Selection of Coolant
To maintain optimum performance and
durability of your engine, use MARUTI
Genuine Coolant or equivalent.
This type of coolant is best for your cooling
system as it:
• Helps maintain proper engine tempera-
ture.
• Gives proper protection against freezing
and boiling.
• Gives proper protection against
corrosion and rust.
Failure to use the proper coolant can
damage your cooling system. Your
authorized MARUTI SUZUKI dealer can
help you select the proper coolant.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging your cooling
system:
• Always use a high quality ethylene
glycol non-silicate based coolant
diluted with distilled water at the
correct mixture concentration.
• Make sure that the proper mix is
50/ 50 coolant to distilled water and
in no case higher than 70/30.
Concentrations greater than 70/30
coolant to distilled water will cause
overheating conditions.

CAUTION
(Continued)
• Neither use 100% coolant nor
100% plain water.
• Do not add extra inhibitors or
additives. They may not be
compatible with your cooling
system.
• Do not mix different types of base
coolants. Doing so may result in
accelerated seal wear and/or the
possibility of severe overheating
and extensive engine damage.
Coolant Level Check
Check the coolant level at the reservoir
tank, not at the radiator. With the engine
cool, the coolant level should be between
the “FULL” and “LOW” marks.
Adding Coolant
(For Petrol Engine)
If the coolant level is below the “LOW”
mark, more coolant should be added.
Remove the reservoir tank cap and add
coolant until the reservoir tank level
reaches the “FULL” mark. Never fill the
reservoir tank above the “FULL” mark.
(For Diesel Engine)
It is hazardous to remove the
reservoir tank cap (degassing tank
cap) for Diesel engine when the water
temperature is high, because
scalding fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure. Wait until
the coolant temperature has lowered
before removing the cap.
If the coolant level is below the “LOW” mark,
more coolant should be added. When the
engine is cool, remove the degassing tank
cap by turning it anticlockwise slowly to
release any pressure. And add coolant until
the degassing tank level reaches the “FULL”
mark. Never fill the degassing tank above
the “FULL” mark.
