NOTICE
The power tailgate can be operated when the engine is not running.
However the power operation con-
sumes large amounts of vehicle elec-
tric power. To prevent the battery
from being discharged, do not operate
it excessively e.g.: more than approxi-
mately 10 times repeatedly.
To prevent the battery from being dis- charged, do not leave the power tail-
gate in the open position for a long
lime.
Do not apply excessive force while operating the power tailgate. This
could cause damage to the power tail-
gate.
Do not modify or repair any part of the power tailgate by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
When jacking up the vehicle to change a tire or repair the vehicle, do
not operate the power tailgate. This
could cause the power tailgate to oper-
ate improperly.
D070401AEN
Automatic stop and reversal
If, during power opening or closing, the
tailgate is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the power tailgate will detect
the resistance, then the chime will sound
3 times, and it will stop movement or
move to the full open position to allow theobject to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak such as from an object that is thin or soft, orthe tailgate is near the latched position,
the automatic stop and reversal may notdetect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the power
tailgate is forced by a strong impact, the
automatic stop and reversal may oper-
ate. If the automatic stop and reversal feature
operates continuously more than twice
during one opening or closing operation,
the power tailgate may stop at that posi-
tion. At this time, close the tailgate man-
ually and operate the tailgate automati-cally again.

signal lever slightly and hold it in position
(B). The lever will return to the OFF posi-tion when released.
If an indicator stays on and does not
flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of the
turn signal bulbs may be burned out andwill require replacement.
✽✽

If an indicator flash is abnormally quick
or slow, a bulb may be burned out or
have a poor electrical connection in the
circuit.

✽✽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 direct
sunlight 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 characteristic.

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
dealer.
✽✽
NOTICE
Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule.
If the car is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty or rough
roads, more frequent air conditioner
filter inspections and changes are
required.
When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.D230400AEN
Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and compres-sor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has a negativeimpact on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
✽✽ NOTICE
It is important when servicing the air
conditioning system that the correct
type and amount of oil and refrigerant is
used. Otherwise, damage to the com-
pressor and abnormal system operation
may occur.
WARNING
The air conditioning system should
be serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Improper service
may cause serious injury to the
person performing the service.
