An auto-calibrating dual mode UV-C disinfection system for the cleaning of automotive cabin air and surfaces includes one or more UV-C light sources operating to clean cabin air in a first mode and operating to clean interior surfaces in a second mode. Sensor(s) operate to auto-calibrating the at least one UV-C light source by determining distance of at least one interior surface. A controller determines an intensity and duration of the light source(s) based upon distance of that at least one interior surface from the UV-C light source.
