B670C03A-DAG
This is used to select fresh outside air or
recirculation inside air.
Fresh Recirculation
With the " " mode selected, air enters the
vehicle from outside and is heated or cooled according to the other functions selected.
With the " " mode selected, air from within
the passenger compartment is drawn throughthe heating system and heated or cooled ac-cording to the other functions selected.
NOTE:It should be noted that prolonged operation
of the heating system in " " mode will giverise to misting of the windshield and sidewindows and the air within the passenger
compartment becoming stale. In addition prolonged use of the air conditioning withthe " " mode selected may result in theair within the passenger compartment be-coming excessively dry.
B670D02A-AAT Air Flow Control
B670D03A-DAG
This is used to direct the flow of air. Air can be directed to the floor, dashboard outlets, or wind-
shield. Five symbols are used to representFace, Bi-Level, Floor, Floor-Defrost and De-frost air position.

Face-Level
Selecting the “Face” mode will cause air to be
discharged through the face level vents.
Bi-Level
Air is discharged through the face vents and the
floor vents. This makes it possible to have cooler air from the dashboard vents and warm-
er air from the floor outlets at the same time.

o Set the temperature control between "Cool" and "Warm"

FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
1-36 To use the heating/ventilation system to defrost or defog the windshield:
o Set the air intake control to the position.
o Set the air flow control to the position.
o Set the temperature control to a comfortably warm position.
o Set the fan speed control to position 3 or 4.
o If vehicle is so equipped, push on the A/C for increased defogging action.
NOTE: In high humidity areas the A/C can be usedwith the air intake in the position forincreased defogging action.
B730A01A-AAT OPERATION TIPS
o To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from entering the car through the ventilation sys-
tem, temporarily set the air intake control atthe position. Be sure to return the controlto the position when the irritation haspassed to keep fresh air in the vehicle. Thiswill help keep the driver alert and comfort-able.
o Air for the heating/cooling system is drawn in through the grilles just ahead of the wind-shield. Care should be taken that these arenot blocked by leaves, snow, ice or otherobstructions.

B740D01A-AAT OPERATION TIPS
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning system, keep all windows closed to keephot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift to a lower gear. This increases enginespeed, which in turn increases the speed ofthe air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioning off to avoid the possibility of the engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not used regularly, run theair conditioning once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-cants and keep your system in peak operat-ing condition.

FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequencyand do not bend to follow the earth’s surface.Because of this, FM broadcasts generally beginto fade at short distances from the station. Also,FM signals are easily affected by buildings,mountains, or other obstructions. These canresult in certain listening conditions which mightlead you to believe a problem exists with yourradio. The following conditions are normal anddo not indicate radio trouble:FM radio stationZB500A1-A STEREO SOUND SYSTEM How Car Audio Works

FM reception
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from
transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna onyour car. This signal is then received by theradio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reached your
vehicle, the precise engineering of your audiosystem ensures high quality reproduction. How-ever, in some cases the signal coming to yourvehicle is not strong and clear. This can be dueto factors such as the distance from the radiostation, closeness of other strong radio stationsor the presence of buildings, bridges or otherlarge obstructions in the area.
Ionosphere
SSAR011A
AM reception
AM broadcasts can be received at greater dis- tances than FM broadcasts. This is becauseAM radio waves are transmitted at low fre-quency. These long, low frequency radio wavescan follow the curvature of the earth rather thantravelling straight out into the inosphere. Inaddition, they curve around obstructions so thatthey can provide better signal coverage.

B750B02Y-AAT Using a cellular phone or a two-way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehi- cle, noise may be produced from the audioequipment. This does not mean that somethingis wrong with the audio equipment. In such acase, use the cellular phone at a place as far aspossible from the audio equipment. CAUTION: When using a communication system sucha cellular phone or a radio set inside thevehicle, a separate external antenna mustbe fitted. When a cellular phone or a radioset is used by using an internal antennaalone, it may interfere with the vehicle'selectrical system and adversely affect safeoperation of the vehicle. WARNING: Don't use a cellular phone when you are driving, you must stop the car at the safeplace to use a cellular phone.

o Fading - As your car moves away from the radio station, the signal will weaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs,we suggest that you select another strongerstation.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the transmitter andyour radio can disturb the signal causingstatic or fluttering noises to occur. Reducingthe treble level may lessen this effect untilthe disturbance clears.SSAR014A
o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weak-ens, another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This isbecause your radio is designed to lock ontothe clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals be- ing received from several directions cancause distortion or fluttering. This can becaused by a direct and a reflected signalfrom the same station, or by signals fromtwo stations with close frequencies. If thisoccurs, select another station until the con-dition has passed.
