✽ ✽
NOTICE
If the vehicle is equipped with a sun-
roof, be sure not to position cargo
onto the roof in such a way that it
could interfere with sunroof opera-
tion.WARNING
The vehicle center of gravity will
be higher when items are
loaded onto the roof. Avoid sud-
den starts, braking, sharp turns,
abrupt maneuvers or high
speeds that may result in loss
of vehicle control or rollover
resulting in an accident.
Always drive slowly and turn
corners carefully when carry-
ing items on the roof. Severe
wind updrafts, caused by pass-
ing vehicles or natural causes,
can cause sudden upward
pressure on items loaded on
the roof. This is especially true
when carrying large, flat items
such as wood panels or mat-
tresses. This could cause the
items to fall off the roof and
cause damage to your vehicle
or others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of
cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driving
to make sure the items on the
roof are securely fastened.
CAUTION
When carrying cargo on the
roof, take the necessary pre-
cautions to make sure the
cargo does not damage the
roof of the vehicle.
When carrying large objects
on the roof, make sure they do
not exceed the overall roof
length or width.

Care of disc
If the temperature inside the car is
too high, open the car windows to
ventilate before using the system.
It is illegal to copy and use
MP3/WMA files without permis-
sion. Use CDs that are created
only by lawful means.
Do not apply volatile agents, such
as benzene and thinner, normal
cleaners and magnetic sprays
made for analogue disc onto CDs.
To prevent the disc surface from
getting damaged, hold CDs by the
edges or the center hole only.
Clean the disc surface with a piece
of soft cloth before playback (wipe
it from the center to the outside
edge).
Do not damage the disc surface or
attach pieces of sticky tape or
paper.
Make certain only CDs are insert-
ed into the CD player (Do not insert
more than one CD at a time). Keep CDs in their cases after use
to protect them from scratches or
dirt.
Depending on the type of CD-
R/CD-RW CDs, certain CDs may
not operate normally according to
manufacturing companies or mak-
ing and recording methods. In such
circumstances, continued use may
cause malfunctions to your audio
system.

ple), may not play on your car audio.

WARNING- ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!
Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle,
open the windows immediately.
• Do not inhale exhaust fumes.
Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and death
by asphyxiation.

The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose.
If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the under side of the
car, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run the
engine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out.

If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only in an
open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawn
into the interior.
If you must drive with the tailgate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessary:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher
speeds.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, be sure the ventilation air intakes located just in front of the
windshield are kept clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.
