Your HYUNDAI should not be modified in any way. Such modifications may
adversely affect the performance, safety or durability of your HYUNDAI
and may, in addition, violate conditions of the limited warranties covering
the vehicle. Certain modifications may also be in violation of regulations
established by the Department of Transportation and other government
agencies in your country.

Your vehicle is equipped with electronic fuel injection and other electronic
components. It is possible for an improperly installed/adjusted two-way radio
or cellular telephone to adversely affect electronic systems. For this reason,
we recommend that you carefully follow the radio manufacturer’s instructions
or consult your HYUNDAI dealer for precautionary measures or special
instructions if you choose to install one of these devices.

Petrol engine
Unleaded
Your new vehicle is designed to use
only unleaded fuel having an Octane
Rating of RON (Research Octane
Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
87 or higher. (Do not use methanol
blended fuels)
Your new vehicle is designed to
obtain maximum performance with
UNLEADED FUEL, as well as mini-
mize exhaust emissions and spark
plug fouling.
NOTICE
NEVER USE LEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is detrimental to
the catalytic converter and will
damage the engine control sys-
tem’s oxygen sensor and affect
emission control.
Also, severe wear and crack of pis-
ton ring, valve, etc. may occur and
knocking noise may be heard from
your engine.
Never add any fuel system clean-
ing agents to the fuel tank other
than what has been specified (We
recommend that you consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
details.)
WARNING
Do not “top off” after the nozzle
automatically shuts off when
refueling.
Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an
accident.
Petrol containing alcohol and
methanol
Gasohol, a mixture of petrol and eth-
anol (also known as grain alcohol),
and petrol or gasohol containing
methanol (also known as wood alco-
hol) are being marketed along with or
instead of leaded or unleaded gaso-
line.
Do not use gasohol containing more
than 20% ethanol, and do not use
petrol or gasohol containing any
methanol. Either of these fuels may
cause drivability problems and dam-
age to the fuel system, engine control
system and emission control system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any
kind if drivability problems occur.
Vehicle damage or driveability prob-
lems may not be covered by the man-
ufacturer’s warranty if they result from
the use of:
1. Gasohol containing more than
20% ethanol.
2. Petrol or gasohol containing meth-
anol.
3. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION
Never use gasohol which contains
methanol. Discontinue use of any
gasohol product which impairs
drivability.
Using Fuel Additives
Using fuel additives such as:
- Silicone fuel additive
- MMT (Manganese, Mn) fuel addi-
tive
- Ferrocene (iron-based) fuel addi-
tive
- Other metallic-based fuel additives
May result in cylinder misfire, poor
acceleration, engine stalling, engine
plugging, heavy knocking noise,
damage to the catalyst, or abnormal
corrosion, and may cause damage to
the engine resulting in a reduction in
the overall life of the powertrain. The
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
may illuminate.
NOTICE
Damage to the fuel system or per-
formance problem caused by the
use of these fuels may not be cov-
ered by your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Use of MTBE
HYUNDAI recommends avoiding
fuels containing MTBE (Methyl
Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) in
your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0%
vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7% weight)
may reduce vehicle performance and
produce vapor lock or hard starting.
CAUTION
Your New Vehicle Limited Warranty
may not cover damage to the fuel
system and any performance prob-
lems that are caused by the use of
fuels containing methanol or fuels
containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary
Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight.)
Do not use methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood
alcohol) should not be used in your
vehicle. This type of fuel can reduce
vehicle performance and damage
components of the fuel system,
engine control system and emission
control system.
Fuel Additives
HYUNDAI recommends that you use
unleaded petrol which has an Octane
Rating of RON (Research Octane
Number) 91 / AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
87 or higher.
For customers who do not use good
quality petrol including fuel additives
regularly, and have problems starting
or the engine does not run smoothly,
one bottle of additives added to the
fuel tank is recommended according
to the maintenance schedule (refer to
chapter 8, “Normal Maintenance
Schedule”).
Additives are available from your
authorized HYUNDAI dealer along
with information on how to use them.
Do not mix other additives.
Operation in foreign countries
If you are going to drive your vehicle
in another country, be sure to:
• Observe all regulations regarding
registration and insurance.
Determine that acceptable fuel is
available.
Diesel engine
Diesel fuel
Diesel engine must be operated only
on commercially available diesel fuel
that complies with EN 590 or compa-
rable standard. (EN stands for
“European Norm”). Do not use marine
diesel fuel, heating oils, or non-ap-
proved fuel additives, as this will
increase wear and cause damage to
the engine and fuel system. The use
of non-approved fuels and / or fuel
additives will result in a limitation of
your warranty rights.
Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is
used in your vehicle. If two types of
diesel fuel are available, use summer
or winter fuel properly according to
the following temperature conditions.
Above - 5°C(23°F) ... Summer
type diesel fuel.
Below -5°C (23°F) ... Winter type
diesel fuel.
Watch the fuel level in the tank very
carefully : If the engine stops through
fuel failure, the circuits must be com-
pletely purged to permit restarting.
CAUTION
Do not let any petrol or water enter
the tank. This would make it nec-
essary to drain it out and to bleed
the lines to avoid jamming the
injection pump and damaging the
engine.
CAUTION
- Diesel Fuel
(if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the regu-
lated automotive diesel fuel for
diesel vehicle equipped with the
DPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including
high sulfur (more than 10 ppm sul-
fur) and unspecified additives, it
can cause the DPF system to be
damaged and white smoke can be
emitted.
Biodiesel
Commercially supplied Diesel blends
of no more than 7% biodiesel, com-
monly known as “B7 Diesel” may be
used in your vehicle if Biodiesel
meets EN 14214 or equivalent speci-
fications. (EN stands for “European
Norm”). The use of biofuels exceed-
ing 7% made from rapeseed methyl
ester (RME), fatty acid methyl ester
(FAME), vegetable oil methyl ester
(VME) etc. or mixing diesel exceed-
ing 7% with biodiesel will cause
increased wear or damage to the
engine and fuel system. Repair or
replacement of worn or damaged
components due to the use of non
approved fuels will not be covered by
the manufactures warranty.
CAUTION
Never use any fuel, whether die-
sel, B7 biodiesel or otherwise,
that fails to meet the latest petro-
leum industry specification.
Never use any fuel additives or
treatments that are not recom-
mended or approved by the
vehicle manufacturer.
VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS
This vehicle should not be modi-
fied. Modification of your vehicle
could affect its performance, safety
or durability and may even violate
governmental safety and emis-
sions regulations.
In addition, damage or perfor-
mance problems resulting from
any modification may not be cov-
ered under warranty.
If you use unauthorized electronic
devices, it may cause the vehicle
to operate abnormally, wire dam-
age, battery discharge and fire. For
your safety, we recommend that
you do not use unauthorized elec-
tronic devices.
9(+,&/(%5($.ǘ,1
PROCESS
No special break-in period is needed.
By following a few simple precautions
for the first 1,000 km (600 miles) you
may add to the performance, econo-
my and life of your vehicle:
Do not race the engine.
While driving, avoid sudden accel-
eration.
Do not maintain a single speed for
long periods of time, either fast or
slow.
Varying engine speed is needed to
properly break-in the engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emer-
gencies, to allow the brakes to
seat properly.
• Fuel economy and engine perfor-
mance, engine oil consumption
may vary depending on vehicle
break-in process and be stabilized
after driving about 6,000 km. New
engines may consume more oil
during the vehicle break-in period.
Don’t tow a trailer during the first
2,000 km (1,200 miles) of opera-
tion.

NOTICE
It is permissible to add 20 kPa (3 psi) to the standard tire pressure
specification if colder temperatures are expected soon. Tires typically
lose 7 kPa (1 psi) for every 7°C (12°F) temperature drop. If extreme tem-
perature variations are expected, recheck your tire pressure as neces-
sary to keep them properly inflated.
An air pressure generally decreases, as you drive up to a high-altitude
area above sea level. Thus, if you plan to drive a high-altitude area,
check the tire pressures in advance. If necessary, inflate them to a
proper level (Air inflation per altitude: +10 kPa/1 km (+2.4 psi/1 mile).
Spare tire are intended for emergency purpose only.
Only steel wheel is provided as a spare wheel. Spare tire can be from
any manufacturer.
CAUTION
When replacing tires, use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle.
Using tires of a different size can damage the related parts or make it work ir-
regularly.

*1 : Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2 : Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel
economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to
measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
*3 : Diesel Particulate Filter
*4 : If the recommended engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use engine oil above API CH-4 or above.
*5 : The fuel filling capacity mentioned is less than the actual fuel tank capacity. The extra capacity in the tank is provided to
cater the vapour creation of fuel, to prevent leakage of volatile organic compounds and fuel into the atmosphere. Further,
it is recommended that do not fill the tank after auto cut-off at the fuel station during filling fuel.

Vehicle Information
Recommended SAE viscosity number
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially im-
portant in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved
roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from
entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, high-
er viscosity engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather.
Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could result in en-
gine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.
*1 : If mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil is used, it is a severe maintenance condition in
terms of engine oil change.
An engine oil displaying this API Certification Mark conforms
to the international Lubricant Specification Advisory Commit-
tee (ILSAC). It is recommended to only use engine oils that
uphold this API Certification Mark.

3. Safety System
This chapter provides you with important information about how to protect
yourself and your passengers. It explains how to properly use your seats and
seat belts, and how your air bags work.
Additionally, this chapter explains how to properly restrain infants and chil-
dren in your vehicle.

Safety System
You will find many safety precautions
and recommendations throughout
this section, and throughout this man-
ual.The safety precautions in this
section are among the most import-
ant.
Always wear your seat belt
A seat belt is your best protection in
all types of accidents. Air bags are
designed to supplement seat belts,
not replace them. So even though
your vehicle is equipped with air
bags, ALWAYS make sure you and
your passengers wear your seat
belts, and wear them properly.
Restrain all children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in
a rear seat, not the front seat.Infants
and small children should be re-
strained in an appropriate child re-
straint. Larger children should use a
booster seat with the lap/shoulder
belt until they can use the seat belt
properly without a booster seat.
Air bag hazards
While air bags can save lives, they
can also cause serious or fatal inju-
ries to occupants who sit too close to
them, or who are not properly re-
strained.
Infants, young children, and short
adults are at the greatest risk of being
injured by an inflating air bag. Follow
all instructions and warnings in this
manual.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious
and potentially deadly danger, espe-
cially for inexperienced drivers.Safety
should be the first concern when be-
hind the wheel and drivers need to be
aware of the wide array of potential
distractions, such as drowsiness,
reaching for objects, eating, personal
grooming, other passengers, and us-
ing cellular phones. Drivers can be-
come distracted when they take their
eyes and attention off the road or
their hands off the wheel to focus on
activities other than driving.To reduce
your risk of distraction and an acci-
dent:
ALWAYS set up your mobile devic-
es (for example, MP3 players,
phones, navigation units, etc.)
when your vehicle is parked or
safely stopped.
• ONLY use your mobile device
when allowed by laws and condi-
tions permit safe use.
NEVER text or email while driving.
Most countries have laws prohibit-
ing drivers from texting. Some
countries and cities also prohibit
drivers from using handheld
phones.
NEVER let the use of a mobile de-
vice distract you from driving.You
have a responsibility to your pas-
sengers and others on the road to
always drive safely, with your
hands on the wheel as well as your
eyes and attention on the road.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
3-3
03
Control your speed
Excessive speed is a major factor in
crash injuries and deaths. Generally,
the higher the speed, the greater the
risk, but serious injuries can also oc-
cur at lower speeds. Never drive fast-
er than is safe for current conditions,
regardless of the maximum speed
posted.
Keep your vehicle in safe con-
dition
Having a tire blowout or a mechanical
failure can be extremely hazardous.
To reduce the possibility of such
problems, check your tire pressures
and condition frequently, and perform
all regularly scheduled maintenance.

SEATS
3-5
03
WARNING
Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver’s foot
area could interfere with the opera-
tion of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident. Do not place
anything under the front seats.
WARNING
Uprighting seat
When you return the seatback to
its upright position, hold the seat-
back and return it slowly and be
sure there are no other occupants
around the seat. If the seatback is
returned without being held and
controlled, the back of the seat
could move forward or backward
resulting in accidental injury to a
person struck by the seatback.
WARNING
Driver responsibility for passen-
gers
Riding in a vehicle with seatback
reclined could lead to serious or
fatal injury in an accident. If a seat
is reclined during an accident, the
occupant’s hips may slide under
the lap portion of the seat belt ap-
plying great force to the unprotect-
ed abdomen. The protection of
your restraint system (seat belt
and air bags) is greatly reduced by
reclining your seat. Serious or fa-
tal internal injuries could result.
The driver must advise the pas-
senger to keep the seatback in an
upright position whenever the ve-
hicle is in motion.
WARNING
Do not use a sitting cushion that
reduces friction between the seat
and passenger. The passenger’s
hips may slide under the lap por-
tion of the seat belt during an acci-
dent or a sudden stop. Serious or
fatal internal injuries could result
because the seat belt can’t operate
normally.
WARNING
Driver’s seat
Never attempt to adjust seat
while the vehicle is moving. This
could result in loss of control,
and an accident causing death,
serious injury, or property dam-
age.
Do not allow anything to inter-
fere with the normal position of
the seatback. Storing items
against a seatback or in any oth-
er way interfering with proper
locking of a seatback could re-
sult in serious or fatal injury in a
sudden stop or collision.
Always drive and ride with your
seatback upright and the lap
portion of the seat belt snug and
low across the hips. This is the
best position to protect you in
case of an accident.
In order to avoid unnecessary
and perhaps severe air bag inju-
ries, always sit as far back as
possible from the steering wheel
while maintaining comfortable
control of the vehicle.
3-6
Safety System
WARNING
Rear seatbacks
The rear seatback must be se-
curely latched. If not, passen-
gers and objects could be
thrown forward resulting in seri-
ous injury or death in the event
of a sudden stop or collision.
Luggage and other cargo should
be laid flat in the cargo area. If
objects are large, heavy, or must
be piled, they must be secured.
Under no circumstances should
cargo be piled higher than the
seatbacks. Failure to follow
these warnings cou ld result in
serious injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop, collision
or rollover.
No passenger should ride in the
cargo area or sit or lie on folded
seatbacks while the vehicle is
moving. All passengers must be
properly seated in seats and re-
strained properly while riding.
• When resetting the seatback to
the upright position, make sure
it is securely latched by pushing
it forward and backwards.
To avoid the possibility of burns,
do not remove the carpet in the
cargo area. Emission control de-
vices beneath this floor gener-
ate high temperatures.
WARNING
After adjusting the seat, always
check that it is securely locked
into place by attempting to move
the seat forward or backward with-
out using the lock release lever.
Sudden or unexpected movement
of the driver’s seat could cause
you to lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
WARNING
Do not adjust the seat while
wearing seat belts. Moving the
seat cushion forward may cause
strong pressure on the abdo-
men.
• Use extreme caution so that
hands or other objects are not
caught in the seat mechanisms
while the seat is moving.
Do not put a cigarette lighter on
the floor or seat. When you op-
erate the seat, gas may gush out
of the lighter and cause fire.
If there are occupants in the rear
seats, be careful while adjusting
the front seat position.

03
Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be danger-
ous. Even when buckled up, the pro-
tections of your restraint system (seat
belts and air bags) is greatly reduced
by reclining your seatback.
WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback in-
creases your chance of serious or
fatal injuries in the event of a colli-
sion or sudden stop.
Driver and passengers should al-
ways sit well back in their seats
with the upright seatbacks and
should be belted properly.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
When the seatback is reclined, the
shoulder belt cannot do its job be-
cause it will not be snug against your
chest. Instead, it will be in front of
you.During an accident, you could be
thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries. The more the
seatback is reclined, the greater
chance the passenger’s hips will slide
under the lap belt or the passenger’s
neck will strike the shoulder belt.
Headrest

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death in an accident, take the
following precautions when ad-
justing your headrests:
• Always properly adjust the
headrests for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.

SEAT BELTS
WARNING
For maximum restraint system
protection, the seat belts must
always be used whenever the
car is moving.
Seat belts are most effective
when seatbacks are in the up-
right position.
Children age 12 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat.
• Never allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat. If a
child over 12 must be seated in
the front seat, he/she must be
properly belted and the seat
should be moved as far back as
possible.
Never wear the shoulder belt un-
der your arm or behind your
back. An improperly positioned
shoulder belt can cause serious
injuries in a crash. The shoulder
belt should be positioned mid-
way over your shoulder across
your collarbone.
Never wear a seat belt over frag-
ile objects. If there is a sudden
stop or impact, the seat belt can
damage it.
Avoid wearing twisted seat
belts. A twisted belt can’t do its
job as well. In a collision, it could
even cut into you. Be sure the
belt webbing is straight and not
twisted.
Be careful not to damage the
belt webbing or hardware. If the
belt webbing or hardware is
damaged, replace it.
WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as ap-
plicable; wearing the lap section of
the belt across the abdominal area
must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been de-
signed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid con-
tamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water. The belt
should be replaced if webbing be-
comes frayed, contaminated or
damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in
a severe impact even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. Belts
should not be worn with straps
twisted. Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the occu-
pant’s lap.

Safety System
WARNING
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the
seat belt adjusting devices from
operating to remove slack, or
prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove
slack.
When you fasten the seat belt,
be careful not to latch the seat
belt in buckles of other seat. It’s
very dangerous and you may
not be protected by the seat belt
properly.
Do not unfasten the seat belt
and do not fasten and unfasten
the seat belt repeatedly while
driving. This could result in loss
of control, and an accident caus-
ing death, serious injury, or
property damage.
When fastening the seat belt,
make sure that the seat belt
does not pass over objects that
are hard or can break easily.
Make sure there is nothing in the
buckle interfering with the seat
belt latch mechanism, because
any materials in the buckle can
cause the seat belt not to be fas-
tened securely.

WARNING
Improperly positioned seat belts
may increase the risk of serious in-
jury in an accident.Take the follow-
ing precautions when adjusting
the seat belt:
Position the lap portion of the
seat belt as low as possible
across your hips, not on your
waist, so that it fits snugly.This
allows your strong pelvic bones
to absorb the force of the crash,
reducing the chance of internal
injuries.

Pre-tensioner seat belt
OIB034039
OIB034039
Your vehicle is equipped with driver’s
and front passenger’s pre-tensioner
seat belts (retractor pre-tensioner).
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to
make sure the seat belts fit tightly
against the occupant’s body in cer-
tain frontal or side collision(s). The
pre-tensioner seat belts may be acti-
vated in crashes where the frontal or
side collision(s) is severe enough, to-
gether with the air bags.When the ve-
hicle stops suddenly, or if the occu-
pant tries to lean forward too quickly,
the seat belt retractor will lock into
position. In certain frontal collisions,
the pre-tensioner will activate and
pull the seat belt into tighter contact
against the occupant’s body.
3-27
03
WARNING
Always wear your seat belt and
sit properly in your seat.
Do not use the seat belt if it is
loose or twisted. A loose or
twisted seat belt will not protect
you properly in an accident.
Do not place anything near the
buckle. This may adversely af-
fect the buckle and cause it to
function improperly.
Always replace your pre-ten-
sioners after activation or an ac-
cident.
NEVER inspect, service, repair
or replace the pre-tensioners by
yourself.This must be done by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not hit the seat belt assem-
blies.
WARNING
Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies for several minutes
after they have been activated.
When the pre-tensioner seat belt
mechanism deploys during a colli-
sion, the pre-tensioner can become
hot and can burn you.
CAUTION
Body work on the front area of the
vehicle may damage the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt system. Therefore,
we recommend the system to be
serviced by an authorized HYUND-
AI dealer.

