1) Confirm that vehicle and environmental conditions are as follows.
• Vehicle is put indoors.
• Ambient temperature is within 25 – 35 °C (77 – 95
° F).
• Relative humidity is within 30 – 70%.
• There is no wind indoors.
• HVAC unit is normal.
• Blower motor is normal.
• There is no air leakage from air ducts.
• Condenser fins are clean.
• Air filter in HVAC unit is not clogged with dirt and
dust.
• Battery voltage is about 12 V.
• Radiator cooling fan operates normally.
2) Make sure that high pressure valve (1) and low pressure valve (2) of manifold gauge are firmly

3) Connect high pressure charging hose (3) to high pressure service valve (5) on vehicle and low
pressure charging hose (4) to low pressure service
valve (6).
4) Bleed the air in charging hoses (3) and (4) by loosening their nuts respectively utilizing the
refrigerant pressure. When a hissing sound is heard,
immediately tighten nut.
CAUTION!
Do not connect high and low pressure
charging hoses in reverse.
Condition Possible cause Correction / Reference Item
Clattering noise is heard
from pulley Worn or damaged bearing
Replace tension pulley.
Pulley cranks upon
contact Cracked or loose bracket
Replace or retighten bracket.
ConditionPossible cause Correction / Reference Item
Whistling sound is heard
from A/C evaporator Depending on the combination of the
interior / exterior temperatures, engine
rpm and refrigerant pressure, the
refrigerant flowing out of the expansion
valve may, under certain conditions,
make a whistling sound At times, slightly decrea
sing refrigerant volume
may stop this noise.
Inspect expansion valve and replace if faulty.
Condition Possible cause Correction / Reference Item
Blower motor emits a
chirping sound in
proportion to its speed of
rotation Worn or damaged motor brushes or
commutator
Replace blower motor.
Fluttering noise or large
droning noise is heard
from blower motor Leaves or other debris introduced from
fresh air inlet to blower motor
Remove debris and make sure that the screen
at fresh air inlet is intact.

Charge
CAUTION!
• Because the sight glass is not used for this A/C system, do not perform an additional
charge to the A/C system. To charge the
proper amount of refrigerant, recover and
evacuate the A/C system first. And then,
charge the proper amount of refrigerant
into the A/C system.
• Always charge refrigerant through low pressure side of A/C system after the initial
charge is performed from the high
pressure side with the engine stopped.
• Never charge refrigerant through high pressure side of A/C system with engine
running.
• Do not charge refrigerant while compressor is hot.
• When installing tap valve to refrigerant container to make a hole there through,
carefully follow dire ctions given by
manufacturer.
• A pressure gauge should always be used before and during refrigerant charge.
• The refrigerant container should be emptied of refrigerant when discarding it.
• The refrigerant container should not be heated up to 40 °C (104 °F) or over.
• Refrigerant container should not be reversed in direction during refrigerant
charge. Reversing in direction causes
liquid refrigerant to enter compressor,
causing troubles, such as compression of
liquid refrigerant and the like.
NOTE
The air conditioning system contains HFC-
134a (R-134a).
Described here is a method to charge the air
conditioning system with refrigerant from the
refrigerant service container.
When charging refrigerant recovered by
using the refrigerant and recycling
equipment (when recycling refrigerant),
follow the procedure described in the
equipment manufacturer’s instruction
manual.
Charge proper amount of refrigerant accurately in
accordance with the following procedure.
Specified amount of refrigerant
370 ± 20 g (13.0 ± 0.7 oz)
The initial charge of the A/C system is performed
through the high pressure side with the engine stopped.
And next, this method must be followed by charging from
the low pressure side with the engine running.
1) Check if hoses are routed properly after evacuating the system.
2) Connect low charging hose (1) and high charging hose (2) of the manifold gauge set (3) in position.
Then, open refrigerant container valve (4) to purge
the charging line.
3) Open the high pressure side valve (5) and charge refrigerant to system.
4) After a while, open the low pressure side valve (6) and close the high pressure side valve.
WARNING!
Make sure that high pressure side valve is
closed securely.
5) Start engine and keep engine speed at 1500 r/min, and then operate A/C system.
6) Charge A/C system with refrigerant in vapor state. At this time, refrigerant container should be held
upright.

