Instrument Panel Vents
OQX059103L
The instrument panel vent air flow can be
directed up/down or left/right using the
vent adjustment lever.
The air flow can also be CLOSED
using the vent adjustment lever. The
instrument panel air vents are the “click-
to-close” type.
To CLOSE the instrument panel vents
perform the following:
- For the driver side vents, slide the
vent adjustment lever to the left until
it clicks.

- For the passenger side vents, slide the
vent adjustment lever to the right until
it clicks.
Temperature Control (3)
OQX059102L
The temperature will increase by turning
the knob to the right.
The temperature will decrease by turning
the knob to the left.
Air Intake Control (4)
OQXI049309
The air intake control button is used to
select either Fresh mode (outside air) or
Recirculation mode (cabin air).
Recirculation mode
When Recirculation mode
is selected, air from the
passenger compartment will
be recirculated through the
system and heated or cooled
according to the function
selected.
Fresh mode
When Fresh mode is selected,
air enters the vehicle from
outside and is heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
Information
Using the system primarily in Fresh mode
and Recirculation mode only when needed
is recommended for best results.
Prolonged operation of the heater in
Recirculation mode and without the A/C
ON can cause fogging of the windshield.
In addition, prolonged use of the A/C
ON in Recirculation mode may result in
excessively dry, dehumidified air in the
cabin.

Convenience Features5-52
WARNING

[ Continued use of the climate control
system operation in Recirculation
mode for a prolonged period of
time may cause drowsiness to the
occupants in the cabin. This may lead
to loss of vehicle control which may
lead to an accident.

[ Continued use of the climate control
system operation in Recirculation
mode with the A/C OFF may allow
humidity to increase inside the
cabin. This may cause condensation
to accumulate on the windshield and
obscure visibility.

[ Do not sleep in your vehicle or
remain parked in your vehicle with
the windows up and either the
heater or the air conditioning ON for
prolonged periods of time. Doing so
may increase the levels of carbon
dioxide in the cabin which may lead
to serious injury or death.
Fan Speed Control (2)
OQXI049310
Turn the knob to the right to increase
the fan speed and airflow. Turn the knob
to the left to decrease fan speed and
airflow.
Setting the fan speed control knob to the
“0” position turns off the fan.
NOTICE
Operating the fan speed when the
ignition switch is in the ON position
could cause the battery to discharge.
Operate the fan speed when the engine
is running.

before it enters into the cabin.
If the windshield fogs up, select the Floor
& Defrost
mode or press the Front
Defrost mode.
Operation Tips

[ T
o keep dust or unpleasant fumes
from entering the vehicle through the
ventilation system, temporarily set
the air intake control to recirculation
mode. Return the control to Fresh
mode when the unpleasant air outside
has diminished. This will help keep the
driver alert and comfortable.

[ To help prevent the inside of the
windshield from fogging, set the air
intake control to fresh mode and fan
speed to the desired position, turn
on the air conditioning system, and
adjust the temperature control to the
desired temperature.
Air Conditioning
Your HYUNDAI vehicle air conditioning
system is filled with R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the engine.
2. Press the air conditioning button.
3. Set the mode to the Face Level

mode.
4. Set the air intake control to Recirculation mode temporarily to
allow the cabin to cool quickly. When
the desired temperature in the cabin
is reached, change the air intake
control back to Fresh mode.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired, set
the temperature control to the MAX A/C
position, then set the fan speed control
to the highest setting.
NOTICE
When using the air conditioning system,
monitor the engine temperature gauge
closely while driving up hills or in heavy
traffic when outside temperatures are
high. Air conditioning system operation
when climbing a steep grade or in high
outside ambient temperatures can
cause engine overheating.
Continue to use the fan, but turn the air
conditioning system off if the engine
temperature gauge indicates engine
overheating.

Convenience Features5-54
Air conditioning system operation tips

[ If the v
ehicle 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 the
recirculated air to the fresh outside air
position.

[ To help reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the windows
and sunroof closed.

[ Use the air conditioning system
every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system
performance.

[ If you operate air conditioner
excessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air and
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.
System Maintenance
Cabin Air Filter
OIK047401L[A] : Outside air, [B] : Recirculated air
[C] : Cabin air filter, [D] : Blower
[E] : Evaporator core, [F] : Heater core
The cabin air filter is installed behind
the glove box. It filters the dust or other
pollutants that enter the vehicle through
the heating and air conditioning system.
Have the cabin air filter replaced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer according to
the maintenance schedule. If the vehicle
is being driven in severe conditions such
as dusty or rough roads, more frequent
cabin air filter inspections and changes
are required.
If 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 conditioning
is reduced. Overfilling also reduces the
performance of the air conditioning
system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

05
5-55
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. To prevent damage, the air
conditioning system in your vehicle
should only be serviced by trained and
certified technicians.
WARNING
Vehicles equipped with R-134a
Since the refrigerant is
operated at very high
pressure, the air conditioning
system should only be
serviced by trained and
certified technicians.
All refrigerants should be reclaimed
with proper equipment.
Venting refrigerants directly to the
atmosphere is harmful to individuals
and environment. Failure to heed these
warnings can lead to serious injuries.
