The sunroof can only be opened, closed,
or tilted when the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
✽NOTICE
• In cold and wet climates, the sunroof
may not work properly due to freez-
ing conditions.
• After a vehicle is washed or in a rain-
storm be sure to wipe off any water
that is on the sunroof before operating
it.
✽NOTICE
The sunroof cannot tilt when it is in the
slide position but can be slid whilst in a
tilt position.

roof is fully opened, closed, or tilt-
ed. Damage to the motor or sys-
tem components could occur.

the outside (fresh) air position or recircu-
lated air position.
To change the air intake control position,
press the control button.Recirculated air position
With the recirculated
air position selected,
air from the passen-
ger compartment will
be drawn through

and heated or
cooled according to
the function select-
ed.
Outside (fresh) air position
With the outside
(fresh) air position
selected, air enters
the vehicle from out-
side and is heated or
cooled according to
the function selected.
✽NOTICE
Prolonged operation of the heater in the
recirculated air position (without air
conditioning selected) may cause fog-
ging of the windscreen and side windows
and the air within the passenger com-
partment may become stale.
In addition, prolonged use of the air
conditioning with the recirculated air
position selected will result in excessive-
ly dry air in the passenger compart-
ment.
ORB040070
WARNING
• Continue using the climate con-
trol system 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 sys-
tem on. It may cause serious
harm or death due to a drop in the
oxygen level and/or body temper-
ature.
• Continue using the climate con-
trol system in the recirculated air
position can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness, and loss of vehicle

Features of your vehicle
Climate control air filter
(if equipped)
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust or
other pollutants that come into the vehi-
cle 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 decrease, resulting in
moisture accumulation on the inside of
the windscreen even when the outside
(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air filter
replaced by an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽NOTICE
• Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty or rough
roads, more frequent air conditioner
filter inspections and changes are
required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer.
Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and compres-
sor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has a negative
impact on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
✽NOTICE
It is important that the correct type and
amount of oil and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, damage to the compressor
and abnormal system operation may
occur.
WARNING
The air conditioning system should
be serviced by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer. Improper service
may cause serious injury to the
person performing the service.
