Off Season Maintenance
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.

Checking the Refrigerant
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.
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys-
tem for extended periods of time
with a low refrigerant level may
damage the compressor.
