Features of your vehicle66 4Operation Tips To keep dust or unpleasant fumes from
entering the car 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.
Air for the heating/cooling system is
drawn in through the grilles just ahead
of the windshield. Care should be
taken that these are not blocked by
leaves, snow, ice or other obstructions.
To prevent interior fog on the wind-
shield, set the air intake control to the
fresh air position and fan speed to the
desired position, turn on the air condi-
tioning system, and adjust temperature
control to desired temperature.
Air conditioning (if equipped) All Hyundai Air Conditioning Systems are
filled with environmentally friendly
R-134a refrigerant which is not damag-
ing to the ozone layer.
1. Start the engine. Push the air condi-
tioning button.
2. Set the mode to the position.
3. Set the air intake control to the outside
air or recirculated air position.
4. Adjust the fan speed control and tem-
perature control to maintain maximum
comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired, set
the temperature control to the extreme
left position, set the mode control to
the MAX A/C position, then set the fan
speed control to the highest speed.
✽ ✽
NOTICE• When using the air conditioning sys-
tem, monitor the temperature gauge
closely while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when outside tempera-
tures are high. Air conditioning sys-
tem operation may cause engine over-
heating. Continue to use the blower
fan but turn the air conditioning sys-
tem off if the temperature gauge indi-
cates engine overheating.
• When opening the windows in humid
weather air conditioning may create
water droplets inside the vehicle.
Since excessive water droplets may
cause damage to electrical equipment,
air conditioning should only be run
with the windows closed.

If the temperature is set to the lowest
setting LO, the air conditioning system
will operate continuously.
3. To turn the automatic operation off,
press any button except temperature
control button. If you press the mode
selection button, air-conditioning but-
ton, defrost button, air intake control
button or fan speed button, the select-
ed function will be controlled manually
while other functions operate automat-
ically.

Mode selectionThe mode selection button controls the
direction of the air flow through the venti-
lation system.
The air flow outlet port is converted as
follows:
Refer to the illustration in the “Manual cli-
mate control system”.Face-Level (B, D)
Air flow is directed toward the upper body
and face. Additionally, each outlet can be
controlled to direct the air discharged
from the outlet.
Bi-Level (B, D, C, E)
Air flow is discharged towards the face
and floor.
Floor-Level (C, E, A, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to the
floor, with a small amount of the air being
directed to the windshield and side win-
dow defroster.
Floor/Defrost-Level (A, C, E, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor
and the windshield with a small amount
directed to the side window defrosters.

Most of the air flow is directed to the
windshield with a small amount of air
directed to the side window defrosters.Instrument panel vents
If air flow control is not satisfactory, check
the instrument panel vents. The outlet
port can be opened or closed separately
using the horizontal thumbwheel. To
close the vent, rotate it left to the maxi-
mum position. To open the vent, rotate it
right to the desired position.
Also, you can adjust the direction of air
delivery from these vents using the vent
control lever as shown.
Temperature controlThe temperature will increase to the maxi-
mum HI by pushing the up button. Each
push of the button will cause the tempera-
ture to increase by 1°F/0.5°C.

connected, the temperature mode dis-
play will reset to Fahrenheit.
This is normal condition. You can switch
the temperature mode between
Fahrenheit to Centigrade as follows;
While depressing the AUTO button,
depress the OFF button for 3 seconds or
more. The display will change from
Fahrenheit to Centigrade, or from
Centigrade to Fahrenheit.

position or recirculated air position.
To change the air intake control position,
push the control button.Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the but-
ton is illuminated when the
recirculated air position is
selected.
With the recirculated air posi-
tion selected, air from pas-
senger compartment will be

system and heated or cooled
according to the function
selected.
Outside (fresh) air position
The indicator light on the but-
ton is not illumimated when
the outside (fresh) air posi-
tion is selected.

Features of your vehicle74 4✽
✽
NOTICEIt should be noted that prolonged oper-
ation of the heating in recirculated air
position will cause fogging of the wind-
shield and side windows and the air
within the passenger compartment will
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.
Air quality control (if equipped)The air inflow from outside vehicle can
be automatically controlled. Press the
button to activate the air quality control
system.
When using AQS mode, AQS(Air Quality
Control System) automatically senses
outdoor air pollutants and minimizes
them from entering the vehicle, however,
unpleasant or foul odors that might be
present may still be noticeable within the
vehicle.Exhaust gas cutoff mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside.
But if exhaust gas enters the vehicle from
the outside, the exhaust gas cutoff mode
is automatically converted from the out-
side air position to the recirculated air
position to prevent exhaust gas from
entering the vehicle.
✽ ✽
NOTICEIt should be noted that prolonged oper-
ation of the heating system in recircula-
tion mode will give rise to misting of the
windshield and side windows and the air
within the passenger compartment will
become stale. In addition, prolonged use
of the air conditioning with the recircu-
lation mode selected may result in the
air within the passenger compartment
becoming excessively dry.
WARNING
Continued climate control system
operation in the recirculated air
position may allow humidity to
increase inside 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 temperature.
Continued climate control system
operation in the reciruclated 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.
