NOTICE

WARNING

Prolonged operation of the heater in the

recirculated air position (without air

conditioning selected) may cause fog-

ging of the windshield and side windows

and the air within the passenger com-

partment may become stale.

In addition, prolonged use of the air

conditioning with the recirculated air

position selected will result in excessive-

ly dry air in the passenger compart-

ment.

• Continued climate control system

operation in the recirculated air

position may allow humidity to

increase inside the vehicle which

may fog the glass and obscure

visibility.

• Do not sleep in a vehicle with the

air conditioning or heating sys-

tem on. It may cause serious

harm or death due to a drop in the

oxygen level and/or body temper-

ature.

OFD047081

D230104AUN

Fan speed control

The ignition switch must be in the ON

position for fan operation.

• Continued climate control system

operation in the recirculated air

position can cause drowsiness or

sleepiness, and loss of vehicle

control. Set the air intake control

to the outside (fresh) air position

as much as possible while driv-

ing.

The fan speed control knob allows you to

control the fan speed of the air flowing

from the ventilation system. To change

the fan speed, turn the knob to the right

for higher speed or left for lower speed.

Setting the fan speed control knob to the

“0” position turns off the fan.

Operation Tips

System operation

• To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from

entering the car through the ventilation

system, temporarily set the air intake

control to the recirculated air position.

Be sure to return the control to the

fresh air position when the irritation

has passed to keep fresh air in the

vehicle. This will help keep the driver

alert and comfortable.

position.

2. Set the air intake control to the outside

(fresh) air position.

3. Set the temperature control to the

desired position.

4. Set the fan speed control to the

of the windshield. Care should be

taken that these are not blocked by

leaves, snow, ice or other obstructions.

shield, set the air intake control to the

fresh air position and fan speed to the

desired position, turn on the air condi-

tioning system, and adjust temperature

control to desired temperature.

Push the A/C button to turn the air condi-

tioning system on (indicator light will illu-

minate). Push the button again to turn the

Air conditioning system operation tips

✽

NOTICE

Air conditioning (if equipped)

• If the vehicle has been parked in direct

sunlight during hot weather, open the

windows for a short time to let the hot

air inside the vehicle escape.

• To help reduce moisture inside of win-

dows on rainy or humid days, decrease

the humidity inside the vehicle by oper-

ating the air conditioning system.

• During air conditioning system opera-

tion, you may occasionally notice a

slight change in engine speed as the

air conditioning compressor cycles.

This is a normal system operation

characteristic.

• Use the air conditioning system every

month if only for a few minutes to

ensure maximum system performance.

ꢀ When using the air conditioning sys-

tem, monitor the temperature gauge

closely while driving up hills or in

heavy traffic when outside tempera-

tures are high. Air conditioning sys-

tem operation may cause engine over-

heating. Continue to use the blower

fan but turn the air conditioning sys-

tem off if the temperature gauge indi-

cates engine overheating.

ꢀ When opening the windows in humid

weather air conditioning may create

water droplets inside the vehicle.

Since excessive water droplets may

cause damage to electrical equipment,

air conditioning should only be run

with the windows closed.

All HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems

are filled with environmentally friendly

R-134a refrigerant which does not dam-

age to the ozone layer.

1. Start the engine. Push the air condi-

tioning button.

2. Set the mode to the

position.

3. Set the air intake control to the outside

air or recirculated air position.

4. Adjust the fan speed control and tem-

perature control to maintain maximum

comfort.

• When maximum cooling is desired, set

the temperature control to the extreme

left position then set the fan speed

control to the highest speed.

• When using the air conditioning sys-

tem, you may notice clear water drip-

ping (or even puddling) on the ground

under the passenger side of the vehi-

cle. This is a normal system operation

characteristic.

• Operating the air conditioning system

in the recirculated air position provides

maximum cooling, however, continual

operation in this mode may cause the

air inside the vehicle to become stale.

• During cooling operation, you may

occasionally notice a misty air flow

because of rapid cooling and humid air

intake. This is a normal system opera-

tion characteristics.

✽

NOTICE

ꢀ Replace the filter according to the

Maintenance Schedule.

If the car is being driven in severe

conditions such as dusty, rough roads,

more frequent climate control air fil-

ter inspections and changes are

required.

Checking the amount of air con-

ditioner refrigerant and compres-

sor lubricant

Outside air

Recirculated

air

When the amount of refrigerant is low,

the performance of the air conditioning is

reduced. Overfilling also has a bad influ-

ence on the air conditioning system.

ꢀ When the air flow rate is suddenly

decreased, the system should be

checked at an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

Therefore, if abnormal operation is

found, have the system inspected by an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

NOTICE

D230300AFD

It is important when servicing the air

conditioning system that the correct

type and amount of oil and refrigerant is

used. Otherwise, damage to the com-

pressor and abnormal system operation

may occur.

Climate control air filter

(if equipped)

The climate control air filter installed

behind the glove box filters the dust or

other pollutants that come into the vehi-

cle from the outside through the heating

and air conditioning system. If dust or

other pollutants accumulate in the filter

over a period of time, the air flow from the

air vents may decrease, resulting in

moisture accumulation on the inside of

the windshield even when the outside

(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-

pens, have the climate control air filter

replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

WARNING

The air conditioning system should

be serviced by an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer. Improper service

may cause serious injury to the

person performing the service.
