NOTICE
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.
When using  the air  conditioning sys-
tem,  monitor the  temperature  gauge
closely  while  driving   up  hills  or  in
heavy  traffic  when outside  tempera-
tures  are high.  Air  conditioning  sys-
tem operation may cause engine over-
heating.  Continue  to  use the  blower
fan but  turn the air  conditioning sys-
tem off if the temperature gauge  indi-
cates engine overheating.
When opening the  windows in humid
weather  air conditioning  may  create
water   droplets   inside   the   vehicle.
Since  excessive   water  droplets  may
cause damage to electrical equipment,
air  conditioning  should  only  be  run
with the windows closed.

•  To  help reduce moisture  inside of  the
windows   on   rainy  or   humid   days,
decrease the humidity  inside the vehi-
cle  by  operating  the  air  conditioning
system.
•  During  air conditioning  system opera-
tion,  you  may   occasionally  notice  a
slight change  in engine  speed  as the
air   conditioning  compressor   cycles.

This  is   a  normal   system   operation     Climate control air filter
characteristic.
(if equipped)
Use the  air conditioning system  every
month only for a few minutes to ensure
maximum system performance.
When  using the  air  conditioning  sys-
tem, you  may notice  clear water  drip-
ping (or  even puddling) on the  ground
under the  passenger side of  the vehi-
cle. This is a  normal system operation
characteristic.
The  climate   control  air   filter  installed
behind  the glove  box filters  the  dust or
other pollutants  that come into  the vehi-
cle 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  accumulation on  the  inside  of
the  windshield  even  when  the  outside
(fresh) air position is selected. If this hap-
pens,  have the  climate  control  air  filter
replaced by an authorized KIA dealer.
Operating the  air  conditioning system
in the recirculated air position provides
maximum  cooling, however,  continual
operation in  this mode may  cause the
air inside the vehicle to become stale.
