Daytime running light
(if equipped)
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) can
make it easier for others to see the
front of your vehicle during the day.
DRL can be helpful in many different
driving conditions, and it is especial-
ly helpful after dawn and before sun-
set.
The DRL system will turn off the ded-
icated lamp when:
1. The front fog light or headlight (low
beam) switch is ON.
2. The engine is OFF.
Headlight leveling device
(if equipped)
Manual type
To adjust the headlight beam level
according to the number of the pas-
sengers and the loading weight in
the luggage area, turn the beam lev-
eling switch.
The higher the number of the switch
is positioned, the lower the headlight
beam level. Always keep the head-
light beam at the proper leveling
position, or headlights may dazzle
other road users.Listed below are the examples of
proper switch settings. For loading
conditions other than those listed
below, adjust the switch position so
that the beam level may be the near-
est as the condition obtained accord-
ing to the list.

It automatically adjusts the headlight
beam level according to the number
of passengers and loading weight in
the luggage area.
And it offers proper headlight beam
under various conditions.
Adaptive front lighting system
(AFLS) (if equipped)
Adaptive front lighting system uses
the steering angle and vehicle
speed, to keep your field of vision
wide by swiveling and leveling the
headlamp.
Change the switch to the AUTO posi-
tion when the engine is running. The
adaptive front lighting system will
operate when the headlamp is ON.
To turn off the AFLS, change the
switch to other positions. After turn-
ing the AFLS off, headlamp swiveling
no longer occurs, but leveling oper-
ates continuously.If the AFLS malfunction indicator
comes on, the AFLS is not working
properly. Drive to the nearest safe
location and restart the engine. If the
indicator continuously remains on,
we recommend that you take your
vehicle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system checked.
