With the recirculated air position selected, airfrom the passenger
compartment will be
drawn through the heat-ing system and heatedor cooled according tothe function selected.
Outside (fresh) air position
With the outside (fresh)air position selected, air
enters the vehicle fromoutside and is heated or
cooled according to the function selected. Information
Using the system in the fresh air posi-
tion is recommended.
Prolonged operation of the heater in
the recirculated air position (without
air conditioning selected) can cause
fogging of the windshield and side
windows and the air within the pas-
senger compartment will become
stale.
In addition, prolonged use of the air
conditioning with the recirculated air
position selected will result in exces-
sively dry air in the passenger com-
partment.

■ Type A
■Type B
Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
the recirculated air position
can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness, that may cause
loss of vehicle control result-
ing 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
control system operation in
the recirculated 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
system on. It may cause seri-
ous injury or death due to a
drop in the oxygen level
and/or body temperature.

Air conditioning system operation tips
If the vehicle has been parked indirect sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
After sufficient cooling has been achieved, switch back from therecirculated air to the fresh outsideair position.
To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air con-
ditioning system with the windowsand sunroof closed.
Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per-
formance.
If you operate air conditioner exces- sively, the difference between the
temperature of the outside air andthat of the windshield could cause
the outer surface 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 lowerspeed.
System Maintenance
Climate control air filter
This filter is installed behind the
glove box. It filters the dust or other
pollutants that enter the vehiclethrough the heating and air condi-tioning system.
Have the climate control air filter be
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAIdealer according to the maintenance
schedule. If the vehicle is being driv-
en in severe conditions such as
dusty or rough roads, more frequentair conditioner filter inspections andchanges are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, the system should be checked at
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
reduces the performance of the airconditioning 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 refrig-
erant is used. Otherwise, damageto the compressor and abnormal
system operation may occur.

The actual Air Conditioning refriger-
ant label in the vehicle may differ
from the illustration. Each symbols and specification on
air conditioning refrigerant label
means as below :
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of Compressorlubricant
Refer to chapter 8 for more detail
location of the air conditioning refrig-
erant label. For maximum defrosting, set the
temperature control to the extreme
right/hot position and the fan speedcontrol to the highest speed.

The high-pressure cooling system
has a reservoir filled with year-round
antifreeze coolant. The reservoir is
filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, atthe beginning of the winter season
and before traveling to a colder cli-
mate.Checking the Engine Coolant
Level
Check the condition and connections of all cooling system hoses and
heater hoses. Replace any swollen
or deteriorated hoses. The coolant level should be filled
between the F and the L marks on
the side of the coolant reservoirwhen the engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) water to bring
the level to the F mark, but do not
overfill. If frequent additions are
required, see an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for a cooling sys-tem inspection.
Recommended engine coolant
When adding coolant, use only dis-
tilled (deionized) water for your
vehicle and never mix hard water in
the coolant filled at the factory.
An improper coolant mixture can result in severe malfunction or
engine damage.
The engine in your vehicle has alu- minum engine parts and must be
protected by an ethylene-glycolwith phosphate based coolant to
prevent corrosion and freezing.
Do not use alcohol or methanol coolant or mix them with the spec-ified coolant.
