blower speed selector to a position other

than “OFF”.

Normal heating (using outside air)

Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the tem-

perature selector to the desired tempera-

ture position and the blower speed selector

to the desired blower speed position. Set-

ting the blower speed selector to a higher

blower speed position increases heating

efficiency.

Quick heating (using recirculated air)

The control settings are the same as for

normal heating except you select “RECIR-

CULATED AIR”. If you use this heating

method for an extended period of time, the

air in the vehicle can become contami-

nated and the windows can become misty.

heating and change to the normal heating

method as soon as possible.

Head cooled/Feet warmed heating

Select “BI-LEVEL” and “FRESH AIR”, the

temperature selector to the desired tem-

perature position, and the blower speed

selector to the desired blower speed posi-

tion. Unless the temperature selector is in

the fully COLD position or fully HOT posi-

tion, the air that comes out of the center

and side outlets will be cooler than the air

that comes out of the floor outlets.

Defrosting/Feet warmed heating

Select “HEAT & DEFROST” and “FRESH

AIR”, the temperature selector to the

desired temperature position, and the

blower speed selector to HIGH. When the

windshield has become clear, set the

blower speed selector to the desired

blower speed position.

Defrosting

Select “DEFROST” and “FRESH AIR”, the

temperature selector to the desired tem-

perature position (higher temperature pro-

vides more efficient defrosting), and the

blower speed selector to HIGH. When the

windshield has become clear, set the

blower speed selector to the desired

blower speed position.

switch again.

During operation of the air conditioner, you

may notice slight changes in engine

speed. These changes are normal, the

system is designed so that the compressor

turns on or off to maintain the desired tem-

perature.

Less operation of the compressor results

in better fuel economy.

System Operating Instructions

Natural ventilation

Select “VENTILATION” and “FRESH AIR”,

the temperature selector to the desired

temperature position, and the blower

speed selector to “OFF”. Fresh air will flow

through the vehicle during driving.

Forced ventilation

The control settings are the same as for

natural ventilation except you set the

blower speed selector to a position other

than “OFF”.

Normal heating (using outside air)

Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the tem-

perature selector to the desired tempera-

ture position and the blower speed selector

to the desired blower speed position. Set-

ting the blower speed selector to a higher

blower speed position increases heating

efficiency.

Quick heating (using recirculated air)

The control settings are the same as for

normal heating except you select “RECIR-

CULATED AIR”. If you use this heating

method for an extended period of time, the

air in the vehicle can become contami-

nated and the windows can become misty.

Therefore, use this method only for quick

heating and change to the normal heating

method as soon as possible.

Head cooled/Feet warmed heating

Select “BI-LEVEL” and “FRESH AIR”, the

temperature selector to the desired tem-

perature position, and the blower speed

selector to the desired blower speed posi-

tion. Unless the temperature selector is in

the fully COLD position or fully HOT posi-

tion, the air that comes out of the center

and side outlets will be cooler than the air

that comes out of the floor outlets.

Normal cooling

Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow

selector to “VENTILATION”, the tempera-

ture selector to the desired temperature

position and the blower speed selector to

the desired blower speed position. Setting

the blower speed selector to a higher

blower speed position increases cooling

efficiency.

You can switch the air intake selector to

either “FRESH AIR” or “RECIRCULATED

AIR” as you desire. Choosing “RECIRCU-

LATED AIR” increases cooling efficiency.

Quick cooling (using recirculated air)

The control settings are the same as for

normal cooling except you select “RECIR-

CULATED AIR” and the highest blower

speed.

NOTE:

• If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR” for

an extended period of time, the air in the

vehicle can become contaminated.

Therefore, you should occasionally

select “FRESH AIR”.

• If your vehicle has been left in the sun

with the windows closed, it will cool

faster if you open the windows briefly

while you operate the air conditioner with

the air intake selector at “FRESH AIR”

and the blower at high speed.

Dehumidifying

Turn on the “A/C” switch, set the air flow

selector to a desired air flow selector posi-

tion, and select “FRESH AIR”, the temper-

ature selector to the desired temperature

position, and the blower speed selector to

the desired blower speed position.

NOTE:

Because the air conditioner dehumidifies

the air, turning it on will help keep the win-

dows clear, even when blowing heated air

using the “DEFROST” or “HEAT &

DEFROST” functions.

79J070

NOTE:

If you need maximum defrosting:

• select “DEFROST” and “FRESH AIR”,

• turn on the “A/C” switch,

• set the blower speed selector to HIGH,

• adjust the temperature selector to the

HOT end, 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.

Your air conditioner is equipped with air fil-

ters. Clean or replace them as specified in

the “Maintenance Schedule” in the

“INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE” sec-

tion. Have this job done by your SUZUKI

dealer as the lower glove box must be low-

ered for this job.

