Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the
button illuminates when
the recirculated air posi
tion is selected.
With the recirculated air
position selected, air from
passenger compartment
will be drawn through the
heating system and heat
ed 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.
Information
Prolonged use of the air conditioning
with the recirculated air position
selected will result in excessively dry
air in the passenger compartment. i
•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 tem
perature.

System maintenance
Climate control air filter
This filter is installed behind the glove
box. It filters the dust or other pollutants
that enter the vehicle through the heat
ing and air conditioning system.
We recommend the climate control airfilter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
maintenance schedule. If the car is being driven in severe conditions such as dusty or rough roads, more frequentair conditioner filter inspections and
changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreases,we recommend the system be checked
at an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and com
pressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a bad influence on the air condi
tioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
It is important that the correct type
and amount of oil and refrigerant is
used. Otherwise, damage to the com
pressor and abnormal system opera
tion may occur. We recommend the air conditioning
system be serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.i

Windshield defrosting and defog
ging
• For maximum defrosting, set thetemperature control to the extreme
right/hot position and the fan speed
control to the highest speed.
• If warm air to the floor is desired while defrosting or defogging, set
the mode to the floordefrost position.
• Before driving, clear all snow and ice from the windshield, rear win
dow, outside rear view mirrors, and
all side windows.
• Clear all snow and ice from the hood and air inlet at the buttom of
the windshield.
• 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
1. Select desired fan speed.
2. Select desired temperature.
3. Select the or position.
4. The outside (fresh) air will be select ed automatically. Additionally, the air

If the air conditioning and outside
(fresh) air position are not selected
automatically, press the correspon
ding button manually.

during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The dif
ference 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. Set
the mode selection to the
position and fan speed control to a
lower speed.

Auto defogging system
(only for automatic climate
control system, if equipped)
Auto defogging reduces the possibility
of fogging up the inside of the wind
shield by automatically sensing the
moisture of inside the windshield.
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 higher level 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 shield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward the windshield
If the air conditioning is off or recircu
lated air position is manually selected
while Auto Defogging System is ON,
the Auto Defogging System Indicator
will blink 3 times to signal that the
manual operation has been canceled.
To cancel or reset the Auto Defogging
System
Press the front windshield defroster
button for 3 seconds when the ignition
switch is in the ON position. When the
Auto Defogging System is canceled,
ADS OFF symbol will blink 3 times
and the ADS OFF will be displayed on
the climate control information screen.
When the Auto Defogging System is
reset, ADS OFF symbol will blink 6
times without a signal.
Information
• When the air conditioning is turned on by Auto defogging system, if you
try to turn off the air conditioning, the
indicator will blink 3 times and the air
conditioning will not be turned off.
• For efficiency, do not select recircu lated air position while Auto defog
ging system is operating.
Do not remove the sensor cover
located on the upper end of the driv
er side windshield glass.
Damage to system parts could occur
and may not be covered by your
