Air Ventilation Seats

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

When the operation of the air ventilation seat 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 gasoline 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 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 to not work properly.

  • Do not change the seat covers. It may damage the air ventilation seat.

  • If the air vents do not operate, restart the vehicle. If there is no change, have your vehicle inspected by an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded products.

Front air ventilation seats

While the engine is running, touch the air ventilation icon to cool the driver's seat or front passenger's seat on the climate control information screen.

  • Touch the air ventilation icon repeatedly to cycle though the airflow speeds from high to medium, low, and off.

  • Link to Climate Settings for Auto-Adjustment (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 > Vehicle > Seat (or Climate) > Warmer/Ventilation Features > Link to Climate Settings for Auto-Adjustment > Driver Seat Warmer/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 Link to Climate Settings for Auto-Adjustment feature 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 infotainment system manual.