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

refrigerants are available, including recy-

cled R-12, but only R-134a should be used

in your vehicle.

EXAMPLE

CAUTION

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.

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3 (MPEG1/2 Audio Layer-III) and WMA

(Windows Media

Audio) are the com-

pression formats of digital audio. The

former is developed by MPEG (Motion Pic-

ture Experts Group), and the latter is

developed by Microsoft Corporation. Using

these compression formats, you can

record the contents of about 10 music CDs

on a single CD media (This figures refer to

data recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-

RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps and a

sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).

Points to remember when making MP3/

WMA files

Common

• High bit rate and high sampling fre-

quency are recommended for high qual-

ity sounds.

• Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not

recommended because playing time is

not displayed properly and sound may

be skipped.

• The playback sound quality differs

depending on the encoding circum-

stances. For details, refer to the user

manual of your own encoding software

and writing software.

MP3

• It is recommended to set the bit rate to

“128 kbps or more” and “fixed”.

WMA

• It is recommended to set the bit rate to

“64 kbps or more” and “fixed”.

• Do not set the copy protect attribute on

the WMA file to enable this unit to play

back.

NOTE:

Never assign the “.mp3”, or “.wma” file

name extension to a file that is not in the

MP3/WMA format. This may not only pro-

duce noise from the speaker damage, but

also damage your hearing.

Recording MP3/WMA files on a CD-

media

• You are recommended to minimize the

chances of making a disc that contains

both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA files.

• If CD-DA files are on the same disc as

MP3 or WMA files, the songs may not

play in the intended order, or some

songs may not play at all.

• When storing MP3 data and WMA data

on the same disc, use different folders

for each data.

• Do not record files other than MP3/WMA

files and unnecessary folder on a disc.

• The name of an MP3/WMA file should

be added by rules as shown in the fol-

lowing descriptions and also comply with

the rules of each file system.

• The file extension “.mp3” or “.wma”

should be assigned to each file depend-

ing on the file format.

• You may encounter trouble in playing

MP3/WMA files or displaying the infor-

mation of MP3/WMA files recorded with

certain writing software or CD recorders.

• This unit does not have a play list func-

tion.

• Although Multi-session recording is sup-

ported, the use of Disc-at-Once is rec-

ommended.

ground-based repeaters are placed in

major metropolitan areas, but depending

on the geographic situation (for example, if

mountains or buildings are on the south

side of your vehicle), you may experience

reception problems.

You can use the roof rails or the roof rack

anchors to attach the optional roof rack

which is available at your SUZUKI dealer. If

you use a roof rack, observe the instruc-

tions and precautions in this section and

provided with the roof rack.

• Make sure the roof rack is securely

installed.

• To mount various types of cargo (such

as skis, bicycles, etc.) properly, use suit-

able attachments which are available

from your SUZUKI dealer. Be sure to

install the attachments properly and

securely according to the instructions

provided. Do not mount cargo directly on

the roof panel. The cargo can damage

the roof panel.

• The gross weight of the roof rack plus

cargo must not exceed the loading

capacity (50 kg (110 lbs)). Also, do not

let the gross vehicle weight (fully loaded

vehicle including driver, passengers,

cargo, roof load and trailer tongue

weight) exceed the Gross Vehicle

Weight Rating (GVWR) listed in the

driver’s door lock pillar.

• Mount and secure the cargo onto the

roof rack properly according to the

instructions provided. Be sure to stow

the heaviest items at the bottom and dis-

tribute the cargo as evenly as possible.

• Do not carry items so large that they

hang over the bumpers or the sides of

the vehicle, or block your view.

• Secure the front and rear ends of long

items – such as wood panels, surfboards

and so forth – to both the front and rear

of the vehicle. You should protect the

painted surfaces of the vehicle from

scuffing caused by tie-down ropes.

• Check periodically to make sure the roof

rack is securely installed and free from

damage.

• For vehicles with roof rack anchors,

make sure the anchors are covered with

the caps when not in use.

WARNING

• Abrupt maneuvers or failure to

properly secure cargo can allow the

cargo to fly off the vehicle and hit

others, causing personal injury or

property damage.

• Mount cargo securely and avoid

abrupt maneuvers such as “jack-

rabbit” starts, sharp turns, fast cor-

nering and sudden braking. Check

periodically to make sure that

cargo is securely fastened.

• Large, bulky, long, or flat items can

affect vehicle aerodynamics or be

caught by the wind, and can reduce

vehicle control resulting in an acci-

dent and personal injury. Drive cau-

tiously at a safely reduced speed

when carrying this type of cargo.
