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-
screen even when the outside (fresh)
air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, we recommend that the cli-
mate control air filter be replaced by
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
✽NOTICE
• Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the car is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty, rough
roads, more frequent climate con-
trol air filter inspections and
changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, we recommend that the
system be checked by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

Each symbols and specification on
air conditioning refrigerant label
means as below;
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of Compressor lubri-
cant
You can find out which air condition-
ing refrigerant is applied your vehicle
at the label inside the engine room.
Refer to chapter 8 for more detail
location of the air conditioning refrig-
erant label.Checking the amount of air
conditioning refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a bad influence on the air condi-
tioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
* : Your vehicle is filled with R-134a
or R-1234yf according to the reg-
ulation in your country at the time
of production. Vehicles equipped with R-134a*
Because the refriger-
ant is at very high
pressure, the air con-
ditioning system
should only be serv-
iced by trained and certified
technicians. It is important that
the correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, it may cause damage
to the vehicle and personal injury.
WARNING

the refriger-
ant is mildly
inflamma-
ble and at
very high pressure, the air condi-
tioning system should only be
serviced by trained and certified

WINDSCREEN DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING
• For maximum defrosting, set the
temperature control to the extreme
right/hot position and the fan speed
control to the highest speed.
• If warm air to the floor is desired
whilst defrosting or defogging, set
the mode to the floor-defrost posi-
tion.
• Before driving, clear all snow and
ice from the windscreen, rear win-
dow, outside rearview mirrors, and
all side windows.
• Clear all snow and ice from the bon-
net and air inlet in the cowl grill to
improve heater and defroster effi-
ciency and to reduce the probability
of fogging up the inside of the wind-
screen.To defog inside windscreen
1. Set the fan speed to the desired
position.
2. Select the desired temperature.
3. Press the defroster button ( ).
4. The air conditioning will turn on
according to the detected ambient
temperature and outside (fresh)
air position will be selected auto-
matically.
Windscreen heating
Do not use the or posi-
tion during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The
difference between the tempera-
ture of the outside air and the
windscreen could cause the
outer surface of the windscreen
to fog up, causing loss of visibil-
ity. In this case, set the mode
selection to the position and
fan speed control to the lower
speed.

temperature and outside (fresh)
air position will be selected auto-
matically.
Auto defogging system
Auto defogging reduces the possibil-
ity of fogging up the inside of the
windscreen by automatically sensing
the moisture inside the windscreen.
The auto defogging system operates
when the climate control system is on.
✽NOTICE
The auto defogging system may not
operate normally, when the outside
temperature is below -10 °C.
