Power trunk non-opening conditions
The power trunk will not open or close
automatically, when the vehicle is movingmore than 3 km/h (1.8 mph).

the power trunk, it may not open auto-
matically. After remove the obstacle, try
to open it again. ✽
✽
NOTICE
 The power trunk can be operated when the engine is not running.
However the power operation con-
sumes large amounts of vehicle elec-
tric power. To prevent the battery
from being discharged, do not operate
it excessively e.g.: more than approxi-
mately 10 times repeatedly.
 To prevent the battery from being dis- charged, do not leave the power trunk
in the open position for a long lime.
 Do not apply excessive force while
operating the power trunk. This could
cause damage to the power trunk.
 Do not modify or repair any part of the power trunk by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
 When jacking up the vehicle to change a tire or repair the vehicle, do
not operate the power trunk. This
could cause the power trunk to oper-
ate improperly.
Automatic stop and reversal
If, during power opening or closing, the
trunk is blocked by an object or part of
the body, the power trunk will detect the
resistance, and it will stop movement or
move to the full open position to allow theobject to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak such as from an object that is thin or soft, or
the trunk is near the latched position, the
automatic stop and reversal may notdetect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the power
trunk is forced by a strong impact, the
automatic stop and reversal may oper-
ate.
WARNING
Never leave children or animals
unattended in your vehicle.Children or animals might operate

WARNING
- Refueling
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it can cover your clothes or skin
and thus subject you to the risk
of fire and burns. Always remove
the fuel cap carefully and slowly.
If the cap is venting fuel or if you
hear a hissing sound, wait until
the condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
Do not "top off" after the nozzle automatically shuts off whenrefueling.
Always check that the fuel cap is installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an acci-dent.

Features of your vehicle
(Continued)
Do not get back into a vehicleonce you have begun refueling
since you can generate static
electricity by touching, rubbing
or sliding against any item or fab-
ric (polyester, satin, nylon, etc.)
capable of producing static elec-
tricity. Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching a metal part
of the vehicle, away from the fuel
filler neck, nozzle or other gaso-
line source.
When using an approved portable fuel container, be sure toplace the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling has
begun, contact with the vehicleshould be maintained until the
filling is complete.
(Continued)WARNING - Refueling dan-
gers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling, please
note the following guidelines care-
fully. Failure to follow these guide-
lines may result in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death by fire
or explosion.
Read and follow all warning at the gas station facility.
Before refueling note the location of the Emergency Gasoline Shut-
Off, if available, at the gas station
facility.
Before touching the fuel nozzle, you should eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity dis-
charge by touching another metal
part of the vehicle, a safe dis-
tance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas source.
(Continued)(Continued)Use only approved portable plas-
tic fuel containers designed to
carry and store gasoline.
Do not use cellular phones while refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cel-
lular phones can potentially
ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
When refueling, always shut the engine off. Sparks produced byelectrical components related to
the engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling is
complete, check to make sure thefiller cap and filler door are
securely closed, before starting
the engine.
DO NOT use matches or a lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or leave a lit
cigarette in your vehicle while at
a gas station especially during
refueling. Automotive fuel is
highly flammable and can, when
ignited, result in fire.

vided to store and recall the driver seat,
outside rearview mirror and steering
wheel positions with a simple button
operation. By saving the desired positions
into the system memory, different drivers
can reposition the driver seat, outside
rearview mirror and steering wheel based
upon their driving preference. If the bat-
tery is disconnected, the position memo-
ry will be lost and the driving positionsshould be restored in the system.
✽✽NOTICE
If the memory system does not operate
normally, have the driver position mem-
ory system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Storing positions into memory
using the buttons on the door
Storing driver’s seat positions
1. Shift the shift lever into P while the engine start/stop button is ON.
2. Adjust the driver seat, outside rearview mirror and steering wheel to
positions comfortable for the driver.
3. Press SET button on the control panel. The system will beep once.
4. Press one of the memory buttons (1 or 2) within 5 seconds after pressing the
SET button. The system will beep
twice when the memory has been suc-cessfully stored.
Recalling positions from memory
1. Shift the shift lever into P while theengine start/stop button is ON.
2. To recall the position in memory, press the desired memory button (1 or 2).
The system will beep once, then the
driver seat, outside rearview mirror
and steering wheel will automatically
adjust to the stored positions.
Adjusting one of the control knobs for the
driver seat, outside rearview mirror and
steering wheel while the system is recall-ing the stored positions will cause the
movement for that component to stop
and move in the direction that the control
knob is moved. Other components will
continue to the recalled position.
DRIVER POSITION MEMORY SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)WARNING
Never attempt to operate the driver
position memory system while the
vehicle is moving.
This could result in loss of control, and an accident causing death,
serious injury, or property damage.
WARNING
Use caution when recalling adjust-
ment memory while sitting in the
vehicle. Push the seat position con-
trol knob to the desired position
immediately if the seat moves too
far in any direction.
