Heating and Air Conditioning
1. Start the engine.
2. Set the mode to the desired position.
To improve the effectiveness of
heating and cooling, select the mode
according to the following:
- Heating:
- Cooling:
3. Set the temperature control to the
desired position.
4. Set the air intake control to fresh
mode or recirculation mode position.
5. Set the fan speed control to the
desired speed.
6. If air conditioning is desired, turn the
air conditioning system on.
When starting the vehicle in cold
weather a more efficient way to heat
the passenger compartment is to do the
following.
- Turn off or lower the blower, right
after starting the engine.
Engine temperature is still low and
the air flow from the heater is still
cold.
- After a few minutes of engine warm
up, turn on or set the fan to a higher
level and adjust the temperature
setting to hot.

Information
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.
NOTICE
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 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.

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 the
recirculated air to the fresh outside air
position.
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.
Use the air conditioning system every
month for a few minutes to ensure
maximum system performance.
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 knob to
the position and set the fan speed
control knob to the lowest speed
setting.

Cabin air filter
OIK047401L
[A] : Outside air, [B] : Recirculated air
[C] : Cabin 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 conditioning system.
We recommend that the cabin 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,
have the system checked at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Automatic heating and air
conditioning
The Automatic Climate Control System
is controlled by setting the desired
temperature.
1. Press the AUTO button. (3)
The modes, fan speeds, air intake and
air-conditioning will be controlled
automatically by the temperature
setting you select.
2. Turn the temperature control knob
(1) to the desired temperature. If
the temperature is set to the lowest
setting (Lo), the air conditioning
system will operate continuously.
After the interior has cooled
sufficiently, adjust the knob to
a higher temperature set point
whenever possible.
To turn the automatic operation off,
select any button of the following:
- Mode selection button
- Front windshield defroster button
(Press the button one more time
to deselect the front windshield
defroster function. The ‘AUTO’ sign
will illuminate on the information

The selected function will be
controlled manually while other
functions operate automatically.
For your convenience and to improve
the effectiveness of the climate control,
use the AUTO button and set the
temperature to 72°F (22°C).

WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING
WARNING
Windshield heating
Do not use the position during
cooling operation in extremely humid
weather. 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 could cause
an accident resulting in serious injury
or death. In this case, set the mode
selection button to the position
and fan speed control knob to a lower
speed.
For maximum defrost performance,
set the temperature control to the
highest temperature setting and
the fan speed control to the highest
setting.
If warm air to the floor is desired while
defrosting or defogging, set the mode
to the floor-defrost position.
Before driving, clear all snow and ice
from the windshield, rear window,
side view mirrors, and all side
windows.
Clear all snow and ice from the
hood and air inlet in the cowl grill
to improve heater and defroster
efficiency and to reduce the
probability of fogging up the inside of
the windshield.
NOTICE
If the engine temperature is still cold
after starting, then a brief engine warm
up period may be required for the
vented air flow to become warm or hot.
Manual climate control system
To defog inside windshield
