Temperature-controlled air comes out of the windshield defroster outlets, the side defroster outlets and the side outlets.
OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Air conditioning switch (5) To turn on the air conditioning system, set the blower speed selector to a position other than off and push in "NC" switch. With this "NC" switch operation, a indica­tor light will come on when the air condi­tioning system is working. To turn off the air conditioning system, push "NC" 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 tem­perature.
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 base 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 tem­perature 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 heating
efficiency.
Quick heating (using recirculated air) The base settings are the same as for nor­mal heating except you select RECIRCU­LATED AIR. If you use this heating method for an extended period of time, the air in the vehicle can become contaminated 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.

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Head cooled/Feet warmed heating Select BI-LEVEL and FRESH AIR, the temperature selector to the desired tem­perature position, and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed posi­tion. Unless the temperature selector is in the fully cold position or fully hot position, 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 Set the air flow selector to VENTILATION, the temperature selector to the desired tem­perature position and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed posi­tion, and turn on "NG" switch. 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 RECIRCU­LATED AIR increases cooling efficiency.
Quick cooling (using recirculated air) The base settings are the same as for nor­mal cooling except you select RECIRCU­LATED 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 and the windows tend to get misted. There­fore, you should select FRESH AIR whenever possible.
5-21
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 Set the air flow selector to a desired air flow selector position, the temperature selector to the desired temperature posi­tion and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed position. Also select FRESH AIR and turn on "NG" switch.
NOTE: Because the air conditioner dehumidifies the air, turning it on will help keep the win­dows clear, even when blowing heated air using DEFROST or HEAT & DEFROST functions.
NOTE: If you need maximum defrosting: select DEFROST and FRESH AIR, set the blower speed selector to high, adjust the temperature selector to the hot end, turn on 'WC" switch, 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 opti­mum 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 "INSPEC­TION AND MAINTENANCE" section.
(For models with air conditioner refrig­erant 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.
OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
NOTICE
Using the wrong refrigerant may damage your air conditioning sys­tem. Use R-1234yf only. Do not mix or replace the R-1234yf with other refrig­erants.
(For models with air conditioner refrig­erant 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 refriger­ants 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 sys­tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or replace the R-134a with other refrig­erants.

You can let the climate control system work automatically. To set the system for fully-auto­matic 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 deacti­vated 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 cli­mate 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 tem­perature 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 posi­tion to defog the windows. To return the blower speed selector (2), air intake selector (3), and air flow selec­tor (4) to automatic operation, push ''AUTO" switch (8).
