Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the
button is illuminated when
the recirculated air position
is selected.
With the recirculated air position selected, air from
passenger compartment
will be drawn through the
heating system and heated
or cooled according to the
function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position The indicator light on the
button is not illuminated
when the outside (fresh) air
position is selected.
With the outside (fresh) air
position selected, air enters
the vehicle from outside and
is heated or cooled accord-
ing to the function selected.✽ ✽NOTICE
It should be noted that prolonged oper-
ation of the heating in recirculated air
position will cause fogging of the wind-
shield and side windows and the air
within the passenger compartment will
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. WARNING
• Continued use of the climate con-
trol system operation in the recir-
culated air position may allow
humidity to increase inside vehi-
cle which may fog the glass and
obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in a vehicle with air conditioning or heating system
on. It may cause serious harm or
death due to a drop in the oxygen
level and/or body temperature.
Continued use of the climate con- trol system operation in the recir-
culated 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 driving.

Air conditioning system operation tips
If the vehicle has been parked in directsunlight 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, even if only for a few minutes,
to ensure maximum system perform-
ance.
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 does
provide maximum cooling, however,
continual operation in this mode may
cause the air inside the vehicle to
become stale.
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 deal-
er.

Replace the filter every 10,000

If the car is being driven in severeconditions such as dusty, roughroads, more frequent climate con-trol air filter inspections andchanges are required.
When the air flow rate is sudden- ly decreased, the system shouldbe checked at an authorized deal-er.
