NOTE:
Do not check the fluid level if you have just
driven the vehicle for a long time at high
speed, if you have driven in city traffic in
hot weather, or if the vehicle has been pull-
ing a trailer. Wait until the fluid cools down
(about 30 minutes), or the fluid level indica-
tion will not be correct.

3) Park your vehicle on level ground.
4) Apply the parking brake and then start
the engine in “P” (Park). Let it idle for
two minutes and keep it running during
the fluid level check.
5) With your foot on the brake pedal,
move the gearshift lever through each
range, pausing for about three seconds
in each range. Then move it back to the
“P” (Park) position.

6) The handle of the CVT fluid dipstick is
colored red for easy identification.
Remove the dipstick, clean it and push
it back in until the cap seats. Then pull
out the dipstick.
7) Check both sides of the dipstick, and
read the lowest level. The fluid level
should be between the two marks in the
hot range on the dipstick.

is recommended that you trust this job to
your authorized SUZUKI dealer.
