Loss of a smart key
A maximum of two smart keys can
be registered to a single vehicle. If
you happen to lose your smar t key, it
is recommended that you should
immediately take the vehicle and
remaining key to your authorised
HYUNDAI dealer or tow the vehicle,
if necessary.
Smart key precautions
The smart key will not work if any of
the following occur:
•The smart key is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station
or an airport which can interfere
with normal operation of the trans-
mitter.
•The smart key is near a mobile two
way radio system or a mobile
phone.
•Another vehicle’s smart key is
being operated close to your vehi-
cle.
When the smart key does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key. If you have
a problem with the smart key, it is
recommended that you contact an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
If the smart key is in close proximity
to your mobile phone, the signal
could be blocked by your mobile
phone’s normal operational signals.
This is especially important when the
phone is active such as making and
receiving calls, text messaging,
and/or sending/receiving emails.
Avoid placing the smar t key and your
mobile phone in the same location
and always try to maintain an ade-
quate distance between the two
devices.
People with medical devices
such as implanted pacemakers
or cardiac defibrillators should
not carry the smart key near the
heart. The smart key system
may affect the operation of such
implanted medical devices.
Failure to do so may result in
interference with the medical
device, which could result in
serious injury.

due to changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance, it will not
be covered by your manufacturer’s

Keep the smart key away from
electromagnetic materials that
blocks electromagnetic waves to

erly, try replacing the battery with a
new one.

Immobiliser system
The immobiliser 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 immobiliser sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognise
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 recognise your
key’s coding if another immobiliser
key or other metal object (i.e., key
chain) is near the key. The engine
may not start because the metal may
interrupt the transponder signal from
transmitting normally.
If the system repeatedly does not
recognise the coding of the key, it is
recommended 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.
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobiliser
system. It is designed to give
years of trouble-free service, how-
ever you should avoid exposure to
moisture, static electricity and
rough handling. Immobiliser sys-
tem malfunction could occur.
NOTICE
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle.
