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.
Your air conditioner is equipped with air fil-
ters. Clean or replace them as specified in
“Maintenance schedule” in “INSPECTION
AND MAINTENANCE” section. Have this
job done by your SUZUKI dealer 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 refriger-
ants are available, but only R-1234yf
should be used in your vehicle.
Radio antenna
63J055
The radio antenna on the roof is remov-
able. To remove the antenna, turn it coun-
terclockwise. To reinstall the antenna, turn
it clockwise firmly by hand.
Installation of radio frequency
transmitters
NOTE:
When you intend to use Radio Frequency
(RF) transmitting equipment in your vehi-
cle, refer to “Installation of radio frequency
(RF) transmitting equipment” in the end of
this book.
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.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to the radio
antenna:
• Remove the antenna when using an
automatic car wash.
• Remove the antenna when the
antenna hits anything such as a
low ceiling in a parking garage or
putting a car cover over your vehi-
cle.
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
Improper installation of mobile com-
munication equipment such as cellu-
lar telephones, CB (Citizen’s Band)
radios or any other wireless transmit-
ters may cause electronic interfer-
ence with your vehicle’s ignition
system, resulting in vehicle perfor-
mance problems. Consult your
SUZUKI dealer or qualified service
technician for advice.
