Filter inspection
If the vehicle is operated in extremely
dusty or sandy areas, replace the ele-
ment more often than the usual recom-
mended intervals.
The climate control air filter should be
replaced according to the Maintenance
Schedule. If the vehicle is operated in
severely air-polluted cities or on dusty
rough roads for a long period, it should
be inspected more frequently and re-
placed earlier. When you replace the
climate control air filter, replace it per-
forming the following procedure, and be
careful to avoid damaging other com-
ponents.
NOTICE
• Do not drive with the air cleaner fil-
ter removed. This will result in ex-
cessive engine wear.
• When removing the air cleaner fil-
ter, be careful that dust or dirt does
not enter the air intake, or damage
may result.
Replace the filter according to the Main-
tenance Schedule.
• Use HYUNDAI genuine parts or the
equivalent speficied for your vehi-
cle. Use of parts without the match-
ing quality could damage the en-
