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
WARNING
Swallowing engine coolant can cause
severe injury or death. Inhaling cool-
ant mist or vapors or getting coolant
in your eyes could result in severe
injury.
• Do not drink antifreeze or coolant
solution. If swallowed, do not
induce vomiting. Immediately con-
tact a poison control center or a
physician.
• Avoid inhaling coolant mist or hot
vapors. If inhaled, remove to a
fresh air area.
• If coolant gets in the eyes, flush
with water and seek medical atten-
tion.
• Wash thoroughly after handling
coolant.
• Keep engine coolant out of the
reach of children and pets.
NOTICE
• The mixture you use should con-
tain 50% concentration of anti-
freeze.
• If the lowest ambient temperature
in your area is expected to be –
35°C (–31°F) or below, use higher
concentrations up to 60% following
the instructions on the antifreeze
container.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
It is hazardous to remove the degas-
sing tank cap when the water tem-
perature 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 anticlock-
wise 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.
Coolant Replacement
Since special procedures are required, we
recommend you take your vehicle to your
authorised Maruti Suzuki workshop for
coolant replacement.
