switch is turned ON.
MIST : For a single wiping cycle, move
the lever upward (or downward)
and release it. The wipers will
operate continuously if the lever
is held in this position.
OFF : Wiper is not in operation
INT : Wiper operates intermittently at
the same wiping intervals. Use this
mode in light rain or mist. To vary
the speed setting, turn the speed
control knob.
LO : The wiper runs at a lower speed.
HI : The wiper runs at a higher speed.
i Information
If there is heavy accumulation of snow
or ice on the windshield, defrost the
windshield for about 10 minutes, or until
the snow and/or ice is removed before
using the windshield wipers, to ensure
proper operation.
If you do not remove the snow and/or ice
before using the wiper and washer, it may
damage the wiper and washer system.
Windshield washers
OTL045280ROTL045280R
In the OFF position, pull the lever gently
toward you to spray washer fluid on the
windshield and to run the wipers 1-3
cycles. The spray and wiper operation
will continue until you release the lever.
If the washer does not work, you may
need to add washer fluid to the washer
fluid reservoir.
WARNING
When the outside temperature is below
freezing, ALWAYS warm the windshield
using the defroster to prevent the
washer fluid from freezing on the
windshield and obscuring your vision
which could result in an accident and
serious injury or death.

Recirculation mode
The indicator light on the
button illuminates when
the recirculated air
position is selected.
With the recirculated air
position selected, air from
the passenger
compartment will be
drawn through the climate
control system and heated
or cooled according to the
function selected.
Fresh mode
The indicator light on the
button will turn off when
the outside (fresh) air
position is selected.
With the outside (fresh) air
position selected, air
enters the vehicle from
outside and is heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
i Information
Prolonged use of the air conditioning
with the recirculated air position selected
will result in excessively dry air in the
passenger compartment.
WARNING
• Continued use of the climate control
system operation in the recirculated
air position can cause drowsiness
or sleepiness, that may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident. Set the air intake control
to the outside (fresh) air position as
much as possible while driving.
• Continued use of the climate
control system operation in the
recirculated air position (without
the air conditioning selected) may
allow humidity to increase inside the
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.

with the temperature control knob set
to heat in order to dehumidify the air
before it enters into the cabin.
If the windshield fogs up, select the
Floor & Defrost
mode or press the
Front Defrost
mode.
Operation Tips
• To keep dust or unpleasant fumes
from entering the vehicle through the
ventilation system, temporarily set the
air intake control to the recirculation
mode. Be sure to return the control
to fresh mode position when the
irritation has passed to keep fresh air
in the vehicle. This will help keep the
driver alert and comfortable.
• To prevent interior fog on the
windshield, 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 desired
temperature.

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
recirculation 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
conditioning system with the windows
and sunroof closed.
• During air conditioning system
operation, 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
system, you may notice clear water
dripping (or even puddling) on the
ground under the passenger side of
the vehicle. This is a normal system
operation characteristic.
• If you operate the air conditioner
excessively, 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 button to
the
position and set the fan speed
control knob to the lowest speed
setting.
System maintenance
Climate control air filter
OIK047401LOIK047401L
[A] : Outside air, [B] : Recirculated air
[C] : Climate control air filter, [D] : Blower
[E] : Evaporator core, [F] : Heater core
This filter is installed behind the glove
box. It filters the dust or other pollutants
that enter the vehicle through the
heating and air conditioning system.
We recommend that the climate control
air filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
maintenance schedule. If the vehicle is
being driven in severe conditions such
as dusty or rough roads, more frequent
climate control filter inspections and
changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreases,
we recommend the system be checked
at an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
i Information
• Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
• If the car is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty, rough roads,
more frequent climate control air filter
inspections and changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Air intake control
OBI3050108OBI3050108
The air intake control button is used to
select either Fresh mode (outside air) or
Recirculation mode (cabin air).
Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the
button illuminates when
the recirculated air
position is selected.
With the recirculated air
position selected, air from
the passenger
compartment will be
drawn through the climate
control system and heated
or cooled according to the
function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position
The indicator light on the
button will turn off when
the outside (fresh) air
position is selected.
With the outside (fresh) air
position selected, air
enters the vehicle from
outside and is heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
i Information
Operating the system primarily in Fresh
mode is recommended. Use Recirculation
mode temporarily only when needed.
Prolonged operation of the heater in
Recirculation mode and without the A/C
ON can cause fogging of the windshield.
In addition, prolonged use of the A/C
ON in Recirculation mode may result in
excessively dry, dehumidified air in the
cabin and may promote formation of
musty vent odor due to stagnant air.
WARNING
• Continued use of the climate control
system operation in the recirculated
air position can cause drowsiness
or sleepiness, that may cause loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident. Set the air intake control to
the outside (fresh) mode as much as
possible while driving.
• Continued use of the climate
control system operation in the
recirculated air position (without
the air conditioning selected) may
allow humidity to increase inside the
vehicle which may fog the glass and

NOTICE
• The refrigerant system should only
be serviced by trained and certified
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 be repaired
or replaced with one removed from
a used or salvaged vehicle and new
replacement MAC evaporators shall
be certified (and labeled) as meeting
SAE Standard J2842.
i Information
• When using the air conditioning system,
monitor the temperature gauge closely
while driving up hills or in heavy traffic
when outside temperatures are high.
Air conditioning system operation may
cause engine overheating. Continue
to use the blower fan but turn the
air conditioning system off if the
temperature gauge indicates 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.
