FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Fuel Recommendation ........................................................ 1-1
1-1
FUEL RECOMMENDATION
53MH0-74E
Fuel Recommendation
You must use unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher.
Gasoline/Ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in some areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% ethanol. Make sure this gasoline-ethanol blend
has octane ratings no lower than those
recommended for gasoline.
Gasoline/Methanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and methanol
(wood alcohol) are also commercially available in some areas. DO NOT USE fuels
containing more than 5% methanol under
any circumstances. Fuel system damage
or vehicle performance problems resulting
from the use of such fuels are not the
responsibility of MARUTI SUZUKI and may
not be covered under the New Vehicle
Warranty. Fuels containing 5% or less
methanol may be suitable for use in your
vehicle if they contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
are using a gasoline/alcohol blend, you
should switch back to unleaded gasoline
containing no alcohol.
NOTICE
The fuel tank has an air space to
allow for fuel expansion in hot
weather. If you continue to add fuel
after the filler nozzle has automatically shut off or an initial blowback
occurs, the air chamber will become
full. Exposure to heat when fully
fuelled in this manner will result in
leakage due to fuel expansion. To
prevent such fuel leakage, stop filling
after the filler nozzle has automatically shut off, or when using an alternative non-automatic system, initial
vent blowback occurs.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alcohol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Warranty.

Keys
51KM024
Your vehicle comes with a pair of keys.
The key(s) may or may not be equipped
with a transmitter depending on model
variant. Keep the spare key in a safe place.
One key can open all of the locks on the
vehicle.
The key identification number is stamped
on a metal tag provided with the keys or on
the keys. Keep the tag (if equipped) in a
safe place. If you lose your keys, you will
need this number to have new keys made.
Write the number below for your future reference.
Immobilizer System
This system is designed to help prevent
vehicle theft by electronically disabling the
engine starting system.
The engine can be started only with your
vehicle’s original immobilizer ignition key
which has an electronic identification code
programmed into it. The key communicates the identification code to the vehicle
when the key is turned to the “ON” position. If you need to make spare keys, see
your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer. The vehicle
must be programmed with the correct identification code for the spare keys. A key
made by an ordinary locksmith will not
work.
54G003
If the immobilizer system light (1) blinks
when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, there may be something wrong with
your key or with the immobilizer system.
Ask your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer to
inspect the system.
NOTE:
• If you lose your immobilizer ignition key,
see your MARUTI SUZUKI dealer as
soon as possible to have the lost one
deactivated, then have the new key
made by them.
• If you own other vehicles with immobilizer keys, keep those keys away from
the ignition switch when using your
MARUTI SUZUKI, or the engine may not
be started because they may interfere
with your MARUTI SUZUKI’s immobilizer system.
• If you attach any metal objects to the
immobilizer key, it may not start the
engine.
KEY NUMBER:
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
The immobilizer key is a sensitive
electronic instrument. To avoid damaging the immobilizer key:
• Do not expose it to impacts, moisture or high temperature such as

WARNING
• To avoid injuring an occupant by
window entrapment, be sure no
part of the occupant’s body such as
hands or head is in the path of the
electric windows when closing
them.
• Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the vehicle even if
only for a short time. Also do not
leave children alone in a parked
vehicle. Unattended children could
use the electric window switches
and get trapped by the window.
WARNING
Be careful when judging the size or
distance of a vehicle or other object
seen in the side convex mirror. Be
aware that objects look smaller and
appear farther away than when seen
in a flat mirror.
