Recirculated air position
With the recirculated airposition selected, air from
the passenger compart-
ment will be drawn throughthe heating system andheated or cooled according
to the function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position With the outside (fresh) airposition selected, air
enters the vehicle from out-side and is heated orcooled according to the
function selected.
✽✽ NOTICE
Prolonged operation of the heater in the
recirculated air position (without air
conditioning selected) may cause fogging
of the windscreen and side windows and
the air within the passenger compart-
ment may become stale.
In addition, prolonged use of the air con-
ditioning with the recirculated air posi-
tion selected will result in excessively dry
air in the passenger compartment.
Fan speed control
The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for fan operation.
The fan speed control knob allows you to
control the fan speed of the air flowing
from the ventilation system. To change
the fan speed, turn the knob to the right
for higher speed or left for lower speed.
Setting the fan speed control knob to the
“0” position turns off the fan.
WARNING
• Continue using the climate con- trol system in the recirculated air
position may allow humidity to
increase inside the vehicle which
may fog the glass and obscure
visibility.
Do not sleep in a vehicle with the air conditioning or heating sys-
tem on. It may cause serious
harm or death due to a drop in the
oxygen level and/or body temper-
ature.
Continue using the climate con- trol system in the recirculated air
position can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness, and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake controlto the outside (fresh) air position
as much as possible whilst driv-ing.

Features of your vehicle
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 characteristic. D230300AFD
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 windscreen even when the outside
(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air filter
replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.✽✽
NOTICE
 Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule.
If the car is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty, rough roads,
more frequent climate control air fil-
ter inspections and changes are
required.
 When the air flow rate is suddenly
decreased, the system should be
checked at a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.

WARNING - ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
Engine exhaust gases are potentially lethal. If at any time engine exhaust gas is detected within the passenger compartment,
move the vehicle to an open area and open all windows.
• Never inhale exhaust gas.
Exhaust gases contain Carbon Monoxide which is colourless and odourless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and can cause
unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation.

Ensure that the exhaust system is maintained in good condition and is free from excessive corrosion and damage which may
result in leakage. If the vehicle is driven over an object which strikes the exhaust system, ensure that the exhaust system is
inspected at the first available opportunity to ensure that no leakage exists.
Do not run the engine in confined spaces, allowing the engine to idle in a garage, even when the doors are open is dangerous
practice. Only start the engine immediately prior to moving the vehicle out of the garage.

If it is necessary to allow the vehicle to idle for prolonged periods, ensure that the heating system air intake control is set to the
"Fresh" position, the blower is set to high speed operation and that the vehicle is standing in an open area.

If it is necessary to carry long objects which do not permit the tailgate door to be fully closed, the side windows must remain
closed and the heating air intake control set to the "Fresh" position with the blower running at the highest speed setting.
To ensure correct operation of the heater system, the air intake grilles at the base of the windscreen must not be obstructed b y
snow leaves etc.