Safety System
i Information
Both the drivers and front passen-
ger’s pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
collisions.
When the pre-tensioner seat belts
are activated, a loud noise may be
heard and fine dust, which may ap-
pear to be smoke, may be visible in
the passenger compartment. These
are normal operating conditions
and are not hazardous.
Although it is non-toxic, the fine
dust may cause skin irritation and
should not be inhaled for prolonged
periods. Wash all exposed skin areas
thoroughly after an accident in
which the pre-tensioner seat belts
were activated.
Additional seat belt safety pre-
cautions
Seat belt use during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be used
during pregnancy. The best way to
protect your unborn child is to protect
yourself by always wearing the seat
belt. Pregnant women should always
wear a lap-shoulder seat belt. Place
the shoulder belt across your chest,
routed between your breasts and
away from your neck. Place the lap
belt below your belly so that it fits
SNUGLY across your hips and pelvic
bone, under the rounded part of the
belly.
WARNING
Pregnant women and patients
are more vulnerable to any im-
pacts on the abdomen during an
abrupt stop or accident. If you
are in an accident while preg-
nant, consult your doctor.
To reduce the risk of serious inju-
ry or death to an unborn child
during an accident, pregnant
women should NEVER place the
lap portion of the seat belt above
or over the area of the abdomen
where the unborn child is located.
Seat belt use and children
Infant and small children
Most countries have Child Restraint
System laws which require children
to travel in approved Child Restraint
System devices, including booster
seats.The age at which seat belts can
be used instead of Child Restraint
System differs among countries, so
you should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country, and
where you are travelling. Infant and
Child Restraint System must be prop-
erly placed and installed in a rear
seat. For more details refer to the
“Child Restraint Systems”in this
chapter.
3-29
03
WARNING
ALWAYS properly restrain infants
and small children in a Child Re-
straint System appropriate for the
child’s height and weight. To reduce
the risk of serious injury or death to
a child and other passengers,NEV-
ER hold a child in your lap or arms
when the vehicle is moving.The vio-
lent forces created during an acci-
dent will tear the child from your
arms and throw the child against the
interior of the vehicle.
Small children are best protected
from injury in an accident when prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat by a
Child Restraint System that meets
the requirements of the Safety Stan-
dards of your country. Before buying
any Child Restraint System, make
sure that it has a label certifying that it
meets Safety Standard of your coun-
try. The Child Restraint System must
be appropriate for your child’s height
and weight. Check the label on the
Child Restraint System for this infor-
mation. Refer to “Child Restraint Sys-
tems” in this chapter.
Larger children
Children under age 13 and who are
too large for a booster seat should al-
ways occupy the rear seat and use
the available lap/shoulder belts. A
seat belt should lie across the upper
thighs and be snug across the shoul-
der and chest to restrain the child
safely. Check belt fit periodically. A
child’s squirming could put the belt
out of position.In the event of an acci-
dent, children are afforded the best
safety restrained by a proper Child
Restraint System in the rear seats.
If a larger child over age 13 must be
seated in the front seat, the child
must be securely restrained by the
available lap/shoulder belt and the
seat should be placed in the rearmost
position. If the shoulder belt portion
slightly touches the child’s neck or
face, try placing the child closer to the
center of the vehicle.If the shoulder
belt still touches their face or neck,
they need to be returned to an appro-
priate booster seat in the rear seat.
WARNING
Always make sure larger chil-
dren’s seat belts are worn and
properly adjusted.
NEVER allow the shoulder belt
to contact the child’s neck or
face.
Do not allow more than one
child to use a single seat belt.
Seat belt use and injured people
A seat belt should be used when an
injured person is being transported.
Consult a physician for specific rec-
ommendations.
One person per belt
Two people (including children)
should never attempt to use a single
seat belt. This could increase the se-
verity of injuries in case of an acci-
dent.
3-30
Safety System
Do not lie down
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be danger-
ous. Even when buckled up, the pro-
tections of your restraint system (seat
belts and/or air bags) is greatly re-
duced by reclining your seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly.
During an accident, you could be
thrown into the seat belt, causing
neck or other injuries.
The more the seat back is reclined,
the greater the chance for the pas-
senger’s hips to slide under the lap
belt or the passenger’s neck to strike
the shoulder belt.
WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is mov-
ing.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries in the event
of a collision or sudden stop.
Driver and passengers should
always sit well back in their
seats with the upright seatbacks
and should be belted properly.
Care of seat belts
Seat belt systems should never be
disassembled or modified. In addi-
tion, care should be taken to assure
that seat belts and belt hardware are
not damaged by seat hinges, doors
or other abuse.
Periodic inspection
All seat belts should be inspected pe-
riodically for wear or damage of any
kind. Any damaged parts should be
replaced as soon as possible.
Keep belts clean and dry
Seat belts should be kept clean and
dry. If belts become dirty, they can be
cleaned by using a mild soap solution
and warm water. Bleach, dye, strong
detergents or abrasives should not
be used because they may damage
and weaken the fabric.
When to replace seat belts
The entire seat belt assembly or as-
semblies should be replaced if the
vehicle has been involved in an acci-
dent. This should be done even if no
damage is visible.We recommend
that you consult an authorized HYUN-
DAI dealer.
3-31
03
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Children riding in the car should sit in
the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are saf-
er when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat. Larg-
er children not in a child restraint
should use one of the seat belts pro-
vided.
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your country. Child
and/or infant safety seats must be
properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. You must use a commer-
cially available child restraint system
that meets the requirements of the
Safety Standards of your country.
Child restraint systems are designed
to be secured in vehicle seats by the
lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
Children could be injured or killed in a
crash if their restraints are not proper-
ly secured. For small children and ba-
bies, a child seat or infant seat must
be used.
Before buying a particular child re-
straint syst em, make sure it fits your
car seat and seat belts, and fits your
child. Follow all the instructions pro-
vided by the manufacturer when in-
stalling the child restraint system.
WARNING
A child restraint system must be
placed in the rear seat. Never in-
stall a child or infant seat on the
front passenger’s seat. Should
an accident occur and cause the
passenger-side air bag to de-
ploy, it could severely injure or
kill an infant or child seated in
an infant or child seat. Thus only
use a child restraint in the rear
seat of your vehicle.
A seat belt or child restraint sys-
tem can become very hot if it is
left in a closed vehicle on a sun-
ny day, even if the outside tem-
perature does not feel hot. Be
sure to check the seat cover and
buckles before placing a child
there.
When the child restraint system
is not in use, store it in the lug-
gage area or fasten it with a seat
belt so that it will not be thrown
forward in the case of a sudden
stop or an accident.
Children may be seriously in-
jured or killed by an inflating air
bag. All children, even those too
large for child restraints, must
ride in the rear seat.
3-32
Safety System
WARNING
To reduce the chance of serious
or fatal injuries:
Children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
A child riding in the front pas-
senger seat can be forcefully
struck by an inflating air bag re-
sulting in serious or fatal inju-
ries.
• Always follow the instructions
for installation and use of the
child restraint maker.
Always make sure the child seat
is secured properly in the car
and your child is securely re-
strained in the child seat.
Never hold a child in your arms
or lap when riding in a vehicle.
The violent forces created
during a crash will tear the child
from your arms and throw the
child against the car’s interior.
Never put a seat belt over your-
self and a child. During a crash,
the belt could press deep into
the child causing serious inter-
nal injuries.
• Never leave children unattended
in a vehicle - not even for a short
time. The car can heat up very
quickly, resulting in serious in-
juries to children inside. Even
very young children may inad-
vertently cause the vehicle to
move, entangle themselves in
the windows, or lock themselves
or others inside the vehicle.
Never allow two children, or any
two persons, to use the same
seat belt.
Children often squirm and repo-
sition themselves improperly.
Never let a child ride with the
shoulder belt under their arm or
behind their back. Always prop-
erly position and secure chil-
dren in rear seat.
Never allow a child to stand-up
or kneel on the seat or floor-
board of a moving vehicle.
During a collision or sudden
stop, the child can be violently
thrown against the vehicles inte-
rior, resulting in serious injury.
Never use an infant carrier or a
child safety seat that “hooks”
over a seatback, it may not pro-
vide adequate security in an ac-
cident.
Seat belts can become very hot,
especially when the car is
parked in direct sunlight. Al-
ways check seat belt buckles
before fastening them over a
child.
After an accident, we recom-
mend that the system be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
If there is not enough space to
place the child restraint system
because of the driver’s seat, in-
stall the child restraint system in
the rear right seat.

For small children and babies, the
use of a child seat or infant seat is
required. This child seat or infant seat
should be of appropriate size for the
child and should be installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer’s in-
structions.
For safety reasons, we recommend
that the child restraint system is used
in the rear seats.
WARNING
Never place a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat,
because of the danger that an in-
flating passenger-side air bag
could impact the rear-facing child
restraint and kill the child.
WARNING
Child seat installation
A child can be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the child
restraint is not properly an-
chored to the car and the child is
not properly restrained in the
child restraint. Before installing
the child restraint system, read
the instructions supplied by the
child restraint system manufac-
turer.
If the seat belt does not operate
as described in this section, we
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Failure to observe this manual’s
instructions regarding child re-
straint system and the instruc-
tions provided with the child re-
straint system could increase
the risk and/or severity of injury
in an accident.

Safety System
Installing a Child Restraint
System (CRS)
WARNING
Before installing your Child Re-
straint System always:
Read and follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of
the Child Restraint System.
Failure to follow all warnings and
instructions could increase the
risk of the SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH if an accident occurs.
WARNING
If the vehicle headrest prevents
proper installation of a Child Re-
straint System (as described in the
Child Restraint System manual),
the headrest of the respective
seating position shall be readjust-
ed or entirely removed.
After selecting a proper Child Re-
straint System and checking that the
Child Restraint System fits properly in
the rear of this vehicle, you are ready
to install the Child Restraint System
according to the manufacturer’s in-
struction. There are three general
steps in installing the Child Restraint
System properly:
Properly secure the Child Re-
straint System to the vehicle. All
Child Restraint Systems must be
secured to the vehicle with the lap
belt or lap part of a lap/shoulder
belt or with the top-tether and/or
ISOFIX anchorage.
Make sure the Child Restraint
System is firmly secured. After
installing a Child Restraint System
to the vehicle, push and pull the
Child Restraint System forward
and from side-to-side to verify that
it is securely attached to the vehi-
cle seat. A Child Restraint System
secured with a seat belt should be
installed as firmly as possible.
However, some side-to-side move-
ment can be expected.
When installing a Child Restraint
System, adjust the vehicle seat (up
and down, forward and rearward)
so that your child fits in the Child
Restraint System in a comfortable
manner.

Secure the child in the Child Re-
straint System. Make sure the
child is properly strapped in the
Child Restraint System according
to the Child Restraint System man-
ufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING
A Child Restraint System in a
closed vehicle can become very
hot. To prevent burns, check the
seating surface and buckles be-
fore placing your child in the Child
Restraint System.
ISOFIX anchorage and top-tether
anchorage (ISOFIX system) for

straint System easier and reduce the
possibility of improperly installing
your Child Restraint System. The
ISOFIX system uses anchors in the
vehicle and attachments on the Child
Restraint System. The ISOFIX sys-
tem eliminates the need to use seat
belts to secure the Child Restraint
System to the rear seats.
ISOFIX anchors are metal bars built
into the vehicle. There are two lower
anchors for each ISOFIX seating po-
sition that will accommodate a Child
Restraint System with lower attach-
ments.
To use the ISOFIX system in your ve-
hicle, you must have a Child Restraint
System with ISOFIX attachments.
(An ISOFIX-Child Restraint System
may only be installed if it has vehi-
cle-specific or universal approval in
accordance with the requirements of
ECE-R 44 or ECE-R 129.)
The Child Restraint System manufac-
turer will provide you with instructions
on how to use the Child Restraint
System with its attachments for the
lower anchorages.

Securing a Child Restraint Sys-
tem with the “ISOFIX system”
To install a ISOFIX-compatible Child
Restraint System in either of the rear
outboard seating positions:
1. Move the seat belt buckle away
from the ISOFIX anchorages.
2. Move any other objects away from
the anchors that could prevent a
secure connection between the
Child Restraint System and the
ISOFIX anchorages.
3. Place the Child Restraint System
on the vehicle seat, then attach the
seat to the ISOFIX anchorages ac-
cording to the instructions provided
by the Child Restraint System
manufacturer.
4. Follow the instructions of the Child
Restraint System’s manufacturer
for proper installation and connec-
tion of the ISOFIX attachments on
the Child Restraint System to the
ISOFIX anchorages.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the ISOFIX system:
Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your
Child Restraint System.
To prevent the child from reach-
ing and taking hold of unretract-
ed seat belts, buckle all unused
rear seat belts and retract the
seat belt webbing behind the
child. Children can be strangled
if a shoulder belt becomes
wrapped around their neck and
the seat belt tightens.
NEVER attach more than one
Child Restraint System to a sin-
gle anchorage. This could cause
the anchor or attachment to
come loose or break.
Always have the ISOFIX system
inspected by your dealer after
an accident. An accident can
damage the ISOFIX system and
may not properly secure the
Child Restraint System.

Safety System
WARNING
• Even in vehicles with air bags,
you and your passengers must
always wear the safety belts
provided in order to minimize
the risk and severity of injury in
the event of a collision or roll-
over.
SRS and pretensioners contain
explosive chemicals.
If scraping a vehicle without re-
moving SRS and pretensioners
from a vehicle, it may cause fire.
Before scraping a vehicle, we
recommend that you contact an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
Keep the SRS parts and wirings
away from water or any liquid. If
the SRS components are inoper-
ative due to exposure to water
or liquids, it may cause fire or
severe injury.
How does the air bag system
operate
Air bags are activated (able to in-
flate if necessary) only when the
ignition switch is placed to the ON
or START position.
Air bags inflate instantly in the
event of serious frontal or side col-
lision in order to help protect the
occupants from serious physical
injury.
There is no single speed at which
the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic de-
ployment/ inflation signal.
Air bag deployment depends on a
number of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact and the
density and stiffness of the vehi-
cles or objects which your vehicle
hits in the collision. The determin-
ing, factors are not limited to those
mentioned above.
The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an
accident.
It is much more likely that you will
simply see the deflated air bags
hanging out of their storage com-
partments after the collision.
In order to help provide protection
in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of
air bag inflation is a consequence
of extremely short time in which a
collision occurs and the need to
get the air bag between the occu-
pant and the vehicle structures be-
fore the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or
life-threatening injuries in a severe
collision and is thus a necessary
part of air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro-
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.
There are even circumstances un-
der which contact with the steering
wheel air bag can cause fatal inju-
ries, especially if the occupant is
positioned excessively close to the
steering wheel.
3-47
03
WARNING
To avoid severe personal injury
or death caused by deploying
air bags in a collision, the driver
should sit as far back from the
steering wheel air bag as possi-
ble. The front passenger should
always move their seat as far
back as possible and sit back in
their seat.
• Air bag inflates instantly in an
event of a collision, passengers
may be injured by the air bag ex-
pansion force if they are not in a
proper position.
Air bag inflation may cause inju-
ries including facial or bodily
abrasions, injuries from broken
glasses or burns.
Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise and they leave smoke
and powder in the air inside of the ve-
hicle. This is normal and is a result of
the ignition of the air bag inflator. Af-
ter the air bag inflates, you may feel
substantial discomfort in breathing
due to the contact of your chest with
both the seat belt and the air bag, as
well as from breathing the smoke and
powder. Open your doors and/or
windows as soon as possible after
impact in order to reduce discom-
fort and prevent prolonged expo-
sure to the smoke and powder.
Though smoke and powder are
non-toxic, it may cause irritation to
the skin (eyes, nose and throat, etc.).
If this is the case, wash and rinse with
cold water immediately and consult
with the doctor if the symptom per-
sists.
WARNING
When the air bags deploy, the air
bag related parts in the steering
wheel are very hot. To prevent in-
jury, do not touch the air bag stor-
age areas internal components im-
mediately after an air bag has
inflated.
Do not install a child restraint
on the front passenger’s seat
(if equipped)
OYDESA2042
OYDESA2042
Never place a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front passenger’s seat. If
the air bag deploys, it would impact
the rear-facing child restraint, caus-
ing serious or fatal injury.
In addition, do not place front-facing
child restraints in the front passen-
ger’s seat either. If the front passen-
ger air bag inflates, it would cause
serious or fatal injuries to the child.

sette holder, sticker, etc.) on the
front passenger’s panel above
the glove box in a vehicle with a
passenger’s air bag. Such ob-
jects may become dangerous
projectiles and cause injury if
the passenger’s air bag inflates.
When installing a container of
liquid air freshener inside the
vehicle, do not place it near the
instrument cluster nor on the in-
strument panel surface.
It may become a dangerous pro-
jectile and cause injury if the
passenger’s air bag inflates.
WARNING
If an air bag deploys, there may
be a loud noise followed by a
fine dust released in the vehicle.
These conditions are normal
and are not hazardous - the air
bags are packed in this fine
powder. The dust generated
during air bag deployment may
cause skin or eye irritation as
well as aggravate asthma for
some persons. Always wash all
exposed skin areas thoroughly
with cold water and a mild soap
after an accident in which the air
bags were deployed.
The SRS can function only when
the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
Before you replace a fuse or dis-
connect a battery terminal, turn
the ignition switch to the LOCK
position and remove the ignition
key. Never remove or replace
the air bag related fuse(s) when
the ignition switch is in the ON
position. Failure to heed this

Your vehicle is equipped with a Sup-
plemental Restraint (Air Bag) System
and lap/shoulder belts at both the
driver and passenger seating posi-
tions.
The indications of the system’s pres-
ence are the letters “AIR BAG” en-
graved on the air bag pad cover in the
steering wheel and the passenger’s
side front panel pad above the glove
box.
The SRS consists of air bags installed
under the pad covers in the center of
the steering wheel and the passen-
ger’s side front panel above the glove
box.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle’s driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt sys-
tem alone in case of a frontal impact
of sufficient severity.
WARNING
Always use seat belts and child re-
straints – every trip, every time, ev-
eryone! Air bags inflate with con-
siderable force and in the blink of
an eye. Seat belts help keep occu-
pants in proper position to obtain
maximum benefit from the air bag.
Even with air bags, improperly and
unbelted occupants can be se-
verely injured when the air bag in-
flates. Always follow the precau-
tions about seat belts, air bags and
occupant safety contained in this
manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries and receive the maxi-
mum safety benefit from your re-
straint system:
Never place a child in any child
or booster seat in the front seat.
ABC – Always Buckle Children
in the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to
ride.
• Air bags can injure occupants
improperly positioned in the
front seats.
Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air bags,
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle.
3-52
Safety System
You and your passengers
should never sit or lean unnec-
essarily close to the air bags.
Improperly positioned drivers
and passengers can be severely
injured by inflating air bags.
Never lean against the door or
center console – always sit in an
upright position.
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder,
cup holder, perfume or stickers)
should be placed over or near
the air bag modules on the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel,
windshield glass, and the front
passenger’s panel above the
glove box. Such objects could
cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause
the air bags to deploy.
Do not attach any objects on the
front windshield and inside mir-
ror.
Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring or other compo-
nents of the SRS system. Doing
so could result in injury, due to
accidental deployment of the air
bags or by rendering the SRS in-
operative.
If the SRS air bag warning light
remains illuminated while the
vehicle is being driven, we rec-
ommend that the system be in-
spected by an authorized HYUN-
DAI dealer.
Air bags can only be used once
– we recommend that the sys-
tem be replaced by an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer.
The SRS is designed to deploy
the front air bags only when an
impact is sufficiently severe and
when the impact angle is less
than 30° from the forward longi-
tudinal axis of the vehicle. Addi-
tionally, the air bags will only
deploy once. Seat belts must be
worn at all times.
Front air bags are not intended
to deploy in side-impact, rear-im-
pact or rollover crashes. In addi-
tion, front air bags will not de-
ploy in frontal crashes below the
deployment threshold.
A child restraint system must
never be placed in the front seat.
The infant or child could be se-
verely injured or killed by an air
bag deployment in case of an
accident.
Children age 12 and under must
always be properly restrained in
the rear seat. Never allow chil-
dren to ride in the front passen-
ger seat. If a child over 12 must
be seated in the front seat, he or
she must be properly belted and
the seat should be moved as far
back as possible.
For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, all occu-
pants including the driver
should always wear their seat
belts whether or not an air bag is
also provided at their seating
position to minimize the risk of
severe injury or death in the
event of a crash. Do not sit or
lean unnecessarily close to the
air bag while the vehicle is in
motion.
3-53
03
Sitting improperly or out of posi-
tion can result in serious or fatal
injury in a crash. All occupants
should sit upright with the seat
back in an upright position, cen-
tered on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfort-
ably extended and their feet on
the floor until the vehicle is
parked and the ignition key is re-
moved.
The SRS air bag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an occu-
pant is out of position because
of not wearing a seat belt, the air
bag may forcefully contact the
occupant causing serious or fa-
tal injuries.
Side impact air bag
OIB034021
OIB034021
OJK032063
OJK032063
The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ from the
illustration.
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each front seat.
The purpose of the air bag is to pro-
vide the vehicle’s driver and/or the
front passenger with additional pro-
tection than that offered by the seat
belt alone.
The side impact air bags are de-
signed to deploy only during certain
side-impact collisions, depending on
the crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact. The side impact air
bags are not designed to deploy in all
side impact situations.
WARNING
Do not allow the passengers to lean
their heads or bodies onto doors, put
their arms on the doors, stretch their
arms out of the window, or place ob-
jects between the doors and passen-
gers when they are seated on seats
equipped with side and/or curtain air
bags.
WARNING
The side impact air bag is sup-
plemental to the driver’s and the
passenger’s seat belt systems
and is not a substitute for them.
Therefore your seat belts must
be worn at all times while the ve-
hicle is in motion. The air bags
deploy only in certain side im-
pact conditions severe enough
to cause significant injury to the
vehicle occupants.
For best protection from the
side impact air bag system and
to avoid being injured by the de-
ploying side impact air bag, both
front seat occupants should sit
in an upright position with the
3-54
Safety System
seat belt properly fastened. The
driver’s hands should be placed
on the steering wheel at the 9:00
and 3:00 positions. The passen-
ger’s arms and hands should be
placed on their laps.
Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
Use of seat covers could reduce
or prevent the effectiveness of
the system.
Do not install any accessories
on the side or near the side im-
pact air bag.
Do not place any objects over
the air bag or between the air
bag and yourself. Also, do not
attach any objects around the
area the air bag inflates such as
the door, side door glass, front
and rear pillar.
Do not place any objects be-
tween the door and the seat.
They may become dangerous
projectiles if the side air bag in-
flates.
Do not put any objects between
the side air bag label and seat
cushion. It could cause harm if
the vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags to
deploy.
To prevent unexpected deploy-
ment of the side impact air bag
that may result in personal inju-
ry, avoid impact to the side im-
pact sensor when the ignition
switch is on.
If the seat or seat cover is dam-
aged, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer.
Inform the dealer that your vehi-
cle is equipped with side impact
air bags.
Curtain air bag

OQXI039024
OQXI039025
OQXI039025
The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ from the
illustration.
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in
certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only during certain side im-
pact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and im-
pact. The curtain air bags are not de-
signed to deploy in all side impact
situations, collisions from the front or
rear of the vehicle or in most rollover
situations.
3-55

WARNING
In order for side impact and cur-
tain air bags to provide the best
protection, both front seat occu-
pants and both outboard rear
occupants should sit in an up-
right position with the seat belts
properly fastened.
Importantly, children should sit
in a proper child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat.
When children are seated in the
rear outboard seats, they must
be seated in the proper child re-
straint system. Make sure to put
the child restraint system as far
away from the door side as pos-
sible, and secure the child re-
straint system in a locked posi-
tion.
Do not place any objects over
the air bag. Also, do not attach
any objects around the area the
air bag inflates such as the door,
side door glass, front and rear
pillar, roof side rail.
Do not hang other objects ex-
cept clothes, especially hard or
breakable objects. In an acci-
dent, it may cause vehicle dam-
age or personal injury.
Do not allow the passengers to
lean their heads or bodies onto
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects be-
tween the doors and passengers
when they are seated on seats
equipped with side and/or cur-
tain air bags.
Do not open or repair the side
curtain air bags.
Never try to open or repair any
components of the side curtain
air bag system. We recommend
that the system be serviced by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Failure to follow the above men-
tioned instructions can result in
injury or death to the vehicle occu-
pants in an accident.
Why didn’t my air bag go off in a
collision? (Inflation and non-infla-
tion conditions of the air bag)
There are many types of accidents
in which the air bag would not be
expected to provide additional
protection.
These include rear impacts, sec-
ond or third collisions in multiple
impact accidents, as well as low
speed impacts.

