2. Press the air conditioning button.
3. Select the Face Level mode.
4. Set the air intake control to
Recirculation mode temporarily to
allow the cabin to cool quickly.
When the desired temperature in
the cabin is reached, change the
air intake control back to Fresh
mode.

temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired,

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.
After sufficient cooling has been
achieved, switch back from recircu-
lation mode to fresh mode.
To help decrease the humidity
inside the vehicle on rainy or humid
days, operate the air conditioning
system with the windows and sun-
roof closed. It is useful to operate the air condi-
tioning system periodically through-
out the year. Turn on the A/C sys-
tem at least once a month for a few
minutes to maintain system pres-
sure and help optimize A/C per-
formance.
Note that if you operate the air con-
ditioner to cool your vehicle with
the mode set to or when
the outside relative humidity is
high, moisture may collect on the
outer surface of the windshield
glass causing the windshield to fog
up on the outside and limit your
visibility.
If this occurs, use the windshield
wipers to clear the glass. In addi-
tion, change the mode selection
knob or button on the climate con-
trol system to the mode to
redirect cooling air away from the
windshield.

Power Outlet
The power outlet is designed to pro-
vide power for 12V accessories or
other devices designed to operate
with vehicle electrical systems. The
devices should draw less than 180 W
with the vehicle in the ready ( )
mode.To prevent damage to the Power
Outlets :
Use the power outlet only when
the vehicle is in the ready ()
mode and remove the accessory
plug after use. Using the acces-
sory plug for prolonged periods
of time with the engine off could
cause the battery to discharge.
Only use 12V electric acces-
sories which are less than 180 W
in electric capacity.
Adjust the air-conditioner or
heater to the lowest operating
level when using the power outlet.
Close the cover when not in use.
Some electronic devices can
cause electronic interference
when plugged into a vehicle's
power outlet. These devices may
cause excessive audio static
and malfunctions in other elec-
tronic systems or devices used
in your vehicle. Push the plug in as far as it will
go. If good contact is not made,
the plug may overheat and the
fuse may open.
Plug in battery equipped electri-
cal/electronic devices with
reverse current protection. The
current from the battery may
flow into the vehicle's electri-
cal/electronic system and cause
system malfunction.
NOTICE
Avoid electrical shocks. Do not
place your fingers or foreign
objects (pin, etc.) into a power
outlet or touch the power outlet
with a wet hand.

Checking the Brake Fluid
Level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake fluid, clean the
area around the reservoir cap thor-
oughly to prevent brake fluid contam-
ination.If the level is low, add the specified
brake fluid to the MAX level. The level
will fall with accumulated mileage.
This is a normal condition associated
with the wear of the brake linings. If
the fluid level is excessively low, have
the brake system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Do not allow brake fluid to con-
tact the vehicle’s body paint, as
paint damage will result.
Brake fluid, which has been
exposed to open air for an
extended time should NEVER be
used as its quality cannot be
guaranteed. It should be dis-
posed of properly.
Do not use the wrong kind of
brake fluid. A few drops of min-
eral based oil, such as engine
oil, in your brake system can
damage brake system parts.
Information
Use only the specified brake fluid
(refer to "Recommended Lubricants
and Capacities" in chapter 8).
i
NOTICE
If the brake system requires fre-
quent additions of fluid this
could indicate a leak in the
brake system. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Do not allow brake fluid to come
in contact with your eyes. If
brake fluid comes in contact
with your eyes, flush your eyes
with clean water for at least 15
minutes and get immediate
medical attention.
