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 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.

Features of your vehicle
Recirculated air positionWith 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 airconditioning selected) may cause fog-
ging of the windscreen and side windows
and the air within the passenger com-partment 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.WARNING
 Continue using the climate control system in the recirculated air posi-
tion may allow humidity to
increase inside the vehicle which
may fog the glass and obscure vis-
ibility.
 Do not sleep in a vehicle with the 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.
 Continue using the climate control system in the recirculated air posi-
tion can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness, and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake control tothe outside (fresh) air position as
much as possible whilst driving.

 For maximum defrosting, set the tem-perature control to the extreme
right/hot position and the fan speedcontrol to the highest speed.
 If warm air to the floor is desired whilst defrosting or defogging, set the modeto the floor-defrost position.
 Before driving, clear all snow and ice from the windscreen, rear window, out-
side rear view mirrors, and all side win-
dows.
 Clear all snow and ice from the bonnet and air inlet in the cowl grill to improveheater and defroster efficiency and to
reduce the probability of fogging up theinside of the windscreen.
Manual climate control system
To defog inside windscreen
1. Set the fan speed to the desired posi-tion.
2. Select desired temperature.

WARNING
- Windscreen
heating
Do not use the position during
cooling operation in extremely
humid weather. The differencebetween the temperature of the out-side air and the windscreen couldcause the outer surface of the
windscreen to fog up, causing loss
of visibility. In this case, set the
mode selection to the position
and fan speed control to the lowerspeed.
