This system is designed to provide pro-
tection from unauthorized entry into the
car. This system is operated in three
stages: the first is the "Armed" stage, the
second is the "Theft-alarm" stage, and
the third is the "Disarmed" stage. If trig-
gered, the system provides an audible
alarm with blinking of the hazard warning
lights.
D030100AFD-EU
Armed stage
Park the car and stop the engine. Arm
the system as described below.
1. Remove the ignition key from the igni-
tion switch and exit the vehicle.
2. Make sure that all doors (and tailgate)
and the engine hood are closed and
latched.
3. Lock the doors by using the transmitter
of the keyless entry system.
After completion of the steps above, the
hazard warning lights will blink once to
indicate that the system is armed.

arm. If all doors (and tailgate) and engine
hood are closed after the lock button is
pressed, the hazard warning lights blink
once.Armed

CAUTION
The keyless entry system trans-
mitter is designed to give you
years of trouble-free use, howev-
er it can malfunction if exposed to
moisture or static electricity. If
you are unsure how to use your
transmitter or replace the battery,
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Using the wrong battery can
cause the transmitter to malfunc-
tion. Be sure to use the correct
battery.
To avoid damaging the transmit-
ter, don't drop it, get it wet, or

An inappropriately disposed bat-
tery can be harmful to the environ-
ment and human health.

ing the doors with the key from the front
doors; however, the hazard warning
lights will not blink using this method.

Do not arm the system until all pas-
sengers have left the vehicle. If the
system is armed while a passen-
ger(s) remains in the vehicle, the
alarm may be activated when the
remaining passenger(s) leave the
vehicle. If any door (or tailgate) or
engine hood is opened within 30
seconds after the system enters the
armed stage, the system is dis-
armed to prevent an unnecessary
alarm.

The siren will sound and the hazard
warning lights will blink continuously for
27 seconds, and the alarm will repeat
once more unless the system is dis-
armed. To turn off the system, unlock the
doors with the ignition key or transmitter.
D030400AFD-EU

ard warning lights will blink twice to indi-
cate that the system is disarmed.
After depressing unlock button, if any
door is not opened within 30 seconds,
the system will be rearmed.
✽ ✽
NOTICE

tion (1) of the switch, all vehicle doors
will lock.
When pushing down on the rear por-
tion (2) of the switch, all vehicle doors
will unlock.

WARNING- Unlocked
vehicles
Leaving your vehicle unlocked can
invite theft or possible harm to you
or others from someone hiding in
your vehicle while you are gone.
Always remove the ignition key,
engage the parking brake, close all
windows and lock all doors when
leaving your vehicle unattended.
WARNING- Unattended
children
An enclosed vehicle can become
extremely hot, causing death or
severe injury to unattended chil-
dren or animals who cannot escape
the vehicle. Furthermore, children
might operate features of the vehi-
cle that could injure them, or they
could encounter other harm, possi-
bly from someone gaining entry to
the vehicle. Never leave children or
animals unattended in your vehicle.
WARNING - Doors
The doors should always be fully
closed and locked while the vehi-
cle is in motion to prevent acci-
dental opening of the door.
Locked doors will also discour-
age potential intruders when the
vehicle stops or slows.
Be careful when opening doors
and watch for vehicles, motorcy-
cles, bicycles or pedestrians
approaching the vehicle in the
path of the door. Opening a door
when something is approaching
can cause damage or injury.

WARNING- Driving under
the influence of alcohol or
drugs
Drinking and driving is dangerous.
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 judgement.
Driving while under the influence of
drugs is as dangerous or more dan-
gerous than driving drunk.
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 driv-
er who has been drinking or taking
drugs. Choose a designated driver
or call a cab.
KEY POSITIONS
WARNING
When you intend to park or stop the
vehicle with the engine on, be care-
ful not to depress the accelerator

hand or arm in this area could
cause a loss of vehicle control, an
accident and serious bodily injury
or death.
Do not place any movable objects
around the driver’s seat as they
may move while driving, interfere
with the driver and lead to an acci-
dent.WARNING
Always wear appropriate shoes
when operating your vehicle.

ator pedal, and the clutch (if
