trol to the fresh air position when
the irritation has passed. This will
help keep the driver alert and com
fortable.

trol to the fresh air position and fan
speed to the desired position, turn
on the air conditioning system, and

When maximum cooling is desired,
set the temperature control to the
extreme left position then set the fan
speed control to the highest speed.When using the air conditioning sys
tem, monitor the temperature gauge
closely while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when outside tempera

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.
• After sufficient cooling has been achieved, switch back from the
recirculated air to the fresh outside
air position.
• To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the win
dows closed.
• Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per
formance. • If you operate air conditioner
excessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air
and that of the windshield could
cause the outer surface 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.
System maintenance
Climate control air filter
This filter is installed behind the glove
box. It filters the dust or other pollu
tants that enter the vehicle through the
heating and air conditioning system.
We recommend the climate control air
filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer 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 inspec
tions and changes are required.
