Convenient features of your vehicle
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate normally,
the warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate on the instrument cluster. You
may steer the vehicle, but it will
require increased steering efforts.
Take your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Easy Access Function
When exiting the vehicle the driver’s seat
will move rearward when the engine is
turned off and the shift lever in P (Park).
When entering the vehicle the driver’s
seat will move forward when the ignition
switch is placed to the ACC position.
You can activate or deactivate the Easy
Access Function from the User Settings
Mode on the LCD display.
For more information, refer to the
"LCD Display" section in this chapter.
Electric Power Steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering the
vehicle. If the engine is turned off or if the
power steering system becomes inoper-
ative, you may still steer the vehicle, but
it will require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
The following symptoms may occur dur-
ing normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high immedi-
ately after placing the ignition switch in
the ON position.
This happens as the system performs the
EPS system diagnostics. When the diag-
nostics is completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is in
the ON or OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal noise may
occur. If temperature rises, the noise will
disappear. This is a normal condition.
• When an error is detected from the EPS, the warning light will illuminate on the
instrument cluster and the steering
efforts may be increased. When the fol-
lowing symptoms occur, immediately
drive the vehicle to a safe area and
check it.

Driving your vehicle
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the follow-
ing precautions:
NEVER allow children or any per-
son who is unfamiliar with the
vehicle to touch the ignition
switch or related parts.
Unexpected and sudden vehicle
movement can occur.
NEVER reach through the steer-
ing wheel for the ignition switch,
or any other control, while the
vehicle is in motion. The pres-
ence of your hand or arm in this
area may cause a loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident.
WARNING NEVER turn the ignition switch to
the LOCK or ACC position while the
vehicle is in motion except in an
emergency. This will result in the
engine turning off and loss of
power assist for the steering and
brake systems. This may lead to
loss of directional control and brak-
ing function, which could cause an
accident.
Before leaving the driver's seat,
always make sure the shift lever is
in 1st gear (for manual transmis-
sion vehicle) or P (Park, for auto-
matic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) position,
apply the parking brake, and turn
ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.

Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
The Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC) helps
prevent the vehicle from rolling back-
wards when starting a vehicle from a
stop on a hill. The system operates the
brakes automatically for approximately 2
seconds and releases the brake after 2
seconds or when the accelerator pedal is
depressed.
The HAC does not operate when theshift lever is in P (Park) or N
(Neutral)
The HAC activates even though the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is
off but does not activate when the
ESC has malfunctioned.
Good Braking Practices
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is driv-
en 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 light-
ly until the braking action returns to nor-
mal, 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 call an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for assis-
tance.
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 moving 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 forward.
NOTICE
Always be ready to depress the
accelerator pedal when starting off
on a incline. The HAC activates only
for approximately 2 seconds.
WARNING
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a complete
stop and continue to depress the
brake pedal. Move the shift lever
into the 1
stgear (for manual trans-
mission vehicle) or P (Park, for
automatic transmission vehicle)
position, then apply the parking
brake, and place the ignition switch
in the LOCK/OFF position.
Vehicles parked with the parking
brake not applied or not fully
engaged may roll inadvertently and
may cause injury to the driver and
others. ALWAYS apply the parking
brake before exiting the vehicle.

The hazard warning flasher serves as a
warning to other drivers to exercise
extreme caution when approaching,
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emergency
repairs are being made or when the vehi-
cle is stopped near the edge of a road-
way.
To turn the hazard warning flasher on or
off, press the hazard warning flasher but-
ton. The button is located in the center
fascia panel. Both the left and right turn
signal lights will flash simultaneously.
• The hazard warning flasher operates
whether your vehicle is running or not.
The turn signals do not work when the hazard flasher is on.
If the Engine Stalls While
Driving
Reduce your speed gradually, keepinga straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place.
Turn on your hazard warning flasher.
Try to start the engine again. If your vehicle will not start, contact an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer or seek other
qualified assistance.
If the Engine Stalls at a
Crossroad or Crossing
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, if safe to do so, move the shift
lever to the N (Neutral) position and then
push the vehicle to a safe location.
If you Have a Flat Tire While
Driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
Take your foot off the accelerator pedaland let the vehicle slow down while
driving straight ahead. Do not apply the
brakes immediately 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 possible and park on
firm, level ground. If you are on a divid-
ed highway, do not park in the median
area between the two traffic lanes.
When the vehicle is stopped, press the hazard warning flasher button, move
the shift lever into P(Park), and apply
the parking brake, and place the igni-
tion switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
Have all passengers get out of the vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the
side of the vehicle that is away from
traffic.
When changing a flat tire, follow the instructions provided later in this chap-
ter.

What to do in an emergency
If your temperature gauge indicates over-
heating, you experience a loss of power,
or hear loud pinging or knocking, the
engine may be overheating. If this hap-
pens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon asit is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (Park) and set the parking brake. If the air condi-
tioning is ON, turn it OFF.
3. If engine coolant is running out under 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 operat-
ing. If the fan is not running, turn the
engine off. 4. Check for coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the vehicle. (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 call the
nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer
for assistance. 6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine tem-
perature has returned to normal.
Then, if coolant has been lost, careful-
ly add coolant to the reservoir to bring
the fluid level in the reservoir up to the
halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheating. If over-
heating happens again, call an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.

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
serious injury.
WARNING
Your vehicle is
equipped with a pres-
surized coolant reserve
tank. NEVER remove
the coolant reserve tank
cap or the radiator drain plug while
the engine and radiator are HOT.
Hot coolant and steam may blow
out under pressure, causing seri-
ous injury.
Turn the engine off and wait until
the engine cools down. Use
extreme care when removing the
coolant reserve tank cap. Wrap a
towel or thick rag around it, and
turn it counterclockwise slowly to
release some of the pressure from
the system. Step back while the
pressure is released.
(Continued)
(Continued)
When you are sure all the pressure
has been released, continue turn-
ing the cap counterclockwise to
remove it.
WARNING
Serious loss of coolant indicates a
leak in the cooling system and
should be checked as soon as pos-
sible by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
CAUTION

What to do in an emergency
If it is hard to loosen the tire hold-
down wing bolt by hand, you can
loosen it easily using the jack handle.
1. Put the jack handle (1) inside of the tire hold-down wing bolt.
2. Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt counterclockwise with the jack
handle.
Changing tires
Follow these steps to change your
vehicle's tire:
1. Park on a level, firm surface.
2. Move the shift lever into P (Park)or into R (Reverse) if equipped

cautions:

Never place any portion of
your body 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 pro-
vided 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 sup-
port.
(Continued)
(Continued)
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.
