Convenience Features

5-106

Information

Using the system in the fresh air position is
recommended.

Prolonged operation of the heater in the
recirculated air position (without air
conditioning selected) can cause fogging of
the windshield and side windows and the
air within the passenger compartment will
become stale.

In addition, prolonged use of the air
conditioning with the recirculated air
position selected will result in excessively
dry air in the passenger compartment.

WARNING

Continued climate control system

operation in the recirculated air

position 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. It

may cause serious harm or death due

to a drop in the oxygen level and/or

body temperature.

Continued climate control system

operation in the recirculated air

position can cause drowsiness

or sleepiness, and loss of vehicle

control. Set the air intake control

to the outside (fresh) air position as

much as possible while driving.

Operation Tips

To keep dust or unpleasant fumes

from entering the vehicle through the

ventilation system, temporarily set the

air intake control to the recirculated

air position. Be sure to return the

control to the fresh air position when

the irritation has passed to keep fresh

air in the vehicle. This will help keep

the driver alert and comfortable.

To prevent interior fog on the

windshield, set the air intake control

to the fresh air position and fan speed

to the desired position, turn on the air

conditioning system, and adjust the

Air conditioning

HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems are

filled with R-1234yf refrigerant.
1. Start the engine. Push the air

conditioning button.

2. Set the mode to the

position.

3. Set the air intake control to the

outside air or recirculated air position.

4. Adjust the fan speed control and

temperature control to maintain

maximum comfort.

NOTICE

When using the air conditioning system,

monitor the temperature gauge closely

while driving up hills or in heavy traffic

when outside temperatures are high.

Air conditioning system operation may

cause engine overheating. Continue to

use the fan but turn the air conditioning

system off if the temperature gauge

indicates engine overheating.

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 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 for a few minutes to ensure

maximum system performance.

If you operate the 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 button to

the

position and set the fan speed

control knob to the lowest speed

setting.

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

climate control filter inspections and

changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreases,

the system should be checked at an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Air Conditioning Performance and

Maintenance at Your HYUNDAI

Dealer

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.

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.

NOTICE

The refrigerant system should only

be serviced by trained and certified

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 be repaired

or replaced with one removed from

a used or salvaged vehicle and new

replacement MAC evaporators shall

be certified (and labeled) as meeting

SAE Standard J2842.

Convenience Features

5-112

WARNING

Vehicles equipped with R-1234yf

Since the refrigerant is

mildly flammable and

operated at high pressure,

the air conditioning system

should only be serviced

by trained and certified

technicians. It is important

that the correct type and

amount of oil and refrigerant

are used.

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.

WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING

WARNING

Windshield heating
Do not use the

position during

cooling operation in extremely humid

weather. 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 could cause

an accident resulting in serious injury

or death. In this case, set the mode

selection button to the

position

and fan speed control knob to a lower

speed.

For maximum defrost performance,

set the temperature control to the

highest temperature setting and

the fan speed control to the highest

setting.

If warm air to the floor is desired while

defrosting or defogging, set the mode

to the floor-defrost position.

Before driving, clear all snow and ice

from the windshield, rear window,

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

efficiency and to reduce the

probability of fogging up the inside of

the windshield.

NOTICE

If the engine temperature is still cold

after starting, then a brief engine warm

up period may be required for the

vented air flow to become warm or hot.
