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.
System operating instructions
Automatic operation
78RB05048
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).
78RB05049
Be careful not to cover the interior temperature sensor (10) located between the steering wheel and the climate control panel, or the solar sensor (11) located at the top of the passenger's side dashboard. These sensors are used by the automatic system to regulate temperature.

OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Manual operation You can manually control the climate control system. Set the selectors to the desired positions.
NOTE: If you need maximum defrosting: push the defrost switch (5) to turn on the defroster (the air conditioning system will operate and FRESH AIR mode will be selected automatically},
set the blower speed selector to high, adjust the temperature selector to "HI" indication on the display, 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. Have this job done by a SUZUKI dealer as the lower glove box must be lowered for this job.
(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.
NOTICE
Using the wrong refrigerant may damage your air conditioning system. Use R-1234yf only. Do not mix or replace the R-1234yfwith 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.

Notes on MP3/WMA/AAC
What is MP3? An abbreviation of "MPEG audio layer3", MP3 is an audio compression format that has become the standard format among PC users. Its merit is that the original audio data is compressed to approximately 1/10 and high sound quality is maintained. This means that it is possible to store the data of approximately 1 0 music CDs on a single CD-R/ RW disc, which in turn makes it possible to play music for a long time without having to change the disc.
WhatisWMA? An abbreviation of "Windows Media Audio," WMA is an audio compression format developed by Microsoft. WMA files for which the ORM (Digital Rights Management) function is on cannot be played. Windows Media™ and the Windows® logo are trademarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries.
What isAAC? An abbreviation of "Advanced Audio Coding," AAC is an audio compression format used by MPEG2 and MPEG4.
Points to remember when making MP3/ WMA/AAC files Common High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommended for high quality sounds. Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended. Selecting VBR may cause display of incorrect playing time and jumpiness of playback. Playback sound quality varies depending on the encoding environment. For details, refer to the user manual of the encoding software and the writing software in use.
NOTICE
Never use 11.mp3", 11 .wma" or ".m4a" as a file name extension if it is not in the MP3/WMA/AAC format file. Failure to observe this may result in damage to the speaker due to noise production.
