normal characteristic of system

䳜 Operating the air conditioning
system in the recirculated air
position provides maximum cool

ing; however, continual operation
in this mode may cause the air
inside the vehicle to become stale.

occasionally notice a misty air
flow because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal

Climate control air filter
The climate control air filter
installed behind the glove box filters
the dust or other pollutants that
come into the vehicle from the out
-
side through the heating and air
conditioning system.
A: Outside air
B: Recirculated air
C: Climate control air filter
D: Blower
E: Evaporator core
F: Heater core
If dust or other pollutants accumu
-
late in the filter over a period of
time, the air flow from the air vents
may decrease. This leads to mois
-
ture accumulating on the inside of
the windshield even when the out
-
side (fresh) air position is selected. If
this happens, have the climate con
-
trol air filter replaced by an autho
-
rized Kia dealer.
䳜 Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule. If the
vehicle is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty or rough
roads, more frequent air condi
-
tioner filter inspections and
changes are required.
䳜 When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, we recommend that
the system be inspected by an
authorized Kia dealer/service
partner.
