defroster outlets and the side outlets.
NOTE:
When the air flow selector (3) is turned
either to “Heat & defrost (f)” or “Defrost
(g)”, the air conditioning system will come
on and the “FRESH AIR” mode will be
selected automatically. But in very cold
weather, the air conditioning system will
not turn on.
System Operating InstructionsAutomatic operation
66J044
You can let the climate control system
work automatically. To set the system in
fully-automatic operation, follow the proce-
dure below.
1) Set the desired temperature by turning
the temperature selector (1).
2) Turn the blower speed selector (2) to
the “AUTO” position.
3) Push the “AUTO” position of the air flow
selector (3).
Then the blower speed selector/air intake
selector (2) and air flow selector (3) are
controlled automatically to maintain the set
temperature.
The air conditioning switch (1) is to be
selected manually according to your taste.

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, turn
the blower speed selector (2) to the “OFF”
position.
NOTE:
To find your comfortable zone, start with
the 25°C (75°F) setting.
If you turn the temperature selector (1)
to the highest or lowest limit, the climate
control system will operate at the maxi-
mum cooling or heating 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 chilled 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 some of the blower speed selec-
tor/air intake selector (2) and air flow
selector (3) into manual mode. Then the
manually selected function is maintained
preferentially, and the other functions
remain under automatic operation.
To return the air intake selector (2) to
automatic operation when both the
blower speed selector (2) and the air
flow selector (3) are in the “AUTO” posi-
tion, turn either the selector (2) or (3) toa position other than “AUTO”, then turn
to the “AUTO” position again.
64J080
Be careful not to cover the interior temper-
ature sensor (F) located between the
steering wheel and the climate control
panel, or the solar sensor (G) located at
the top of the driver’s side dashboard.
These sensors are used by the automatic
system to regulate temperature.
Manual operation
You can manually control the climate con-
trol system. Set the selectors to your
desired position.
64J074
NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting:
set the air flow selector to “DEFROST”
(the air conditioning system will come on
and the “FRESH AIR” mode will be
selected automatically),
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.

MaintenanceIf 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.

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.

Precautions When the inside of the car is very cold
and the player is used soon after switch-
ing on the heater, moisture may form on
the disc or the optical parts of the player
and proper playback may not be possi-
ble. If moisture forms on the disc, wipe it
off with a soft cloth. If moisture forms on
the optical parts of the player, do not use
the player for about one hour, this will
allow the condensation to disappear nor-
mally.
Driving on extremely bumpy roads which
cause severe vibrations may cause
sound to skip.
This unit uses a precision mechanism.
Even in the event that trouble arises,
never open the case, disassemble the
unit, or lubricate the rotating parts.
Please bring the unit to an authorized
SUZUKI dealer or a Clarion service
Department.

soft cloth, and wipe in a straight line from
the center of the compact disc to the cir-
cumference.
52D277
New discs may have some roughness
around the edges. The unit may not work
or the sound may skip if such discs are
used. Use a ball-point pen (B), etc. to
remove the roughness (C) from edges of
the disc before insertion inside the unit.
