If your vehicle is equipped with a
sunroof, you can slide or tilt your
sunroof with the sunroof control lever
located on the overhead console.
Type A
The sunroof can only be opened,
closed, or tilted when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
Type B
The sunroof can be operated for
approximately 30 seconds after the
ignition key is removed or turned to
the ACC or LOCK position. However,
if the front doors are opened, the
sunroof cannot be opened even with-
in the 30 seconds period.• In cold and wet climates, the sun-
roof may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• After the vehicle is washed or in a
rainstorm, be sure to wipe off any
water that is on the sunroof before
operating it.

❈ Air outlet vents for rear seat (E, F)
• The air flow of the rear outlet vents (F) is controlled by the front climate con-
trol system and delivered through the inside air duct of the floor.
• The air flow of the rear outlet vents (E, F) may be weaker than the instru-
ment panel vents for the long air duct.
• Close the rear outlet vents (F) in cold weather. The air flow of the rear out-
let vents may not be as warm during heating operation. (Use the rear out-
let vents (F) during cooling operation.)

Features of your vehicle
Air intake control
This is used to select outside (fresh)
air position or recirculated air position.
To change the air intake control posi-
tion, push the control button.
Recirculated air position
The indicator light on the
button illuminates when
the recirculated air posi-
tion is selected.
With the recirculated air position
selected, air from the passenger
compartment will be drawn through
the heating system and heated or
cooled according to the function
selected.Outside (fresh) air position
With the outside (fresh)
air position selected, air
enters the vehicle from
outside and is heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
✽NOTICE
Prolonged operation of the heater in
the recirculated air position (with-
out air conditioning selected) may
cause fogging of the windshield and
side windows and the air within the
passenger compartment may
become stale.
In addition, prolonged operation of
the air conditioning with the recir-
culated air position selected will
result in excessively dry air in the
passenger compartment.
ODM042281
WARNING
• Continued use of the climate
control system operation in the
recirculated air position with-
out A/C selected may allow
humidity to increase inside the
vehicle which may fog the
glass and obscure visibility.
• Do not sleep in a vehicle with
the air conditioning or heating
system on. This may cause
serious harm or death due to
a drop in the oxygen level
and/or body temperature.
• Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
the recirculated air position
may cause drowsiness or
sleepiness and loss of vehicle
control. Set the air intake con-
trol to the outside (fresh) air
position as much as possible
while driving.

4147
Features of your vehicle
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-
shield even when the outside (fresh)
air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air fil-
ter replaced by an authorized
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 cli-
mate control air filter inspections
and changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, the system should be
checked at an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative influence on the air
conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

WARNING
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, oth-
erwise damage to the vehicle
and personal injury may occur.
