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 certi-
fied (and labelled) as meeting
SAE Standard J2842. When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the temperature
gauge closely whilst driving up
hills or in heavy traffic when out-
side temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation
may cause engine overheating.
Continue to use the blower 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. As excessive water
droplets may cause damage to
electrical equipment, air condi-
tioning should only be used with
the windows closed.
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.
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 win-
dows and sunroof closed.
Use the air conditioning system
every month for a few minutes to
ensure maximum system perform-
ance.

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 on the
air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
We recommend the air conditioning
system be serviced by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.Because the refriger-
ant is at very high
pressure, the air con-
ditioning system
should only be serviced by
trained and certified technicians.
It is important that the correct
type and amount of oil and refrig-
erant is used. Otherwise, it may
cause damage to the vehicle and
personal injury.

For maximum windscreen defrost-
ing, set the temperature control
knob to the highest temperature
setting and the blower speed con-
trol knob to the highest blower
speed. Select the front defrost but-
ton on the climate control display.
After the engine warm-up period,
warm air will be directed to the
front windscreen.
If warm air to the floor is desired
whilst defrosting or defogging, set the
mode to the floor-defrost position.
Before driving, clear all snow and
ice from the windscreen, rear win-
dow, outside rear view mirrors, and
all side windows.
Clear all snow and ice from the bon-
net and air inlet in the cowl grill to
improve heater and defroster effi-
ciency and to reduce the probability
of fogging up inside of the wind-
screen.
Information
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 windscreen
1. Select any blower speed except
“0” position.

Windscreen heating
Do not use the or posi-
tion during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The
difference between the temper-
ature of the outside air and that
of the windscreen could cause
the outer surface of the wind-
screen to fog up, causing loss
of visibility. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button
to the position and blower
speed control knob or button to
lower speed.

Auto defogging system
(only for automatic climate
control system, if equipped)
Auto defogging reduces the possibil-
ity of fogging up the inside of the
windscreen by automatically sensing
the moisture on the inside of the
windscreen
The auto defogging system operates
when the heater or air conditioning is
on.
Information
The auto defogging system may not
operate normally, when the outside
temperature is below -10 °C.When the Auto Defogging
System operates, the indi-
cator will illuminate.
If high levels of moisture are sensed
in the vehicle, the Auto Defogging
System will operate in the following
order:
Step 1 : Outside air position
Step 2 :Operating the air conditioning
Step 3 : Blowing air toward the wind-
screen
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward
the windscreen
If the air conditioning is off or recircu-
lated air position is manually selected
whilst Auto Defogging System is ON,
the Auto Defogging System Indicator
will blink 3 times to signal that the
manual operation has been can-
celled.
To cancel or reset the Auto Defogging
System
Press the front windscreen defroster
button for 3 seconds when the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
When the Auto Defogging System is
cancelled, the ADS OFF symbol will
blink 3 times and ADS OFF will be
displayed on the climate control
information screen.
When the Auto Defogging System is
reset, the ADS OFF symbol will blink
6 times without a signal.
Information
• When the air conditioning is turned on
by the Auto defogging system, if you
try to turn off the air conditioning, the
indicator will blink 3 times and the air
conditioning will not turn off.
• For efficiency, do not select recircu-
lated air position whilst the Auto
defogging system is operating.
Do not remove the sensor cover
located on the top of the wind-
screen glass.
Damage to system parts could
occur and may not be covered by
your vehicle warranty.
