Record your key number
The key code number is stamped on the
bar code tag attached to the key set.
Should you lose your keys, this number
will enable an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er to duplicate the keys easily. Remove
the bar code tag and store it in a safe
place. Also, record the code number and
keep it in a safe place (not in the vehicle).
Key operations
Used to start the engine, lock and unlock
the doors.
KEYS (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING- Ignition key
Leaving children unattended in a
vehicle with the ignition key is dan-
gerous even if the key is not in the
ignition switch. Children copy
adults and they could place the key
in the ignition switch. The ignition
key would enable children to oper-
ate power windows or other con-
trols, or even make the vehicle
move, which could result in serious
bodily injury or even death. Never
leave the keys in your vehicle with
unsupervised children.
WARNING
Use only HYUNDAI original parts
for the ignition key in your vehicle.
If an aftermarket key is used, the
ignition switch may not return to
ON after START. If this happens,
the starter will continue to operate
causing damage to the starter
motor and possible fire due to
excessive current in the wiring.

Power windows
The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for power windows to operate.
Each door has a power window switch
that controls that door's window. The driv-
er has a power window lock switch which
can block the operation of passenger
windows. The driver’s door has a master
power window switch that controls all the
windows in the vehicle. The power win-
dows can be operated for approximately
30 seconds after the ignition key is
removed or turned to the ACC or LOCK
position. However, if the front doors
open, the power windows cannot be
operated within the 30 second period.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof (if equipped) in
an open (or partially open) position, your
vehicle may demonstrate a wind buffet-
ing or pulsation noise. This noise is a
normal occurrence and can be reduced
or eliminated by taking the following
actions. 1If the noise occurs with one or
both of the rear windows down, partially
lower both front windows approximate-
ly one inch. If you experience the noise
with the sunroof open, slightly reduce the
size of the sunroof opening.
Window opening and closing
To open or close a window, press down
or pull up the front portion of the corre-
sponding switch to the first detent posi-
tion (5).
Auto down window (if equipped)
(driver’s window)
Pressing the power window switch
momentarily to the second detent posi-
tion (6) completely lowers the driver’s
window even when the switch is
released. To stop the window at the
desired position while the window is in
operation, momentarily pull the switch in
the direction opposite of the window
movement.

Features of your vehicle
Auto up/down window (if equipped)
Pressing or pulling up the power window
switch momentarily to the second detent
position (6) completely lowers or lifts the
window even when the switch is released.
To stop the window at the desired position
while the window is in operation, momen-
tarily pull the switch in the direction oppo-
site of the window’s movement.
If the power window is not operated cor-
rectly, the automatic power window system
must be reset as follows:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion.
2. Close driver’s windows and continue
pulling up on the power window switch
for at least 1 second after the window is
completely closed.Automatic reversal
If the upward movement of the window is
blocked by an object or part of the body,
the window will detect the resistance and
will stop upward movement. The window
will then lower approximately 11.8 in. (30
cm) to allow the object to be cleared.
If the window detects the resistance
while the power window switch is pulled
up continuously, the window will stop
upward movement then lower approxi-
mately 1 in. (2.5 cm). If the power window
switch is pulled up continuously again
within 5 seconds after the window is low-
ered by the automatic window reversal
feature, the automatic window reversal
will not operate.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The automatic reverse feature for the
driver’s window is only active when the
“auto up” feature is used by fully
pulling up the switch. The automatic
reverse feature will not operate if the
window is raised using the halfway posi-
tion on the power window switch.
WARNING
Always check for obstructions
before raising any window to avoid
injuries or vehicle damage. If an
object less than 0.16 in. (4 mm) in
diameter is caught between the
window glass and the upper win-
dow channel, the automatic reverse
window may not detect the resist-
ance and will not stop and reverse
direction.OUN026013OMD040018

Power window lock button
The driver can disable the power win-
dow switches on a front and rear pas-
senger door by pressing the power
window lock button located on the dri-
ver’s door to the LOCK position
(pressed).

ger door power windows.
OMD040020A
CAUTION
To prevent possible damage to
the power window system, do not
open or close two windows or
more at the same time. This will
also ensure the longevity of the
fuse.
Never try to operate the main
switch on the driver's door and
the individual door window
switch in opposing directions at
the same time. If this is done, the
window will stop and cannot be
opened or closed.WARNING - Windows
NEVER leave the ignition key (or
smart key) in the vehicle.
NEVER leave any child unattend-
ed in the vehicle. Even very
young children may inadvertently
cause the vehicle to move, entan-
gle themselves in the windows,
or otherwise injure themselves or
others.
Always double check to make
sure all arms, hands, head and
other obstructions are safely out
of the way before closing a win-
dow.
Do not allow children to play with
the power windows. Keep the dri-
ver’s door power window lock
switch in the LOCK position
(depressed). Serious injury can
result from unintentional window
operation by the child.
Do not extend any head or arms
outside through the window
opening while driving.

NOTICE
If you install an after market HID (high
intensity discharge) head lamp, your
vehicle's audio and electronic device
may malfunction.
Antenna
Glass antenna (if equipped)
When the radio power switch is turned on
while the ignition key is in either the “ON”
or “ACC” position, your car will receive
both AM and FM broadcast signals
through the antenna in the rear window
glass.
AUDIO SYSTEM
OMD040161
CAUTION
Do not clean the inside of the rear
window glass with a cleaner or
scraper to remove foreign
deposits as this may cause dam-
age to the antenna elements.
Avoid adding metallic coatings
such as Ni, Cd, and so on. These
can disturb receiving AM and FM
broadcast signals.

Driving your vehicle
36 5
Remember, your vehicle does not
require extended warm-up. After the
engine has started, allow the engine to
run for 10 to 20 seconds prior to plac-
ing the vehicle in gear. In very cold
weather, however, give your engine a
slightly longer warm-up period.
Don't "lug" or "over-rev" the engine.
Lugging is driving too slowly in too high
a gear resulting in the engine bucking.
If this happens, shift to a lower gear.
Over-revving is racing the engine
beyond its safe limit. This can be avoid-
ed by shifting at the recommended
speeds. Use your air conditioning sparingly.
The air conditioning system is operat-
ed by engine power so your fuel econ-
omy is reduced when you use it.
Open windows at high speeds can
reduce fuel economy.
Fuel economy is less in crosswinds
and headwinds. To help offset some of
this loss, slow down when driving in
these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating con-
dition is important both for economy and
safety. Therefore, have an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer perform scheduled
inspections and maintenance.
WARNING - Engine off dur-
ing motion
Never turn the engine off to coast
down hills or anytime the vehicle is
in motion. The power steering and
power brakes will not function
properly without the engine run-
ning. Instead, keep the engine on
and downshift to an appropriate
gear for engine braking effect. In
addition, turning off the ignition
while driving could engage the
steering wheel lock resulting in
loss of vehicle steering which
could cause serious injury or
death.
