Windshield washer fluid Check that there is washer fiuid in the tank. Refill it if necessary. Use a good quality windshield washer fiuid, diluted with water
as necessary.
NOTE: SUZUKI highly recommends the use of ECSTAR brand windshield washer fluid. ECSTAR has been specially formulated for your SUZUKI product and contributes to the desired vehicle performance and ideal driving experience.
A WARNING
Do not use radiator antifreeze in the windshield washer reservoir. This can severely impair visibility when sprayed on the windshield, and also can damage your vehicle's paint.
NOTICE
Damage may result if the washer motor is operated with no fluid in the washer tank.

Air conditioning system
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.
Air conditioner filter replacement
Since special procedures are required, ask a SUZUKI dealer for this job.
78RB07042
