Driving Your Vehicle6-64
Driving in Flooded Areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel hub.
Drive through any water slowly. Allow
adequate stopping distance because
brake performance may be reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them several
times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
Highway Driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or damage
the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged tires,
which may reduce traction or adversely
affect vehicle handling. This could lead
to sudden tire failure that may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as specified
on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil
Driving at higher speeds on the highway
consumes more fuel and is less efficient
than driving at a slower, more moderate
speed. Maintain a moderate speed in
order to conserve fuel when driving on
the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine coolant
level and the engine oil before driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
overheat the engine.

Chain Installation
When installing AutoSock (fabric snow
chain
), follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and mount them as tightly
as possible. Drive slowly (less than 20
mph (30 km/h)) with chains installed. If
you hear the chains contacting the body
or chassis, stop and tighten them. If they
still make contact, slow down until the
noise stops. Remove the AutoSock(fabric
snow chain) as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.When mounting
AutoSock (fabric snow chain), park the
vehicle on level ground away from traffic.
Turn on the vehicle Hazard Warning
Flasher and place a triangular emergency
warning device behind the vehicle (if
available).Always place the vehicle in
P (Park), apply the parking brake and
turn off the engine before installing tire
chains.
NOTICE
When using AutoSock (fabric snow
chain):
• Wrong size chains or improperly
installed chains can damage your
vehicle's brake lines, suspension,
body and wheels.
• If you hear noise caused by chains
contacting the body, retighten the
chain to prevent contact with the
vehicle body.
• To prevent body damage, retighten
the chains after driving 0.3-0.6 miles
(0.5-1.0 km).
Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because it
helps prevent corrosion in the cooling
system, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or
replenish your coolant in accordance
with the maintenance schedule in
chapter 8. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freezing
point is sufficient for the temperatures
anticipated during the winter.
Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See chapter 8
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the
battery and cables as described in
chapter 8. The level of charge in your
battery can be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer or a service station.
Check spark plugs and ignition
system
Inspect your spark plugs as described in
chapter 8 and replace them if necessary.
Also check all ignition wiring and
components to be sure they are not
cracked, worn or damaged in any way.

Information
• As it is normal for engine oil to be consumed during driving, the engine oil level should
be checked on regular basis.
• The engine oil change interval for normal operating conditions is based on the use of
the recommended engine specification.
• The vehicle may be equipped with the Oil Life Management System that predicts
engine oil life based on the driver’s driving history and alerts the driver to change
engine oil.
- If the deterioration of the engine oil increases depending on the driver’s driving
severity, the remaining oil life alert appears on the instrument cluster before the
normal engine oil replacement interval. Have the engine oil and filter changed by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
- Oil Life Management System works when the recommended engine oil is used.
So, if recommended engine oil is not used, replace the engine oil according to the
maintenance schedule under severe usage condition.
Also, check the amount of engine oil regularly as this system assumes that the engi
ne oil is being filled normally.
- Always reset the remaining engine oil life whenever the engine oil is changed.
Otherwise, the indication of remaining Oil life in the Oil Life Management System
may not be accurate. To reset the Engine Oil Change Reminder, select ‘RESET’ from
the infotainment system screen. Then, select ‘Yes’ when the message “Has the engine
oil been changed? Press [Yes] to reset the oil life.” appears on the screen.
- If there is no alert until the maximum maintenance interval, have the vehicle

NOTICE
To prevent damage to your engine:
• Do not spill engine oil when adding
or changing engine oil. Use a funnel
to help prevent oil from being spilled
on engine components. Wipe off
spilled oil immediately.
• The engine oil consumption may
increase while you break in a new
vehicle and it will be stabilized after
driving 4,000 miles.
• The engine oil consumption can be
affected by driving habits, climate
conditions, traffic conditions,
oil quality, etc. Therefore, it is
recommended that you inspect the
engine oil level regularly and refill it
if necessary.
Checking the Engine Oil and
Filter
• The lubrication, rust prevention,
cooling, and cleaning effect of the
engine oil will gradually degrade
during its use. Have the engine oil
and filter changed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
Engine Oil Life Management System
Instructions or the Maintenance
Schedule at the beginning of this
chapter.
• If the maintenance schedule to replace engine oil is exceeded,
the engine oil performance may
deteriorate, and the engine condition
may be affected. Therefore, replace
the engine oil according to the
maintenance schedule.
• To keep the engine in optimal condition, use the recommended
engine oil and filter. If the
recommended engine oil and filter are
not used, replace it according to the
maintenance schedule under severe
usage conditions.
• The purpose of the maintenance schedule for engine oil replacement
is to prevent oil deterioration and it is
irrelevant to oil consumption. Check
and refill engine oil regularly.
