Suzuki Burgman AN400, Service Manual

Page: 17 / 475

General Information: 0A-4
Engine Oil and Final Gear Oil (For USA)
Oil quality is a major contributor to your engine’s
performance and life. Always select good quality engine
oil.
SUZUKI recommends the use of SUZUKI
PERFORMANCE 4 MOTOR OIL or an equivalent
engine oil. Use of SF/SG or SH/SJ in API with MA in
JASO.
Suzuki recommends the use of SAE 10W-40 engine oil.
If SAE 10W-40 engine oil is not available, select an
alternative according to the chart.
Engine Oil and Final Gear Oil (For Other Countries)
Oil quality is a major contributor to your engine’s
performance and life. Always select good quality engine
oil. Use of SF/SG or SH/SJ in API with MA in JASO.
Suzuki recommended the use of SAE 10W-40 engine
oil. If SAE 10W-40 engine oil is not available, select an
alternative according to the chart.
Brake Fluid
Specification and classification
DOT 4
WARNING
!
Since the brake system of this motorcycle is
filled with a glycol-based brake fluid by the
manufacturer, do not use or mix different
types of fluid such as silicone-based and
petroleum-based fluid for refilling the
system, otherwise serious damage will
result.
Do not use any brake fluid taken from old or
used or unsealed containers.
Never re-use brake fluid left over from a
previous servicing, which has been stored
for a long period.
Front Fork Oil
Use fork oil G-10 or an equivalent fork oil.
Engine Coolant Recommendation
B705H10101006
Engine Coolant
Use an anti-freeze/engine coolant compatible with an
aluminum radiator, mixed with distilled water only.
Water for mixing
Use distilled water only. Water other than distilled water
can corrode and clog the aluminum radiator.
Anti-freeze/Engine coolant
The engine coolant perform as a corrosion and rust
inhibitor as well as anti-freeze. Therefore, the engine
coolant should be used at all times even though the
atmospheric temperature in your area does not go down
to freezing point.
Suzuki recommends the use of SUZUKI COOLANT anti-
freeze/engine coolant. If this is not available, use an
equivalent which is compatible with an aluminum
radiator.
Liquid amount of water/Engine coolant
Solution capacity (total)
1 700 ml (1.8/1.5 US/Imp qt)
For engine coolant mixture information, refer to “Engine
Coolant Description in Section 1F (Page1F-1)”.
CAUTION
!
Mixing of anti-freeze/engine coolant should
be limited to 60%. Mixing beyond it would
reduce its efficiency. If the anti-freeze/engine
coolant mixing ratio is below 50%, rust
inhabiting performance is greatly reduced.
Be sure to mix it above 50% even though the
atmospheric temperature does not go down
to the freezing point.
BREAK-IN Procedures
B705H10101007
During manufacture only the best possible materials are
used and all machined parts are finished to a very high
standard but it is still necessary to allow the moving parts
to “BREAK-IN” before subjecting the engine to maximum
stresses. The future performance and reliability of the
engine depends on the care and restraint exercised
during its early life. The general rules are as follows.
1) Keep to these break-in engine speed limits:
Speed limits
Initial 800 km: Below 4 000 r/min
Up to 1 600 km: Below 6 000 r/min
2) Upon reaching an odometer reading of 1 600 km (1
000 miles) you can subject the motorcycle to full
throttle operation. However, do not exceed 11 000 r/
min at any time.
