(1) Tread wear indicator
(2) Indicator location mark
2) Check that the depth of the tread
groove is more than 1.6 mm (0.06 in.).
To help you check this, the tyres have
molded-in tread wear indicators in the
grooves. When the indicators appear
on the tread surface, the remaining
depth of the tread is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.)
or less and the tyre should be
replaced.
3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks and
damage. Any tyres with cracks or other
damage should be replaced. If any
tyres show abnormal wear, have them
inspected by your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer.
Hitting curbs and running over rocks
can damage tyres and affect wheel
alignment. Be sure to have tyres and
wheel alignment checked periodi-
cally by your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer.
4) Check for loose wheel nuts.
5) Check that there are no nails, stones
or other objects sticking into the tyres.
• Your MARUTI SUZUKI is equipped
with tyres which are all the same
type and size. This is important to
ensure proper steering and hand-
ling of the vehicle. Never mix tyres
of different size or type on the four
wheels of your vehicle. The size
and type of tyres used should be
only those approved by MARUTI
SUZUKI as standard or optional
equipment for your vehicle.
• Replacing the wheels and tyres
equipped on your vehicle with cer-
tain combinations of aftermarket
wheels and tyres can significantly
change the steering and handling
characteristics of your vehicle.
• Therefore, use only those wheel
and tyre combinations approved
by MARUTI SUZUKI as standard or
optional equipment for your
vehicle.
CAUTION
Replacing the original tyres with tyres
of a different size may result in false
speedometer or odometer readings.
Check with your MARUTI SUZUKI
dealer before purchasing replace-
ment tyres that differ in size from the
original tyres.
Tyre Rotation
54G114
To avoid uneven wear of your tyres and to
prolong their life, rotate the tyres as illus-
trated. Tyres should be rotated every 5,000
km. After rotation, adjust front and rear tyre
pressures to the specification listed on your
vehicle’s Tyre Information Label.
