Convenient 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.
System maintenance
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-
screen even when the outside (fresh)
air  position  is  selected. If  this  hap-
pens,  we  recommend  that  the  cli-
mate  control  air  filter  be  replaced  by
an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
Information 
• Replace  the  filter according  to  the
Maintenance Schedule.
If  the  vehicle  is  being  driven  in
severe  conditions  such  as  dusty,
rough  roads,  more  frequent  climate
control  air filter inspections  and
changes are required.
• When  the  air flow  rate  suddenly
decreases,  we  recommend  that  the
system be checked by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information 
It  is  important  that  the  correct  type
and  amount  of  oil  and  refrigerant  is
used.  Otherwise,  damage  to  the  com-
pressor and  abnormal  system  opera-
tion may occur.

The  emission  control  system  of  your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please  see  the  warranty
information  contained  in  the  Service
Passpor t  in  your  vehicle.
Yo u r   v e h i c l e   i s   e q u i p p e d   w i t h   a n
emission  control  system  to  meet  all
Australian  Design  Rules  (ADR)
requirements.
There  are  three  emission  control
systems which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase  emission  control  sys-
tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys-
tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is
recommended  that  you  have  your
vehicle  inspected  and  maintained  by
an  authorised  HYUNDAI  dealer  in
accordance  with  the  maintenance
schedule in this manual.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The  positive  crankcase  ventilation
system  is  employed  to  prevent  air
pollution  caused  by  blow-by  gases
being  emitted  from  the  crankcase.
This system supplies fresh filtered air
to  the  crankcase  through  the  air
intake  hose. Inside  the  crankcase,
the  fresh  air  mixes  with  blow-by
gases,  which  then  pass  through  the
PCV valve into the induction system.
For  the  Inspection  and
Maintenance Test (With Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system)
•To   p r e v e n t   t h e   v e h i c l e   f r o m
misfiring  during  dynamome-
ter testing, turn the Electronic
Stability  Control  (ESC)  sys-
tem  off  by  pressing  the  ESC
switch.
•After  dynamometer  testing  is
completed, turn  the  ESC  sys-
tem  back  on  by  pressing  the
ESC switch again.
