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 cli-
mate control air filter inspections
and changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative influence on the air
conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Air Conditioning refrigerant
label
The actual Air Conditioning refriger-
ant label in the vehicle may differ
from the illustration.
Each symbols and specification on
air conditioning refrigerant label
means as below ;
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of Compressor lubri-
cant
Refer to chapter 8 for more detail
location of air conditioning refrigerant
label.
WARNING
Because the refriger-
ant is at very high
pressure, the air con-
ditioning system
should only be serv-
iced by trained and certified
technicians. It is important that
the correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant is used, oth-
erwise damage to the vehicle
and personal injury may occur.OHG045533N

have a malfunction with the ESC
system. Have your vehicle checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
as soon as possible.When operating
When the ESC is in opera-
tion, the ESC indicator light
blinks:
brakes under conditions
which may lock the
wheels, you may hear
sounds from the brakes, or
feel a corresponding sen-
sation in the brake pedal.
This is normal and it
means your ESC is active.
the engine may not
respond to the accelerator
as it does under routine
conditions.
in use when the ESC acti-
vates, the cruise control
automatically disengages.
The Cruise Control can be
reengaged when the road
conditions allow. See
“Cruise Control System”
later in this chapter.WARNING
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions or too quickly when
cornering. The ESC system will
not prevent accidents. Excessive
speed in turns, abrupt maneu-
vers, and hydroplaning on wet
surfaces can result in severe
accidents.
