Maintenance Schedule under Normal Driving Conditions (Market Code P71)

Precautions: General safety (00)

NOTE:
•For discrimination of market code, refer to Identification Plate.
•The intervals should be determined based on odometer readings or months, whichever comes first.
•The following table shows the service schedule up to 250,000 km (150,000 miles). Beyond 250,000 km (150,000 miles), perform the same maintenance services at the same intervals shown in the table.
•The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board has determined that the failure to perform recommended maintenance items, indicated by *(asterisk), 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 operation recorded.
