tion seats will feel cool if the air
inside the vehicle is cool. To
increase efficiency of the air venti-
lation seats, use the air ventilation
seats with the air conditioning ON.
The air ventilation seats get cool about five minutes later after the
system is turned on.

air position or recirculated air posi-
tion.
To change the air intake control posi-
tion, push the control button.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 the passenger
compartment will be
drawn through the heat-
ing 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
outside and is heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Prolonged operation of the heater in
the recirculated air position (with-
out air conditioning selected) may
cause fogging of the windshield and
side windows and the air within the

Features of your vehicle
Operating the air conditioning sys-tem in the recirculated air position
provides maximum cooling, how-
ever, continual operation in this
mode may cause the air inside the
vehicle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.
If you operate air conditioner excessively, the difference
between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the wind-
shield could cause the outer sur-
face of the windshield to fog up,
causing loss of visibility. In this
case, set the mode selection knob
or button to the position and
fan speed control to the lower
speed.
Climate control air filter
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust
or other pollutants that come into the
vehicle 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 accu-
mulation on the inside of the wind-
shield even when the outside (fresh)
air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air fil-
ter replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in
severe conditions such as dusty,
rough roads, more frequent cli-
mate control air filter inspections
and changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

WARNING
Continued use of the climate
control system operation 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
system on. This may cause
serious harm or death due to
a drop in the oxygen level
and/or body temperature.
Continued use of the climate control system operation in
the recirculated air position
may cause drowsiness or
sleepiness and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake con-
trol to the outside (fresh) air
position as much as possible
while driving.

the mode to the floor-defrost posi-
tion.
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 in the cowl grill to
improve heater and defroster effi-
ciency and to reduce the probabili-
ty of fogging up the inside of the
windshield.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Be sure to keep the interior surface
of the windshield clean by wiping it
with a clean cloth and glass cleaner.
This will help reduce the tendency of
the glass fogging and also improve
visibility.

Auto defogging system
(if equipped)
Auto defogging reduces the probabil-
ity 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. This indicator illuminates
when the auto defogging
system senses the mois-
ture of inside the wind-
shield and operates.
If more moisture is in the vehicle, the
automated steps operate as follows:
If auto defogging does not defog the
window at step 1, outside air posi-
tion, step 2, blowing air toward the
windshield occurs.
Step 1 : Outside air position
Step 2 : Blowing air toward the wind- shield
Step 3 : Increasing air flow toward the windshield
Step 4 : Operating the air condition- ing
Step 5 : Maxim izing the air condi-
tioning The auto defogging system is auto-
matically activated when the condi-
tions are met. However, if you would
like to cancel the auto defogging sys-
tem, press the front defroster button
4 times within 2 seconds while press-
ing the AUTO button. The indicator of
the front defroster button will blink 3
times to notify you that the system is
cancelled. To use the auto defogging
system again, follow the procedures
mentioned above.
