Maintenance Schedule under Normal Driving Conditions

NOTE:
  • This interval should be judged by odometer reading or months, whichever comes first.
  • The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board has determined that the failure to perform recommended maintenance items, with ** (asterisks), will not nullify the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to the completion of the vehicle's useful life. SUZUKI, however, urges that all recommended maintenance services be performed at the indicated intervals and the maintenance recorded.
  • The table includes service as scheduled up to 150, 000 miles (250, 000 km) mileage. Beyond 150, 000 miles (250, 000 km), perform the same services at the same intervals shown in the chart.

0 - 75, 000 miles (125, 000 km, 75 month)
