Operation Tips
To keep dust or unpleasant fumes
from entering the vehicle through
the ventilation system, temporarily
set the air intake control to recircu-
lation mode. Return the control to
fresh mode when the unpleasant
air outside has diminished. This will
help keep the driver alert and com-
fortable.
To help prevent the inside of the
windshield from fogging, set the air
intake control to fresh mode and
fan speed to the desired position,
turn on the air conditioning system,
and adjust the temperature control
to the desired temperature.
Air conditioning
Your HYUNDAI vehicle air condition-
ing system is filled with R-134a
refrigerant.
1. Start the engine.
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.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and
temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired,
set the temperature control to the
MAX A/C position, then set the fan
speed control to the highest setting.
When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the engine tem-
perature gauge closely while driv-
ing up hills or in heavy traffic when
outside temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation
when climbing a steep grade or in
high outside ambient tempera-
tures can cause engine overheat-
ing.
Continue to use the fan, but turn
the air conditioning system off if
the engine temperature gauge
indicates engine overheating.
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 reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air con-
ditioning system with the windows
and sunroof closed.
Use the air conditioning system
every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per-
formance.
If you operate air conditioner exces-
sively, the difference between the
temperature of the outside air and
that of the windshield could cause
the outer surface of the windshield
to fog up, causing loss of visibility.
In this case, set the mode selection
knob or button to the position
and fan speed control to the lower
speed.

System Maintenance
Cabin air filter
[A] : Outside air, [B] : Recirculated air
[C] : Climate control air filter, [D] : Blower
[E] : Evaporator core, [F] : Heater core
The cabin air filter is installed behind
the glove box. It filters the dust or
other pollutants that enter the vehicle
through the heating and air condi-
tioning system.Have the cabin air filter replaced by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
according to the maintenance sched-
ule. If the vehicle is being driven in
severe conditions such as dusty or
rough roads and/or if transporting
pets or occupants smoke inside the
vehicle, then more frequent cabin air
filter inspections and changes are
required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, the system should be checked at
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and com-
pressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
reduces the performance of the air
conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
It is important that the correct
type and amount of oil and refrig-
erant is used. Otherwise, damage
to the compressor and abnormal
system operation may occur. To
prevent damage, the air condition-
ing system in your vehicle should
only be serviced by trained and
certified technicians.

Air Conditioning refrigerant label
You can find out which air condition-
ing refrigerant is applied to your vehi-
cle on the label located in front of
engine compartment.Each symbols and specification on
the air conditioning refrigerant label
is represented as below:
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of compressor lubri-
cant
4. Caution
5. Service manual Vehicles equipped with R-134a
Since the refrigerant
is operated at very
high pressure, the air
conditioning system
should only be serv-
iced by trained and certified
technicians.
All refrigerants should be
reclaimed with proper equip-
ment.
Venting refrigerants directly to
the atmosphere is harmful to
individuals and environment.
Failure to heed these warnings
can lead to serious injuries.