WARNING
Do not hit or allow any objects
to impact the locations where air
bags or sensors are installed.
This may cause unexpected air
bag deployment, which could
result in serious personal injury
or death.
If the installation location or an-
gle of the sensors is altered in
any way, the air bags may de-
ploy when they should not or
they may not deploy when they
should, causing severe injury or
death.
Therefore, do not try to perform
maintenance on or around the
air bag sensors. We recommend
that the system be serviced by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Problems may arise if the sen-
sor installation angles are
changed due to the deformation
of the front bumper and body.
We recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Your vehicle has been designed
to absorb impact and deploy the
air bag(s) in certain collisions.
Installing aftermarket bumper
guards or replacing a bumper
with non-genuine parts may ad-
versely affect your vehicles col-
lision and air bag deployment
performance.
Air bag inflation conditions
OSU2I031018L
OSU2I031018L
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate
in certain frontal collision depending
on the crash severity, speed or an-
gles of impact of the front collision.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved
roads or sidewalks, air bags may de-
ploy. Drive carefully on unimproved
roads or on surfaces not designed for
vehicle traffic to prevent unintended
air bag deployment.
3-58
Safety System
OSU2I031021L

OTM038068
Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are de-
signed to inflate when an impact is
detected by side collision sensors de-
pending on the severity from a side
impact collision.
Although the driver’s and front pas-
senger’s air bags are designed to in-
flate only in frontal collisions, they
also may inflate in other types of col-
lisions if the front impact sensors de-
tect a sufficient impact. Side and cur-
tain air bags are designed to inflate
only in side impact collisions, but they
may inflate in other collisions if the
side impact sensors detect a suffi-
cient impact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved
roads, the air bags may deploy. Drive
carefully on unimproved roads or on
surfaces not designed for vehicle traf-
fic to prevent unintended air bag de-
ployment.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
OSU2I031019L
OSU2I031019L
In certain low-speed collisions the
air bags may not deploy. The air
bags are designed not to deploy in
such cases because they may not
provide benefits beyond the pro-
tection of the seat belts in such col-
lisions.
OSU2I031020L
OSU2I031020L
Front air bags are not designed to
inflate in rear collisions, because
occupants are moved backward by
the force of the impact. In this case,
inflated air bags would not be able
to provide any additional benefit.
3-59
03
OSU2I031021L
OSU2I031021L
Front air bags may not inflate in
side impact collisions, because oc-
cupants move to the direction of
the collision, and thus in side im-
pacts, frontal air bag deployment
would not provide additional occu-
pant protection.
OSU2I031040L
OSU2I031040L
In a slant or angled collision, the
force of impact may direct the oc-
cupants in a direction where the air
bags would not be able to provide
any additional benefit, and thus the
sensors may not deploy any air
bags.
OSU2I031023L
OSU2I031023L
Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi-
cle causing it to “ride” under a vehi-
cle with a higher ground clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this “un-
der-ride” situation because decel-
eration forces that are detected by
sensor may be significantly re-
duced by such “under-ride” colli-
sions.
OED036104
OED036104
Front air bags may not inflate in all
rollover accidents when the SRS
Control Module (SRSCM) indi-
cates that the front air bag deploy-
ment would not provide additional
occupant protection.
3-60
Safety System
i Information
The side and/or curtain air bags may
inflate when the vehicle is rolled over
by a side impact collision, if the vehicle
is equipped with side and/or curtain
air bags.
OSU2I031022L
OSU2I031022L
Air bags may not inflate if the vehi-
cle collides with objects such as
utility poles or trees, where the
point of impact is concentrated and
the collision energy is absorbed by
the vehicle structure.
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-free
and so there are no parts you can
safely service by yourself. If the SRS
air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate for 6 sec after IGN “ON” or con-
tinuously remains on, we recommend
that the system be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
We recommend that the any work on
the SRS system, such as removing,
installing, repairing, or any work on
the steering wheel, the front passen-
ger’s panel, front seats and roof rails
be performed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Improper handling
of the SRS system may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
WARNING
Modification to SRS compo-
nents or wiring, including the
addition of any kind of badges
to the pad covers or modifica-
tions to the body structure, can
adversely affect SRS perfor-
mance and lead to possible inju-
ry.
For cleaning the air bag pad
covers, use only a soft, dry cloth
or one which has been moist-
ened with plain water. Solvents
or cleaners could adversely af-
fect the air bag covers and prop-
er deployment of the system.
3-61
03
No objects should be placed
over or near the air bag modules
on the steering wheel, instru-
ment panel, and the front pas-
senger’s panel above the glove
box, because any such object
could cause harm if the vehicle
is in a crash severe enough to
cause the air bags to inflate.
If the air bags inflate, we recom-
mend that the system be re-
placed by an authorized HYUN-
DAI dealer.
Do not tamper with or discon-
nect SRS wiring, or other com-
ponents of the SRS system. Do-
ing so could result in injury, due
to accidental inflation of the air
bags or by rendering the SRS in-
operative.
If components of the air bag
system must be discarded, or if
the vehicle must be scrapped,
certain safety precautions must
be observed. An authorized
HYUNDAI dealer knows these
precautions and can give you
the necessary information. Fail-
ure to follow these precautions
and procedures could increase
the risk of personal injury.
If your car was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on
the flooring, you shouldn’t try to
start the engine; we recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Additional safety precautions
Never let passengers ride in the
cargo area or on top of a fold-
ed-down back seat. All occupants
should sit upright, fully back in their
seats with their seat belts on and
their feet on the floor.
• Passengers should not move
out of or change seats while the
vehicle is moving. A passenger
who is not wearing a seat belt
during a crash or emergency stop
can be thrown against the inside of
the vehicle, against other occu-
pants, or out of the vehicle.
Each seat belt is designed to re-
strain one occupant. If more than
one person uses the same seat
belt, they could be seriously in-
jured or killed in a collision.
Do not use any accessories on
seat belts. Devices claiming to im-
prove occupant comfort or reposi-
tion the seat belt can reduce the
protection provided by the seat belt
and increase the chance of serious
injury in a crash.
• Passengers should not place
hard or sharp objects between
themselves and the air bags.
Carrying hard or sharp objects on
your lap or in your mouth can result
in injuries if an air bag inflates.
Keep occupants away from the
air bag covers. All occupants
should sit upright, fully back in their
seats with their seat belts on and
their feet on the floor. If occupants
are too close to the air bag covers,
they could be injured if the air bags
inflate.
3-62
Safety System
Do not attach or place objects
on or near the air bag covers.
Any object attached to or placed
on the front air bag covers could
interfere with the proper operation
of the air bags.
Do not modify the front seats.
Modification of the front seats
could interfere with the operation
of the supplemental restraint sys-
tem sensing components air bags.
• Do not place items under the
front seats. Placing items under
the front seats could interfere with
the operation of the supplemental
restraint system sensing compo-
nents and wiring harnesses.
Never hold an infant or child on
your lap. The infant or child could
be seriously injured or killed in the
event of a crash. All infants and
children should be properly re-
strained in appropriate child safety
seats or seat belts in the rear seat.
WARNING
Sitting improperly or out of posi-
tion can cause occupants to be
shifted too close to a deploying
air bag, strike the interior struc-
ture or be thrown from the vehi-
cle resulting in serious injury or
death.
Always sit upright with the seat-
back in an upright position, cen-
tered on the seat cushion with
your seat belt on, legs comfort-
ably extended and your feet on
the floor.
Adding equipment to or modify-
ing your air bag-equipped vehi-
cle
If you modify your vehicle by chang-
ing your vehicle’s frame, bumper sys-
tem, front end or side sheet metal or
ride height, this may affect the opera-
tion of your vehicle’s air bag system.

If the system repeatedly does not rec-
ognize the coding of the key, it is rec-
ommended that you contact your
HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
immobilizer password is a custom-
er unique password and should be
kept confidential.
NOTICE
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobiliz-
er system. It is designed to give
years of trouble-free service, how-
ever you should avoid exposure
to moisture, static electricity and
rough handling. Immobilizer sys-
tem malfunction could occur.
Immobilizer system
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobilizer sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognize
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the LOCK/
OFF position, then place the ignition
switch to the ON position again.
The system may not recognize your
key’s coding if another immobilizer
key or other metal object (for exam-
ple, key chain) is near the key. The
engine may not start because the
metal may interrupt the transponder
signal from transmitting normally.
Disclaimer:
The system is designed in such a way
that it makes vehicle theft difficult if
its circuit and battery connection is
uninterrupted.

Motor Driven Power Steering
(MDPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is off or if the
power steering system becomes in-
operative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Also, the steering effort becomes
lighter as the vehicle’s speed increas-
es and becomes heavier as the vehi-
cle’s speed decreases for better con-
trol of the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
If the Motor Driven Power Steering
System does not operate normally,
the warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate on the instrument cluster. The
steering wheel may become diffi-
cult to control or operate. Take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked as soon as possible.
i Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
The steering effort may be high im-
mediately after placing the ignition
switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the MDPS system diagnos-
tics. When the diagnostics is com-
pleted, the steering wheel will return
to its normal condition.
When the battery voltage is low, you
might have to put more steering ef-
fort. However, it is a temporary con-
dition so that it will return to nor-
mal condition after charging the
battery.
A click noise may be heard from the
MDPS relay after the ignition switch
is placed to the ON or LOCK/OFF
position.
Motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at stop or at a low driving
speed.
When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperature, abnor-
mal noise may occur. If temperature
rises, the noise will disappear. This
is a normal condition.
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You may lose steer-
ing control and cause severe per-
sonal injury, death or accidents.

ly or totally latched and the per-
son is unable to get out, serious
injury or death could occur due
to lack of ventilation, exhaust
fumes and rapid heat build-up,
or because of exposure to cold
weather conditions. The cargo
area is also a highly dangerous
location in the event of a crash
because it is not a protected oc-
cupant space but is a part of the
vehicle’s crush zone.
• Your vehicle should be kept
locked and keys should be kept
out of the reach of children.
Parents should teach their chil-
dren about the dangers of play-
ing in cargo areas.

turn it counterclockwise. You may
hear a hissing noise as the pres-
sure inside the tank equalizes.
5. Place the cap on the fuel filler door
(3).
WARNING
Your diesel vehicle is equipped
with the specially-designed
breakaway valve inside the filler
inlet to prevent accidental fuel
blending with petrol. The fuel in-
let of your diesel vehicle cannot
be fitted with a standard petrol
nozzle. Do not forcefully insert a
standard petrol nozzle into the
filler inlet of your diesel vehicle.
It may damage your vehicle.
Some gas stations may still use
standard petrol nozzles for die-
sel refueling. If you find that a
diesel nozzle is narrower than
the fuel filler inlet diameter of
your diesel vehicle, we recom-
mend you to find/visit another
gas station, which is equipped
with standard diesel nozzles.
Fully insert a standard diesel
nozzle into the filler inlet to open
the breakaway valve. If the noz-
zle is not fully inserted into the
filler inlet, it causes diesel fuels
to flow out of the fuel tank.

i Information
If the fuel filler door does not open be-
cause ice has formed around it, tap
lightly or push on the door to break the
ice and release the door. Do not pry on
the door. If necessary, spray around
the door with an approved de-icer fluid
(do not use radiator anti-freeze) or
move the vehicle to a warm place and
allow the ice to melt.

it clockwise until it “clicks” once.
This indicates that the cap is se-
curely tightened.
2. Close the fuel filler door (1) and
push it lightly and make sure that it
is securely closed.
WARNING
Petrol is highly flammable and ex-
plosive. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
• Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station.
Before refueling, note the loca-
tion of the Emergency Petrol
Shut-Off,if available, at the gas
station.
Before touching the fuel nozzle,
you should eliminate the poten-
tial build-up of static electricity
by touching a metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle,
or other gas source, with your
bare hand.
Do not use cellular phones while
refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially ig-
nite fuel vapors and cause a fire.
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling.
You can generate a buildup of
static electricity by touching,
rubbing or sliding against any
item or fabric capable of produc-
ing static electricity. Static elec-
tricity discharge can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. If you
must re-enter the vehicle, you
should once again eliminate po-
tentially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, nozzle
or other petrol source, with your
bare hand.
When using an approved porta-
ble fuel container, be sure to
place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact between
your bare hand and the vehicle
should be maintained until the
filling is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store petrol.
• When refueling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park) po-
sition (for Automatic transmis-
sion) or first gear or R (Reverse,
for manual transmission), set
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF
position. Sparks produced by
electrical components related to
the engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
5-44
Convenience Features
Do not use matches or a lighter
and do not smoke or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while at
a gas station, especially during
refueling.
Do not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
petrol spillage.
If a fire breaks out during refuel-
ing, leave the vicinity of the ve-
hicle, and immediately contact
the manager of the gas station
and then contact the local fire
department. Follow any safety
instructions they provide.
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it
can cover your clothes or skin
and thus subject you to the risk
of fire and burns. Always re-
move the fuel cap carefully and
slowly. If the cap is venting fuel
or if you hear a hissing sound,
wait until the condition stops
before completely removing the
cap.
Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an
accident.
i Information
Make sure to refuel your vehicle ac-
cording to the “Fuel Requirements”
suggested in the 1 chapter.
Do not spill fuel on the exterior sur-
faces of the vehicle. Any type of fuel
spilled on painted surfaces may
damage the paint.
NOTICE
If the fuel filler cap requires re-
placement, use only a genuine
HYUNDAI cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An in-
correct fuel filler cap can result in
a serious malfunction of the fuel
system or emission control sys-
tem.

Operation Tips
To keep dust or unpleasant fumes
from entering the car through the
ventilation system, temporarily set
the air intake control to the recircu-
lated air position. Return the con-
trol to the fresh air position when
the irritation has passed. This will
help keep the driver alert and com-
fortable.
To prevent inside of the windshield
from fogging, set the air intake
control to the fresh air position and
fan speed to the desired position,
turn on the air conditioning system,
and adjust the temperature control
to desired temperature.
Air conditioning (if equipped)
HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems
are filled with a R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the engine.
2. Push the air conditioning button.
3. Set the mode to the Face Level
mode.
4. Set the air intake control to the re-
circulated air position. However,
prolonged operation of the recircu-
lated air position will excessively
dry the air. In this case, change the
air position.
5. Adjust the fan speed control and
temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
When maximum cooling is desired,
set the temperature control to the ex-
treme left position then set the fan
speed control to the highest speed.
NOTICE
The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained and
certified technicians to insure
proper and safe operation.
The refrigerant system should
be serviced in a well-ventilated
place.
• The air conditioning evaporator
(cooling coil) shall never be re-
paired or replaced with one re-
moved from a used or salvaged

fied (and labeled) as meeting
SAE Standard J2842.
NOTICE
• When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the tempera-
ture gauge closely while driving
up hills or in heavy traffic when
outside temperatures are high.
Air conditioning system opera-
tion may cause engine overheat-
ing. Continue to use the fan but
turn the air conditioning system
off if the temperature gauge in-
dicates engine overheating.
When opening the windows in

Convenience Features
Air conditioning system operation
tips
If the vehicle has been parked in
direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
After sufficient cooling has been
achieved, switch back from the re-
circulated air to the fresh outside
air position.
To help reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the win-
dows closed.
Use the air conditioning system ev-
ery month only for a few minutes to
ensure maximum system perfor-
mance.
If you operate air conditioner ex-
cessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air
and that of the windshield could
cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up, causing loss
of visibility. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button to
the position and fan speed
control to the lower speed.

Climate control air filter
This filter is installed behind the glove
box. It filters the dust or other pollut-
ants that enter the vehicle through
the heating and air conditioning sys-
tem.
We recommend the climate control
air filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
maintenance schedule. If the car is
being driven in severe conditions
such as dusty or rough roads, more
frequent air conditioner filter inspec-
tions and changes are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, we recommend the system be
checked at an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Checking the amount of air con-
ditioner refrigerant and com-
pressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air condi-
tioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a bad influence on the air condi-
tioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
i Information
Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the car is being driven in severe
conditions such as dusty, rough
roads, more frequent climate con-
trol air filter inspections and chang-
es are required.
When the air flow rate suddenly de-
creases, we recommend that the sys-
tem be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
It is important that the correct type
and amount of oil and refrigerant
is used. Otherwise, damage to the
compressor and abnormal system
operation may occur. To prevent
damage, the air conditioning sys-
tem in your vehicle should only be
serviced by trained and certified
technicians.
WARNING
Vehicles equipped with R-134a
Since the refrigerant is
operated at very high
pressure, the air condi-
tioning system should
only be serviced by
trained and certified technicians.
All refrigerants should be reclaimed
with proper equipment.
Venting refrigerants directly to the
atmosphere is harmful to individu-
als and environment. Failure to
heed these warnings can lead to
serious injuries.

NOTICE
• When using the air conditioning
system, monitor the tempera-
ture gauge closely while driving
up hills or in heavy traffic when
outside temperatures are high.
Air conditioning system opera-
tion may cause engine overheat-
ing. Continue to use the fan but
turn the air conditioning system
off if the temperature gauge in-
dicates engine overheating.
When opening the windows in
humid weather air conditioning
may create water droplets inside
the vehicle. Since excessive wa-
ter droplets may cause damage

Air conditioning system operation
tips
If the vehicle has been parked in
direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
After sufficient cooling has been
achieved, switch back from the re-
circulated mode to the fresh mode.
To help reduce moisture inside of
the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the win-
dows closed.
Use the air conditioning system ev-
ery month only for a few minutes to
ensure maximum system perfor-
mance.
If you operate air conditioner ex-
cessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air
and that of the windshield could
cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up, causing loss
of visibility. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button to
the position and fan speed
control to the lower speed.

system charges only the Qi-enabled
cellular phones ( ). Read the label
on the cellular phone accessory cov-
er or visit your cellular phone manu-
facturer’s website to check whether
your cellular phone supports the Qi
technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled cellular
phone on the wireless charging unit.
1. Remove all items including smart
key on wireless charging pad. If
not, the wireless charging will be
interrupted. Place the cellular
phone on the center of the charging
pad.
2. You can turn ON or OFF the wire-
less charging function in the user
settings mode on the instrument
cluster. For further information, re-
fer to the “Cluster Display Modes”

sage on the cluster display if the cel-
lular phone is still on the wireless
charging unit after the engine is
turned OFF and the front door is
opened.
i Information
For some manufacturers’ cellular
phones, the system may not warn you
even though the cellular phone is left
on the wireless charging unit. This is
due to the particular characteristic of
the cellular phone and not a malfunc-
tion of the wireless charging.

as a coin, between the wireless
cellular phone charging system
and the cellular phone.
• When charging some cellular
phones with a self-protection
feature, the wireless charging
speed may decrease and the
wireless charging may stop.
If the cellular phone has a thick
cover, the wireless charging
may not be possible.
If the cell phone is not complete-
ly contacting the charging pad,
wireless charging may not oper-
ate properly.
Some magnetic items like credit
cards, phone cards or rail tick-
ets may be damaged if left with
the cellular phone during the
charging process.
When any cellular phone with-
out a wireless charging function
or a metallic object is placed on
the charging pad, a small noise
may sound. This small sound is
due to the vehicle discerning
compatibility of the object
placed on the charging pad. It
does not affect your vehicle or
the cellular phone in any way.
Smaller handset users (for ex-
ample, IPhone 8) may face inter-
mittent charging issues due to
its small size. (place the Smart
Phone at Center of the PAD)
To prevent liquid from damag-
ing the wireless smart phone
charging system in your vehicle,
be sure not to spill liquid over
the charging system when
charging your phone

How vehicle radio works
FM reception
FM reception
OJF045308L
OJF045308L
AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. This signal is then processed by
the radio and sent to your vehicle
speakers.
When a strong radio signal has
reached your vehicle, the precise en-
gineering of your audio system en-
sures the best possible quality repro-
duction. However, in some cases the
signal coming to your vehicle may not
be strong and clear.
This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions in
the area.
AM reception
OJF045309L
OJF045309L
AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broad-
casts. This is because AM radio
waves are transmitted at low frequen-
cies. These long, low frequency radio
waves can follow the curvature of the
earth rather than travelling straight
out into the atmosphere. In addition,
they curve around obstructions so
that they can provide better signal
coverage.
FM radio station
OJF045310L
OJF045310L
FM broadcasts are transmitted at
high frequencies and do not bend to
follow the earth’s surface. Because of
this, FM broadcasts generally begin
to fade at short distances from the
station. Also, FM signals are easily
affected by buildings, mountains, or
other obstructions.
5-106
Convenience Features
These can result in certain listening
conditions which might lead you to be-
lieve a problem exists with your radio.
The following conditions are normal
and do not indicate radio trouble :
FM reception
FM reception
JBM004
JBM004
Fading - As your vehicle moves
away from the radio station, the
signal will weaken and sound will
begin to fade. When this occurs,
we suggest that you select another
stronger station.
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or
large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can dis-
turb the signal causing static or
fluttering noises to occur. Reducing
the treble level may lessen this ef-
fect until the disturbance clears.
FM reception
FM reception
OJF045311L
OJF045311L
Station Swapping - As a FM signal
weakens, another more powerful
signal near the same frequency
may begin to play. This is because
your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs,
select another station with a stron-
ger signal.
• Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio
signals being received from sever-
al directions can cause distortion
or fluttering. This can be caused by
a direct and reflected signal from
the same station, or by signals
from two stations with close fre-
quencies. If this occurs, select an-
other station until the condition has
passed.
5-107
05
Using a cellular phone or a two-
way radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with
the audio equipment. In such a case,
use the cellular phone at a place as
far as possible from the audio equip-
ment.
NOTICE
When using a communication sys-
tem such as a cellular phone or a
radio set inside the vehicle, a sep-
arate external antenna must be fit-
ted. When a cellular phone or a ra-
dio set is used with an internal
antenna alone, it may interfere with
the vehicle’s electrical system and
adversely affect safe operation of
the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not use a cellular phone while
driving. Stop at a safe location to
use a cellular phone.

WARNING
Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is toxic. Breathing CO can cause uncon-
sciousness and death.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide which cannot be seen or smelled.
Do not inhale engine exhaust.
If at any time you smell engine exhaust inside the vehicle, open the windows
immediately. Exposure to CO can cause unconsciousness and death by
asphyxiation.
Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to
change the oil or for any other purpose. If you hear a change in the sound of the
exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the
vehicle, we recommend that the exhaust system be checked as soon as possi-
ble by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a
hazardous practice. Run the engine only long enough to start the engine and to
move the vehicle out of the garage.
Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the vehi-
cle.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the
vehicle , be sure to do so only in an open area with the air intake set at “Fresh”
and fan control set to high so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
Keep the air intakes clear.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, keep the ventilation air
intakes located in front of the windshield clear of snow, ice, leaves, or other
obstructions.
If you must drive with the tailgate/trunk open:
Close all windows.

you.
BEFORE DRIVING
6-5
06
WARNING
NEVER drink or take drugs and
drive.
Drinking or taking drugs and driv-
ing is dangerous and may result in
an accident and SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH.
Drunk driving is the number one
contributor to the highway death
toll each year. Even a small amount
of alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment. Just
one drink can reduce your ability
to respond to changing conditions
and emergencies and your reac-
tion time gets worse with each
additional drink.
Driving while under the influence
of drugs is as dangerous as or
more dangerous than driving
under the influence of alcohol.
You are much more likely to have a
serious accident if you drink or
take drugs and drive. If you are
drinking or taking drugs, don’t
drive. Do not ride with a driver who
has been drinking or taking drugs.
Choose a designated driver or call
a taxi.

