B670C02A-AAT Air Intake Control
This is used to select fresh outside air or recirculation inside air. FreshRecirculation
With the " " mode selected, airenters the vehicle from outside and is heated or cooled according to the otherfunctions selected. With the " " mode selected, air from within the passenger compartment isdrawn through the heating system and heated or cooled according to the other functions selected. HTB036
NOTE: It should be noted that prolonged operation of the heating system in " " mode will give rise to mistingof the windshield and side win- dows and the air within the passen- ger compartment will become stale.In addition prolonged use of the air conditioning with the " " mode selected may result in the air withinthe passenger compartment becom- ing excessively dry.B670D01TB-AAT Air Flow Control

B670B01A-AAT BI-LEVEL HEATING Your Hyundai is equipped with bi-level heating controls. This makes it pos-sible to have cooler air from the dash- board vents and warmer air from the floor outlets at the same time. To usethis feature:
o Set the air intake control to the fresh
air ( ) position.
o Set the air flow control at the bi-level ( ) position.
o Set the temperature control between
"Cool" and "Warm".
B690A01A-AAT HEATING CONTROLS For normal heating operation, set the air intake control to the fresh air ( )position and the air flow control to the floor ( ) position. For faster heating, the air intake con-trol should be set in the recirculate ( ) position. If the windows fog up, set the air flowcontrol to the defrost ( ) position and the air intake control to the fresh air ( ) position.For maximum heat, move the tem- perature control to "Warm". B720A01TB-GAT DEFROSTING/DEFOGGING
HTB045
Use the heating/ventilation system to defrost or defog the windshield: To remove interior fog on the windshield:
o Set the air intake control to the fresh air ( ) position.
o Set the air flow control to the defrost
( ) position.
o For more rapid action, turn on the air conditioning.
o Set the temperature control to the
desired position.

B740A01A-AAT AIR CONDITIONING SWITCH (If Installed)
B730A01FC-GAT Operation Tips
o To keep dust or unpleasant fumes
from entering the car through the ventilation system, temporarily set the air intake control at "Recircula- tion". Be sure to return the control to"Fresh" when the irritation has passed to keep fresh air in the ve- hicle. This will help keep the driveralert and comfortable.
o Air for the heating/cooling system is
drawn in through the grilles justahead of the windshield. Care should be taken that these are not blocked by leaves, snow, ice or other ob-structions.
o To prevent interior fog on the wind-
shield, set the air intake control tothe fresh air ( ) position and fan speed to the desired position.
To remove the frost or exterior fog on the windshield:
o Set the air intake control to the fresh
( ) position.
o Set the air flow control to the defrost ( ) position
o Set the temperature control to warm.
o Set the fan speed control to position
"3" or "4".
NOTE: When the A/C is operated continu- ously on the floor-defrost level ( ) or defrost level ( ), it may cause fog to form on the exterior wind-shield. If this occurs, set the air flow control to the face level posi- tion ( ) and fan speed control tothe low position. The air conditioning is turned on by pushing the A/C button on the heating/ air conditioning control panel.

The air filter is located in front of the evaporator unit behind the glove box. It operates to decrease pollutants fromentering the car and to filter the air. To replace the air filter, refer to the page 6-23

AIR FILTER (In Front of evapora- tor unit) (If Installed)
B740D01A-AAT Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when
you first get in, open the windows for a few minutes to expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air condi-
tioning system, keep all windowsclosed to keep hot air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy
traffic, shift to a lower gear. Thisincreases engine speed, which in turn increases the speed of the air conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air condi- tioning off to avoid the possibility ofthe engine over-heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the air conditioning is not usedregularly, run the air conditioningonce every month for a few min- utes. This will help circulate the lubricants and keep your system inpeak operating condition. Inside of a vehicle

o Replace the filter every 20,000 km (12,000 miles) or once a year. If the car is being driven in severe con- ditions such as dusty, roughroads, more frequent air filter in- spections and changes are re- quired.
o When the air flow rate is sud- denly decreased, it must bechecked at an authorized dealer.

Iron bridges
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high frequency and do not bend to followthe earth's surface. Because of this, FM broadcasts generally begin to fade at short distances from the station.Also, FM signals are easily affected by buildings, mountains, or other obstruc- tions. These can result in certain lis-tening conditions which might lead you to believe a problem exists with your radio. The following conditions arenormal and do not indicate radio trouble:
AM broadcasts can be received atgreater distances than FM broadcasts. This is because AM radio waves are transmitted at low frequency. Theselong, low frequency radio waves can follow the curvature of the earth rather than travelling straight out into theatmosphere. In addition, they curve around obstructions so that they can provide better signal coverage.
B750A02A-AAT STEREO SOUND SYSTEM How Car Audio Works
AM and FM radio signals are broad- cast from transmitter towers located around your city. They are intercepted by the radio antenna on your car. Thissignal is then received by the radio and sent to your car speakers. When a strong radio signal has reachedyour vehicle, the precise engineering of your audio system ensures high quality reproduction. However, in somecases the signal coming to your ve- hicle is not strong and clear. This can be due to factors such as the distancefrom the radio station, closeness of other strong radio stations or the pres- ence of buildings, bridges or otherlarge obstructions in the area.

o Station Swapping - As a FM signal weakens, another more powerful signal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto theclearest signal. If this occurs, select another station with a stronger sig- nal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from severaldirections can cause distortion orfluttering. This can be caused by a direct and reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from twostations with close frequencies. If this occurs, select another station until the condition has passed.
o Fading - As your car moves away
from the radio station, the signal willweaken and sound will begin to fade. When this occurs, we suggest that you select another stronger sta-tion.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or
large obstructions between thetransmitter and your radio can dis- turb the signal causing static or flut- tering noises to occur. Reducing thetreble level may lessen this effect until the disturbance clears. B750B02Y-AAT Using a cellular phone or a two- way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equipment. This doesnot mean that something is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a case, use the cellular phone at a place as faras possible from the audio equipment.
!
!
CAUTION:
When using a communication sys- tem such a cellular phone or a radio set inside the vehicle, a separate external antenna must be fitted. When a cellular phone or a radio setis used with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehicle's electrical system and ad-versely affect safe operation of the vehicle.
WARNING:
Don't use a cellular phone when you are driving, you must stop at a safe place to use a cellular phone.
