OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
(For Diesel Engine Model)
Cold engine
Depress the clutch and brake pedals fully
and press the engine switch to crank the
engine. If the glow plug indicator light
comes on, the engine will start automati-
cally after the glow plug indicator light goes
off or 10 seconds past.
NOTICE
Do not crank the engine for more
than 30 seconds at a time.
If the engine doesn't start on the first
try, wait about 15 seconds before try-
ing again.
Warm engine
Crank the engine by pressing the engine
switch to change the ignition mode to
"START".
Caution when stopping the engine with
turbocharger
When stopping the engine after climbing or
high speed driving, let the engine idle for
about one minute or more (if it is not pro-
hibited) to cool down the turbocharger and
engine oil. This is to prevent the engine oil
from
over-deteriorating.
Deteriorated
engine oil will damage the bearings of the
turbocharger.

empty stop
If the engine stops and the low fuel warn-
ing light and the malfunction indicator light
come on, use the following procedure:
1) Fill the fuel tank.
2) Press the engine switch to change the
ignition mode to "ON" for 5-10 seconds
to feed fuel.
3) Perform above engine starting proce-
dure to start the engine.
If the malfunction indicator light still comes
on after the engine started, there may be
some problem with the engine. Ask your
MARUTI SUZUKI dealer to have the
engine inspected.
If the "PUSH" indicator light blinks and
the engine cannot be started
Your keyless push start system remote
controller may not be sensed as being
within the "interior workable area". Try
again after making sure that you have the
remote controller with you. If the engine
still cannot be started, the battery of the
remote controller may be discharged. You
must then use the following method to be
able to start the engine.
