Temperature-controlled air comes out of
the windshield defroster outlets, the side
defroster outlets and the side outlets.
1. All areas other than Mexico
NOTE:
When you push the defrost switch (7), the
“FRESH AIR” mode will be automatically
selected and the air conditioning switch will
automatically turn on (“A/C” will appear on
the display). Furthermore, it is impossible
to return to the “RECIRCULATED AIR”
mode even if you push the air intake selec-
tor (5). In cold weather, air flows out of the
defroster outlets but the air conditioning
does not turn on even though the A/C indi-
cator comes on as well as the defrost indi-
cator.
2. Mexico
NOTE:
When you push the defrost switch (7), the
“FRESH AIR” mode will be automatically
selected and the air conditioning switch will
automatically turn on (“A/C” will appear on
the display). In cold weather, air flows out
of the defroster outlets but the air condi-
tioning does not turn on even though the A/
C indicator comes on as well as the defrost
indicator.Air conditioning switch (8)
57L51016
The air conditioning switch (8) is used to
turn on and off the air conditioning system.
To turn on the air conditioning system,
push in the switch; “A/C” will appear on the
display and the indicator on the switch will
come on. To turn off the air conditioning
system, push in the switch again; “A/C”
and the indicator will go off.
You can use the air conditioning switch (8)
to manually turn the air conditioner on or off
according to your preference. When you
turn the air conditioning switch off, the cli-
mate control system cannot lower the inside
temperature below outside temperature.
System Operating InstructionsAutomatic operation
57L51013
You can let the climate control system work
automatically. To set the system for fully-auto-
matic operation, follow the procedure below.
1) Start the engine.
2) Push the “AUTO” switch (9).
3) Set the desired temperature by turning
the driver’s temperature selector (1).
The blower speed, air intake and air flow
are controlled automatically to maintain the
set temperature.
If the individual control mode is selected
with the “DUAL” switch (3), the driver and
passenger can make different temperature
adjustments from their own temperature
selectors. The individual control mode is
also selected automatically when the pas-
senger’s temperature selector (2) is turned.

To turn the climate control system off, push
the “OFF” switch (10).
NOTE:
If the “AUTO” on the display blinks, there is
a problem in the heating system and/or air
conditioning system. You should have the
system inspected by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
To find the temperature at which you are
most comfortable, start with the 72°F
(25°C) setting, for example.
If you turn the temperature selector (1)
until “HI” or “LO” appears on the display,
the climate control system will operate at
the 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 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 automatic operation, you
can set individual selectors to the man-
ual mode. The manually selected func-
tions are maintained, and the other
functions remain under automatic opera-
tion.
To return the blower speed selector (4),
air intake selector (5), and “MODE”
switch (6) to automatic operation, push
the “AUTO” switch (9).
57L51014
Be careful not to cover the interior temper-
ature sensor (12) located between the
steering wheel and the climate control
panel, or the solar sensor (13) located at
the top of the central part of the dash-
board. These sensors are used by the
automatic system to regulate temperature.
Manual operationYou can manually control the climate con-
trol system. Set the selectors to the
desired positions.
57L51015
NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting:
push the defrost switch (7) to turn on the
defroster (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
“HI” indication on the display, 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.
Radio AntennaPrinted antenna (if equipped)
57L51071
The radio antenna (1) wire is printed inside
the rear window.XM antenna (if equipped)
57L51053
The roof antenna (2) on the roof.
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.
CAUTION
Do not attach any metal objects to
the rear window glass, or place
metallic film near it. Either of these
conditions may cause poor recep-
tion or noise.
When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, be careful not to
scratch or damage the rear window
antenna. Wipe the rear window
lightly along the antenna with a
dampened soft cloth.
