Temperature conversion
If the battery has been discharged or dis-
connected, the temperature mode dis-
play will reset to Centigrade.
This is normal condition. You can switch
the temperature mode between
Centigrade to Fahrenheit as follows:
While pressing the AUTO button, press
the OFF button for 3 seconds or more.
The display will change from Centigrade
to Fahrenheit, or from Fahrenheit to
Centigrade.
Air intake control
This is used to select outside (fresh) air position or recirculated air position.
To change the air intake control position,
push the control button.
Recirculated air positionThe indicator light on the
button illuminates when therecirculated air position isselected.
With the recirculated air position selected, air from
passenger compartment
will be drawn through theheating system and heatedor cooled according to thefunction selected. Outside (fresh) air position
The indicator light on the
button does not illuminatewhen the outside (fresh) airposition is selected. With the outside (fresh) air position selected, air enters
the vehicle from outside andis heated or cooled accord-ing to the function selected.
✽✽NOTICE
It should be noted that prolonged oper-
ation of the heating in recirculated air
position will cause fogging of the wind-
shield and side windows and the air
within the passenger compartment will
become stale.
In addition, prolonged use of the air
conditioning with the recirculated air
position selected, will result in excessive-
ly dry air in the passenger compart-
ment. OJC043072

WARNING
Continued climate control system operation in the recirculated air
position may allow humidity to
increase inside vehicle which may
fog the glass and obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in a vehicle with air conditioning or heating system on.
It may cause serious harm or death
due to a drop in the oxygen level
and/or body temperature.
Continued climate control system operation in the recirculated air
position can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness, and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake control tothe outside (fresh) air position as
much as possible while driving.

OFF mode
Push the OFF button to turn off the air cli-
mate control system. However you can
still operate the mode and air intake but-
tons as long as the ignition switch is inthe ON position.
Air conditioning (if equipped)
HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems are
filled with R-134a or R-1234yf 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.
✽✽ NOTICE
Your vehicle is filled with R-134a or R-
1234yf according to the regulation in
your country at the time of production.
You can find out which air conditioning
refrigerant is applied to your vehicle on
the label located inside of the hood.
Refer to chapter 8 for the location of the
air conditioning refrigerant label. ✽✽
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 used
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 conditioningsystem.
OJC043074
CAUTION
The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained andcertified technicians to insure
proper and safe operation.
The refrigerant system should be serviced in a well-ventilated place.
The air conditioning evaporator (cooling coil) shall never berepaired or replaced with one
removed from a used or salvaged vehicle and new replacement MAC
evaporators shall be certified (andlabeled) as meeting SAE Standard
J2842.

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. 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 vehiclefrom 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 wind-
shield even when the outside (fresh) air
position is selected. If this happens, werecommend that the climate control air fil-
ter be 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 climate control air fil-
ter inspections and changes are
required.
 When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