Manual transmission operation
The manual transmission has 6 for-
ward gears. The transmission is fully
synchronized in all forward gears so
shifting to either a higher or a lower
gear is easily accomplished
WARNING
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever is
in 1st gear when the vehicle is
parked on a uphill and in R
(Reverse) on a downhill, set the
parking brake, and place the igni-
tion switch in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. Unexpected vehicle move-
ment may occur if these
precautions are not followed.
To shift to R (Reverse), make sure
the vehicle has completely stopped,
and then move the shift lever to neu-
tral before moving into R (Reverse).
When you’ve come to a complete
stop and it’s hard to shift into 1st gear
or R (Reverse):
1. Put the shift lever in neutral and
release the clutch pedal.
2. Depress the clutch pedal, and then
shift into first or R (Reverse) gear.

Using the clutch (if equipped)
The clutch pedal should be depressed
all the way to the floor before:
- Starting the engine
The engine will not start without
depressing the clutch pedal.
- Shifting
To start your vehicle, slowly
release the clutch pedal and
depress the accelerator.
When releasing the clutch pedal,
release it slowly. The clutch pedal
should always be released while driv-
ing.
NOTICE
To prevent unnecessary wear or
damage to the clutch:
Do not rest your foot on the
clutch pedal while driving.
Do not hold the vehicle with the
clutch on an incline, while wait-
ing for the traffic light, etc.
Always depress the clutch pedal
down fully to prevent noise or
damage.
Do not start with the 2nd (sec-
ond) gear engaged except when
you start on a slippery road.
Depress the clutch pedal all the
way and be careful not to
depress the pedal again before
returning to the upright position
after you release the pedal. If
you depress the pedal before
returning to the original position
repeatedly, it may cause the
clutch system failure.
Downshifting
Downshift when you must slow down
in heavy traffic or drive up a steep hill
to prevent engine load.
Also, downshifting reduces the
chance of stalling and can accelerate
when you need to increase your
speed again.
When the vehicle is going downhill,
downshifting helps maintain safe
speed by providing brake power from
the engine and enables less wear on
the brakes.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine,
clutch and transmission:
When downshifting from 5th
gear to 4th gear, be careful not
to inadvertently push the shift
lever sideways engaging the
2nd gear. A drastic downshift
may cause the engine speed to
increase to the point the
tachometer will enter the red-
zone.
Do not downshift more than two
gear at a time or downshift the
gear when the engine is running
at high speed (5,000 RPM or
higher). Such a downshifting
may damage the engine, clutch
and the transmission.
6-20
While Driving
Good driving practices
Never take the vehicle out of gear
and coast down a hill. This is
extremely dangerous.
Don’t “ride” the brakes. This can
cause the brakes and related parts
to overheat and malfunction.
When you are driving down a long
hill, slow down and shift to a lower
gear. Engine braking will help slow
down the vehicle.
Slow down before shifting to a
lower gear. This will help avoid
over-revving the engine, which can
cause damage.
Slow down when you encounter
cross winds. This gives you much
better control of your vehicle.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to
the transmission.
Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
WARNING
Do not use the engine brake (shift-
ing from a higher gear to lower
gear) rapidly on slippery roads.
The vehicle may slip causing an
accident.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. In
a collision, an unbelted occu-
pant is significantly more likely
to be seriously injured or killed
than a properly belted occupant.
Avoid high speeds when corner-
ing or turning.
Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of
your vehicle at highway speeds.
Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off the
roadway and the driver over
steers to reenter the roadway.
In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharp-
ly. Instead, slow down before
pulling back into the travel
lanes.
HYUNDAI recommends you fol-
low all posted speed limits.

While Driving
Dual clutch transmission oper-
ation
The dual clutch transmission has
seven forward speeds and one
reverse speed.
The individual speeds are selected
automatically when the shift lever is
in the D (Drive) position.
The dual clutch transmission can
be thought of as an automatically
shifting manual transmission. It
gives the driving feel of a manual
transmission, yet provides the
ease of a fully automatic transmis-
sion.
When D (Drive) is selected, the
transmission will automatically
shift through the gears similar to a
conventional automatic transmis-
sion. Unlike a traditional automatic
transmission, the gear shifting can
sometimes be felt and heard as the
actuators engage the clutches and
the gears are selected.
The dual clutch transmission incor-
porates a dry-type dual clutch
mechanism, which allows for bet-
ter acceleration performance and
increased fuel efficiency while driv-
ing. But it differs from a conven-
tional automatic transmission
because it does not incorporate a
torque converter. Instead, the tran-
sition from one gear to the next is
managed by clutch slip, especially
at lower speeds.
As a result, shifts are sometimes
more noticeable, and a light vibra-
tion can be felt as the transmission
shaft speed is matched with the
engine shaft speed. This is a nor-
mal condition of the dual clutch
transmission.
The dry-type clutch transfers
torque more directly and provides
a direct-drive feeling which may
feel different from a conventional
automatic transmission. This may
be more noticeable when launch-
ing the vehicle from a stop or when
traveling at low, stop-and-go vehi-
cle speeds.
When rapidly accelerating from a
lower vehicle speed, the engine
rpm may increase dramatically as
a result of clutch slip as the dual
clutch transmission selects the
correct gear. This is a normal con-
dition.
When accelerating from a stop on
an incline, press the accelerator
smoothly and gradually to avoid
any shudder feeling or jerkiness.
When traveling at a lower vehicle
speed, if you release the accelerator
pedal quickly, you may feel engine
braking before the transmission
changes gears. This engine braking
feeling is similar to operating a man-
ual transmission at low speed.
When driving downhill, you may
wish to move the gear shift lever to
Manual Shift mode and downshift
to a lower gear in order to control
your speed without using the brake
pedal excessively.
When you turn the engine on and
off, you may hear clicking sounds
as the system goes through a self-
test. This is a normal sound for the
dual clutch transmission.
During the first 1,500 km (1000
miles), you may feel that the vehi-
cle may not be smooth when accel-
erating at low speed. During this
break-in period, the shift quality
and performance of your new vehi-
cle is continuously optimized.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death:
ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for peo-
ple, especially children, before
shifting a vehicle into D (Drive)
or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then
set the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur if these precautions are
not followed.
Do not use aggressive engine
braking (shifting from a higher
gear to a lower gear) on slippery
roads. This could cause the tires
to slip and may result in an acci-
dent.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into D (Drive) or
R (Reverse).
Do not put the shift lever in N
(Neutral) while driving.
WARNING
If the transmission cannot shift
into Drive or Reverse, the position
indicator D or R) on the cluster will
blink. We recommend that you
contact an authorized Hyundai
dealer to have the system checked.

of you before moving the vehicle
forward. Then hold the vehicle on
the incline with the foot brake.
If the vehicle is held on a hill by
applying the accelerator pedal or
by creeping with the brake pedal
disengaged, the clutch and trans-
mission may overheat which can
result in damage. At this time, a

Shift-lock system
For your safety, the dual clutch trans-
mission has a shift-lock system which
prevents shifting the transmission
from P (Park) into R (Reverse) unless
the brake pedal is depressed.
To shift the transmission from P
(Park) into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.

position, apply the parking brake, and
place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position. Take the Key with you
when exiting the vehicle.
WARNING
When you stay in the vehicle with
the engine running, be careful not
to depress the accelerator pedal
for a long period of time. The
engine or exhaust system may
overheat and start a fire.
The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep away
from the exhaust system compo-
nents.
Do not stop or park over flamma-
ble materials, such as dry grass,
paper or leaves. They may ignite
and cause a fire.

Good driving practices
Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in
motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Depressing both accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time can
trigger logic for engine power
reduction to assure vehicle decel-
eration. Vehicle acceleration will
resume after the brake pedal is
released.
When driving in Manual shift mode,
slow down before shifting to a
lower gear. Otherwise, the lower
gear may not be engaged if the
engine rpms are outside of the
allowable range.
Always apply the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle. Do not
depend on placing the transmis-
sion in P (Park) to keep the vehicle
from moving.
Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.

While Driving
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death:
ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for peo-
ple, especially children, before
shifting a vehicle into D (Drive)
or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then
set the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement can
occur if these precautions are
not followed.
Do not use the engine brake
(shifting from a high gear to
lower gear) rapidly on slippery
roads. The vehicle may slip
causing an accident.
Shift lever position
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when
the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into P (Park).
To shift from P (Park), you must
depress firmly on the brake pedal and
make sure your foot is off the acceler-
ator pedal.
The shift lever must be in P (Park)
before turning the engine off.
WARNING
Shifting into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion may cause
you to lose control of the vehi-
cle.
After the vehicle has stopped,
always make sure the shift lever
is in P (Park), apply the parking
brake, and turn the engine off.
• When parking on an incline,
place the shift lever in P (Park)
and apply the parking brake to
prevent the vehicle from rolling
downhill.
For safety, always engage the
parking brake with the shift lever
in the P (Park) position except
for the case of emergency park-
ing.
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into or out of R
(Reverse); you may damage the
transmission if you shift into R
(Reverse) while the vehicle is in
motion.
6-33
06
N (Neutral)
The wheels and transmission are not
engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart
a stalled engine, or if it is necessary
to stop with the engine ON. Shift into
P (Park) if you need to leave your
vehicle for any reason.
Always depress the brake pedal
when you are shifting from N (Neutral)
to another gear.
WARNING
Do not shift into gear unless your
foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
Shifting into gear when the engine
is running at high speed can cause
the vehicle to move very rapidly.
You could lose control of the vehi-
cle and hit people or objects.
D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position.
The transmission will automatically
shift through a 6-gear sequence, pro-
viding the best fuel economy and
power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or driving uphill, depress
the accelerator fully. The transmis-
sion will automatically downshift to
the next lower gear (or gears, as
appropriate).
The DRIVE MODE switch, located on
the shift lever console, allows the
driver to switch from COMFORT
mode to SPORT mode.
For more details, refer to “Drive
Mode Integrated Control System”
later in this chapter.
Manual shift mode
OSU2I069014
OSU2I069014
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, manual shift mode is select-
ed by pushing the shift lever from the
D (Drive) position into the manual
gate. To return to D (Drive) range
operation, push the shift lever back
into the main gate.
In manual shift mode, moving the
shift lever backwards and forwards
will allow you to select the desired
range of gears for the current driving
conditions.
+ (Up): Push the lever forward once
to shift up one gear.
- (Down): Pull the lever backwards
once to shift down one gear.
6-34
While Driving
i Information
Only the six forward gears can be
selected. To reverse or park the
vehicle, move the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) or P (Park) position as
required.
Downshifts are made automatically
when the vehicle slows down. When
the vehicle stops, 1st gear is auto-
matically selected.
When the engine rpm approaches
the red zone the transmission will
upshift automatically.
If the driver presses the lever to +
(Up) or - (Down) position, the trans-
mission may not make the requested
gear change if the next gear is out-
side of the allowable engine rpm
range. The driver must execute
upshifts in accordance with road
conditions, taking care to keep the
engine rpms below the red zone.
When driving on a slippery road,
push the shift lever forward into the
+ (Up) position. This causes the
transmission to shift into the 2nd
gear which is better for smooth
driving on a slippery road. Push the
shift lever to the - (Down) side to
shift back to the 1st gear.
Paddle shifter (if equipped)
OSU2I069015
OSU2I069015
The paddle shifter is available when
the shift lever is in the D (Drive) posi-
tion or the manual shift mode.

The paddle shifter will operate when
the vehicle speed is more than
10km/h.
Pull the [+] or [-] paddle shifter once
to shift up or down one gear and the
system changes from automatic
mode to manual mode.
When the vehicle speed is lower than
10km/h, if you depress the accelera-
tor pedal for more than 5 seconds or
if you move the shift lever from D
(Drive) to manual shift mode and
move it from manual shift mode to D
(Drive) again, the system changes
from manual mode to automatic
mode.

Transmission high temperature
• Under certain conditions, such as
repeated stop-and go launches on
steep grades, sudden take off or
acceleration, or other harsh driving
conditions, the transmission clutch
temperatures will increase exces-
sively. Finally the clutch in trans-
mission could be overheated.
When the clutch is overheated, the
safe protection mode engages and
the gear position indicator on the
cluster blinks with a chime. At this
time, “Transmission temp. is high!
Stop safely” warning message will
appear on the cluster display and
driving may not be smooth.
If this occurs, pull over to a safe
location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
If you ignore this warning, the driv-
ing condition may become worse.
You may experience abrupt shifts,
or Jerkiness. To return to the nor-
mal driving condition, stop the vehi-
cle and apply the foot brake or shift
into P (Park). Then allow the trans-
mission to cool for a few minutes
with engine on, before driving off.
When possible, drive the vehicle

and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
When the message “Transmission
cooled down. Resume driving
(Trans cooled. Resume driving)”
appears you can continue to drive
your vehicle.
When possible, drive the vehicle
smoothly.
If any of the warning messages in
the cluster display continue to
blink, for your safety, we recom-
mend that you contact an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer and have
the system checked.
6-36
While Driving
Shift-lock system
For your safety, the automatic trans-
mission has a shift-lock system which
prevents shifting the transmission
from P (Park) into R (Reverse) unless
the brake pedal is depressed.
To shift the transmission from P
(Park) into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or place the igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake, and
place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position. Take the Key with you
when exiting the vehicle.
WARNING
When you stay in the vehicle with
the engine running, be careful not
to depress the accelerator pedal
for a long period of time. The
engine or exhaust system may
overheat and start a fire.
The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep away
from the exhaust system compo-
nents.
Do not stop or park over flamma-
ble materials, such as dry grass,
paper or leaves. They may ignite
and cause a fire.
Good driving practices
Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in
motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
When driving in manual shift mode,
slow down before shifting to a
lower gear. Otherwise, the lower
gear may not be engaged if the
engine rpms are outside of the
allowable range.
Always apply the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle. Do not
depend on placing the transmis-
sion in P (Park) to keep the vehicle
from moving.
6-37
06
Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. In
a collision, an unbelted occu-
pant is significantly more likely
to be seriously injured or killed
than a properly belted occupant.
Avoid high speeds when corner-
ing or turning.
Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of
your vehicle at highway speeds.
Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off the
roadway and the driver over
steers to reenter the roadway.
In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharp-
ly. Instead, slow down before
pulling back into the travel
lanes.
HYUNDAI recommends you fol-
low all posted speed limits.
i
Information
- Kickdown Mechanism
(if equipped)
Use the kickdown mechanism for max-
imum acceleration. Depress the accel-
erator pedal beyond the pressure point.
The automatic transmission will shift
to a lower gear depending on the engine
speed.
6-38
While Driving
Power brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
If the engine is not running or is turned
off while driving, the power assist for
the brakes will not work. You can still
stop your vehicle by applying greater
force to the brake pedal than typical.
The stopping distance, however, will
be longer than with power brakes.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially deplet-
ed each time the brake pedal is
applied. Do not pump the brake pedal
when the power assist has been inter-
rupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when nec-
essary to maintain steering control on
slippery surfaces.
i Information
When the brake pedal is depressed
under certain driving conditions or
weather conditions, you may tempo-
rarily hear a noise. This is normal
and does not indicate a problem
with your brakes.
While driving on a road with deic-
ing chemicals, brake noise or abnor-
mal tire wear may occur due to deic-
ing chemicals. In a safe traffic
condition, additionally apply the
brakes to remove deicing chemicals
on the brake discs and pads.
WARNING
Take the following precautions:
Do not drive with your foot rest-
ing on the brake pedal. This will
create abnomally high brake
temperatures, excessive brake
lining and pad wear, and
increased stopping distances.
When descending a long or
steep hill, shift to a lower gear
and avoid continuous applica-
tion of the brakes. Applying the
brakes continuously will cause
the brakes to overheat and could
result in a temporary loss of
braking performance.
Wet brakes may impair the vehi-
cle’s ability to safely slow down;
the vehicle may also pull to one
side when the brakes are
applied. Applying the brakes
lightly will indicate whether they
have been affected in this way.
Always test your brakes in this
fashion after driving through
deep water. To dry the brakes,
lightly tap the brake pedal to
heat up the brakes while main-
taining a safe forward speed
until brake performance returns
to normal. Avoid driving at high
speeds until the brakes function
correctly.
Disc brakes wear indicator
When your brake pads are worn and
new pads are required, you will hear
a high pitched warning sound from
your front or rear brakes. You may
hear this sound come and go or it
may occur whenever you depress the
brake pedal.
NOTICE
To avoid costly brake repairs, do
not continue to drive with worn
brake pads.
i Information
Always replace brake pads as complete
front or rear axle sets.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
An Anti-Lock Braking System
(ABS) will not prevent accidents
due to improper or dangerous driv-
ing maneuvers. Even though vehi-
cle control is improved during
emergency braking, always main-
tain a safe distance between you
and objects ahead of you. Vehicle
speeds should always be reduced
during extreme road conditions.
The braking distance for cars
equipped with ABS may be longer
than for those without these sys-
tems in the following road condi-
tions.
Drive your vehicle at reduced
speeds during the following condi-
tions:
Rough, gravel or snow-covered
roads.
On roads where the road sur-
face is pitted or has different
surface height.
Tire chains are installed on your
vehicle.
The safety features of an ABS
equipped vehicle should not be
tested by high speed driving or
cornering. This could endanger
the safety of yourself or others.
ABS is an electronic braking system
that helps prevent a braking skid.
ABS allows the driver to steer and
brake at the same time.
6-52
While Driving
Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to
pump your brakes. Depress your
brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sen-
sation in the brake pedal. This is nor-
mal and it means your ABS is active.
ABS does not reduce the time or dis-
tance it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that results
from sudden changes in direction,
such as trying to take a corner too
fast or making a sudden lane change.
Always drive at a safe speed for the
road and weather conditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stabili-
ty. Always steer moderately when
braking hard. Severe or sharp steer-
ing wheel movement can still cause
your vehicle to veer into oncoming
traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake sys-
tem may result in a longer stopping
distance than for vehicles equipped
with a conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light ( ) will stay
on for several seconds after the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
During that time, the ABS will go
through self-diagnosis and the light
will go off if everything is normal. If
the light stays on, you may have a
problem with your ABS. We recom-
mend that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
WARNING
If the ABS warning light ( ) is on
and stays on, you may have a
problem with the ABS. Your power
brakes will work normally. To
reduce the risk of serious injury or
death, we recommend that you
contact your HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
When you drive on a road having
poor traction, such as an icy road,
and apply your brakes continuously,
the ABS will be active continuously
and the ABS warning light ( ) may
illuminate. Pull your car over to a
safe place and turn the engine off.
Restart the engine. If the ABS warn-
ing light is off, then your ABS sys-
tem is normal. Otherwise, you may
have a problem with your ABS sys-
tem. We recommend that you con-
tact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
as soon as possible.
i Information
When you jump start your vehicle
because of a drained battery, the ABS
warning light ( ) may turn on at the
same time. This happens because of the
low battery voltage. It does not mean
your ABS is malfunctioning. Have the
battery recharged before driving the
vehicle.

Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) (if equipped)
OSU2I062037
OSU2I062037
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system helps to stabilize the vehicle
during cornering maneuvers.
ESC checks where you are steering
and where the vehicle is actually
going.
ESC applies braking pressure to any
one of the vehicle’s brakes and inter-
venes in the engine management
system to assist the driver with keep-
ing the vehicle on the intended path.
It is not a substitute for safe driving
practices. Always adjust your speed
and driving to the road conditions.
WARNING
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions or too quickly when
cornering. The ESC system will
not prevent accidents.
Excessive speed in turns, abrupt
maneuvers, and hydroplaning on
wet surfaces can result in severe
accidents.
ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the ESC and the ESC OFF
indicator lights illuminate for approxi-
mately three seconds and goes off,
then the ESC is turned on.
When operating
When the ESC is in opera-
tion, the ESC indicator
light blinks:
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This
is normal and it means your ESC is
active.
When the ESC activates, the
engine may not respond to the
accelerator as it does under rou-
tine conditions.
If the Cruise Control was in use
when the ESC activates, the Cruise
Control automatically disengages.
The Cruise Control can be reen-
gaged when the road conditions
allow. See “Cruise Control
System” later in this chapter (if
equipped).
When moving out of the mud or
driving on a slippery road, the
engine rpm (revolutions per min-
ute) may not increase even if you
press the accelerator pedal deep-
ly. This is to maintain the stability
and traction of the vehicle and
does not indicate a problem.
6-54
While Driving

to accelerate. NEVER turn the ESC
off while the ESC indicator light is
blinking or you may lose control of
the vehicle resulting in an acci-
dent.
NOTICE
Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tires, make sure all four
tires and wheels are the same size.
Never drive the vehicle with differ-
ent sized wheels and tires installed.
ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud, by temporarily
stopping operation of the ESC, to
maintain wheel torque.
To turn ESC off while driving, press
the ESC OFF button while driving on
a flat road surface.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the trans-
mission:
Do not allow wheel(s) of one
axle to spin excessively while
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly while these lights are dis-
played.
When operating the vehicle on a
dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).
i Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect ABS
or standard brake system operation.
6-56
While Driving
Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM) (if equipped)
The Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM) is a function of the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system. It
helps ensure the vehicle stays stable
when accelerating or braking sud-
denly on wet, slippery and rough
roads where traction over the
four tires can suddenly become
uneven.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the Vehicle Stability
Management (VSM):
ALWAYS check the speed and
the distance to the vehicle
ahead. The VSM is not a substi-
tute for safe driving practices.
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions. The VSM system will
not prevent accidents. Excessive
speed in bad weather, slippery
and uneven roads can result in
severe accidents.
VSM operation
VSM ON condition
The VSM operates when:
The Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) is on.
• Vehicle speed is approximately
above 15 km/h (9 mph) on curve
roads.
• Vehicle speed is approximately
above 20 km/h (12 mph) when the
vehicle is braking on rough roads.
When operating
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may activate the
ESC, you may hear sounds from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sen-
sation in the brake pedal. This is nor-
mal and it means your VSM is active.
i Information
The VSM does not operate when:
Driving on a banked road such as
gradient or incline
Driving in reverse.
The ESC OFF indicator light is on.
The EPS (Electric Power Steering)
warning light ( ) is on or blinks.
WARNING
If the ESC indicator light ( ) or
EPS warning light ( ) stays on
or blinks, your vehicle may have a
malfunction with the VSM system.
When the warning light illuminates
we recommend that the vehicle be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
NOTICE
Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tires, make sure all four
tires and wheels are the same size.
Never drive the vehicle with differ-
ent sized tires and wheels installed.

Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
(if equipped)
The Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
helps prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when starting a vehicle
from a stop on a hill. The system
operates the brakes automatically for
approximately 2 seconds and releas-
es the brake after 2 seconds or when
the accelerator pedal is depressed.
WARNING
Always be ready to depress the
accelerator pedal when starting off
on a incline. The HAC activates
only for approximately 2 seconds.
i Information
The HAC does not operate when the
shift lever is in P (Park) or N
(Neutral).
The HAC activates even when the
ESC (Electronic Stability Control)
is off. However, it does not activate,
when the ESC does not operate nor-
mally.
Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
The Emergency Stop Signal system
alerts the driver behind by blinking
the stop light when the vehicle is
braked rapidly and severely.
The system is activated when:
The vehicle suddenly stops (vehi-
cle speed is over 55 km/h and the
vehicle deceleration at greater
than 7 m/s2)
The ABS is activating
When the vehicle speed is under 40
km/h and the ABS deactivates or the
sudden stop situation is over, the
stop light blinking will stop. Instead,
the hazard warning flasher will turn
on automatically.
The hazard warning flasher will turn
off when vehicle speed is over 10
km/h after the vehicle has stopped.
Also, it will turn off when the vehicle is
driven at low speed for some time.
You can turn it off manually by push-
ing the hazard warning flasher switch.
CAUTION
The Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
system will not work if the hazard
warning flasher is already on.
6-58
While Driving
Good braking practices
WARNING
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a com-
plete stop and continue to depress
the brake pedal. Move the shift
lever into the 1st gear (for manual
transmission vehicle) or P (Park,
for Dual Clutch Transmission/
Automatic Transmission vehicle)
position, then apply the parking
brake, and place the ignition switch
in the LOCK/OFF position.
Vehicles with the parking brake
not fully engaged are at risk for
moving inadvertently and causing
injury to yourself or others.
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop
as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the vehicle to pull
to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal, taking care to keep the
vehicle under control at all times. If
the braking action does not return to
normal, stop as soon as it is safe to
do so and we recommend that you
call an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
constant pedal pressure can result in
the brakes overheating, brake wear,
and possibly even brake failure.
If a tire goes flat while you are driving,
apply the brakes gently and keep the
vehicle pointed straight ahead while
you slow down. When you are mov-
ing slowly enough for it to be safe to
do so, pull off the road and stop in a
safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped to
prevent the vehicle from rolling for-
ward.

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud and sand, take the
bellow suggestions:
Drive cautiously and keep a longer
braking distance.
Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
• When your vehicle is stuck in
snow, mud, or sand, use second
gear. Accelerate slowly to avoid
unnecessary wheel spin.
Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or
other non-slip materials under the
wheels to provide additional trac-
tion while the vehicle becomes
stuck in ice, snow, or mud.
WARNING
Downshifting with an Dual Clutch
Transmission/Automatic
Transmission while driving on
slippery surfaces can cause an
accident. The sudden change in
tire speed could cause the tires to
skid. Be careful when downshift-
ing on slippery surfaces.
Use sand, rock salt, or other non-slip
material under the drive wheels to
provide traction when stalled in ice,
snow, or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to
free it from snow, sand, or mud, first
turn the steering wheel right and left
to clear the area around your front
wheels. Then, shift back and forth
between 1st and R (Reverse, for
manual transmission vehicle) or R
(Reverse) and a forward gear (for
Dual Clutch Transmission/Automatic
Transmission vehicle). Try to avoid
spinning the wheels, and do not race
the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait
until the wheels stop spinning before
shifting gears. Release the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal while
the transmission is in gear. Slowly
spinning the wheels in forward and
reverse directions causes a rocking
motion that may free the vehicle.
NOTICE
If the tires spin at high speed the
tires can explode, and you or oth-
ers may be injured. Do not attempt
this procedure if people or objects
are anywhere near the vehicle.
The vehicle can overheat causing
an engine compartment fire or
other damage. Spin the wheels as
little as possible and avoid spin-
ning the wheels at speeds over 56
km/h (35 mph) as indicated on the
speedometer.
NOTICE
If you are still stuck after rocking
the vehicle a few times, have the
vehicle pulled out by a tow vehicle
to avoid engine overheating, pos-
sible damage to the transmission,
and tire damage. See “Towing” in
chapter 7.

While Driving
Smooth cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in
corners, especially when roads are
wet. Ideally, corners should always
be taken under gentle acceleration.
Driving at night
Night driving presents more hazards
than driving in the daylight. Here are
some important tips to remember:
Slow down and keep more dis-
tance between you and other vehi-
cles, as it may be more difficult to
see at night, especially in areas
where there may not be any street
lights.
Adjust your mirrors to reduce the
glare from other driver’s head-
lights.
Keep your headlights clean and
properly aimed. Dirty or improperly
aimed headlights will make it much
more difficult to see at night.
Avoid staring directly at the head-
lights of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your
eyes to readjust to the darkness.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous. Here are a few things to
consider when driving in the rain or
on slick pavement:
Slow down and allow extra follow-
ing distance. A heavy rainfall
makes it harder to see and increas-
es the distance needed to stop
your vehicle.
Replace your windshield wiper
blades when they show signs of
streaking or missing areas on the
windshield.
Be sure your tires have enough
tread. If your tires do not have
enough tread, making a quick stop
on wet pavement can cause a skid
and possibly lead to an accident.
See “Tire replacement” in chapter
8.
Turn on your headlights to make it
easier for others to see you.
Driving too fast through large pud-
dles can affect your brakes. If you
must go through puddles, try to
drive through them slowly.
If you believe your brakes may be
wet, apply them lightly while driv-
ing until normal braking operation
returns.
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the water.
The best advice is SLOW DOWN
when the road is wet. The risk of
hydroplaning increases as the depth
of tire tread decreases, refer to “Tire
replacement” in chapter 8.
6-77
06
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may be
reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them sev-
eral times while the vehicle is moving
slowly.
Highway driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or dam-
age the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged
tires, which may reduce traction or
fail the braking operation.
i Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as speci-
fied on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine
oil
Driving at higher speeds on the high-
way consumes more fuel and is less
efficient than driving at a slower, more
moderate speed. Maintain a moder-
ate speed in order to conserve fuel
when driving on the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine
coolant level and the engine oil before
driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
overheat the engine.
6-78
While Driving
Reducing the risk of a rollover
Your multi-purpose passenger vehi-
cle is defined as a Sports Utility
Vehicle (SUV). SUV’s have higher
ground clearance and a narrower
track to make them capable of per-
forming in a wide variety of off-road
applications. The specific design
characteristics give them a higher
center of gravity than ordinary vehi-
cles making them more likely to roll
over if you make abrupt turns. Utility
vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehi-
cles. Due to this risk, driver and pas-
sengers are strongly recommended
to buckle their seat belts. In a rollover
crash, an unbelted person is signifi-
cantly more likely to die than a person
wearing a seat belt.
There are steps that a driver can
make to reduce the risk of a rollover.
If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or
abrupt maneuvers, do not load your
vehicle with heavy cargo on the roof,
and never modify your vehicle in any
way.
WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly
higher rollover rate than other
types of vehicles. To prevent roll-
overs or loss of control:
Take corners at slower speeds
than you would with a passen-
ger vehicle.
Avoid sharp turns and abrupt
maneuvers.
Do not modify your vehicle in
any way that you would raise the
center of gravity.
Keep tires properly inflated.
Do not carry heavy cargo on the
roof.
WARNING
In a rollover crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likely
to die than a person wearing a seat
belt. Make sure all passengers are
wearing their seat belts.
6-79
06
The severe weather conditions of
winter quickly wear out tires and
cause other problems. To minimize
winter driving problems, you should
take the following suggestions:
Snow or icy conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding,
rapid acceleration, sudden brake
applications, and sharp turns are
potentially very hazardous practices.
During deceleration, use engine brak-
ing to the fullest extent. Sudden brake
applications on snowy or icy roads
may cause skids to occur.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires
or to install tire chains on your tires.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tire chains, tow straps
or chains, a flashlight, emergency
flares, sand, a shovel, jumper cables,
a window scraper, gloves, ground
cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
Snow tires
WARNING
Snow tires should be equivalent in
size and type to the vehicle’s stan-
dard tires. Otherwise, the safety
and handling of your vehicle may
be adversely affected.
If you mount snow tires on your vehi-
cle, make sure to use radial tires of
the same size and load range as the
original tires. Mount snow tires on all
four wheels to balance your vehicle’s
handling in all weather conditions.
The traction provided by snow tires
on dry roads may not be as high as
your vehicle’s original equipment
tires. Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.
i Information
Do not install studded tires without
first checking local and municipal reg-
ulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
WINTER DRIVING
6-80
While Driving
Tire chains
OSU2I069057
OSU2I069057
Since the sidewalls of radial tires are
thinner than other types of tires, they
may be damaged by mounting some
types of tire chains on them.
Therefore, the use of snow tires is
recommended instead of tire chains.
Do not mount tire chains on vehicles
equipped with aluminum wheels; if
possible use a wire type chain. If tire
chains must be used, use genuine
HYUNDAI parts and install the tire
chain after reviewing the instructions
provided with the tire chains. Damage
to your vehicle caused by improper
tire chain use is not covered by your
vehicle manufacturer’s warranty.
WARNING
The use of tire chains may adverse-
ly affect vehicle handling:
Drive less than 30 km/h (20 mph)
or the chain manufacturer’s rec-
ommended speed limit, which-
ever is lower.
Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, sharp turns, and other
road hazards, which may cause
the vehicle to bounce.
• Avoid sharp turns or locked
wheel braking.
i Information
Install tire chains on the front tires.
It should be noted that installing tire
chains on the tires will provide a
greater driving force, but will not
prevent side skids.
Do not install tire chains without
first checking local and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
Chain Installation
When installing tire chains, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and
mount them as tightly possible. Drive
slowly (less than 30 km/h (20 mph))
with chains installed. If you hear the
chains contacting the body or chas-
sis, stop and tighten them. If they still
make contact, slow down until the
noise stops. Remove the tire chains
as soon as you begin driving on
cleared roads.
6-81
06
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away from
traffic. Turn on the vehicle Hazard
Warning Flasher and place a triangu-
lar emergency warning device behind
the vehicle (if available). Always
place the vehicle in P (Park), apply
the parking brake and turn off the
engine before installing snow chains.
If your vehicle has 215/55R18 size
tires, do not use tire chain; they can
damage your vehicle (wheel, suspen-
sion and body). It is advised to use
snow tires.
NOTICE
When using tire chains:
Wrong size chains or improperly
installed chains can damage
your vehicle’s brake lines, sus-
pension, body and wheels.
Use SAE “S” class or wire
chains.
If you hear noise caused by
chains contacting the body,
retighten the chain to prevent
contact with the vehicle body.
• To prevent body damage,
retighten the chains after driv-
ing 0.5~1.0 km (0.3~0.6 miles).
Do not use tire chains on vehi-
cles equipped with aluminum
wheels. If unavoidable, use a
wire type chain.
Use wire chains less than 12mm
(0.47 in) wide to prevent damage
to the vehicle body and chain
connection if your vehicle has
215/60R17 size tires.
Winter precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because it
helps prevent corrosion in the cooling
system, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace
or replenish your coolant in accor-
dance with the maintenance schedule
in chapter 8. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freez-
ing point is sufficient for the tempera-
tures anticipated during the winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the
battery and cables as described in
chapter 8. The level of charge in your
battery can be checked by an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer or a service
station.
Change to “winter weight” oil if
necessary
In some climates it is recommended
that a lower viscosity “winter weight”
oil be used during cold weather. See
chapter 2 for recommendations. If
you aren’t sure what weight oil you
should use, we recommend that you
consult with an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Check spark plugs and ignition
system
Inspect your spark plugs as described
in chapter 8 and replace them if neces-
sary. Also check all ignition wiring and
components to be sure they are not
cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
6-82
While Driving
To keep locks from freezing
To keep the locks from freezing,
squirt an approved de-icer fluid or
glycerine into the key opening. If a
lock is covered with ice, squirt it with
an approved de-icing fluid to remove
the ice. If the lock is frozen internally,
you may be able to thaw it out by
using a heated key. Handle the heat-
ed key with care to avoid injury.
Use approved window washer
anti-freeze in system
To keep the water in the window
washer system from freezing, add an
approved window washer anti-freeze
solution in accordance with instruc-
tions on the container. Window wash-
er anti-freeze is available from an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
most auto parts outlets. Do not use
engine coolant or other types of anti-
freeze as these may damage the
paint finish.
Do not let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged
position. This is most likely to happen
when there is an accumulation of
snow or ice around or near the rear
brakes or if the brakes are wet. If
there is a risk the parking brake may
freeze, apply it only temporarily while
you put the shift lever in P (for Dual
Clutch Transmission/Automatic
Transmission) or in first or reverse
gear (for manual transmission) and
block the rear wheels so the vehicle
cannot roll. Then release the parking
brake.
Do not let ice and snow accumu-
late underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driv-
ing in severe winter conditions where
this may happen, you should periodi-
cally check underneath the car to be
sure the movement of the front
wheels and the steering components
is not obstructed.
6-83
06
Carry emergency equipment
Depending on the severity of the
weather, you should carry appropri-
ate emergency equipment. Some of
the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or
chains, flashlight, emergency flares,
sand, shovel, jumper cables, window
scraper, gloves, ground cloth, cover-
alls, blanket, etc.
Do not place foreign objects or
materials in the engine compart-
ment
Placement of foreign objects or mate-
rials which prevent cooling of the
engine, in the engine compartment,
may cause a failure or combustion.
The manufacturer is not responsible
for the damage caused by such
placement.
Drive your vehicle when water
vapor condenses and accumu-
lates inside the exhaust pipes
When the vehicle is stopped for a
long time in winter while the engine is
running, water vapor may condense
and accumulate inside the exhaust
pipes. Water in the exhaust pipes
may cause noise, etc., but it is drained
driving at medium to high speed.
6-84
While Driving
Two labels on your driver’s door sill
show how much weight your vehicle
was designed to carry: the Tire and
Loading Information Label and the
Certification Label.
Before loading your vehicle, familiar-
ize yourself with the following terms
for determining your vehicle’s weight
ratings, from the vehicle’s specifica-
tions and the Certification Label:
Base Curb Weight
This is the weight of the vehicle
including a full tank of fuel and all
standard equipment. It does not
include passengers, cargo, or option-
al equipment.
Vehicle Curb Weight
This is the weight of your new vehicle
when you picked it up from your deal-
er plus any aftermarket equipment.
Cargo Weight
This illustration includes all weight
added to the Base Curb Weight,
including cargo and optional equip-
ment.
GAW (Gross Axle Weight)
This is the total weight placed on
each axle (front and rear) - including
vehicle curb weight and all payload.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating)
This is the maximum allowable weight
that can be carried by a single axle
(front or rear). These numbers are
shown on the Certification Label. The
total load on each axle must never
exceed its GAWR.
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight)
This is the Base Curb Weight plus
actual Cargo Weight plus passen-
gers.
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating)
This is the maximum allowable weight
of the fully loaded vehicle (including
all options, equipment, passengers
and cargo). The GVWR is shown on
the Certification Label located on the
driver’s door sill.
Overloading
WARNING
The Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) and the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) for your
vehicle are on the Certification
Label attached to the driver’s (or
front passenger’s) door. Exceeding
these ratings can cause an acci-
dent or vehicle damage. You can
calculate the weight of your load
by weighing the items (and people)
before putting them in the vehicle.
Be careful not to overload your
vehicle.

The turn signals do not work when
the hazard flasher is on.
HAZARD WARNING FLASHER IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
WHILE DRIVING
If the engine stalls while driv-
ing
Reduce your speed gradually,
keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place.
Turn on your hazard warning flash-
er.
Try to start the engine again. If
your vehicle will not start, we rec-
ommend that you contact an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer.

If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the vehicle slow
down while driving straight ahead.
Do not apply the brakes immedi-
ately or attempt to pull off the road
as this may cause loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident.
When the vehicle has slowed to
such a speed that it is safe to do
so, brake carefully and pull off the
road. Drive off the road as far as

If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knock-
ing, the engine may be overheating. If
this happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon
as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (Park, for
Dual Clutch Transmission/Auto-
matic Transmission vehicle) or
neutral (for manual transmission
vehicle) and set the parking brake.
If the air conditioning is ON, turn it
OFF.
3. If engine coolant is running out un-
der the vehicle or steam is coming
out from the hood, stop the engine.
Do not open the hood until the
coolant has stopped running or the
steaming has stopped. If there is
no visible loss of engine coolant
and no steam, leave the engine
running and check to be sure the
engine cooling fan is operating. If
the fan is not running, turn the en-
gine off.
WARNING
While the engine is run-
ning, keep hands, cloth-
ing and tools away from
the moving parts such
as the cooling fan and
drive belt to prevent se-
rious injury.
4. Check for coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the vehi-
cle. (If the air conditioning had
been in use, it is normal for cold
water to be draining from it when
you stop.)
5. If engine coolant is leaking out,
stop the engine immediately and
we recommend that you call an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer for as-
sistance.
WARNING
NEVER remove the radi-
ator cap or the drain
plug while the engine
and radiator are hot. Hot
coolant and steam may
blow out under pressure, causing
serious injury.
Turn the engine off and wait until
the engine cools down. Use ex-
treme care when removing the ra-
diator cap. Wrap a thick towel
around it, and turn it counterclock-
wise slowly to the first stop. Step
back while the pressure is released
from the cooling system. When
you are sure all the pressure has
been released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and con-
tinue turning counterclockwise to
remove it.

Emergency Situations
6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor-
mal. Then, if coolant has been lost,
carefully add coolant to the reser-
voir to bring the fluid level in the
reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping
alert for further signs of overheat-
ing. If overheating happens again,
we recommend that you call an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer for as-
sistance.
NOTICE
Serious loss of coolant indi-
cates a leak in the cooling sys-
tem and we recommend the sys-
tem be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
When the engine overheats from
low engine coolant, suddenly
adding engine coolant may
cause cracks in the engine. To
prevent damage, add engine
coolant slowly in small quanti-
ties.

Each tire, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac-
ard or tire inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the ve-
hicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the prop-
er tire inflation pressure for those
tires.)
As an added safety feature, your ve-
hicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pres-
sure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the prop-
er pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency and tire tread life, and may af-
fect the vehicle’s handling and stop-
ping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.

Emergency Situations
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator is combined with the
low tire pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately
one minute and then remain continu-
ously illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indica-
tor is illuminated, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS mal-
functions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to en-
sure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
i Information
If the TPMS indicator does not illumi-
nate for 3 seconds when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position or
engine is running, or if it comes on af-
ter blinking for approximately one
minute, we recommend that you con-
tact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

played on the cluster display, one or
more of your tires is significantly un-
der-inflated. The low tire pressure po-
sition telltale warning message will
indicate which tire is significantly un-
der-inflated by illuminating the corre-
sponding position light.
If either telltale or cluster display
warning message displays immedi-

Inflate the tires to the proper pressure
as indicated on the vehicle’s placard
or tire inflation pressure label located
on the driver’s side center pillar outer
panel.
If you cannot reach a service station
or if the tire cannot hold the newly
added air, replace the low pressure
tire with a spare tire.
After you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, one of the fol-
lowing will happen:
The TPMS malfunction indicator
may blink for approximately 1 min-
ute and then remain continuously
illuminated because the TPMS
sensor is not mounted on the spare
wheel. (changed tire equipped with
a sensor not in the vehicle)
The TPMS malfunction indicator
will remain continuously illuminat-
ed while driving because the TPMS
sensor is not mounted on the spare
wheel. (changed tire equipped with
a sensor in the vehicle)
CAUTION
In winter or cold weather, the low
tire pressure telltale may be illumi-
nated if the tire pressure was ad-
justed to the recommended tire in-
flation pressure in warm weather.
It does not mean your TPMS is
malfunctioning because the de-
creased temperature leads to a
proportional lowering of tire pres-
sure.
When you drive your vehicle from
a warm area to a cold area or from
a cold area to a warm area, or the
outside temperature is greatly
higher or lower, you should check
the tire inflation pressure and ad-
just the tires to the recommended
tire inflation pressure.
WARNING
Low pressure damage
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and increased braking dis-
tances.
Continued driving on low pressure
tires can cause the tires to over-
heat and fail.

NOTICE
• The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle
is moving around electric power
supply cables or radios trans-
mitter such as at police stations,
government and public offices,
broadcasting stations, military
installations, airports, or trans-
mitting towers, etc. This can in-

(TPMS).
Changing a tire with TPMS
If you have a flat tire, the Low Tire
Pressure will come on. We recom-
mend that the flat tire be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
We recommend that you use a
puncture-repairing agent approved
by HYUNDAI.
The sealant on the tire pressure
sensor and wheel shall be elemi-
nated when you replace the tire
with a new one.
Each wheel is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor mounted inside the
tire behind the valve stem. You must
use TPMS specific wheels. It is rec-
ommended that you have your tires
serviced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Even if you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale will blink or remain
on until the low pressure tire is re-
paired and placed on the vehicle.
After you replace the low pressure
tire with the spare tire, the Low Tire
Pressure Telltale may blink or illumi-
nate after a few minutes because the
TPMS sensor mounted on the spare
wheel is not initiated.
Once the low pressure tire is re-in-
flated to the recommended pressure
and installed on the vehicle or the

If the indicator does not turn off after
a few minutes of driving, we recom-
mend that the system be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
If original mounted tire is replaced
with the spare tire, the TPMS sen-
sor on the replaced spare wheel
should be initiated and we recom-
mend that the TPMS sensor on the
original mounted wheel be deacti-
vated by a HYUNDAI dealer. If the
TPMS sensor on the original
mounted wheel located in the
spare tire carrier still activates, the
tire pressure monitoring system
may not operate properly. We rec-
ommend that the system be ser-
viced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
You may not be able to identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Always use
a good quality tire pressure gauge to
measure the tire’s inflation pressure.
Please note that a tire that is hot (from
being driven) will have a higher pres-
sure measurement than a tire that is
cold.
A cold tire means the vehicle is in
parked position for at least 3 hours or
driven less than 1.6 km (1 mile) in
that period.
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
NOTICE
We recommend that you use the
tire sealant approved by HYUNDAI
if your vehicle is equipped with a
Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
The liquid sealant can damage the
tire pressure sensors.
WARNING
TPMS
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors such
as nails or road debris.
If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off
the accelerator, apply the brakes
gradually and with light force,
and slowly move to a safe posi-
tion off the road.
WARNING
Protecting TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or dis-
abling the Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS) components
may interfere with the system’s
ability to warn the driver of low tire

sure measurement than a tire that is
cold.
A cold tire means the vehicle is in
parked position for at least 3 hours or
driven less than 1.6 km (1 mile) in
that period.
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
NOTICE
We recommend that you use the
tire sealant approved by HYUNDAI
if your vehicle is equipped with a
Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
The liquid sealant can damage the
tire pressure sensors.
WARNING
TPMS
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors such
as nails or road debris.
If you feel any vehicle instability,
immediately take your foot off
the accelerator, apply the brakes
gradually and with light force,
and slowly move to a safe posi-
tion off the road.
WARNING
Protecting TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or dis-
abling the Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS) components
may interfere with the system’s
ability to warn the driver of low tire
pressure conditions and/or TPMS
malfunctions. Tampering with,
modifying, or disabling the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) components may void the
warranty for that portion of the ve-
hicle.

