INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Wheel Balancing
If the vehicle vibrates abnormally on
smooth road, have the wheel balanced at
authorised Maruti Suzuki Workshop.
Wheel Alignment
In case of abnormal tyre wear or pulling
towards one side, have the wheel aligned
at authorised Maruti Suzuki Workshop.
Tubeless Tyres (If equipped)
The vehicle is equipped with Tubeless
Tyres. In tubeless tyre, a thin layer of butyl
rubber is used for lining the inside of the
tubeless tyre. This layer is to prevent air
loss and fulfilling the purpose of tube. The
air pressure is maintained by the sealing
between tyre bead and wheel rim. Tube-
less tyres are having advantage of slow air
loss and preventing sudden deflation while
driving.

Care and maintenance tips for tubeless
tyres
1) Always maintain recommended infla-
tion pressure. Driving continuously at
low inflation pressure can lead to tyre
damage.
2) In case any leakage is found, check for
any nail penetration/valve core damage
or rim bent. Damaged wheel must not
be used.
3) In case tyre has run at low pressure, it
must be inspected for any defect.
4) Whenever new tyre is fitted, replace the
valve.
5) If continuous high speed driving is
required, increase tyres pressure by 5
psi over recommended inflation pres-
sure.
6) Never run the tyre beyond TWI (Tread
wear indicator). The tyre is recommen-
ded to be replaced when the remaining
tread has worn to this point. The indica-
tors are spaced across the tread
around the tyre marked by a triangular
symbol (TWI).
7) Always prefer tubeless tyre mounting
machine. In case of manual mounting-
tyre/wheel rim damage may occur.
8) In case of any problem, please get in
touch with authorised Maruti Suzuki
workshop.
