WARNING

[Continued climate control system
operation in the recirculated air
position may allow humidity to
increase inside the vehicle which
may fog the glass and obscure
visibility.

[ Do not sleep in a vehicle with the 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.

[ Continued climate control system
operation in the recirculated air
position can cause drowsiness
or sleepiness, and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake control
to the outside (fresh) air position as
much as possible while driving.
Fan speed control
Turn the knob to the right to increase
the fan speed and airflow. Turn the knob
to the left to decrease fan speed and
airflow.
Setting the fan speed control knob to the
“0” position turns off the fan.
NOTICE
Operating the fan speed when the
ignition switch is in the ON position
could cause the battery to discharge.
Operate the fan speed when the engine
is running.
Air conditioning (A/C) (if equipped)
Press the A/C button to turn the air
conditioning system on (indicator light
will illuminate). Press the button again to
turn the air conditioning system off.
System operation
Ventilation
1. Set the mode to the position.
2. Set the air intake control to the outside (fresh) air position.
3. Set the temperature control to the desired position.
4. Set the fan speed control to the desired speed.

Operation Tips

[ T
o help keep dust or unpleasant fumes
from entering the vehicle through the
ventilation system, temporarily set the
air intake control to the recirculated
air position. Be sure to return the
control to the fresh air 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 the fresh air position and fan speed
to the desired position, turn on the air
conditioning system, and adjust the
temperature control to the desired

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. Air conditioning system operation tips

[
If the v
ehicle 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.

CAUTION
Take the following precautions to
maintain optimal performance of the
detecting sensor:

[Never disassemble the detecting
sensor or sensor assembly, or apply
any impact on it.

[ If the detecting sensors have been
replaced or repaired, have your
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

[ Never install any accessories or
stickers on the front windshield, or
tint the front windshield.

[ Exercise extreme caution to keep the
front view camera dry.

[ Never place any reflective objects
(for example, white paper, mirror)
over the dashboard. Any light
reflection may prevent Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist from
functioning properly.

[ Do not place any objects near the
front windshield or install any
accessories on the front windshield.
It can affect the performance of the
defogging and defrosting function
of the climate control system, which
may prevent the Driver Assistance
systems from operating.

[ Do not apply license plate frame or
objects, such as a bumper sticker,
film or a bumper guard, near the
front radar cover.

[ Always keep the front radar and
cover clean and free of dirt and
debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressurized
water directly on the sensor or
sensor cover.
[
If unnecessary force has been
applied to the radar or around the
radar, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist may not properly operate
even though a warning message
does not appear on the cluster.
Have the vehicle be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

[ Use only genuine parts to repair or
replace a damaged front radar cover.
Do not apply paint to the front radar
cover.
