Air intake control
This button is used to select the outside
(fresh) air position or recirculated air
position.
Recirculated air position
With the recirculated air position selected, air from
the passenger compart-
ment will be drawn through
the heating system and
heated or cooled according
to the function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position
With the outside (fresh) air position selected, air
enters the vehicle from out-

Fan speed control
The fan speed can be set to the desired
speed by pushing the fan speed control
button.
The higher the fan speed is, the more air
is delivered.
Pressing the OFF button turns off the
fan.
Information
For better sound quality, fan speed may
automatically slow down for a couple of
minutes when you activate voice recogni-
tion or hands free.
Air conditioning
Push the A/C button to manually turn the
system on (indicator light will illuminate)
and off.
i
Continued use of the climate con-
trol system operation in the recir-
culated 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 con-
trol system operation in the recir-
culated 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 the
air conditioning or heating sys-
tem on. It may cause serious
injury or death due to a drop in
the oxygen level and/or body
temperature.

Return the control to the fresh air posi-
tion when the irritation has passed.
This will help keep the driver alert and
comfortable.

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 heating
and air conditioning system.
Have the climate control air filter
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 frequent air conditioner filter
inspections and changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreases,
the system should be checked at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air conditioner refrigerant andcompressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has a negative
influence on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
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. The air conditioning system should be
serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

serviced by trained and
certified technicians. It is important
that the correct type and amount of

wise damage to the vehicle and
personal injury may occur.

Auto Defogging System (Only
for Automatic Climate Control
System, if equipped)
Auto defogging reduces the possibility of
fogging up the inside of the windshield 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 oper-
ate normally, when the outside tempera-
ture is below 50 °F (-10 °C).When the Auto Defogging
System operates, the indica-
tor 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 : Blo wing air toward the wind-
shield
Step 4 : Increasing air flow toward the windshield
If the air conditioning is off or recirculated
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 but-
ton 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 cli-
mate 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 indica-
tor will blink 3 times and the air condi-
tioning will not be turned off.
• For efficiency, do not select recirculated air position while Auto defogging system
is operating.
• When Auto defogging mode is selected, fan speed, temperature and intake mode
which is adjusted manually are canceled
for better defogging result.
Do not remove the sensor cover locat-
ed on the upper end of the driver side
windshield glass.
Damage to system parts could occur
and may not be covered by your vehi-
cle warranty.
