Floor/Defrost-Level (A, C, E, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor and the windshield with a small amount
directed to the side window defrosters.
Defrost-Level (A, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to thewindshield with a small amount of air
directed to the side window defrosters.Instrument panel vents
The outlet vents can be opened or closed
separately using the thumbwheel. To
close the vent, rotate it left to the maxi-
mum position.
Also, you can adjust the direction of air
delivery from these vents using the vent
control lever as shown.

Air intake control
This is used to select outside (fresh) air position or recirculated air position.
To change the air intake control position,
push the control button. Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the
button illuminates when therecirculated air position isselected.
With the recirculated air position selected, air from
the passenger compart-
ment will be drawn throughthe heating system andheated or cooled accordingto the function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position The indicator light on the
button does not illuminatewhen the outside (fresh) airposition is selected. With the outside (fresh) air position selected, air enters
the vehicle from outside andis heated or cooled accord-ing to the function selected.
✽✽NOTICE
Prolonged operation of the heater in the
recirculated air position (without air
conditioning selected) may cause fog-
ging of the windshield and side windows
and the air within the passenger com-
partment may 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.

Air conditioning (if equipped)
All KIA Air Conditioning Systems are
filled with environmentally friendly
R-134a refrigerant which does not dam-
age the ozone layer.
1. Start the engine. Push the air condi-tioning button.
2. Set the mode to the position.
3. Set the air intake control to the outside air or recirculated air position.
4. Adjust the fan speed control and tem- perature control to maintain maximum
comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired, set the temperature control to the extremeleft position, set the mode control to
the MAX A/C position, then set the fanspeed control to the highest speed.✽✽ NOTICE
 When using the air conditioning sys- tem, monitor the temperature gauge
closely while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when outside tempera-
tures are high. Air conditioning sys-
tem operation may cause engine over-
heating. Continue to use the blower
fan but turn the air conditioning sys-
tem off if the temperature gauge indi-
cates engine overheating.
 When opening the windows in humid weather air conditioning may create
water droplets inside the vehicle.
Since excessive water droplets may
cause damage to electrical equipment,
air conditioning should only be run
with the windows closed.
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 the windows on rainy or humid days,
decrease the humidity inside the vehi-
cle by operating the air conditioningsystem. During air conditioning system opera-
tion, you may occasionally notice aslight change in engine speed as the
air conditioning compressor cycles.
This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes to ensure
maximum system performance.
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 provides
maximum cooling, however, continual
operation in this mode may cause the
air inside the vehicle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and humid air
intake. This is a normal system opera-
tion characteristics.

Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the
button illuminates when therecirculated air position isselected.
With the recirculated air position selected, air from
passenger compartment
will be drawn through theheating system and heatedor cooled according to thefunction selected.
Outside (fresh) air position The indicator light on the
button does not illuminatewhen the outside (fresh) airposition is selected. With the outside (fresh) air position selected, air enters
the vehicle from outside andis 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.
Fan speed control
The fan speed can be set to the desired
speed by pressing the fan speed control
button.
To change the fan speed, press the right
button ( ) for higher speed, or press
the left button ( ) for lower speed.
Pressing the OFF button turns off the
fan.WARNING
Continued climate control system operation in the recirculated air
position may allow humidity to
increase inside vehicle 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 climate control system operation in the recirculated air
position can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness, and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake control tothe outside (fresh) air position as
much as possible while driving.

Before driving, clear all snow and ice from the windshield, rear window, out-
side rear view mirrors, and all side win-
dows.
Clear all snow and ice from the hood and air inlet in the cowl grill to improveheater and defroster efficiency and to
reduce the probability of fogging upinside of the windshield. Manual climate control system
To defog inside windshield
1. Select any fan speed except “0” posi-
tion.
2. Select desired temperature.
3. Select the or position.
4. The outside (fresh) air and air condi- tioning will be selected automatically.

ly, press the corresponding button manu-
ally.
WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING
WARNING - Windshield
heating
Do not use the or position during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The dif-
ference between the temperature ofthe outside air and that of the wind-shield could cause the outer sur-
face of the windshield to fog up,
causing loss of visibility. In this
case, set the mode selection knob
or button to the position and
fan speed control knob or button to
the lower speed.
