changed as follows :
- Type A, B
- Type C
The seat warmer defaults to the OFF position whenever the ignition
switch is turned on. With the seat warmer switch in the
ON position, the heating system in
the seat turns off or on automati-
cally depending on the seat tem-
perature.
WARNING - Seat warmer

Seat cooler (Air ventilation
seat) (if equipped)
The temperature setting of the seat
changes according to the switch
position.
If you want to cool your seat cush-
ion, press the switch (blue color).
Each time you press the button, the airflow will change as follows: The seat warmer (with air ventila-
tion) defaults to the OFF position
whenever the ignition switch is
turned on.
The air ventilation seats function by absorbing air from inside the
vehicle. The air from the air ventila-
tion seats will feel cool if the air
inside the vehicle is cool. To
increase efficiency of the air venti-
lation seats, use the air ventilation
seats with the air conditioning ON.
The air ventilation seats get cool about five minutes later after the
system is turned on.

Children riding in the car should sit in
the rear seat and must always be
properly restrained to minimize the
risk of injury in an accident, sudden
stop or sudden maneuver. According
to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seats than in the front seat.
Larger children not in a child restraint
should use one of the seat belts pro-
vided.
You should be aware of the specific
requirements in your state. Child
and/or infant safety seats must be
properly placed and installed in the
rear seat. You must use a commer-
cially available child restraint system
that meets the requirements of the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS).
Child restraint systems are designed
to be secured in vehicle seats by lap
belts or the lap belt portion of a
lap/shoulder belt, or by a LATCH sys-
tem (if equipped). Children could be injured or killed in
a crash if their restraints are not
properly secured. For small children
and babies, a child seat or infant seat
must be used. Before buying a par-
ticular child restraint system, make
sure it fits your car seat and seat
belts, and fits your child. Follow all
the instructions provided by the man-
ufacturer when installing the child
restraint system.
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
WARNING
A child restraint system must
be placed in the rear seat.
Never install a child or infant
seat on the front passenger's
seat. Should an accident
occur and cause the passen-
ger-side air bag to deploy, it
could severely injure or kill an
infant or child seated in an
infant or child seat. Thus only
use a child restraint in the
rear seat of your vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)
A seat belt or child restraintsystem can become very hot
if it is left in a closed vehicle
on a sunny day, even if the
outside temperature does not
feel hot. Be sure to check the
seat cover and buckles before
placing a child there.
When the child restraint sys- tem is not in use, store it in
the luggage area or fasten it
with a seat belt so that it will
not be thrown forward in the
case of a sudden stop or an
accident.
Children may be seriously injured or killed by an inflating
air bag. All children, even
those too large for child
restraints, must ride in the
rear seat.

Resetting the sunroof
Sunroof needs to be reset if (in the
followings)
- Battery is discharged or discon-nected or the related fuse has been
replaced or disconnected
- The one-touch sliding function of the sunroof does not normally oper-
ate
1. Turn the engine on and close the sunroof glass and sunshade com-
pletely.
2. Release the control lever.
3. Push the sunroof control lever for- ward in the direction of close
(about 10 seconds) until the sun-
roof operates as follows;
SUNSHADE OPEN → TILT OPEN
Then, release the control lever.
CAUTION - Sunroof motor
damage
If you try to open the sunroof when the temperature is belowfreezing or when the sunroof iscovered with snow or ice, theglass or the motor could bedamaged.
CAUTION
Periodically remove any dirt that may accumulate on theguide rail.
If you drive with the sunroof opened right after a car washor rain, water may get insidethe vehicle.
WARNING - Sunroof
Be careful that someone’s head, hands and body are not
trapped by a closing sunroof.
Do not extend the face, neck, arms or body outside through
an opened sunroof while driv-
ing.
Make sure your hands and face are safely out of the way
before closing a sunroof.
The panorama sunroof is made of glass, and it may
break in an accident. If you do
not have your seat belt on, in
an accident, your body could
move past the roof area and
result in serious injury or
death. All passengers should
wear seat belts at all time.

Features of your vehicle
Electric power steering (EPS)
The power steering uses an electric
motor to assist you in steering the
vehicle. If the engine is off or if the
power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is
controlled by a power steering con-
trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque and vehicle speed to
command the motor.
The steering becomes slightly heav-
ier as the vehicle’s speed increases
and becomes lighter as the vehicle’s
speed decreases for optimum steer-
ing control.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power
steering checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
✽ ✽NOTICE
The following may occur during
normal vehicle operation:
• The EPS warning light does not
illuminate when turning the igni-
tion to the ON position.
• The steering gets heavy immedi- ately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the sys-
tem performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
are 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 turned to the ON or
LOCK (OFF) position.
• A motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
• When the vehicle is stationary, if you turn the steering wheel all the
way to the left or right repeatedly,
the steering wheel assist may tem-
porarily be reduced, not a system
malfunction. As time passes. The
steering wheel return to normal
operation. (Continued)(Continued)
• When you operate the steering
wheel in very low temperatures,
system noise may occur. When the
temperature rises, the noise will dis-
appear. This is a normal condition.
• When the charging system warn- ing light comes on or the system
voltage is low, the steering wheel
assist may be reduced.

When the door is open, or if the
engine is not started within 1 minute,
the tachometer pointer may move
slightly with the ignition in the ON
position with the engine OFF. This
movement is normal and will not
affect the accuracy of the tachometer
once the engine is running.
Engine temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the tempera-
ture of the engine coolant when the
ignition switch is ON.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “If the engine over-
heats” in section 6.
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The
engine coolant is under pres-
sure and could cause severe
burns. Wait until the engine is
cool before adding coolant to
the reservoir.
CAUTION
If the gauge moves beyond the
normal range area toward the “H”position, it indicates overheatingthat may damage the engine.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine with-in the tachometer's RED ZONE.
This may cause severe enginedamage.OGD045912