Emergency Situations
WARNING
Changing a tire can be dangerous.
Follow the instructions in this sec-
tion when changing a tire to reduce
the risk of serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Be careful as you use the jack han-
dle to stay clear of the flat end. The
flat end has sharp edges that could
cause cuts.
WARNING
Be cautious as the minimum
ground clearance gets lower when
you store the original tire in the
bottom of the vehicle after replac-
ing it with a spare tire.
In particular, drive below 30 km/h
(18 mph) when driving over a
speed bump and on uphill/down-
hill/uneven road.

WARNING
A vehicle can slip or roll off of a
jack causing serious injury or
death to you or those nearby. Take
the following safety precautions:
Do not get under a vehicle that
is supported by a jack.
NEVER attempt to change a tire
in the lane of traffic. ALWAYS
move the vehicle completely off
the road on level, firm ground
away from traffic before trying
to change a tire. If you cannot
find a level, firm place off the
road, call a towing service for
assistance.
Be sure to use the jack provided
with the vehicle.
ALWAYS place the jack on the
designated jacking positions on
the vehicle and NEVER on the
bumpers or any other part of the
vehicle for jacking support.
Do not start or run the engine
while the vehicle is on the jack.
Do not allow anyone to remain
in the vehicle while it is on the
jack.
Keep children away from the
road and the vehicle.

OSU2I079005
13. Use the wheel lug nut wrench to
tighten the lug nuts in the order
shown. Double-check each lug
nut until they are tight. After
changing tires, we recommend
that an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer tighten the lug nuts to their
proper torque as soon as possi-
ble. The wheel lug nut should
be tightened to 11~13 kgf.m
(79~94 lbf.ft).
7-24
Emergency Situations
If you have a tire gauge, check the
tire pressure (see “Tires and Wheels”
in chapter 2 for tire pressure instruc-
tions.). If the pressure is lower or
higher than recommended, drive
slowly to the nearest service station
and adjust it to the recommended
pressure. Always reinstall the valve
cap after checking or adjusting tire
pressure. If the cap is not replaced,
air may leak from the tire. If you lose
a valve cap, buy another and install it
as soon as possible. After changing
tires, secure the flat tire and return
the jack and tools to their proper stor-
age locations.
i Information
Check the tire pressure as soon as pos-
sible after installing a spare tire. Ad-
just it to the recommended pressure.
NOTICE
Your vehicle has metric threads on
the studs and lug nuts. Make cer-
tain during tire changing that the
same nuts that were removed are
reinstalled. If you have to replace
your lug nuts make sure they have
metric threads to avoid damaging
the studs and ensure the wheel is
properly secured to the hub. We
recommend that you consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for as-
sistance.
If any of the equipment such as the
jack, lug nuts, studs, or other equip-
ment is damaged or in poor condition,
do not attempt to change the tire and
call for assistance.
Use of compact spare tires
(if equipped)
Compact spare tires are designed for
emergency use only. Drive carefully
on the compact spare tire and always
follow the safety precautions.
WARNING
To prevent compact spare tire fail-
ure and loss of control possibly
resulting in an accident:
Use the compact spare tire only
in an emergency.
NEVER operate your vehicle
over 80 km/h (50 mph).
Do not exceed the vehicle’s
maximum load rating or the load
carrying capacity shown on the
sidewall of the compact spare
tire.
Do not use the compact spare
tire continuously. Repair or re-
place the original tire as soon as
possible to avoid failure of the
compact spare tire.
When driving with the compact spare
tire mounted to your vehicle:
Check the tire pressure after in-
stalling the compact spare tire. The
compact spare tire should be in-
flated to 420 kPa (60 psi).
Do not take this vehicle through an
automatic car wash while the com-
pact spare tire is installed.
Do not use the compact spare tire
on any other vehicle because this
tire has been designed especially
for your vehicle.
7-25
07
The compact spare tire’s tread life
is shorter than a regular tire. In-
spect your compact spare tire reg-
ularly and replace worn compact
spare tires with the same size and
design, mounted on the same
wheel.
Do not use more than one compact
spare tire at a time.
Do not tow a trailer while the com-
pact spare tire is installed.
i Information
When the original tire and wheel are
repaired and reinstalled on the vehicle,
the lug nut torque must be set correctly
to prevent wheel vibration. The correct
lug nut tightening torque is 11~13
kgf.m (79~94 lbf.ft).
NOTICE
To prevent damaging the compact
spare tire and your vehicle:
Drive slowly enough for the road
conditions to avoid all hazards,
such as a potholes or debris.
Avoid driving over obstacles.
The compact spare tire diameter
is smaller than the diameter of a
conventional tire and reduces
the ground clearance approxi-
mately 25 mm (1 inch).
Do not use tire chains on the
compact spare tire. Because of
the smaller size, a tire chain will
not fit properly.
Do not use the compact spare
tire on any other wheels, nor
should standard tires, snow
tires, wheel covers or trim rings
be used with the compact spare
wheel.

OSU2I071020L
[A] : Dolly
If emergency towing is necessary, we
recommend having it done by an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer or a com-
mercial tow-truck service. Proper lift-
ing and towing procedures are
necessary to prevent damage to the
vehicle. The use of wheel dollies or
flatbed is recommended.
On 2WD vehicles, if the transmission
is operable in N (Neutral), it is only
acceptable to tow the vehicle with the
rear wheels on the ground (without
dollies) and the front wheels off the
ground. If the transmission is not
shifted to N (Neutral), the vehicle
should never be towed with the
wheels on the ground. If any of the
loaded wheels or suspension compo-
nents are damaged or the vehicle is
being towed with the front wheels on
the ground, use a towing dolly under
the front wheels.
When being towed by a commercial
tow truck and wheel dollies are not
used, the front of the vehicle should
always be lifted, not the rear.

CAUTION
Do not tow the vehicle with the
front wheels on the ground as
this may cause damage to the
vehicle and transmission.
Do not tow with sling-type equip-
ment. Use a wheel lift or flatbed
equipment.
Do not tow the vehicle with four
wheels in contact with the
ground if it is the vehicle
equipped with IVT, AT or DCT.
Otherwise, the transmission will
be seriously damaged. Also,
make sure not to tow the vehicle
connecting it with other vehicles
including camper vans.

If towing is necessary, we recom-
mend you have it done by an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer or a commer-
cial tow truck service.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tem-
porarily towed using a cable or chain
secured to the emergency towing
hook at the front (or rear) of the vehi-
cle.
Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle with a cable or chain. A driver
must be in the vehicle to steer it and
operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done
only on hard-surfaced roads for a
short distance and at low speeds.
Also, the wheels, axles, power train,
steering and brakes must all be in
good condition.
CAUTION
The driver must be in the vehicle
for steering and braking opera-
tions when the vehicle is being
towed. Passengers other than the
driver must not be in the vehicle.
Always follow these emergency tow-
ing precautions:
Place the ignition switch in the
ACC position so the steering wheel
is not locked.
Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Depress the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will
have reduced braking perfor-
mance.
More steering effort will be required
because the power steering sys-
tem will be disabled.
Use a vehicle heavier than your
own to tow your vehicle.
The drivers of both vehicles should
communicate with each other fre-
quently.
Before emergency towing, check
that the hook is not broken or dam-
aged.
Fasten the towing cable or chain
securely to the hook.
Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady
and even force.
7-31
07
OSU2I071023L
OSU2I071023L
Use a towing cable or chain less
than 5 m (16 feet) long. Attach a
white or red cloth (about 30 cm (12
inches) wide) in the middle of the
cable or chain for easy visibility.
Drive carefully so the towing cable
or chain remains tight during tow-
ing.
Before towing, check the automat-
ic transmission for fluid leaks un-
der your vehicle. If the automatic
transmission fluid is leaking, flat-
bed equipment or a towing dolly
must be used.
NOTICE
Accelerate or decelerate the vehi-
cle in a slow and gradual manner
while maintaining tension on the
tow rope or chain to start or drive
the vehicle, otherwise tow hooks
and the vehicle may be damaged.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to your vehicle
and vehicle components when
towing:
Always pull straight ahead when
using the towing hooks. Do not
pull from the side or at a vertical
angle.
Do not use the towing hooks to
pull a vehicle out of mud, sand
or other conditions from which
the vehicle cannot be driven out
under its own power.
Limit the vehicle speed to 15
km/h (10 mph) and drive less
than 1.5 km (1 mile) when towing
to avoid serious damage to the
transmission.

or personal injury. This chapter pro-
vides instructions only for the mainte-
nance items that are easy to perform.
Several procedures can be done only
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
with special tools.
Your vehicle should not be modified
in any way. Such modifications may
adversely affect the performance,
safety or durability of your vehicle
and may, in addition, violate condi-
tions of the limited warranties cover-
ing the vehicle.
i Information
Improper owner maintenance during
the warranty period may affect war-
ranty coverage. For details, read the
separate Service Passport provided
with the vehicle. If you’re unsure about
any servicing or maintenance proce-
dure, we recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorized HYUND-
AI dealer.
WARNING
Maintenance work
• Performing maintenance work
on a vehicle can be dangerous.
You can be seriously injured
while performing some mainte-
nance procedures. If you lack
sufficient knowledge and expe-
rience or the proper tools and
equipment to do the work, we
recommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Working under the hood with
the engine running is danger-
ous. It becomes even more dan-
gerous when you wear jewelry
or loose clothing. These can be-
come entangled in moving parts
and result in injury.

Maintenance
WARNING
Performing maintenance work on
a vehicle can be dangerous. If you
lack sufficient knowledge and ex-
perience or the proper tools and
equipment to do the work, we rec-
ommend that the system be ser-
viced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer. ALWAYS follow these pre-
cautions for performing mainte-
nance work:
Park your vehicle on level
ground, move the shift button
into the P (Park) position, apply
the parking brake, place the ig-
nition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position.
• Block the tires (front and back)
to prevent the vehicle from mov-
ing.
Remove loose clothing or jewel-
ry that can become entangled in
moving parts.
If you must run the engine
during maintenance, do so in an
outdoor area or in an area with
plenty of ventilation.
Keep flames, sparks, or smok-
ing materials away from the bat-
tery and fuel-related parts.
WARNING
Touching metal parts
Do not touch metal parts (includ-
ing strut bars) while the engine is
operating or hot. Doing so could
result in serious personal injury.
Turn the engine off and wait until
the metal parts cool down to per-
form maintenance work on the ve-
hicle.
The following lists are vehicle checks
and inspections that should be per-
formed at the frequencies indicated
to help ensure safe, dependable op-
eration of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer
as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks
are generally not covered by warran-
ties and you may be charged for la-
bor, parts and lubricants used.
WARNING
Diesel Engine
Never manipulate or modify the in-
jection system while running the
diesel engine or within 30 seconds
after turning OFF the diesel en-
gine. The high-pressure pump,
high-pressure pipes, rail, and in-
jectors are still subject to high
pressure immediately after stop-
ping the diesel engine.
When the fuel leakage vents out, it
may cause serious body injury.
Any people, who are implanted
with the artificial cardiac pacemak-
er, should remain away from the
ECU or the wiring harness by at
least 30 cm, while running the die-
sel engine. The high currents of
the electronic engine control sys-
tem produce a considerable

Check if the front of the radiator
and condenser are clean and not
blocked with leaves, dirt or insects
etc.
If any of the above parts are ex-
tremely dirty or you are not sure of
their condition, we recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your en-
gine coolant level if the engine is
hot. Scalding hot coolant and
steam may blow out under pres-
sure. This could cause burns or
other serious injuries.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of
the exhaust or any smell of ex-
haust fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice any increased steer-
ing effort or looseness in the steer-
ing wheel, or change in its straight-
ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly
turns slightly or “pulls” to one side
when traveling on smooth, level
road.
When stopping, listen and check
for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the
operation of your transmission oc-
curs, check the transmission fluid
level.
Check Dual Clutch Transmission/
Automatic Transmission P (Park)
function.
Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
8-10
Maintenance
At least monthly:
Check the coolant level in the en-
gine coolant reservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the stoplights, turn
signals and hazard warning flash-
ers.
Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare for tires
that are worn, show uneven wear,
or are damaged.
Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year
(for example, every Spring and
Fall):
Check the radiator, heater and air
conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.
Check the windshield washer
spray and wiper operation. Clean
wiper blades with clean cloth
dampened with washer fluid.
Check the headlight alignment.
Check the muffler, exhaust pipes,
shields and clamps.
Check the lap/shoulder belts for
wear and function.
At least once a year:
Clean the body and door drain
holes.
• Lubricate the door hinges and
checks, and hood hinges.
Lubricate the door and hood locks
and latches.
Lubricate the door rubber weather-
strips.
Check the air conditioning system.
• Inspect and lubricate automatic
transmission linkage and controls.
Clean the battery and terminals.
Check the brake/clutch fluid level.

*1. Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km (350 miles) or before
starting a long trip.
*2. Driving in ambient temperature over 40 °C (104°F) or driving at constant
highway speeds must conform the severe driving conditions.
*3. The engine oil level should be checked regularly and maintained properly.
Operating with an insufficient amount of oil can damage the engine, and
such damage is not covered by warranty.
*4. Inspect for excessive valve noise and/or engine vibration and adjust if
necessary. We recommend that an authorized HYUNDAI dealer should
perform the operation.
*5. When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your
vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An
improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine
damage.
*6. Manual/Auto/iMT/iVT transaxle fluid should be changed anytime the
vehicle has been submerged in water.
*7. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <”EN228 or equivalent”>. if
the same is not available, one bottle of additive is recommended.
Additives are available from your authorised HYUNDAI dealer along with
information on how to use them. Do not mix other additives.
*8. This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. If there are some
important safety matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power,
hard starting problem etc., replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of
maintenance schedule. We recommend that you consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for details.
*9. Inspect drive belt tensioner, idler & alternator pulley, starter & all chassis
electrical items. Correct or replace if necessary.
*10. For your convenience, it can be replaced prior to it’s interval when you do
maintenance of other items.
*11. Adjust alternator and power steering (and water pump drive belt) and air
conditioner drive belt (if equipped). Inspect if necessary, correct or
replace.

Maintenance
Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in
the maintenance schedule. If the car
is being driven in severe conditions,
more frequent oil and filter changes
are required.
Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil
saturation and replace if necessary.
Drive belts should be checked peri-
odically for proper tension and adjust-
ed as necessary.
NOTICE
When you are inspecting the belt,
place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position.
Fuel filter
A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven,
damage the emission system and
cause multiple issues such as hard
starting. If an excessive amount of
foreign matter accumulates in the fuel
tank, the filter may require replace-
ment more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the en-
gine for several minutes, and check
for leaks at the connections.
We recommend that the fuel filter be
replaced by an authoized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and dam-
age. We recommend that the fuel
lines, fuel hoses and connections be
replaced by an authoized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING
Diesel Engine
Never manipulate or modify the in-
jection system while running the
diesel engine or within 30 seconds
after turning OFF the diesel en-
gine. The high-pressure pump,
high-pressure pipes, rail, and in-
jectors are still subject to high
pressure immediately after stop-
ping the diesel engine.
When the fuel leakage vents out, it
may cause serious body injury.
Any people, who are implanted
with the artificial cardiac pacemak-
er, should remain away from the
ECU or the wiring harness by at
least 30 cm, while running the die-
sel engine. The high currents of
the electronic engine control sys-
tem produce a considerable
amount of magnetic fields.

vals specified in the maintenance
schedule. Make sure that a new va-
por hose or fuel filler cap is correctly
replaced.
Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and
excessive swelling indicate deteriora-
tion. Particular attention should be
paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such as
the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure
that the hoses do not come in contact
with any heat source, sharp edges or
moving component which might
cause heat damage or mechanical
wear. Inspect all hose connections,
such as clamps and couplings, to
make sure they are secure, and that
no leaks are present. Hoses should
be replaced immediately if there is
any evidence of deterioration or dam-
age.
Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner
filter be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Spark plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
When assembling parts, be sure to
wipe out foreign substances inside
and outside of the boot bottom of the
ignition coil and the insulator of the
spark plug with a soft cloth to prevent
contamination of the spark plug insu-
lator.
WARNING
Do not disconnect and inspect
spark plugs when the engine is
hot. You may burn yourself.
Valve clearance (if equipped)
Inspect for excessive valve noise
and/or engine vibration and adjust if
necessary. We recommend that the
system be serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Cooling system
Check cooling system components,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
8-26

(if equipped)
Inspect the automatic transmission
fluid according to the maintenance
schedule.
NOTICE
The use of non-specified fluid
(even marked as compatible with
genuine) could result in shift qual-
ity deterioration and vibrations,
eventually, the transmission fail-
ure.
Use only specified automatic
transmission fluid. (Refer to “Rec-
ommended lubricants and capaci-
ties” in chapter 2.)
Brake hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately.
Brake/clutch fluid (if equipped)
Check brake/clutch fluid level in the
brake fluid reservoir. The level should
be between “MIN” (Minimum) and
“MAX” (Maximum) marks on the side
of the reservoir. Use only hydraulic
brake/clutch fluid conforming to DOT
4 specification.
Parking brake
Inspect the parking brake system in-
cluding the parking brake lever and
cables.
Rear brake drums and linings
(if equipped)
Check the rear brake drums and lin-
ings for scoring, burning, leaking flu-
id, broken parts, and excessive wear.
Brake pads, calipers and discs
Check the pads for excessive wear,
discs for run out and wear, and cali-
pers for fluid leakage.

severe usage conditions.
The purpose of the maintenance
schedule for engine oil replace-
ment is to prevent oil deterioration
and it is irrelevant to oil consump-
tion. Check and refill engine oil
regularly.
i Information
When the oil pressure is low due to in-
sufficient engine oil, the Engine Oil
Pressure ( ) warning light will illu-
minate. In addition, the enhanced en-
gine protection system, which limits
the engine’s power is activated and the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp ( )
will illuminate when the vehicle is driv-
en in this state continuously. When oil
pressure is restored, the Engine Oil
Pressure warning light will turn off
and the engine power will no longer be
limited.
CAUTION
The engine oil is very hot immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been
driven and can cause burns during
replacement. Replace the engine
oil after the engine oil has cooled
down.
WARNING
Used engine oil may cause skin ir-
ritation or cancer if left in contact
with the skin for prolonged peri-
ods of time. Used engine oil con-
tains chemicals that have caused
cancer in laboratory animals. Al-
ways protect your skin by washing
your hands thoroughly with soap
and warm water as soon as possi-
ble after handling used oil.

Maintenance
The high-pressure cooling system
has a reservoir filled with year-round
antifreeze coolant. The reservoir is
filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at
the beginning of the winter season,
and before traveling to a colder cli-
mate.
NOTICE
Do not drive with no engine cool-
ant. It may cause water pump
failure and engine seizure, etc.
When the engine overheats from
low engine coolant, suddenly
adding engine coolant may
cause cracks in the engine. To
prevent damage, add engine
coolant slowly in small quanti-
ties.
Checking the coolant level
OSU2I092004
OSU2I092004
Check the condition and connections
of all cooling system hoses and heat-
er hoses. Replace any swollen or de-
teriorated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled be-
tween F (Full) and L (Low) marked
on the side of the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) water.
Bring the level to F (Full), but do not
overfill. If frequent additions are re-
quired, we recommend that the sys-
tem be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

WARNING
Removing radiator cap
Never attempt to remove the ra-
diator cap while the engine is
operating or hot. Doing so might
lead to cooling system and en-
gine damage and could result in
serious personal injury from es-
caping hot coolant or steam.
Turn the engine off and wait un-
til it cools down. Use extreme
care when removing the radiator
cap. Wrap a thick towel around
it, and turn it counterclockwise
slowly to the first stop. Step
back while the pressure is re-
leased from the cooling system.
When you are sure all the pres-
sure has been released, press
down on the cap, using a thick
towel, and continue turning
counterclockwise to remove it.
Even if the engine is not operat-
ing, do not remove the radiator
cap or the drain plug while the
engine and radiator are hot. Hot
coolant and steam may still blow
out under pressure, causing se-
rious injury.
WARNING
The electric motor (cool-
ing fan) is controlled by
engine coolant tempera-
ture, refrigerant pres-
sure and vehicle speed.
It may sometimes operate even
when the engine is not running.
Use extreme caution when work-
ing near the blades of the cooling
fan so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blades. As the engine
coolant temperature decreases,
the electric motor will automatical-
ly shut off. This is a normal condi-
tion.
The electric motor (cooling fan)
may operate until you disconnect
the negative battery cable.
8-34
Maintenance
Recommended engine coolant
When adding coolant, use only de-
ionized water or soft water for your
vehicle and never mix hard water
in the coolant filled at the factory.
An improper coolant mixture can
result in serious malfunction or en-
gine damage.
The engine in your vehicle has alu-
minum engine parts and must be
protected by an phosphate based
ethylene-glycol coolant to prevent
corrosion and freezing.
DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol
coolant or mix them with the speci-
fied coolant.
Do not use a solution that contains
more than 60% antifreeze or less
than 35% antifreeze, which would
reduce the effectiveness of the
solution.
For mixture percentage, refer to the
following table.
Ambient
Temperature
Mixture Percentage
(volume)
Antifreeze Water
-15°C (5°F) 35 65
-25°C (-13°F) 40 60
-35°C (-31°F) 50 50
-45°C (-49°F) 60 40
i Information
If in doubt about the mix ratio, a 50%
water and 50% antifreeze mix is the
easiest to mix together as it will be the
same quantity of each. It is suitable to
use for most temperature ranges of
-35°C (-31°F) and higher.
WARNING
Radiator cap
Do not remove the radia-
tor cap when the engine
and radiator are hot.
Scalding hot coolant and steam
may blow out under pressure
causing serious injury.
Changing the coolant
We recommend that the coolant be
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
NOTICE
Put a thick cloth or fabric around
the radiator cap before refilling the
coolant in order to prevent the
coolant from overflowing into en-
gine parts such as the alternator.
WARNING
Do not use radiator coolant or
antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
Engine coolant can severely ob-
scure visibility when sprayed on
the windshield and may cause
loss of vehicle control or dam-
age to paint and body trim.

Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
OSU2I092005
OSU2I092005
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX (Maximum) and MIN
(Minimum) marks on the side of the
reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination. If the level is low,
add fluid to the MAX (Maximum) lev-
el. The level will fall with accumulated
mileage. This is a normal condition
associated with the wear of the brake
linings and/or clutch disc (if equipped).
If the fluid level is excessively low, we
recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch
fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubri-
cants or capacities” in chapter 2.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING
Loss of brake fluid
In the event the brake system re-
quires frequent additions of fluid,
we recommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized HYUN-
DAI dealer.
i Information
Before removing the brake/clutch fil-
ter cap, read the warning on the cap.
WARNING
Clean filler cap before removing.
Use only DOT 4 brake/clutch fluid
from a sealed container.

contact with your eyes, immediate-
ly flush them with a large quantity
of fresh tap water. Have your eyes
examined by a doctor as soon as
possible.
NOTICE
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle’s body
paint, as it will result in paint
damage.
NEVER use brake/clutch fluid
which has been exposed to
open air for an extended time, as
its quality cannot be guaran-
teed. It should be properly dis-
posed.
Don’t put in the wrong type of
fluid. A few drops of miner-
al-based oil such as engine oil in
your brake/clutch system can
damage brake/clutch system
parts.

i Information
A new automatic transmission fluid
should be red. The red dye is added so
the assembly plant can identify it as
automatic transmission fluid and dis-
tinguish it from engine oil or anti-
freeze. The red dye, which is not an
indicator of fluid quality, is not perma-
nent. As the vehicle is driven, the auto-
matic transmission fluid will begin to
look darker. The color may eventually
appear light brown. Therefore, we rec-
ommend that the system be replaced
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
according to the Scheduled Mainte-
nance at the beginning of this chapter.
Use only the specified automatic
transmission fluid.

Tire care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum fuel economy, you must al-
ways maintain recommended tire in-
flation pressures and stay within the
load limits and weight distribution rec-
ommended for your vehicle.
Recommended cold tire infla-
tion pressures
All tire pressures (including the spare)
should be checked when the tires are
cold. “Cold Tires” means the vehicle
has not been driven for at least three
hours or driven less than 1.6 km (one
mile).
Recommended pressures must be
maintained for the best ride, top vehi-
cle handling, and minimum tire wear.
For recommended inflation pressure,
refer to “Tire and wheels” in chapter
2.
OSU2I019021
OSU2I019021
All specifications (sizes and pres-
sures) can be found on a label at-
tached to the vehicle.
WARNING
Tire underinflation
Severe underinflation (70 kPa (10
psi) or more) can lead to severe
heat build-up, causing blowouts,
tread separation and other tire fail-
ures that can result in the loss of
vehicle control leading to severe
injury or death. This risk is much
higher on hot days and when driv-
ing for long periods at high speeds.
TIRES AND WHEELS
8-52
Maintenance
NOTICE
Underinflation also results in ex-
cessive wear, poor handling and
reduced fuel economy. Wheel
deformation also is possible.
Keep your tire pressures at the
proper levels. If a tire frequently
needs refilling, we recommend
that the system be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Overinflation produces a harsh
ride, excessive wear at the cen-
ter of the tire tread, and a greater
possibility of damage from road
hazards.
NOTICE
Warm tires normally exceed rec-
ommended cold tire pressures
by 28 to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do
not release air from warm tires
to adjust the pressure or the
tires will be underinflated.
Be sure to reinstall the tire infla-
tion valve caps. Without the
valve cap, dirt or moisture could
get into the valve core and cause
air leakage. If a valve cap is
missing, install a new one as
soon as possible.
WARNING
Tire Inflation
Overinflation or underinflation can
reduce tire life, adversely affect ve-
hicle handling, and lead to sudden
tire failure. This could result in
loss of vehicle control and poten-
tial injury.
NOTICE
Tire pressure
Always observe the following:
• Check tire pressure when the
tires are cold. (After vehicle has
been parked for at least three
hours or hasn’t been driven
more than 1.6 km (one mile)
since startup.)
Check the pressure of your
spare tire each time you check
the pressure of other tires.
Never overload your vehicle. Be
careful not to overload a vehicle
luggage rack if your vehicle is
equipped with one.
Worn, old tires can cause acci-
dents. If your tread is badly
worn, or if your tires have been
damaged, replace them.
8-53
08
Checking tire inflation pres-
sure
Check your tires once a month or
more.
Also, check the tire pressure of the
spare tire.
How to check
Use a good quality gage to check tire
pressure. You can not tell if your tires
are properly inflated simply by look-
ing at them. Radial tires may look
properly inflated even when they’re
underinflated.
Check the tire’s inflation pressure
when the tires are cold. - “Cold”
means your vehicle has been sitting
for at least three hours or driven no
more than 1.6 km (1 mile).
Remove the valve cap from the tire
valve stem. Press the tire gage firmly
onto the valve to get a pressure mea-
surement. If the cold tire inflation
pressure matches the recommended
pressure on the tire and loading infor-
mation label, no further adjustment is
necessary. If the pressure is low, add
air until you reach the recommended
amount.
If you overfill the tire, release air by
pushing on the metal stem in the cen-
ter of the tire valve. Recheck the tire
pressure with the tire gage. Be sure
to put the valve caps back on the
valve stems. They help prevent leaks
by keeping out dirt and moisture.
WARNING
Inspect your tires frequently for
proper inflation as well as wear
and damage. Always use a tire
pressure gauge.
Tires with too much or too little
pressure wear unevenly causing
poor handling, loss of vehicle
control, and sudden tire failure
leading to accidents, injuries,
and even death. The recom-
mended cold tire pressure for
your vehicle can be found in this
manual and on the tire label lo-
cated on the driver’s side center
pillar.
Worn tires can cause accidents.
Replace tires that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are dam-
aged.
Remember to check the pres-
sure of your spare tire. HYUND-
AI recommends that you check
the spare every time you check
the pressure of the other tires
on your vehicle.
8-54
Maintenance
Tire rotation
To equalize tread wear, HYUNDAI
recommends that the tires be rotated
according to the maintenance sched-
ule or sooner if irregular wear devel-
ops.
During rotation, check the tires for
correct balance.
When rotating tires, check for uneven
wear and damage. Abnormal wear is
usually caused by incorrect tire pres-
sure, improper wheel alignment, out-
of-balance wheels, severe braking or
severe cornering. Look for bumps or
bulges in the tread or side of tire. Re-
place the tire if you find either of these
conditions. Replace the tire if fabric or
cord is visible. After rotation, be sure
to bring the front and rear tire pres-
sures to specification and check lug
nut tightness.
Refer to “Tire and wheels” in chapter
2.

jury, or property damage.
Wheel alignment and tire bal-
ance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to
have your wheels aligned again.
However, if you notice unusual tire
wear or your vehicle pulling one way
or the other, the alignment may need
to be reset.
If you notice your vehicle vibrating
when driving on a smooth road, your
wheels may need to be rebalanced.
NOTICE
Improper wheel weights can dam-
age your vehicle’s aluminum
wheels. Use only approved wheel
weights.

Tread wear indicator
Tread wear indicator
If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear
indicator will appear as a solid band
across the tread. This shows there is
less than 1.6 mm (1/16 inch) of tread
left on the tire. Replace the tire when
this happens.
Do not wait for the band to appear
across the entire tread before replac-
ing the tire.
NOTICE
When replacing the tires, recheck
and tighten the wheel nuts after
driving about 1,000 km (620 miles).
If the steering wheel shakes or the
vehicle vibrates while driving, the
tire is out of balance. Align the tire
balance. If the problem is not
solved, we recommend that you
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Maintenance
WARNING
Replacing tires
To reduce the chance or serious or
fatal injuries from an accident
caused by tire failure or loss of ve-
hicle control:
Replace tires that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are dam-
aged. Worn tires can cause loss
of braking effectiveness, steer-
ing control, and traction.
Do not drive your vehicle with
too little or too much pressure in
your tires. This can lead to un-
even wear and tire failure.
When replacing tires, never mix
radial and bias-ply tires on the
same car. You must replace all
tires (including the spare) if
moving from radial to bias-ply
tires.
It is best to replace all four tires
at the same time. If that is not
possible, or necessary, then re-
place the two front or two rear
tires as a pair. Replacing just
one tire can seriously affect
your vehicle’s handling.
Using tires and wheel other than
the recommended sizes could
cause unusual handling charac-
teristics and poor vehicle con-
trol, resulting in a serious acci-
dent.
Wheels that do not meet HYUN-
DAI’s specifications may fit
poorly and result in damage to
the vehicle or unusual handling
and poor vehicle control.
The ABS works by comparing
the speed of the wheels. Tire
size can affect wheel speed.
When replacing tires, all 4 tires
must use the same size original-
ly supplied with the vehicle. Us-
ing tires of a different size can
cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake
System) and ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) to work irregu-
larly. (if equipped)
Compact spare tire replacement
(if equipped)
A compact spare tire has a shorter
tread life than a regular size tire. Re-
place it when you can see the tread
wear indicator bars on the tire. The
replaced compact spare tire should
be the same size and design tire as
the one provided with your new vehi-
cle and should be mounted on the
same compact spare tire wheel. The
compact spare tire is not designed to
be mounted on a regular size wheel,
and the compact spare tire wheel is
not designed to mount a regular size
tire.
8-57

Wheel replacement
When replacing the metal wheels for
any reason, make sure the new
wheels are equivalent to the original
factory units in diameter, rim width
and offset.
WARNING
A wheel that is not the correct size
may adversely affect wheel and
bearing life, braking and stopping
abilities, handling characteristics,
ground clearance, body-to-tire
clearance, snow chain clearance,
speedometer and odometer cali-
bration, headlight aim and bumper
height.
Tire traction
Tire traction can be reduced if you
drive on worn tires, tires that are im-
properly inflated or on slippery road
surfaces. Tires should be replaced
when tread wear indicators appear.
Slow down whenever there is rain,
snow or ice on the road, to reduce the
possibility of losing control of the ve-
hicle.
Tire maintenance
In addition to proper inflation, correct
wheel alignment helps decrease tire
wear. If you find a tire worn unevenly,
have your dealer check the wheel
alignment.
When you have new tires installed,
make sure they are balanced. This
will increase vehicle ride comfort and
tire life. Additionally, a tire should al-
ways be rebalanced if it is removed
from the wheel.
Tire sidewall labeling
B0464EU01
B0464EU01
This information identifies and de-
scribes the fundamental characteris-
tics of the tire and also provides the
tire identification number (TIN) for
safety standard certification. The TIN
can be used to identify the tire in case
of a recall.
8-58
Maintenance
1. Manufacturer or brand name
Manufacturer or Brand name is
shown.
2. Tire size designation
A tire’s sidewall is marked with a tire
size designation. You will need this
information when selecting replace-
ment tires for your car. The following
explains what the letters and num-
bers in the tire size designation mean.
Example tire size designation:
(These numbers are provided as an
example only; your tire size designa-
tor could vary depending on your ve-
hicle.)
215/60R17 96H
215 - Tire width in millimeters.
60 - Aspect ratio. The tire’s section
height as a percentage of its
width.
R - Tire construction code (Radial).
17 - Rim diameter in inches.
96 - Load Index, a numerical code as-
sociated with the maximum load
the tire can carry.
H - Speed Rating Symbol. See the
speed rating chart in this chapter
for additional information.
Wheel size designation
Wheels are also marked with import-
ant information that you need if you
ever have to replace one. The follow-
ing explains what the letters and
numbers in the wheel size designa-
tion mean.
Example wheel size designation:
6.5J X 17
6.0 - Rim width in inches.
J - Rim contour designation.
17 - Rim diameter in inches
Tire speed ratings
The chart below lists many of the dif-
ferent speed ratings currently being
used for passenger car tires. The
speed rating is part of the tire size
designation on the sidewall of the tire.
This symbol corresponds to that tire’s
designed maximum safe operating
speed.
Speed Rating

3. Checking tire life (TIN : Tire
Identification Number)
Any tires that are over 6 years old,
based on the manufacturing date, (in-
cluding the spare tire) should be re-
placed by new ones. You can find the
manufacturing date on the tire side-
wall (possibly on the inside of the
wheel), displaying the DOT Code.
The DOT Code is a series of num-
bers on a tire consisting of numbers
and English letters. The manufactur-
ing date is designated by the last four
digits (characters) of the DOT code.
DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO
The front part of the DOT means a
plant code number, tire size and tread
pattern and the last four numbers in-
dicate week and year manufactured.
For example:
DOT XXXX XXXX 2223 represents
that the tire was produced in the 22th
week of 2023.
WARNING
Tire age
Tires degrade over time, even
when they are not being used.
Regardless of the remaining tread,
it is recommended that tires gener-
ally be replaced after six (6) years
of normal service. Heat caused by
hot climates or frequent high load-
ing conditions can accelerate the
aging process. Failure to follow
this warning could cause sudden
tire failure, which could lead to a
loss of control and an accident in-
volving serious injury or death.
4. Tire ply composition and ma-
terial
The number of layers or plies of rub-
ber-coated fabric in the tire. Tire man-
ufacturers also must indicate the ma-
terials in the tire, which include steel,
nylon, polyester, and others. The
letter “R” means radial ply construc-
tion; the letter “D” means diagonal or
bias ply construction; and the letter
“B” means belted-bias ply construc-
tion.
5. Maximum permissible infla-
tion pressure
This number is the greatest amount
of air pressure that should be put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation pressure. Refer
to the Tire and Loading Information
label for recommended inflation pres-
sure.
6. Maximum load rating
This number indicates the maximum
load in kilograms and pounds that
can be carried by the tire. When re-
placing the tires on the vehicle, al-
ways use a tire that has the same
load rating as the factory installed
tire.
8-60
Maintenance
7. Uniform tire quality grading
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall be-
tween tread shoulder and maximum
chapter width.
For example:
TREAD wear 200
TRACTION AA
TEMPERATURE A
Tread wear
The tread wear grade is a compara-
tive rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified government
test course. For example, a tire grad-
ed 150 would wear one-and-a-half
times (1½) as well on the government
course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires de-
pends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
These grades are molded on the
side-walls of passenger vehicle tires.
The tires available as standard or op-
tional equipment on your vehicle may
vary with respect to grade.
Traction - AA, A, B & C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those
grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement measured un-
der controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may
have poor traction performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this
tire is based on straight-ahead
braking traction tests, and does
not include acceleration, corner-
ing, hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.
Temperature -A, B & C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can
cause the material of the tire to de-
generate and reduce tire life, and ex-
cessive temperature can lead to sud-
den tire failure. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of perfor-
mance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
8-61
08
WARNING
Tire temperature
The temperature grade for this tire
is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not overload-
ed. Excessive speed, underinfla-
tion, or excessive loading, either
separately or in combination, can
cause heat build-up and sudden
tire failure. This can cause loss of
vehicle control and serious injury
or death.
Low aspect ratio tire
(if equipped)
Low aspect ratio tires, whose aspect
ratio is lower than 50, are provided for
sporty looks.
Because the low aspect ratio tires are
optimized for handling and braking, it
may be more uncomfortable to ride in
and there is more noise compare with
normal tires.
NOTICE
Because the sidewall of the low as-
pect ratio tire is shorter than the
normal, the wheel and tire of the
low aspect ratio tire is easier to be
damaged. So, follow the instruc-
tions below.
- When driving on a rough road or
off road, drive cautiously be-
cause tires and wheels may be
damaged. And after driving, in-
spect tires and wheels.
- When passing over a pothole,
speed bump, manhole, or curb
stone, drive slowly so that the
tires and wheels are not dam-
aged.
- If the tire is impacted, we recom-
mend that you inspect the tire
condition or contact an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer.
- To prevent damage to the tire,
inspect the tire condition and
pressure every 3,000km.
NOTICE
It is not easy to recognize the
tire damage with your own eyes.
But if there is the slightest hint
of tire damage, even though you
cannot see the tire damage with
your own eyes, have the tire
checked or replaced because
the tire damage may cause air
leakage from the tire.
If the tire is damaged by driving
on a rough road, off road, pot-
hole, manhole, or curb stone, it
will not be covered by the war-
ranty.
You can find out the tire infor-
mation on the tire sidewall.

A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bol-
ster, the other in the engine compart-
ment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse pan-
el.
Before replacing a blown fuse, dis-
connect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with one
of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this in-
dicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme-
diately consult an authorized HYUN-
DAI dealer.
i Information
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type and multi fuse for higher
amperage ratings.
WARNING
Never replace a fuse with anything
but another fuse of the same rat-
ing.
A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly a
fire.
Never install a wire or aluminum
foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It
may cause extensive wiring
damage and a possible fire.
NOTICE
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short cir-
cuit and damage the system.

Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer to replace most vehicle light
bulbs. It is difficult to replace vehicle
light bulbs because other parts of the
vehicle must be removed before you
can get to the bulb. This is especially
true for removing the headlight as-
sembly to get to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlight as-
sembly can result in damage to the
vehicle.
i Information
The headlight and tail light lenses
could appear frosty if the vehicle is
washed after driving or the vehicle is
driven at night in wet weather. This
condition is caused by temperature dif-
ference between the lamp inside and
outside and, it does not indicate a
problem with your vehicle. When
moisture condenses in the lamp, it will
be removed after driving with the
headlight on. The removable level may
differ depending on lamp size, lamp
position and environmental condition.
However, if moisture is not removed,
we recommend that your vehicle is in-
spected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING
Prior to replacing a light, depress
the foot brake, move the shift lever
into the P (Park, for Dual Clutch
Transmission/Automatic Trans-
mission vehicle) or neutral (for
manual transmission vehicle), ap-
ply the parking brake, place the ig-
nition switch in the LOCK/OFF po-
sition, and take the key with you
when leaving the vehicle to avoid
sudden movement of the vehicle
and to prevent possible electric
shock.
Be aware the bulbs may be hot and
may burn your fingers.
NOTICE
Be sure to replace the burned-out
bulb with one of the same wattage
rating. Otherwise, it may cause
damage to the fuse or electric wir-
ing system.
NOTICE
To prevent damage, do not clean
the headlight lens with chemical
solvents or strong detergents.

i Information
A normally functioning lamp may
flicker momentarily to stabilize the
vehicle’s electrical control system.
However, if the lamp goes out after
flickering momentarily, or contin-
ues to flicker, we recommend the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
The position light may not turn on
when the position light switch is
turned on, but the position light and
headlight switch may turn on when
the headlight switch is turned on.
This may be caused by network fail-
ure or vehicle electrical control sys-
tem malfunction. If this occurs, we
recommend the system be checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
i Information
The headlight aiming should be ad-
justed after an accident or after the
headlight assembly is reinstalled.

Traffic Change (For Europe)
The low beam light distribution is
asymmetric. If you go abroad to a
country with opposite traffic direction,
this asymmetric part will dazzle on-
coming car driver. To prevent dazzle,
ECE regulation demand several tech-
nical solutions (for example, automatic
change system, adhesive sheet, down

Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warning
and caution statements that appear
on the label.
High-pressure washing
When using high-pressure wash-
ers, make sure to maintain suffi-
cient distance from the vehicle.
Insufficient clearance or excessive
pressure can lead to component
damage or water penetration.
Do not spray the camera, sensors
or its surrounding area directly with
a high pressure washer. Shock ap-
plied from high pressure water
may cause the device to not oper-
ate normally.
Do not bring the nozzle tip close to
boots (rubber or plastic covers) or
connectors as they may be dam-
aged if they come into contact with
high pressure water.
Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle’s finish
from rust and deterioration, wash it
thoroughly and frequently at least
once a month with lukewarm or cold
water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road
driving, you should wash it after each
off-road trip. Pay special attention to
the removal of any accumulation of
salt, dirt, mud, and other foreign ma-
terials. Make sure the drain holes in
the lower edges of the doors and
rocker panels are kept clear and
clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollution and similar depos-
its can damage your vehicle’s finish if
not removed immediately.
Even prompt washing with plain wa-
ter may not completely remove all
these deposits. A mild soap, safe for
use on painted surfaces, may be
used.
After washing, rinse the vehicle thor-
oughly with lukewarm or cold water.
Do not allow soap to dry on the finish.

Maintenance
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle
(if equipped)
Automatic car wash which uses
rotating brushes should not be
used as this can damage the sur-
face of your vehicle. A steam
cleaner which washes the vehicle
surface at high temperature may
result the oil to adhere and leave
stains that is difficult to remove.
Use a soft cloth (for example, mi-
crofiber towel or sponge) when
washing your vehicle and dry with
a microfiber towel. When you hand
wash your vehicle, you should not
use a cleaner that finishes with
wax. If the vehicle surface is too
dirty (sand, dirt, dust, contami-
nant, etc.), clean the surface with
water before washing the car.
Waxing
Wax the vehicle when water will no
longer bead on the paint.
Always wash and dry the vehicle be-
fore waxing. Use a good quality liquid
or paste wax, and follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions. Wax all metal
trim to protect it and to maintain its
luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materi-
als with a spot remover will usually
strip the wax from the finish. Be sure
to re-wax these areas even if the rest
of the vehicle does not yet need wax-
ing.
NOTICE
Wiping dust or dirt off the body
with a dry cloth will scratch the
finish.
Do not use steel wool, abrasive
cleaners, or strong detergents
containing highly alkaline or
caustic agents on chrome-plat-
ed or anodized aluminum parts.
This may result in damage to the
protective coating and cause
discoloration or paint deteriora-
tion.
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle
(if equipped)
Do not use any polish protector
such as a detergent, an abrasive
and a polish. In case wax is ap-
plied, remove the wax immediately
using a silicon remover and if any
tar or tar contaminant is on the
surface use a tar remover to clean.
However, be careful not to apply
too much pressure on the painted
area.