Precautions in Diagnosing TroubleS7RS0B7220002
• Do not disconnect couplers from HVAC control module, battery cable from battery, HVAC control module ground
wire harness from body or main fuse before confirming diagnostic information (diagnostic trouble code) stored in
HVAC control module memory.
• Diagnostic information (diagnostic trouble code) stored in HVAC control module can be checked by display of HVAC
control module. Also, it can be checked by using SU ZUKI scan tool. Before checking diagnostic information
(diagnostic trouble code), read this manual and operator's manual for SUZUKI scan tool to know how to read
diagnostic information (diagnostic trouble code).
• When trouble is diagnosed using diagnostic information (diagnostic trouble code) on display of HVAC control
module, keep in your mind that each diagnostic inform ation (diagnostic trouble code) has priority, and only
diagnostic information (diagnostic troub le code) which has the highest priority is indicated. Therefore, after
troubleshooting the malfunction, make sure if there exists any other diagnostic information (diagnostic trouble
code).
• Be sure to read “Precautions for Electrical Circuit Service in Section 00” before inspection.

Refer to “Precautions on Servicing A/C System”.
General Description
Auto A/C System DescriptionS7RS0B7221001
The automatic type air conditioning system (auto A/C) is pr ovided with the function to automatically control the inside
air temperature, fan speed, air flow outl et direction and air intake position by HVAC control module in addition to
functions of the manual type air conditioning system (manua l A/C). Once the inside air temperature is set using the
temperature selector, HVAC control module automatically controls the inside air temperature at the constant level at all
times based on the inside air temperature, outside ai r temperature, amount of sunlight and engine coolant
temperature detected respectively by the inside air te mperature sensor, outside air temperature sensor, sunload
sensor and ECT sensor. At this time, “FULL AUTO A/ C” appears on the display of HVAC control module.
With the air intake selector pushed in the above state, it is possible to select any position of the air intake actuator.
Then, “FULL AUTO A/C” on the display changes to “AUTO A/C”.

Not Using SUZUKI Scan Tool
Current DTC mode1) Light over sunload sensor vertically with an incandescent lamp of approximately 100 W apart
from about 100 mm (3.94 in.).
NOTE
If sunload sensor is not lighted over with an
incandescent lamp, DTC B1504 is detected
as current DTC even though there is not any
malfunction.
2) Start engine.
3) Wait for 20 seconds or more after engine started and set temperature selector to 25 °C (77 °F).
4) Push AUTO switch (1) and defroster switch (2) at the same time.
5) Check DTC (3).
NOTE
• DTC flashes for 15 seconds. After that, the normal display is rest ored. To have DTC
displayed again, repeat the procedure from
Step 4.
• When more than two DTCs are detected, only DTC having the highest priority is
indicated. Therefore, after troubleshooting
the malfunction, DTC check has to be
performed again to see if any other DTC(s)
is detected.
History DTC mode
1) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
2) Set temperature selector to 25 °C (77 °F).
3) Push AUTO switch (1) and MODE (air flow) selector
(2) at the same time.
4) Check DTC (4).
NOTE
Each DTC item is displayed (lights up) for 4
seconds.
When HVAC control module detects 2 or
more DTC items, each one is displayed once
starting from the one of higher priority order.
After all DTC items being detected have been
displayed, “Ed” (3) appears on display of
HVAC control module and normal display is
restored. “Ed” means that all DTC items have
been displayed.
DTC ClearanceS7RS0B7224004
NOTE
Only history DTC(s) can be cleared. Current
DTC(s) can not be cleared unless the
problem(s) is fixed.
Using SUZUKI Scan tool
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
