Off Season Maintenance
Ensure that the condenser is periodi-
cally inspected and that accumula-
tions of dirt, dead insects and leaves
etc, are removed to ensure that the
efficiency of the system is not im-
paired. Care must be exercised to
ensure that the condenser fins are
not damaged during cleaning.
1. Start the engine and run at idle for
several minutes with the refrigera-
tion system running at the coldest
setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash
vents is not cold, have the air con-
ditioning system inspected by your
Hyundai authorised repairer.
The air conditioning must be run for
ten minutes or so weekly during peri-
ods when the system would not nor-
mally be used to ensure that the
compressor and seals are lubricated.
If this precaution is not observed the
compressor seals may become stuck
to the compressor shaft and dam-
aged when the system is next used
resulting in a loss of refrigerant and
damage to the compressor.
!
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys-
tem for extended periods of time
with a low refrigerant level may
damage the compressor.
