The pollen filter is located in front of the blower unit behind the glove box. It operates to decrease the amount ofpollutants entering the car. To replace the pollen filter, refer to the page 6-25. CAUTION:
o Replace the filter every 10,000 miles(15,000 km) or once a year. If the car is being driven in severe conditions such as dusty, roughroads, more frequent pollen filter inspections and changes are re- quired.
o When the air flow rate is decreased, it must be checked at a Hyundaiauthorised repairer.

Obstructed area Iron bridges
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequencies and do not bend to follow the earth's surface. Because of this,FM broadcasts generally begin to fade at short distances from the station. Also, FM signals are easily affected bybuildings, mountains, or other obstruc- tions. These can result in certain listen- ing conditions which might lead you tobelieve a problem exists with your ra- dio. 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 aretransmitted at low frequencies. These long, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth ratherthan travelling straight out into the at- mosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they canprovide better signal coverage.
AM and FM radio signals are broadcastfrom transmitter towers located aroundyour city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. This signal is then received by the radio and sent toyour car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reached your vehicle, the precise engineering ofyour audio system ensures the best possible quality reproduction. Howev- er, in some cases the signal coming toyour 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.

o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens, another more powerful sig- nal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger sig- nal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several di-rections can cause distortion or flut- tering. This can be caused by adirect and reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from two stations with close frequencies. Ifthis occurs, select another station until the condition has passed.
o Fading - As your car moves away
from the radio station, the signal willweaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs, we suggest that you select another stronger station.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or large obstructions between the trans-mitter and your radio can disturb the signal causing static or flutteringnoises to occur. Reducing the treble level may lessen this effect until the disturbance clears. B750B03Y-EAT Using a cellular phone or a two- way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equipment. This does not mean that something is wrong withthe audio equipment. In such a case, use the mobile phone at a place as far as possible from the audio equipment.
!
CAUTION:
When using a communication sys- tem such a mobile phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separateexternal antenna must be fitted. When a mobile phone or a radio set is used with an internal antenna alone, itmay interfere with the vehicle's elec- trical system and adversely affect safe operation of the vehicle.
WARNING:
Don't use a mobile phone whilst youare driving.

Damaged Disc Do not attempt to play damaged, warped or cracked discs. It could severelydamage the playback mechanism. Storage When not in use, place your discs in their individual case and store them in a cool place away from the sun, heat,and dust. Do not grip or pull out the disc with your hand while the disc is being pulled intothe unit by the Self Loading mecha- nism. Do not grip or pull out the disc with yourhand while the disc is being pulled into the unit by the self loading mechanism. Do not pull the unit from the dashimmediately after a disc is inserted or the eject switch has been pressed. If the unit is pulled out before an operationis completed, the disc will be unstable in the unit and may be damaged. Do not attempt to insert a disc into theunit when the unit is out of the dash or the power is off.
JB580B1-A Proper Handling Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc. Hold the disc so you will not leave fingerprints on the surface. If thesurface is scratched, it may cause the pickup to skip signal tracks. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels onthe disc. Do not write on the disc.

95CARE OF CASSETTE TAPES
HGK062-E
o Never leave a cassette inserted in
the player when not being played. This could damage the tape player unit and the cassette tape.
o We strongly recommend against the
use of tapes longer than C-60 (60minutes total). Tapes such as C-120 or C-180 are very thin and do notperform as well in the automotive environment. o Be sure that the cassette label is not
loose or peeling off or tape ejection may be difficult.
o Never touch or soil the actual audio
tape surfaces.
o Keep all magnetized objects, such as electric motors, speakers or trans-formers away from your cassettetapes and tape player unit.
o Store cassettes in a cool, dry place
with the open side facing down toprevent dust from setting in the cas- sette body.
o Avoid repeated fast reverse usage to replay one given tune or tape sec-tion. This can cause poor tape wind- ing to occur, and eventually causeexcessive internal drag and poor audio quality in the cassette. If this occurs, it can sometimes be cor-rected by fast winding the tape from end to end several times. If this does not correct the problem, do not con-tinue to use the tape in your vehicle.
SR040B1-F
Proper care of your cassette tapes will extend the tape life and increase your listening enjoyment. Always protect your tapes and cassette cases fromdirect sunlight, severe cold and dusty conditions. When not in use, cassettes should always be stored in the protec-tive cassette case in which they were originally supplied. When the vehicle is very hot or cold, allow the interior tem-perature to become more moderate be- fore listening to your cassettes. B860A01L

96ANTENNA
o The playback head, capstan and pinch rollers will develop a coating of tape residue that can result in dete- rioration of sound quality, such as awavering sound. They should be cleaned monthly using a commer- cially available head cleaning tape orspecial solution available from audio specialty shops. Follow the supplier's directions carefully and never oil anypart of the tape player unit.
o Always be sure that the tape is tightly
wound on its reel before inserting inthe player. Rotate a pencil in the drive sprockets to wind up any slack. B860A03L
NOTE: Look at a tape before you insert it. If the tape is loose, tighten it by turning one of the hubs with a pencil or your finger.If the label is peeling off, do not put it in the player. It may cause the tape jam in the drive mechanism whenyou try to eject it. Do not leave tape sitting where they are exposed to hot warm or, highhumidity, such as on top of the dash- board or in the player. If a tape is exposed to excessivelyhot or cold, let it reach a moderate temperature before putting it in the player. B870A01A

CAUTION:
Be sure to remove the antenna be- fore washing the car in an automatic car wash or the antenna may bedamaged.
