Air conditioning
All HYUNDAI Air Conditioning
Systems are filled with environmen-
tally friendly R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the vehicle.
2. Push the air conditioning button.
3. Set the mode to the Face Levelmode.
4. Set the air intake control to the recirculated air position. However,
prolonged operation of the recircu-
lated air position will excessively
dry the air. In this case, change theair position.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired,
set the temperature control to the
extreme left position then set the fanspeed control to the highest speed.
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 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 airconditioning 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 airand 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 lower speed.

For maximum defrosting, set the
temperature control to the extreme
right/hot position and the fan speedcontrol to the highest speed.
If warm air to the floor is desired while defrosting or defogging, set themode 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.To Defog Inside Windshield
1. Select desired fan speed.
2. Select desired temperature.
3. Press the defroster button ( ).
4. The outside (fresh) air position will be selected automatically.
If the outside (fresh) air position is
not selected automatically, adjust the
corresponding button manually.
If the position is selected, lower
fan speed is adjusted to a higher fanspeed.

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 thatof the windshield could causethe outer surface of the wind-
shield to fog up, causing loss ofvisibility could cause an acci-dent resulting in serious injur or
death. In this case, set the mode
selection button to the posi-
tion and fan speed control knob
or button to a lower speed.

The system detects lane
markers and controls the
steering wheel by a front view
camera, therefore, if the lane
markers are hard to detect,
the system may not work
properly.
Please refer to "Limitations of the System".
Do not remove or damage the
related parts of LKA system.
You may not hear a warning sound of LKA system if the
audio volume is high.
Do not place objects on the
dashboard that reflects light
such as mirrors, white paper,
etc. This may prevent LKA
system from functioning
properly.
When the lane markers are
hard to detect, please refer to"Driver's Attention".(Continued)
(Continued)
Always have your hands on the steering wheel while LKA
system is activated. If you
continue to drive with yourhands off the steering wheel
after the "Keep hands onsteering wheel" warning mes-
sage appears, the system will
stop controlling the steeringwheel.
The steering wheel is not con-
tinuously controlled so if the
vehicle speed is at a higher
rate when leaving a lane the
vehicle may not be controlled
by the system. The driver
must always follow the speedlimit when using the system.
If you attach objects to the
steering wheel, the system
may not assist steering or the
hands off alarm may not work
properly.
When you tow a trailer, make
sure that you turn off LKAsystem.
(Continued)
Do not disassemble LKA sys-
tem camera temporarily to
tint the window or attach anytypes of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble the
camera and assemble it again,
we recommend that you take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
system checked for calibra-tion.
When you replace the wind-
shield glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.

Driving your vehicle
The severe weather conditions of
winter quickly wear out tires and
cause other problems. To minimize
winter driving problems, you should
take the following suggestions:
Snow or Icy Conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding,
rapid acceleration, sudden brake
applications, and sharp turns are
potentially very hazardous practices.
During deceleration use the paddle
shifter (left side lever) to increase
regenerative braking. However, avoid
increasing the regenerative braking
level suddenly. Sudden change of the
regenerative braking level on snowy
or icy roads may cause the vehicle to
skid and may cause loss of vehiclecontrol leading to an accident.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tow straps or chains, a
flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a
shovel, jumper cables, a window
scraper, gloves, ground cloth, cover-
alls, a blanket, etc.
Snow tires
If you mount snow tires on your vehi-
cle, make sure to use radial tires of
the same size and load range as the
original tires. Mount snow tires on all
four wheels to balance your vehicle’s
handling in all weather conditions.
The traction provided by snow tires
on dry roads may not be as high as
your vehicle's original equipment
tires. Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.Information
Do not install studded tires without
first checking local, country and
municipal regulations for possible
restrictions against their use.
Winter Precautions
Change to "winter weight" oil if necessary
In some climates it is recommended
that a lower viscosity "winter weight"
oil be used during cold weather.
See chapter 8 for recommendations.
If you aren't sure what weight oil you
should use, consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
i
WW IINN TTEERR DD RRIIVV IINN GG
Snow tires should be equivalent
in size and type to the vehicle's
standard tires. Otherwise, the
safety and handling of your
vehicle may be adversely affect-ed.