Finish damage repair
Deep scratches or stone chips in the
painted surface must be repaired
promptly. Exposed metal will quickly
rust and may develop into a major re-
pair expense.
i Information
If your vehicle is damaged and re-
quires any metal repair or replace-
ment, be sure the body shop applies
anti-corrosion materials to the parts
repaired or replaced.
NOTICE
Matte paint finish vehicle
(if equipped)
In case of matte paint finish vehi-
cles, it is impossible to modify
only the damaged area and repair
of the whole part is necessary. If
the vehicle is damaged and paint-
ing is required, we recommend
that you have your vehicle main-
tained and repaired by an autho-
rized HYUNDAI dealer. Take ex-
treme care, as it is difficult to
restore the quality after the repair.
Bright-metal maintenance
To remove road tar and insects,
use a tar remover, not a scraper or
other sharp object.
To protect the surfaces of
bright-metal parts from corrosion,
apply a coating of wax or chrome
preservative and rub to a high lus-
ter.
During winter weather or in coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive gaso-
lineeum jelly or other protective
compound.
Underbody maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and
snow removal and dust control may
collect on the underbody. If these ma-
terials are not removed, accelerated
rusting can occur on the underbody
parts such as the fuel lines, frame,
floor pan and exhaust system, even
though they have been treated with
rust protection.
Thoroughly flush the vehicle under-
body and wheel openings with luke-
warm or cold water once a month,
after off-road driving and at the end of
each winter. Pay special attention to
these areas because it is difficult to
see all the mud and dirt. It will do
more harm than good to wet down
the road grime without removing it.
The lower edges of the doors, rocker
panels, and frame members have
drain holes that should not clog with
dirt; trapped water in these areas can
cause rusting.

Maintenance
WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test the
brakes while driving slowly to see
if they have been affected by wa-
ter. If braking performance is im-
paired, dry the brakes by applying
them lightly while maintaining a
slow forward speed.
Aluminum wheel maintenance
The aluminum wheels are coated
with a clear protective finish.
Do not use any abrasive cleaner,
polishing compound, solvent, or
wire brushes on aluminum wheels.
They may scratch or damage the
finish.
Clean the wheel when it has
cooled.
Use only a mild soap or neutral de-
tergent, and rinse thoroughly with
water. Also, be sure to clean the
wheels after driving on salted
roads. This helps prevent corro-
sion.
Avoid washing the wheels with
high-speed car wash brushes.
Do not use any alkaline or acid de-
tergent. It may damage and cor-
rode the aluminum wheels coated
with a clear protective finish.
Corrosion protection
Protecting your vehicle from corro-
sion
By using the most advanced design
and construction practices to combat
corrosion, we produce vehicles of the
highest quality. However, this is only
part of the job. To achieve the long-
term corrosion resistance your vehi-
cle can deliver, the owner’s coopera-
tion and assistance is also required.
Common causes of corrosion
The most common causes of corro-
sion on your vehicle are:
Road salt, dirt and moisture that is
allowed to accumulate underneath
the vehicle.
Removal of paint or protective
coatings by stones, gravel, abra-
sion or minor scrapes and dents
which leave unprotected metal ex-
posed to corrosion.
High-corrosion areas
If you live in an area where your vehi-
cle is regularly exposed to corrosive
materials, corrosion protection is par-
ticularly important. Some of the com-
mon causes of accelerated corrosion
are road salts, dust control chemi-
cals, ocean air and industrial pollu-
tion.
8-87
08
Moisture breeds corrosion
Moisture creates the conditions in
which corrosion is most likely to oc-
cur. For example, corrosion is accel-
erated by high humidity, particularly
when temperatures are just above
freezing. In such conditions, the cor-
rosive material is kept in contact with
the vehicle’s surface by moisture that
slowly evaporates.
Mud is particularly corrosive because
it dries slowly and holds moisture in
contact with the vehicle. Although the
mud appears to be dry, it can still re-
tain moisture and promote corrosion.
High temperatures can also acceler-
ate corrosion of parts that are not
properly ventilated so the moisture
can be dispersed. For all these rea-
sons, it is particularly important to
keep your vehicle clean and free of
mud or accumulations of other mate-
rials. This applies not only to the visi-
ble surfaces but particularly to the
underside of the vehicle.
To help prevent corrosion
You can help prevent corrosion from
getting started by observing the fol-
lowing:
Keep your vehicle clean
The best way to prevent corrosion is
to keep your vehicle clean and free of
corrosive materials. Attention to the
underside of the vehicle is particularly
important.
If you live in a high-corrosion area
— where road salts are used, near
the ocean, areas with industrial
pollution, acid rain, etc.—, you
should take extra care to prevent
corrosion. In winter, hose off the
underside of your vehicle at least
once a month and be sure to clean
the underside thoroughly when
winter is over.
When cleaning underneath the ve-
hicle, give particular attention to
the components under the fenders
and other areas that are hidden
from view. Do a thorough job; just
dampening the accumulated mud
rather than washing it away will ac-
celerate corrosion rather than pre-
vent it. Water under high pressure
and steam are particularly effective
in removing accumulated mud and
corrosive materials.
When cleaning lower door panels,
rocker panels and frame members,
be sure that drain holes are kept
open so that moisture can escape
and not be trapped inside to accel-
erate corrosion.
8-88
Maintenance
Keep your garage dry
Don’t park your vehicle in a damp,
poorly ventilated garage. This cre-
ates a favorable environment for cor-
rosion. This is particularly true if you
wash your vehicle in the garage or
drive it into the garage when it is still
wet or covered with snow, ice or mud.
Even a heated garage can contribute
to corrosion unless it is well ventilated
so moisture is dispersed.
Keep paint and trim in good condi-
tion
Scratches or chips in the finish should
be covered with “touch-up” paint as
soon as possible to reduce the possi-
bility of corrosion. If bare metal is
showing through, the attention of a
qualified body and paint shop is rec-
ommended.
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are
highly corrosive and may damage
painted surfaces in just a few hours.
Always remove bird droppings as
soon as possible.
Don’t neglect the interior
Moisture can collect under the floor
mats and carpeting and cause corro-
sion. Check under the mats periodi-
cally to be sure the carpeting is dry.
Use particular care if you carry fertil-
izers, cleaning materials or chemicals
in the vehicle.
These should be carried only in prop-
er containers and any spills or leaks
should be cleaned up, flushed with
clean water and thoroughly dried.
Interior care
Interior general precautions
Prevent chemicals such as perfume,
cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand clean-
er, and air freshener from contacting
the interior parts because they may
cause damage or discoloration. If
they do contact the interior parts,
wipe them off immediately. See the
instructions that follow for the proper
way to clean vehicle interior surfaces.
NOTICE
Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electrical/
electronic components inside the
vehicle as this may damage them.
NOTICE
When cleaning leather products
(steering wheel, seats etc.), use
neutral detergents or low alcohol
content solutions. If you use high
alcohol content solutions or acid/
alkaline detergents, the color of
the leather may fade or the surface
may get stripped off.

Cleaning the upholstery and in-
terior trim
Vehicle interior surfaces (if
equipped)
Remove dust and loose dirt from inte-
rior surfaces with a whisk broom or a
vacuum cleaner. If necessary, clean
interior surfaces with a mixture of
warm water and mild non-detergent
cleaner (test all cleaners on a con-
cealed area before use).
Fabric (if equipped)
Remove dust and loose dirt from fab-
ric with a whisk broom or vacuum
cleaner. Clean with a mild soap solu-
tion recommended for upholstery or
carpets. Remove fresh spots immedi-
ately with a fabric spot cleaner. If
fresh spots do not receive immediate
attention, the fabric can be stained
and its color can be affected. Also, its
fire-resistant properties can be re-
duced if the material is not properly
maintained.
NOTICE
Using anything but recommended
cleaners and procedures may af-
fect the fabric’s appearance and
fire-resistant properties.
Leather (if equipped)
Feature of Seat Leather
- Leather is made from the outer
skin of an animal, which goes
through a special process to be
available for use. Since it is a nat-
ural object, each part differs in
thickness or density.
Wrinkles may appear as a natural
result of stretching and shrinking
depending on the temperature
and humidity.
- The seat is made of stretchable
fabric to improve comfort.
- The parts contacting the body are
curved and the side supporting
area is high which provides driv-
ing comfort and stability.
- Wrinkles may appear naturally
from usage. It is not a fault of the
products.
CAUTION
• Wrinkles or abrasions which ap-
pear naturally from usage are
not covered by warranty.
Belts with metallic accessories,
zippers or keys inside the back
pocket may damage the seat
fabric.
Make sure not to wet the seat. It
may change the nature of natu-
ral leather.
Jeans or clothes which could
bleach may contaminate the
surface of the seat covering fab-
ric.
8-90
Maintenance
Caring for the leather seats
- Vacuum the seat periodically to
remove dust and sand on the
seat. It will prevent abrasion or
damage of the leather and main-
tain its quality.
- Wipe the natural leather seat cov-
er often with dry or soft cloth.
- Use of proper leather protective
may prevent abrasion of the cov-
er and helps maintain the color.
Be sure to read the instructions
and consult a specialist when us-
ing leather coating or protective
agent.
- Light colored (beige, cream
beige) leather is easily contami-
nated and the stain is noticeable.
Clean the seats frequently.
- Avoid wiping with wet cloth. It
may cause the surface to crack.
Cleaning the leather seats
- Remove all contaminations in-
stantly. Refer to instructions be-
low for removal of each contami-
nant.
- Cosmetic products (sunscreen,
foundation, etc.)
Apply cleansing cream on a cloth
and wipe the contaminate spot.
Wipe off the cream with a wet
cloth and remove water with a dry
cloth.
- Beverages (coffee, soft drink,
etc.)
Apply a small amount of neutral
detergent and wipe until contami-
nations do not smear.
- Oil
Remove oil instantly with absorb-
able cloth and wipe with stain re-
mover used only for natural leath-
er.
- Chewing gum
Harden the gum with ice and re-
move gradually.

Maintenance
The emission control system of your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please see the warranty in-
formation contained in the Service
Passport in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all
emission regulations.
There are three emission control sys-
tems which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys-
tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys-
tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is
recommended that you have your car
inspected and maintained by an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer in accor-
dance with the maintenance sched-
ule in this manual.
Caution for the Inspection and
Maintenance Test (With Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system)
To prevent the vehicle from mis-
firing during dynamometer test-
ing, turn the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system off by
pressing the ESC switch.
• After dynamometer testing is
completed, turn the ESC system
back on by pressing the ESC
switch again.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent air
pollution caused by blow-by gases
being emitted from the crankcase.
This system supplies fresh filtered air
to the crankcase through the air in-
take hose. Inside the crankcase, the
fresh air mixes with blow-by gases,
which then pass through the PCV
valve into the induction system.
2. Evaporative emission con-
trol system
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuel
vapors from escaping into the atmo-
sphere.
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the
onboard canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in
the canister are drawn into the surge
tank through the purge control sole-
noid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve
(PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM); when the engine
coolant temperature is low during
idling, the PCSV closes so that evap-
orated fuel is not taken into the en-
gine. After the engine warms up
during ordinary driving, the PCSV
opens to introduce evaporated fuel to
the engine.
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
8-93
08
3. Exhaust emission control
system
The Exhaust Emission Control Sys-
tem is a highly effective system which
controls exhaust emissions while
maintaining good vehicle perfor-
mance.
When the engine starts or fails to
start, excessive attempts to restart
the engine may cause damage to the
emission system.
Vehicle modifications
This vehicle should not be modi-
fied. Modification of your vehicle
could affect its performance, safety
or durability and may even violate
governmental safety and emis-
sions regulations.
In addition, damage or perfor-
mance problems resulting from
any modification may not be cov-
ered under warranty.
If you use unauthorized electronic
devices, it may cause the vehicle
to operate abnormally, wire dam-
age, battery discharge and fire. For
your safety, do not use unautho-
rized electronic devices.
Engine exhaust gas precautions
(carbon monoxide)
Carbon monoxide can be present
with other exhaust fumes. There-
fore, if you smell exhaust fumes of
any kind inside your vehicle, have
it inspected and repaired immedi-
ately. If you ever suspect exhaust
fumes are coming into your vehi-
cle, drive it only with all the win-
dows fully open. Have your vehicle
checked and repaired immediate-
ly.
WARNING
Exhaust
Engine exhaust gases contain car-
bon monoxide (CO). Though color-
less and odorless, it is dangerous
and could be lethal if inhaled. Fol-
low the instructions on this page
to avoid CO poisoning.
Do not operate the engine in con-
fined or closed areas (such as ga-
rages) any more than what is nec-
essary to move the vehicle in or
out of the area.
When the vehicle is stopped in an
open area for more than a short
time with the engine running, ad-
just the ventilation system (as
needed) to draw outside air into
the vehicle.
Never sit in a parked or stopped
vehicle for any extended time with
the engine running.
When the engine stalls or fails to
start, excessive attempts to restart
the engine may cause damage to
the emission control system.

Maintenance
Operating precautions for cata-
lytic converters (if equipped)
WARNING
The exhaust system and catalytic
system are very hot while the en-
gine is running or immediately af-
ter the engine is turned off. To
avoid SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
Do not park, idle, or drive the ve-
hicle over or near flammable ob-
jects, such as grass, vegetation,
paper, leaves, etc. A hot exhaust
system can ignite flammable
items under your vehicle.
Keep away from the exhaust
system and catalytic converter
or you may get burned.
Also, do not remove the heat
sink around the exhaust system,
do not seal the bottom of the ve-
hicle, and do not coat the vehi-
cle for corrosion control. It may
present a fire risk under certain
conditions.
Your vehicle is equipped with a cata-
lytic converter emission control de-
vice. To prevent damage to the cata-
lytic converter and to your vehicle,
take the following precautions:
Use only UNLEADED FUEL for
Petrol engine.
Do not operate the vehicle when
there are signs of engine malfunc-
tion, such as misfire or a notice-
able loss of performance.
Do not misuse or abuse the en-
gine. Examples of misuse are
coasting with the ignition off and
descending steep grades in gear
with the ignition off.
Do not operate the engine at high
idle speed for extended periods (5
minutes or more).
Do not modify or tamper with any
part of the engine or emission con-
trol system. All inspections and ad-
justments must be made by an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Avoid driving with a extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, dam-
aging the catalytic converter.
Failure to observe these precautions
could result in damage to the catalytic
converter and to your vehicle. Addi-
tionally, such actions could void your
warranties.

Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF)
(if equipped)
Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) sys-
tem removes the soot in the exhaust
gas. The GPF system automatically
burns (or oxidizes) the accumulated
soot in accordance with driving situa-
tions, unlike a disposable air filter.
In other words, the accumulated soot
is automatically purged out by the en-
gine control system and by the high
exhaustgas temperature at normal/
high driving speeds.
However, when the vehicle is contin-
ually driven at repeated short distanc-
es or driven at low speed for a long
time, the accumulated soot may not
be automatically removed because of
low exhaust gas temperature. In this
case, the accumulated soot may
reach a certain amount regardless of
the soot oxidization process, then the
GPF lamp ( ) will illuminate.
The Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF)
lamp stops illuminating, when the
driving speed exceeds 80 km/h (50
mph) with engine rpm 1,500 ~ 4,000
and the gear in the 3rd position or
above for approximately 30 minutes.
When the GPF lamp starts to blink or
the warning message “Check ex-
haust system” pops up even though
the vehicle was driven as mentioned
above, we recommend that you have
the GPF system checked by an au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer.
With GPF lamp blinking for an ex-
tended period of time, it may damage
the GPF system and lower the fuel
economy.
CAUTION
We recommend you to use only
the regulated gasoline fuels, when
your vehicle is equipped with the
GPF system.
When you use other gasoline fuels
which contain unspecified addi-
tives, they may damage the GPF
system and cause exhaust emis-
sion problems.

Maintenance
Diesel particulate filter (DPF)
(if equipped)
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
system removes the soot in the ex-
haust gas. Unlike a disposable air fil-
ter, the DPF system automatically
burns (oxidizes) and removes the ac-
cumulated soot according to the driv-
ing condition. In order words, the ac-
tive burning by engine control system
and high exhaust gas temperature
caused by normal/high diving condi-
tion burns and removes the accumu-
lated soot.
However, if the vehicle continues to
be driven at repeated short distance
or driven at low speed for a long time,
the accumulated soot may not be au-
tomatically removed because of low
exhaust gas temperature. More than
a certain amount of soot deposited,
the malfunction indicator light ( )
illuminates.
When the malfunction indicator light
illuminates, it may turn-off after driv-
ing the vehicle at more than 60km/h
(37 mph) or at more than second gear
with 1500~2500 engine rpm for a cer-
tain time (for about 25 minutes).
If the malfunction indicator light ( )
is not turn-off or blinking continuesly
in spite of the procedure, visit a pro-
fessional workshop and check the
DPF system. HYUNDAI recommends
to visit an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er/service partner.
If you continue to drive with the mal-
function indicator light blinking for a
long time, the DPF system can be
damaged and fuel consumption can
be worsen and the engine durability
can be worsen by oil dilution.
CAUTION
Diesel Fuel (if equipped with DPF)
We recommend you to use only
the regulated diesel fuels, when
your vehicle is equipped with the
DPF system.
When you use other diesel fuels,
which is high in sulfurs (above 10
ppm) or contains unspecified addi-
tives, it may damage the DPF sys-
tem and cause the white smoke
emission.
Lean NOx Trap (if equipped)
The Lean NOx Trap (LNT) system re-
moves the nitrogen oxide in the ex-
haust gas. The smell can occur in the
exhaust gas depending on the quality
of the fuel and it can degrade NOx re-
duction performance, please use the
regulated automotive diesel fuel.
The LNT warning light blinks if the
LNT performance is degraded.
( )
In this case, the warning light illumi-
nates and the warning alarm sounds
while showing a warning message
“Self Regeneration” on the cluster
display.
For more details, refer to “Self
Regeneration Mode” in chapter 8.

Storing urea solution
Store urea solution only in contain-
ers made with the following materi-
als.
-DIN EN 10 088-1-/-2-/-3-speci-
fied CR-Ni steel
-Mo-Cr-Ni steel
-Polypropylene
-Polyethylene
Do not store urea solution in con-
tainers made with the following
materials.
-Aluminum, copper, copper alloy,
non-alloyed still, and galvanized
steel
Urea solution dissolves the metal ma-
terials, severely damaging the ex-
haust purification system.
Information
Urea solution is a water-soluble sub-
stance, which is inflammable, non-tox-
ic, colorless and odorless.
NOTICE
• The following situations may
damage the DPF system.
-Fuels or any unauthorized liq-
uids are added to the urea
solution tank
-Additives are mixed in the
urea solution
-Water is mixed in the urea
solution
Use only specified urea solu-
tion.
When any unauthorized urea
solution is added to the tank, we
recommend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
When any foreign substances
enter the urea solution tank, the
following problems may occur.
-Increased emission
-DPF system malfunction
-Engine failure
Never add used urea solution as
its quality cannot be guaran-
teed. Always add new urea solu-
tion.
WARNING
Do not apply any external impact on
the DPF system. It may damage the
catalyst, which is equipped inside
the DPF system.
Do not modify the DPF system by
redirecting or lengthening the ex-
haust pipe. It may adversely effect
the DPF system.
Avoid contact with the drained wa-
ter from the exhaust pipe. The water
is slightly acid and harmful to skin.
If contacted, thoroughly wash it off.
Any modification of the DPF system
may cause system malfunction. The
DPF system is controlled by a com-
plex device.
Wait for the DPF system to cool
down before maintenance, as it is
hot due to heat generation. Other-
wise, it may cause skin burn.
The Selective Catalytic Reduction
system (for example, urea solution
nozzle, urea solution pump, and
DCU) operates for approximately 2
minutes more to eliminate the re-
maining urea solution inside, even
after the engine is turned OFF. Be-
fore working on the vehicle, make
sure that the Selective Catalytic Re-
duction system is completely turned
OFF.
Poor urea solution or unauthorized
liquids may damage vehicle com-
ponents, including the DPF sys-
tem. Any unverified additives in
the urea solution may clog the
SCR catalyst and cause other mal-
functions, which require the ex-
pensive DPF system to be re-
placed.

Maintenance
WARNING
When the urea solution contacts
with the eyes or the skin, you
should thoroughly wash the
contaminated skin area.
When you swallow the urea
solution, thoroughly rinse your
mouth and drink a lot of fresh
water. Then, immediately con-
sult a doctor.
When your cloth is contaminat-
ed with the urea solution, imme-
diately change your cloth.
When you have an allergic reac-
tion to the urea solution, imme-
diately consult a doctor.
Keep children away from urea
solution.
When opening the urea solution
tank cap at high outside tem-
peratures, ammonia vapors may
escape. Ammonia vapors have a
pungent smell and primarily
cause irritation of the:
-Skin
-Mucous membranes
-Eyes
You may experience a burning
sensation in your eyes, nose
and throat, as well as coughing
and watering of the eyes. Do not
inhale ammonia vapors. Do not
allow urea solution to come in
direct contact with your skin. It
is hazardous to your health.
Wash any affected areas off with
plenty of clean water. If neces-
sary, consult a doctor.
When handling urea solution in
closed space, ensure good ven-
tilation. When the bottle of urea
solution container is opened,
pungent smelling fumes may es-
cape
NOTICE
Wipe off any urea solution spill-
age with water or dampened
cloth. When the urea solution is
crystalized, wipe it off with
sponge or cloth, which is damp-
ened in cold water.
When the urea solution spillage
is exposed in the air for an ex-
tended period of time, it is crys-
talized in white, damaging the
vehicle surface.
When urea solution overflows
onto vehicle surface, wash out
vehicle surface with clean water
to prohibit corrosion from oc-
curring.
Store the urea solution tank only
in well ventilated locations.
When urea solution is exposed
to hot temperature at approxi-
mately 50°C (122°F) for an ex-
tended period of time (for exam-
ple, under direct sunlight),
chemical decomposition may
occur, emitting ammonia vapor.
In case the vehicle was parked
at very low ambient temperature
(below 11°C (33°F) for a long
time, the urea solution will be
frozen in the urea solution tank.
With frozen urea, the tank level
may not be detected correctly
until the urea solution melts. In-
correct urea or diluted urea may
increase the freezing point, so
only use specified urea solution.
The time for the urea solution to melt
varies in accordance with driving condi-
tions and outside temperatures.
