Air conditioning 

All Kia Air Conditioning Systems are
filled with environmentally friendly 
R-134a refrigerant which is not dam-
aging to the ozone layer.

ditioning button.

2. Set the mode to the 

position.

3. Set the air intake control to the

outside air or recirculated air posi-
tion.

4. Set the temperature control to the

desired position.

5. Set the fan speed control to the

desired speed.

6. Adjust the fan speed control and

temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.

•   If warmer air is desired at floor

level for bi-level operation, set the
mode to the 

position and

adjust the temperature control to
maintain maximum comfort.

•   When 

maximum 

cooling 

is

desired, set the temperature con-
trol to the minimum (Lo) and set

NOTICE

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
overheating. Continue to use the
blower fan but turn the air condi-
tioning system off if the temperature
gauge indicates engine overheating.

Air conditioning system oper-

ation 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.

• To help reduce moisture inside of

windows on rainy humid days,
decrease the humidity inside the
vehicle by operating the air condi-
tioning system.

• During air conditioning system

operation, you may occasionally
notice a slight change in engine
speed at idle as the air condition-
ing compressor cycles on. This is a
normal system operating charac-
teristic.

• Use the air conditioning system

every month if only for a few min-
utes to ensure maximum system
performance.

• When using the air conditioning

system, you may notice clear water
dripping (or even pudding) on the
ground  under the passenger side
of the vehicle. This is a normal sys-
tem operating characteristic.
