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 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.
If your air conditioner is equipped with air
filters, clean or replace them as specified
in “Maintenance schedule” in the
“INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE” sec-
tion. Have this job done by an authorized
SUZUKI dealer or a qualified workshop as
the lower glove box must be lowered for
this job.
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 or a
qualified workshop that has the
mechanic qualified with SAE J2845 for
air conditioner of R-1234yf.
How to use air conditioning system
effectively
If you do not use the air conditioner for
a long period
Ensure that the air conditioner is used at
least once a month, so as to circulate the
refrigerant throughout the air conditioning
system. The refrigerant contains the oil
necessary for lubricating the system’s
parts, which contributes to maintaining the
air conditioner’s performance.
Parking under the blazing sun
After parking for a long time under the
blazing sun, the interior temperature can
become very high. Use the air conditioning
system, with the windows or doors opened
to ventilate the interior.
NOTICE
Using the wrong refrigerant may
damage your air conditioning sys-
tem. Use R-1234yf only. Do not mix or
replace the R-1234yf with other refrig-
erants.
