Clutch Pedal

Clutch pedal play “d”:
MAX 10 mm (0.4 in.)
Measure the clutch pedal play by moving
the clutch pedal with your hand and mea-
suring the distance it moves until you feel
slight resistance. The play in the clutch
pedal should be less than the specified
values. If the play is more than the above,
or clutch dragging is felt with the pedal fully
depressed, have the clutch inspected by
an authorized SUZUKI dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Clutch Fluid

Check the clutch pedal for smooth opera-
tion and clutch fluid level from time to time.
If clutch dragging is felt with the pedal fully
depressed, have the clutch inspected by
an authorized SUZUKI dealer or a qualified
workshop. If the clutch fluid level is near
“MIN” line, fill it up to “MAX” line with DOT3
or SAE J1703 brake fluid.
CAUTION
After driving the vehicle, the gear oil
temperature may be high enough to
burn you. Wait until the oil filler and
level plug are cool enough to touch
with your bare hands before inspect-
ing gear oil level.
NOTICE
Be sure to use new plug with new gas-
ket to avoid looseness of the plug and
oil leakage.

reservoir. If your clutch fluid level is
increased or near the “MIN” line, there
is a possibility of clutch or brake fluid
leakage or abnormal wear of clutch.

ately by an authorized SUZUKI dealer
or a qualified workshop.
