In this case, the system works
sequentially according to the order of
buttons selected.
When pressing any button except the
AUTO button while using automatic
operation, the functions not selected
will be controlled automatically.
1. Start the engine.
2. Set the mode to the desired posi-
tion.To improve the effectiveness of
heating and cooling, select the
mode according to the following:
- Heating:
- Cooling:
3. Set the temperature control to the
desired position.
4. Set the air intake control to Fresh
mode.
5. Set the fan speed control to the
desired speed.
6. If air conditioning is desired, turn
the air conditioning system on.
7. Press the AUTO button in order to
convert to full automatic control of
the system.
When starting the vehicle in cold
weather using manual temperature
control, operate the system in the fol-
lowing method to improve heating.
- Turn off or lower the blower, right
after starting the engine.
- Allow the engine to warm up during
this time since the air flow from the
heater is still cold.
- After a few minutes of engine warm
up, turn on or set the fan to a high-
er level and adjust the temperature
setting to hot.
The climate control system settings
will be maintained, even when the
engine is turned OFF. However, the
climate control system settings will
be initialized when the battery has
been discharged, or when the cables
have been disconnected. In this
case, adjust the climate control sys-
tem settings again.

Air intake control
The air intake control button is used
to select either Fresh mode (outside
air) or Recirculation mode (cabin air).
Recirculation mode
When Recirculation mode
is selected, air from the
passenger compartment
will be recirculated through
the system and heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
Fresh mode
When Fresh mode is
selected, air enters the
vehicle from outside and
is heated or cooled
according to the function
selected.
Information
Operating the system primarily in
Fresh mode is recommended. Use
Recirculation mode temporarily only
when needed.
Prolonged operation of the heater in
Recirculation mode and without the
A/C ON can cause fogging of the
windshield.
In addition, prolonged use of the A/C
ON in Recirculation mode may result
in excessively dry, dehumidified air in
the cabin and may promote formation
of musty vent odor due to stagnant air.
i
OHI048340
• Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
Recirculation mode for a pro-
longed period of time may
cause drowsiness to the
occupants in the cabin. This
may lead to loss of vehicle
control which may lead to an
accident.
• Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
Recirculation mode with the
A/C OFF may allow humidity
to increase inside the cabin.
This may cause condensation
to accumulate on the wind-
shield and obscure visibility.
• Do not sleep in your vehicle or
remain parked in your vehicle
with the windows up and
either the heater or the air
conditioning ON for pro-
longed periods of time. Doing
so may increase the levels of
carbon dioxide in the cabin
which may lead to serious
injury or death.

Convenient features of your vehicle
When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the engine tem-
perature gauge closely while driv-
ing up hills or in heavy traffic when
outside temperatures are high. Air
conditioning system operation
when climbing a steep grade or in
high outside ambient temperatures
can cause engine overheating.
Continue to use the fan, but turn
the air conditioning system off if
the engine temperature gauge
indicates engine overheating.
Air conditioning system operation
tips
• If the vehicle has been parked in
direct 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 recir-
culation mode to fresh mode.
• To help reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the win-
dows and 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
excessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air
and that 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 lowest speed.
System Maintenance
Cabin air filter
[A] : Outside air, [B] : Recirculated air
[C] : Climate control air filter, [D] : Blower
[E] : Evaporator core, [F] : Heater core
The cabin air filter is installed behind
the glove box. It filters the dust or
other pollutants that enter the vehicle
through the heating and air condi-
tioning system.
Have the cabin air filter replaced by
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products according to the
maintenance schedule. If the vehicle
is being driven in severe conditions
such as dusty or rough roads and/or
if transporting pets or occupants
smoke inside the vehicle, then more
frequent cabin air filter inspections
and changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, the system should be checked at
an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products.

WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING
• For maximum defrost perform-
ance, set the temperature control
knob to the highest temperature
setting (rotated all the way to the
right) and the fan speed control to
the highest setting.
• If warm air to the floor is desired
while defrosting or defogging, set the
mode to the floor-defrost position.
• Before driving, clear all snow and
ice from the windshield, rear win-
dow, side 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 probability
of fogging up the inside of the wind-
shield.
If the engine temperature is still
cold after starting, then a brief
engine warm up period may be
required for the vented air flow to
become warm or hot.
To defog inside windshield
1. Set the fan speed to the desired
position.
2. Select desired temperature.
3. Press the defroster button ( ).
4. Fresh mode will be selected auto-
matically. Additionally, the air con-
ditioning will automatically operate
according to the detected ambient
temperature.
Check to make sure the air condi-
tioning is ON. If the air conditioning
button LED is not illuminated, press
the air conditioning (A/C) button
once to turn the air conditioner ON.
Check to make sure the air intake
control is in Fresh mode.
NOTICE
Windshield heating
Do not use the or posi-
tion during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The
difference between the temper-
ature of the outside air and that
of the windshield could cause
the outer surface of the wind-
shield to fog up, causing loss of
visibility could cause an acci-
dent resulting in serious injury
or death. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button
to the position and fan
speed control knob or button to

What to do in an emergency
6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor-
mal. Then, if coolant has been
lost, carefully add coolant to the
reservoir to bring the fluid level in
the reservoir up to the halfway
mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping
alert for further signs of overheat-
ing. If overheating happens again,
call an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products for
assistance.
Serious loss of coolant indicates a
leak in the cooling system and
should be checked as soon as
possible by an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.
NOTICE
Your vehicle is
equipped with a pres-
surized coolant
reserve tank. NEVER
remove the radiator
cap, drain plug and heater hose
connector cap (refer to the
below picture) while the engine
and radiator are hot. Hot
coolant and steam may blow
out under pressure, causing
serious injury.
Turn the engine off and wait
until the engine cools down.
Use extreme care when remov-
ing the coolant reserve tank
cap. Wrap a towel or thick rag
around it, and turn it counter-
clockwise slowly to release
some of the pressure from the
system. Step back while the
pressure is released.
When you are sure all the pres-
sure has been released, contin-
ue turning the cap counter-
clockwise to remove it.

Maintenance
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, at
the 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 reservoir
when 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, we recommend that you
see an authorized retailer of Genesis
Branded products for a cooling sys-
tem inspection.
