✽✽ NOTICE
Your vehicle is filled with R-134a or R-
1234yf according to the regulation in
your country at the time of production.
You can find out which air conditioning
refrigerant is applied to your vehicle on
the label located inside of the hood.
Refer to chapter 8 for the location of the
air conditioning refrigerant label. ✽
✽
NOTICE
When using the air conditioning sys- tem, monitor the temperature gauge
closely while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when outside tempera-
tures are high. Air conditioning sys-
tem operation may cause engine over-
heating. Continue to use the blower
fan but turn the air conditioning sys-
tem off if the temperature gauge indi-
cates engine overheating.
When opening the windows in humid weather air conditioning may create
water droplets inside the vehicle.
Since excessive water droplets may
cause damage to electrical equipment,
air conditioning should only be used
with the windows closed.
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.
To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid days,
decrease the humidity inside the vehi-
cle by operating the air conditioningsystem.
CAUTION
The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained andcertified technicians to insure
proper and safe operation.
The refrigerant system should be serviced in a well-ventilated place.
The air conditioning evaporator (cooling coil) shall never berepaired or replaced with one
removed from a used or salvagedvehicle and new replacement MAC
evaporators shall be certified (andlabeled) as meeting SAE Standard
J2842.

Features of your vehicle
During air conditioning system opera-tion, you may occasionally notice a slight change in engine speed as the
air conditioning compressor cycles.
This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes to ensure
maximum system performance.
When using the air conditioning sys- tem, you may notice clear water drip-
ping (or even puddling) on the ground
under the passenger side of the vehi-
cle. This is a normal system operation
characteristic.
Operating the air conditioning system in the recirculated air position provides
maximum cooling, however, continual
operation in this mode may cause the
air inside the vehicle to become stale.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and humid air
intake. This is a normal system opera-
tion characteristics. Climate control air filter (if equipped) The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust or
other pollutants that come into the vehi-cle 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 accumulation on the inside of
the windshield even when the outside
(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, we recommend that the climate
control air filter be replaced by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.✽✽
NOTICE
Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty, rough roads,
more frequent climate control air fil-
ter inspections and changes are
required.
When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Air Conditioning refrigerant label (if equipped)
The actual Air Conditioning refrigerant
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 Compressor lubricant You can find out which air conditioning
refrigerant is applied to your vehicle onthe label located inside of the hood.
Refer to chapter 8 for the location of the
air conditioning refrigerant label.
Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and compres-sor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning is
reduced. Overfilling also has a negativeinfluence on the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽✽ NOTICE
It is important that the correct type and
amount of oil and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, damage to the compressor
and abnormal system operation may
occur.
WARNING
Improper service may cause seri-
ous injury to the person performing
the service. For more detailed infor-
mation, we recommend that you
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING - Vehicles
equipped with R-134a
Because the refrigerant
is at very high pressure,the air conditioning sys-
tem should only be
serviced by trained and
certified technicians. It is importantthat the correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, it may cause damage to
the vehicle and personal injury.
WARNING - Vehicles
equipped with R-1234yf
Because the refrigerant
is mildly inflammable at
very high pressure, theair conditioning systemshould only be serviced
by trained and certified
technicians. It is impor-tant that the correcttype and amount of oil
and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, it may cause damage to
the vehicle and personal injury.
