OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT

RECIRCULATED AIR (a)

When this mode is selected, outside air is

shut off and inside air is recirculated. This

mode is suitable when driving through

dusty or polluted air such as a tunnel, or

when attempting to quickly cool down or

warm up the interior.

FRESH AIR (b)

When this mode is selected, outside air is

introduced.

FRESH AIR and RECIRCULATED AIR are

selected alternately each time the air

intake selector is pushed.

NOTE:

If you select RECIRCULATED AIR for an

extended period of time, the air in the vehi-

cle can become contaminated and the win-

dows tend to get misted. Therefore, you

should select FRESH AIR whenever possi-

ble.

System operating instructions

Automatic operation

78RB05048

You can let the climate control system work

automatically. To set the system for fully-auto-

matic operation, follow the procedure below.

1) Start the engine.

2) Push "AUTO" switch (8).

3) Set the desired temperature by turning

the temperature selector (1 ).

The blower speed, air intake and air flow

are controlled automatically to maintain the

set temperature. However, the air flow is

not changed to DEFROST position auto-

matically.

NOTE:

When the recirculated air mode is selected,

the automatic operation system is deacti-

vated even if you push ''AUTO" switch (8).

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT

You can use the air conditioning switch (6)

to manually turn the air conditioner on or off

according to your preference. When you

turn the air conditioning switch off, the cli-

mate control system cannot lower the inside

temperature below outside temperature.

To turn the climate control system off, push

"OFF" switch (7).

NOTE:

If ''AUTO" in the display blinks, there is a

problem in the heating system and/or air

conditioning system. You should have the

system inspected by a SUZUKI dealer.

NOTE:

To find the temperature at which you are

most comfortable, start with the 22'C

(72'F) or 25'C (75'F) setting. (the tem-

perature vary depending on vehicle

specifications.).

If you turn the temperature selector (1)

until "HI" or "LO" appears on the display,

the climate control system will operate at

maximum heating or cooling and the

blower will run at full speed.

To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather

or hot air in hot weather, the system will

delay turning on the blower until warmed

or cooled air is available.

If your vehicle has been left in the sun

with the windows closed, it will cool

faster if you open the windows briefly.

Even under the automatic operation, you

can set individual selectors to the manual

mode. The manually selected functions

are maintained, and the other functions

remain under automatic operation.

If the windshield and/or the front door

windows are fogged, push the defrost

switch (5) to turn on the defroster, or

push the air flow selector (4) to change

the air flow to HEAT & DEFROST posi-

tion to defog the windows.

To return the blower speed selector (2),

air intake selector (3), and air flow selec-

tor (4) to automatic operation, push

''AUTO" switch (8).

78RB05049

Be careful not to cover the interior tem-

perature sensor (10) located between the

steering wheel and the climate control

panel, or the solar sensor (11) located at

the top of the passenger's side dashboard.

These sensors are used by the automatic

system to regulate temperature.

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT

Manual operation

You can manually control the climate con-

trol system. Set the selectors to the

desired positions.

NOTE:

If you need maximum defrosting:

push the defrost switch (5) to turn on the

defroster (the air conditioning system will

operate and FRESH AIR mode will be

selected automatically},

set the blower speed selector to high,

adjust the temperature selector to "HI"

indication on the display, and

adjust the side outlets so the air blows

on the side windows.

Maintenance

If you do not use the air conditioner for a

long period, such as during winter, it may

not give the best performance when you

start using it again. To help maintain opti-

mum performance and durability of your air

conditioner, it needs to be run periodically.

Operate the air conditioner at least once a

month for one minute with the engine

idling. This circulates the refrigerant and oil

and helps protect the internal components.

If your air conditioner is equipped with air

filters, clean or replace them as specified

in "Maintenance schedule" in "INSPEC-

TION AND MAINTENANCE" section. Have

this job done by a SUZUKI dealer as the

lower glove box must be lowered for this

job.

(For models with air conditioner refrig-

erant R-1234yf)

NOTE:

Your vehicle uses the air conditioning

refrigerant HFO-1234yf, commonly

called R-1234yf. R-1234yf replaced R-

134a for automotive applications. Other

refrigerants are available, but only R-

1234yf should be used in your vehicle.

(For the country of Singapore)

For repair and parts replacement, have

your vehicle repaired or replaced parts

by an authorized SUZUKI dealer that

has the mechanic qualified with SAE

J2845 for air conditioner of R-1234yf.

NOTICE

Using the wrong refrigerant may

damage your air conditioning sys-

tem. Use R-1234yf only. Do not mix or

replace the R-1234yfwith other refrig-

erants.

(For models with air conditioner refrig-

erant R-134a)

NOTE:

Your vehicle uses the air conditioning

refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly called R-

134a. R-134a replaced R-12 around 1993

for automotive applications. Other refriger-

ants are available, including recycled R-12,

but only R-134a should be used in your

vehicle.

NOTICE

Using the wrong refrigerant may

damage your air conditioning sys-

tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or

replace the R-134a with other refrig-

erants.
