Air Intake Control Switch
(Without A.Q.S)
This is used to select fresh outside air or
recirculation inside air.
To change the air intake control mode, (Fresh
mode, Recirculation mode) push the control
button.
FRESH MODE ( ) : The indicator light on the
button goes on when the air intake control is in
fresh mode.
RECIRCULATION MODE ( ) : The indica-
tor light on the button is illuminated when the air
intake control is in recirculation mode.With the "Fresh" mode selected, air enters the
vehicle from the outside and is heated or cooled
according to the function selected.
With the "Recirculation" mode selected, air from
within the passenger compartment will be drawn
through the heating system and heated or
cooled according to the function selected.
NOTE:o It should be noted that prolonged opera-
tion of the heating system in "recircula-
tion" mode will give rise to fogging of the
windshield and side windows and the air
within the passenger compartment will
become stale. In addition, prolonged
use of the air conditioning with the "Re-
circulation" mode selected may result in
the air within the passenger compart-
ment becoming excessively dry.
o When the ignition switch is turned "ON"
the air intake control will change to " "
mode (regardless of switch position).
This is normal operation. The air intake
control operates in "AUTO" mode when

Exhaust gas cutoff mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside.
But if exhaust gas enters the vehicle from the
outside, the exhaust gas cutoff mode ( ) is
automatically converted to the mode, to
prevent exhaust gas from entering the vehicle.
NOTE:o It should be noted that prolonged opera-
tion of the heating system in recircula-
tion mode ( ) will give rise to misting
of the windshield and side windows and
the air within the passenger compart-
ment will become stale. In addition, pro-
longed use of the air conditioning with
the recirculation mode ( ) selected
may result in the air within the passenger
compartment becoming excessively dry.
o When the ignition switch is turned "ON"
the air intake control will change to "Fresh
( )" mode (regardless of the switch
position). This is normal operation. The
air intake control is operated in "AUTO"

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 keep hot
air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift
to a lower gear. This increases engine speed,
which in turn increases the speed of the 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 the
air conditioning once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-
cants and keep your system in peak oper-
ating condition.

FM reception
B750A01L
Obstructed areaIron bridges
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequen-
cies and do not bend to follow the earth's
surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts gen-
erally begin to fade at short distances from the
station. Also, FM signals are easily affected by
buildings, mountains, or other obstructions.
These can result in certain listening conditions
which might lead you to believe a problem exists
with your radio. The following conditions are
normal and do not indicate radio trouble: AM broadcasts can be received at greater
distances than FM broadcasts. This is because
AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequen-
cies. These long, low frequency radio waves
can follow the curvature of the earth rather than
travelling straight out into the atmosphere. In
addition, they curve around obstructions so that
they can provide better signal coverage.
B750A02A-AATHow Car Audio Works
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast from
transmitter towers located around your city.
They are intercepted by the radio antenna on
your car. This signal is then received by the
radio and sent to your car speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached your
vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio
system ensures the best possible quality repro-
duction. However, in some cases the signal
coming to your vehicle may not be strong and
clear. This can be due to factors such as the
distance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong radio stations or the presence of
buildings, bridges or other large obstructions in
the area.Ionosphere

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!C010A01GK-AATEngine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately.
o Do not inhale exhaust fumes.
Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation.
o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If you hear a change
in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the car, have the exhaust system checked
as soon as possible by your Hyundai dealer.
o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the engine in your garage any
longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out.
o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake
set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
If you must drive with the tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the windshield are kept clear
of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.

!PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:Engine exhaust and a wide variety of automobile components and parts, including components found in the interior furnishings in a vehicle,
contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids
contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer
and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
