Air ventilation seats

The air ventilation seats cool the front seats by blowing air through small vent holes on the surface of the seat cushions and seatbacks.

During mild weather or under conditions where air ventilation operation is not needed, keep the air ventilation seats off.

To prevent damage to the air ventilation seats:

  • Never use a solvent such as paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or petrol to clean the seats.

  • Avoid spilling liquids on the surface of the front seats and seatbacks. This may cause the air vent holes to become blocked and not to work properly.

  • Do not place materials such as plastic bags or newspapers under the seats. They may block the air intake causing the air vents not to work properly.

  • Do not change the seat covers.

  • If the air vents do not operate, restart the vehicle. If there is no change, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorised HYUNDAI dealer.

  2. Press repeatedly to raise the blower speed to low, medium, and high.

    • The button does not work when the blower speed is in high status.

    • If the air ventilation seat is positioned in high, the airflow speed increases depending on vehicle speed.

    • Use the air ventilation seat with the air conditioning on for more effective ventilation.

    • It may take 3 to 5 minutes after switch operation to feel the temperature change.

  3. Press repeatedly to lower the blower speed or turn off the function.

  • Automatic control linked to climate control settings (for driver’s seat)

    The air ventilation seat automatically controls the seat temperature depending on the ambient temperature and the set climate control temperature when the engine is running.

    To use this feature, it can be enabled from the Settings menu in the infotainment system.

    Select: Setup > Seat (or Climate) > Warmer/Ventilation > Automatic control linked to climate control settings > Seat heating/ventilation

  • The air ventilation seat defaults to the OFF position whenever the Engine Start/Stop button is pressed to the ON position. However, if the Automatic control linked to climate control settings function is on, the driver's air ventilation seat turns on and off depending on the ambient temperature and the set climate control temperature.

The infotainment system may change after software updates. For more information, refer to the manual provided in the infotainment system and the quick reference guide.
