2014 Hyundai Elantra Coupe air condition

4103
Features of your vehicle
Operating the air conditioning sys-
tem in the recirculated air position
provides maximum cooling, how-
ever, 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 operation characteristic.
If you operate air conditioner
excessively, the difference
between the temperature of the
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 to the lower
speed.Climate control air filter
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust
or other pollutants that come into the
vehicle 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 accu-
mulation on the inside of the wind-
shield even when the outside (fresh)
air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air fil-
ter replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in
severe conditions such as dusty,
rough roads, more frequent cli-
mate control air filter inspections
and changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative influence on the air
conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
The air conditioning system should
be serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Air Conditioning refrigerant
label
❈The actual Air Conditioning refrigerant
label in the vehicle may differ from the
illustration.
|Each symbols and specification on
air conditioning refrigerant label
means as below ;
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of Compressor lubri-
cant
Refer to chapter 8 for more detail
location of air conditioning refrigerant
label.
CAUTION- Compressor
damage
It is important that the correct
type and amount of oil and
refrigerant is used. Otherwise,
damage to the compressor and
abnormal system operation may
occur.
WARNING
Because the refriger-
ant is at very high
pressure, the air con-
ditioning system
should only be serv-
iced by trained and certified
technicians. It is important that
the correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant is used, oth-
erwise damage to the vehicle
and personal injury may occur.

Defogging logic
When defogging logic is operating,
the air intake is controlled automati-
cally (You can’t control the air intake)
according to certain conditions such
as or position to reduce the
probability of fogging up the inside of
the windshield. To cancel or return
the defogging logic, perform the fol-
lowing steps.
Manual climate control system
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
2. Press the defrost button ( ).
3. Push the air intake control button
at least 5 times within 10 seconds.
The indicator light in the air intake
control button will blink 3 times with
0.5 second of interval. It indicates that
the defogging logic is canceled or
returned to the programmed status.
If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, the system resets to
the programmed defogging logic.
Automatic climate control system
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
2. Select the defrost position press-
ing defrost button ( ).
3. While holding the air conditioning
button (A/C) pressed, press the air
intake control button at least 5
times within 3 seconds.
The indicator on the air intake control
button blinks 3 times with 0.5 second
of interval. It indicates that the defog-
ging logic is canceled or returned to
the programmed status.

(if equipped)
Auto defogging reduces the probabil-
ity of fogging up the inside of the
windshield by automatically sensing
the moisture of inside the windshield.
The auto defogging system operates
when the heater or air conditioning is
on.This indicator illuminates
when the auto defogging
system senses the mois-
ture of inside the wind-
shield and operates.
Example if auto defogging does not
defog inside the windshield at step 1
Operating the air conditioning. it tries
to defog again at step 2 Outside air
position.
Step 1 :Operating the air conditioning
Step 2 : Outside air position
Step 3 : Blowing air toward the wind-
shield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward
the windshield
Step 5 : Maximizing the air condi-
tioning

Features of your vehicle
If your vehicle is equipped with the
auto defogging system, it is automat-
ically activated when the conditions
are met. However, if you would like to
cancel the auto defogging system,
press the front defroster button for 3
seconds. The indicator will blink 3
times to notify you that the system is
cancelled. To use the auto defogging
system again, follow the procedures
mentioned above.
If the battery has been disconnected
or discharged, it resets to the auto
defogging status.✽ ✽
NOTICE
• When the air conditioning is
turned on by Auto defogging sys-
tem, if you try to turn off the air
conditioning, the indicator will
blink 3 times and the air condi-
tioning will not be turned off.
• For efficiency, do not select recir-
culated air position while Auto
defogging system is operating.
CAUTION
Do not remove the sensor cover
located on the upper end of the
driver side windshield glass.
Damage to system parts could
occur and may not be covered
by your vehicle warranty.

driving could lead to accidents
due to a lack of attention to
external surroundings. First
park the vehicle before operat-
ing the device.
Adjust the volume to levels that
allow the driver to hear sounds
from outside of the vehicle.
Driving in a state where exter-
nal sounds cannot be heard
may lead to accidents.
Pay attention to the volume set-
ting when turning the device
on. A sudden output of extreme
volume upon turning the
device on could lead to hearing
impairment. (Adjust the volume
to a suitable levels before turn-
ing off the device.)

can be heard as these signs
may indicate product malfunc-
tion. Continued use in such
conditions could lead to acci-
dents(fires, electric shock) or
product malfunctions.
Do not touch the antenna dur-
ing thunder or lightening as
such acts may lead to light-
ning induced electric shock.

DRIVING ASSIST SYSTEM
Active ECO system
Active ECO operation
Active ECO helps improve fuel effi-
ciency by controlling the engine and
transaxle. Fuel-efficiency is deter-
mined by the driver's driving habits
and road conditions.
When the Active ECO button is
pressed the ECO indicator (green)
will illuminate to show that the
Active ECO is operating. When the Active ECO is activated,
it does not turn off even though the
engine is restarted again. To turn
off the system, press the active
ECO button again.
If Active ECO is turned off, it will
return to normal mode.
When Active ECO is activated :
Engine sound may change.
Vehicle speed may slightly be
reduced.
Air conditioner performance may
be affected.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
Active ECO is designed on the
assumption of light to mild throttle
driving style to control engine and
transaxle in order to optimize fuel
economy. A person with an aggres-
sive throttle driving style may find
the engine performance in Active
ECO on mode to be unsatisfactory,
and thus may not realize any fuel
economy gain. In such an aggressive
driver style case, it would be better
to keep Active ECO off for best fuel
economy. For best results, it is rec-
ommended to compare the perform-
ance of both modes to determine
which is more effective for your
driving style.
