WARNING
•Continue using the climate controlsystem in the recirculated air posi‐tion may allow humidity to in‐crease inside the vehicle whichmay fog the glass and obscure vis‐ibility.
•Do not sleep in a vehicle with theair conditioning or heating systemon. It may cause serious harm ordeath due to a drop in the oxygenlevel and/or body temperature.
•Continue using the climate controlsystem in the recirculated air posi‐tion can cause drowsiness orsleepiness, and loss of vehicle con‐trol. Set the air intake control tothe outside (fresh) air position asmuch as possible while driving.
Fan speed control
The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for fan operation.
The fan speed control knob allows you to control the fan speed of the air flow‐
ing from the ventilation system. To
change the fan speed, turn the knob to
the right for higher speed or left for lower speed.

Climate control air filter (if
equipped)
A : Outside air
B : Recirculated air
C : Climate control air filterD : Blower
E : Evaporator core
F : Heater core
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust or other pollutants that come into the ve‐
hicle 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 de‐
crease, resulting in moisture accumula‐ tion on the inside of the windshield
even when the outside (fresh) air posi‐
tion is selected. If this happens, have the climate control air filter replaced by
a professional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/ service partner.
NOTICE
•Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in se‐
vere conditions such as dusty or
rough roads, more frequent air
conditioner filter inspections and
changes are required.
•When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, have the system
checked by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
