WARNING:
o The side impact airbag is supplemen-
tal to the driver's and the passenger's
seat belt systems and is not a substi-
tute for them. Therefore your seat
belts must be worn at all times while
the vehicle is in motion. The airbags
deploy only in certain side impact
conditions severe enough to cause
significant injury to the vehicle occu-
pants.
o For best protection from the side im-
pact airbag system and to avoid being
injured by the deploying side impact
airbag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position with
the seat belt properly fastened. The
driver's hands should be placed on
the steering wheel at the 9:00 and
3:00 positions. The passenger's arms
and hands should be placed on their
laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat cov-
ers.
Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of the sys-
tem.

Important Safety Notes on the Side
Impact Airbag SystemFollowing is a number of safety points
concerning this system which should al-
ways be observed to ensure risk of injury
is reduced in an accident.
B990B01TG-AATSide Impact AirbagsYour Hyundai is equipped with seat-
mounted side impact airbag in each front
seat and in the outboard rear seating po-
sitions. The purpose of the airbag is to
provide the vehicle's occupants with addi-
tional protection than that offered by the
seat belt alone. The side impact airbags
are designed to deploy only during certain
side-impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and point of
impact. The side impact airbags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact situ-
ations, collisions from the front or rear of
the vehicle or in most rollover situations.

To adjust the Zone setting:
1. Determine the desired Zone Number
based upon your current location on the
Zone Map.
2. Press and hold the
button for more
than 3 but less than 6 seconds, the
current Zone Number will appear on the
display.
3. Pressing and holding the
button
again will cause the numbers to incre-
ment (Note: they will repeat …13, 14,
15, 1, 2, …). Releasing the button when
the desired Zone Number appears on
the display will set the new Zone.
4. Within about 5 seconds the compass
will start displaying a compass heading
again.
There are some conditions that can cause
changes to the vehicle magnets. Items
such as installing a ski rack or a CB an-
tenna or even some body repair work on
the vehicle can cause changes to the
vehicle's magnetic field. In these situa-
tions, the compass will need to be re-
calibrated to quickly correct for these
changes. To re-calibrate the compass:

Control) system automatically controls
heating and cooling as follows:
1. Push the "AUTO" switch. The indicator
light will illuminate confirming that the
Face, Floor and/or Bi-Level modes as
well as the blower speed and air condi-
tioner will be controlled automatically.
The air conditioning will operate if am-
bient temperature is higher than
34.7°F(1.5°C) and automatically turns
off if the ambient temperature drops
below 33.08°F(0.6°C).2. Push the "TEMP" button to set the de-
sired temperature.
The temperature will increase to the
maximum "HI" by pushing on the
button. Each push of the button will
cause the temperature to increase by
1°F(0.5°C).
The temperature will decrease to the
minimum "LO" by pushing on the button. Each push of the button will
cause the temperature to decrease by
1°F(0.5°C).
NOTE:If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, the temperature mode will
reset to 73 °F.You can change the temperature mode
from Fahrenheit to Centigrade as fol-
lows;
Press the DUAL and MODE button si-
multaneously for 3 seconds.
The display shows that the unit of tem-
perature is adjusted to Fahrenheit or

MANUAL OPERATIONThe heating and cooling system can be
controlled manually as well by pushing
buttons other than the "AUTO" button. In
this state, the system sequentially works
according to the order of buttons selected.
The function of the buttons which are not
selected will be controlled automatically.
Press the "AUTO" button in order to convert
to automatic control of the system.
B740D02Y-AATOperation Tipso 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 com-
pressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condition-
ing off to avoid the possibility of the
engine overheating.
o During winter months or in periods when
the air conditioning is not used regu-
larly, run the air conditioning once ev-
ery month for a few minutes. This will
help circulate the lubricants and keep
your system in peak operating condi-
tion.

With the "Fresh" mode selected, air enters
the vehicle from the outside and is heated
or cooled according to the function se-
lected.
With the "Recirculation" mode selected,
air from within the passenger compart-
ment will be drawn through the heating
system and heated or cooled according to
the function selected.NOTE: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 "Recircu-
lation" mode selected may result in the
air within the passenger compartment
becoming excessively dry.

Operation Tipso To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from
entering the car through the ventilation
system, temporarily set the air intake
control at the
position. Be sure to
return the control to the
position
when the irritation has passed to keep
fresh air in the vehicle. This will help
keep the driver alert and comfortable.
o Air for the heating/cooling system is
drawn in through the grilles just ahead
of the windshield. Care should be taken
that these are not blocked by leaves,
snow, ice or other obstructions.
o To prevent interior fog on the wind-
shield, set the air intake control to the
fresh air (
) position and fan speed
to the desired position, turn on the air
conditioning system, and adjust tem-
perature control to desired tempera-
ture. tioning will operate if ambient temperature
is higher than 34.7°F (1.5°C) and auto-
matically turns off if the ambient tempera-
ture drops below 33.08°F (0.6°C).
