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
reduces the performance of the air
conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
We recommend the air conditioning
system be serviced by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.

the correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant are used.
Otherwise, it may cause dam-
age to the vehicle and personal
injury.
