You can let the climate control system work
automatically. To set the system for fully-
automatic operation, follow the procedure
below.
1) Set the desired temperature by turning
the temperature selector (1).
2) Push the “AUTO” switch (7).
The blower speed selector (2), air intake
selector (3), and air flow selector (4) are
controlled automatically to maintain the set
temperature.
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
climate control system cannot lower the
inside temperature below outside tempera-
ture.
To turn the climate control system off, push
the “OFF” switch (6).
NOTE:
If the “AUTO” on the LCD display blinks,
there is a problem in the heating system
and/or air conditioning system. You should
have the system inspected by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer.
NOTE:
• To find the temperature at which you are
most comfortable, start with the 22°C
(72°F) setting.
• If you turn the temperature selector (1)
until “HI” or “LO” appears on the LCD
display, the climate control system will
operate at the maximum cooling or heat-
ing 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 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 (2),
air intake selector (3), and air flow selec-
tor (4) to automatic operation, push the
“AUTO” switch.

the top of the driver’s side dashboard.
These sensors are used by the automatic
system to regulate temperature.
