System Operation
Ventilation
1. Select the Face Level mode.
2. Set the air intake control to theoutside (fresh) air position.
3. Set the temperature control to the desired position.
4. Set the fan speed control to the desired speed.
Heating
1. Select the Floor Level mode.
2. Set the air intake control to theoutside (fresh) air position.
3. Set the temperature control to the desired position.
4. Set the fan speed control to the desired speed.
5. If dehumidified heating is desired, turn the air conditioning system on.
If the windshield fogs up, select the
Floor & Defrost mode or press
the Front Defrost mode.
Operation Tips
To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from entering the car through the
ventilation system, temporarily set
the air intake control to the recircu-
lated air position. Return the con-trol to the fresh air position whenthe dust or odor has dissipated.
This will help keep the driver alert
and comfortable.
To prevent the inside of the wind- shield from fogging, set the air
intake control to the fresh air posi-
tion and fan speed to the desired
position, turn on the air conditioning
system, and adjust the temperature
control to desired temperature.
Air conditioning
All HYUNDAI Air Conditioning
Systems are filled with environmen-
tally friendly R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the engine.
2. Push the air conditioning button.
3. Set the mode to the Face Level mode.
4. Set the air intake control to the recirculated air position. However,
prolonged operation of the recircu-
lated air position will excessively
dry the air. In this case, switch the
air intake control to the outside
(fresh) air position. The indicator
light on the button will turn OFF.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired,
rotate the temperature control knob
to the left-most position (MAX AC).
Then set the fan speed control knobto the highest speed.

When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the engine tem-
perature gauge closely while driv-
ing up hills or in heavy trafficwhen outside temperatures are
high. Air conditioning system
operation can cause engine over-
heating. Continue to use the blow-
er fan, but turn the air condition-ing system off if the engine tem-
perature gauge indicates engine
overheating.
Air conditioning system operation
tips
If the vehicle has been parked indirect 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 therecirculated air to the fresh outsideair position.
To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the airconditioning system with the win-
dows and sunroof closed.
Use the air conditioning system every month for a few minutes to
ensure maximum system perform-
ance. If you operate the air conditioner
excessively, the difference
between the temperature of theoutside 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 but-
ton to the position and set the
fan speed control knob to the low-est speed setting.

A solar compensation sensor is
located inside the vehicle on the
center of the dash near the front
windshield. In order to ensure

and cooling system, never block
the sensor or place anything near
the sensor while the climate con-
trol system is operating.
Manual Heating and Air Conditioning
The heating and cooling system can
be controlled manually by pushing
buttons other than the AUTO button.
In this case, the system workssequentially according to the order of
buttons selected.
When pressing any button except the
AUTO button while using automatic
operation, the functions not selected
will be controlled automatically.
1. Start the engine.
2. Set the mode to the desired posi-tion.

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 theheating and air conditioning system.
Have the climate control air filter
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAIdealer according to the maintenance
schedule. If the car is being driven in
severe conditions such as dusty or
rough roads, more frequent climatecontrol air filter inspections andchanges are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, the system should be checked at
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

For maximum windshield defrost-
ing, set the temperature control
knob to the highest temperature
setting and the fan control knob to
the highest fan speed. Select the
front defrost button on the climate
control display. After the engine
warm-up period, warm air will bedirected to the front windshield.
If warm air to the floor is desired while defrosting or defogging, set themode to the floor-defrost position.
Before driving, clear all snow and ice from the windshield, rear win-
dow, outside rear view mirrors, and
all side windows.
Clear all snow and ice from the hood and air inlet in the cowl grill to
improve heater and defroster effi-ciency and to reduce the probability
of fogging up the inside of the wind-shield.
If the engine temperature is still
cold after starting, then a brief
engine warm up period may be
required for the vented air flow tobecome warm or hot.Manual Climate Control System
To defog inside windshield
1. Select any fan speed except “0” position.
2. Select desired temperature.
3. Select the or position.
4. The outside (fresh) air will be select- ed automatically. Additionally, the air conditioning will automatically oper-ate if the mode is selected to the position.
If the air conditioning and outside(fresh) air position are not selected
automatically, press the correspon-
ding button manually.
NOTICE
Windshield heating
Do not use the or posi- tion during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The
difference between the temper-ature of the outside air and thatof the windshield could causethe outer surface of the wind-
shield to fog up, causing loss ofvisibility could cause an acci-
dent resulting in serious injury
or death. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button
to the position and fan
speed control knob or button to
a lower speed.
