, such as burns.
NOTICE
■ When adding coolant
Coolant is neither plain water nor
straight antifreeze. The correct mix-
ture of water and antifreeze must be
used to provide proper lubrication,
corrosion protection and cooling. Be
sure to read the antifreeze or coolant
label.
■ If you spill coolant
Be sure to wash it off with water to
prevent it from damaging parts or
paint.
