• During air conditioning system opera-
tion, you may occasionally notice a
slight 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 characteristics.Fuel-fired Heater (If Equipped)
This fuel-fired heater supplies additional
heat to the interior compartment with a
low fuel consumption to compensate the
heat provided by engine alone.
The following 3 conditions should be
meet at the same time for automatic
operation of the fuel-fired heater.
• Engine runs.
• Ambient temperature is lower than 5°C.
• Coolant temperature is lower than
68°C.
A cleaning process of the fuel-fired
heater will be performed automatically
when the heater is not operated due to
increase of coolant temperature and igni-
tion off.
During cleaning process, supplied fuel in
the heater will be burnt completely and
any smoke will be expelled. It is a neces-
sary process for next operation and dura-
bility of the heater and takes about 1~3
minutes.
✽NOTICE
• The following symptoms will occur
and it is normal.
- A white smoke may come out from
the fuel-fired heater exhaust pipe
during operation of the heater.
However, when an excessive black
smoke is discharged, the fuel-fired
heater should be inspected.
- A “buk-buk” noise from the heater is
a noise to form flame for combus-
tion.
- When the heater is operated at full
load, a “Wooing” noise occurs.
- When shutting off the engine during
heater operation, a “Wing” noise
occurs to perform the cleaning
process.
• When refueling, stop operation of the
fuel-fired heater by shutting off the
engine.

Features of your vehicle
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, we recommend that the climate
control air filter be replaced by an author-
ized 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, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
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 negative
impact on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, we recommend that the sys-
tem be 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.

Temperature control
The temperature control button (knob)
allows you to control the temperature of
the airflow in the vehicle.
To change the temperature :
• Press the (red) switch to increase
temperature.
• Press the (blue) switch to decrease
temperature.
The temperature status will be displayed
at the above switch panel as a indicator.
Air intake control
The air intake control is used to select
the outside (fresh) air position or recircu-
lated air position.
To change the air intake control position,
press the control button.Recirculated air position
With the recirculated air
position selected, air from
the passenger compart-
ment will be drawn through
the heating system and
heated or cooled according
to the function selected.
❈According to the outside temperature if
the recirculation air position is on for a
long time, the air intake position will auto-
matically change to the outside(fresh) air
position to ventilate the inside air.
Outside (fresh) air position
With the outside (fresh) air
position selected, air enters
the vehicle from outside
and is heated or cooled
according to the function
selected.

Air conditioning (if equipped)
HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems are
filled with environmentally friendly
R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the engine. Push the air condi-
tioning button.
2. Set the mode to the position.
3. Set the air intake control to the outside
air or recirculated air position.
4. Adjust the fan speed control and tem-
perature control to maintain maximum
comfort.
• When maximum cooling is desired, set
the temperature control to the extreme
left position, then set the fan speed
control to the highest speed.✽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 conditioning
system.• During air conditioning system opera-
tion, you may occasionally notice a
slight 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.
