TWO-WAY RADIO OR CELLULAR TELEPHONE INSTALLATION
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 instruc-
tions or consult your Hyundai dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions if you choose
to install one of these devices.

THEFT-ALARM SYSTEMB070A01A-AAT(If Installed)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 "Alarm" stage, and the third
is the "Disarmed" stage. If triggered, the
system provides an audible alarm with
blinking of the turn signal lights.
Locking doors1. Close all doors.
2. Push the "LOCK" button on the trans-
mitter.
3. At the same time all doors lock, the turn
signal light will blink once to indicate
that the system is armed.Unlocking doors1. Push the "UNLOCK" button on the
transmitter.
2. At the same time the driver's door
unlocks, the turn signal light will blink
twice to indicate that the system is
disarmed.NOTE:If you wish to unlock all the doors, press
the "UNLOCK" button on the transmitter
again within 4 seconds.
NOTE:The transmitter will not work if any of
following occur:
- The ignition key is in ignition switch.
- You exceed the operating distance
limit (10 m).
- The battery in the transmitter is weak.
- Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
- The weather is extremely cold.
- The transmitter is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station
or an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the transmitter.
When the transmitter does not work
correctly, open and close the door with
the ignition key. If you have a problem
with the transmitter, contact an autho-
rized Hyundai Dealer.NOTE:Keep the transmitter away from water or
any liquid. If the keyless entry system is
inoperative due to exposure to water or
liquids, it will not be covered by your
manufacturer vehicle warranty.

STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow the
earth's surface. Because of this, FM broad-
casts generally begin to fade at short
distances from the station. Also, FM sig-
nals are easily affected by buildings,
mountains, or other obstructions. These
can result in certain listening conditions
which might lead you to believe a prob-
lem exists with your radio. The following
conditions are normal and do not indicate
radio trouble: AM broadcasts can be received at greater
distances than FM broadcasts. This is
because AM radio waves are transmitted
at low frequencies. These long, low fre-
quency radio waves can follow the curva-
ture of the earth rather than travelling
straight out into the atmosphere. In addi-
tion, they curve around obstructions so
that they can provide better signal cover-
age.
B750A02A-AATHow Car Audio WorksAM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the
radio antenna on your car. This signal is
then received by the radio and sent to
your car speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineering of
your audio system ensures the best pos-
sible quality reproduction. However, in
some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear.

o Station Swapping - As an FM signal
weakens, another more powerful sig-
nal near the same frequency may be-
gin to play. This is because your radio
is designed to lock onto the clearest
signal. If this occurs, select another
station with a stronger signal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig-
nals being received from several di-
rections can cause distortion or flutter-
ing. This can be caused by a direct and
reflected signal from the same station,
or by signals from two stations with
close frequencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition has
passed. o Fading - As your car 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.
o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals or
large obstructions between the trans-
mitter and your radio can disturb the
signal causing static or fluttering noises
to occur. Reducing the treble level
may lessen this effect until the distur-
bance clears.

B750B05Y-AATUsing a cellular phone or a two-way
radioWhen a cellular phone is used inside the
vehicle, noise may be produced from the
audio equipment. This does not mean
that something is wrong with the audio
equipment. In such a case, use the cellu-
lar phone at a place as far as possible
from the audio equipment.
WARNING:
Hyundai recommends that you never
use a cell phone while driving. This could
result in loss of control, and an accident
that may cause death, serious injury, or
property damage. You must stop at a
safe place to use a cellular phone.NOTE:Some states and cities have regulations
prohibiting the use of cell phones while
driving. You should be aware of the spe-
cific requirements in your area.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
7
!
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 mal-
functioning because the decreased
temperature leads to a proportional
lowering of tire pressure.
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:
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and can
contribute to loss of vehicle control
and increased braking distances.
Continued driving on low pressure
tires will cause the tires to overheat
and fail.
TPMS (Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System) Malfunction
Indicator
The TPMS malfunction indicator comes
on and stays on when there is a
problem with the Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System. If the system is able to
correctly detect an under-inflation warn-
ing at the same time as system failure
then it will illuminate both the TPMS
malfunction and the low tire pressure
telltale e.g. if Front Left sensor fails,
the TPMS malfunction indicator turns
on, but if Front Right, Rear Left, or
!
Rear Right tire is under-inflated, the
low tire pressure telltale may turn on at
the same time as the TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator. Have the system
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer as soon as possible to deter-
mine the cause of the problem.
NOTE:
o The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if the vehicle is
moving around electric power sup-
ply cables or radio transmitters
such as police stations, govern-
ment and public offices, broad-
casting stations, military installa-
tions, airports, or transmitting tow-
ers, etc. which can interfere with
normal operation of the Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS).
o The TPMS malfunction indicator
may be illuminated if snow chains
or some electronic devices, such
as notebook computers, are used
in the vehicle. This can interfere
with normal operation of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
