3. Set the air intake control to theoutside air or recirculated air posi‐
tion.
4. Adjust the fan speed control and temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
CAUTION
•The refrigerant system should on‐ly be serviced by trained and certi‐fied technicians to insure properand safe operation.
•The refrigerant system should beserviced in a well-ventilated place.
•The air conditioning evaporator(cooling coil) shall never be re‐paired or replaced with one re‐moved from a used or salvagedvehicle and new replacement MACevaporators shall be certified (andlabeled) as meeting SAE StandardJ2842.
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 condi‐
tioning system operation may
cause engine overheating. Contin‐
ue to use the blower fan but turn
the air conditioning system off if
the temperature gauge indicates
engine overheating.
•When opening the windows in hu‐
mid weather air conditioning may
create water droplets inside the
vehicle. Since excessive water
droplets may cause damage to
electrical equipment, air condition‐
ing should only be used with the
windows closed.
Air conditioning system operation tips
• If the vehicle has been parked in di‐ rect sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time to let the hot air inside the vehicle es‐
cape. • To help reduce moisture inside of the
windows on rainy or humid days, de‐
crease the humidity inside the vehicle
by operating the air conditioning sys‐ tem.
• During air conditioning system opera‐ tion, 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 en‐
sure maximum system performance.
• When using the air conditioning sys‐ tem, you may notice clear waterdripping (or even puddling) on the
ground under the passenger side of
the vehicle. This is a normal system
operation characteristic.
• Operating the air conditioning system in the recirculated air position pro‐vides maximum cooling, however,
continual operation in this mode may
cause the air inside the vehicle to be‐
come stale.
• During cooling operation, you may oc‐ casionally notice a misty air flow be‐
cause of rapid cooling and humid air
intake. This is a normal system oper‐
ation characteristic.

Climate control air filter (if
equipped)
A : Outside air
B : Recirculated air
C : Climate control air filterD : Blower
E : Evaporator core
F : Heater core
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust or other pollutants that come into the ve‐
hicle from the outside through the
heating and air conditioning system. If dust or other pollutants accumulate
in the filter over a period of time, the
air flow from the air vents may de‐
crease, resulting in moisture accumula‐ tion on the inside of the windshield
even when the outside (fresh) air posi‐
tion is selected. If this happens, have the climate control air filter replaced by
a professional workshop. Kia recom‐
mends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/ service partner.
NOTICE
•Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in se‐
vere conditions such as dusty or
rough roads, more frequent air
conditioner filter inspections and
changes are required.
•When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, have the system
checked by a professional work‐
shop. Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service part‐
ner.
