Features of your vehicle
Average fuel economy (if equipped)
(L/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the average fuel
consumption from the total fuel used and
the distance since the last average fuel
economy reset. The total fuel used is cal-
culated from the fuel consumption input.
For an accurate calculation, drive more
than 50 m (0.03 miles).
Pressing the DISP button for more than 1
second, when the average fuel consump-
tion is displayed, clears the average fuel
consumption to zero (--.-).
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 km/h after
refueling more than 6 l, the average fuel
consumption will be cleared to zero (---).
You can activate or deactivate the fea-
ture, resetting the average fuel economy
after refueling more than 6 l.
Refer to "User setting" in this section. Instant fuel economy (if equipped)
(L/100 km or MPG)
This mode calculates the instant fuel
consumption during the last few sec-
onds.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupt-
ed, the “Distance to empty” function
may not operate correctly.
The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 6 liters (1.6
gallons) of fuel are added to the vehi-
cle.
• The fuel economy and distance to empty may vary significantly based
on driving conditions, driving habits,
and condition of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty is an estimate of the available driving distance. This
value may differ from the actual driv-
ing distance.

NOTICE
• If you travel approximately 50
km~100 km after the engine warms
up, after adding the engine oil, the
warning light will go off.
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3 times within 10 seconds, the warning
light will go off immediately. However,
when you turn off the warning light
without adding the engine oil, the light
will come on again after traveling
approximately 50 km ~ 100 km after
the engine warms up.
Malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) (check engine light)
This indicator light is part of the Engine
Control System which monitors various
emission control system components. If
this light illuminates while driving, it indi-
cates that a potential problem has been
detected somewhere in the emission
control system.
This light will also illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, and will go out in a few seconds
after the engine is started. If it illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to the ON posi-
tion, take your vehicle to your nearest
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and have
the system checked.
Generally, your vehicle will continue to be
drivable, but have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer promptly.
CAUTION
Prolonged driving with theEmission Control System Malfunction Indicator Light illumi-nated may cause damage to theemission control systems whichcould effect drivability and/or fuel economy.
CAUTION - Gasoline engine
If the Emission Control SystemMalfunction Indicator Light illumi-nates, potential catalytic converter damage is possible which couldresult in loss of engine power. Havethe Engine Control System inspect- ed as soon as possible by anauthorized HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
If the light comes on continuously after adding the engine oil and trav-eling approximately 50 km~100 kmafter the engine warms up, takeyour vehicle to your nearest author-ized HYUNDAI dealer and have thesystem checked.
Even if this light doesn't come onafter the engine has started, theengine oil should be checked and supplied periodically.
CAUTION - Diesel engine
(if equipped with DPF)
When the malfunction indicator
light blinks, it may stop blinking after driving the vehicle at morethan 60km/h (37 mph) or at more than second gear with 1500 ~ 2000engine rpm for a certain time (forabout 25 minutes).
If the malfunction indicator lightcontinues to blink in spite of theprocedure, please visit an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer and thencheck the DPF system.
If you continue to drive with themalfunction indicator light blinkingfor a long time, the DPF system canbe damaged and fuel consumption can worsen.

Driving your vehicle
ECONOMICAL OPERATION
Your vehicle's fuel economy depends
mainly on your style of driving, where you
drive and when you drive.
Each of these factors affects how many
kilometers (miles) you can get from a
liter (gallon) of fuel. To operate your vehi-
cle as economically as possible, use the
following driving suggestions to help
save money in both fuel and repairs:
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moder-ate rate. Do not make "jack-rabbit"
starts or full-throttle shifts and maintain
a steady cruising speed. Do not race
between stoplights. Try to adjust your
speed to the traffic so you do not have
to change speeds unnecessarily. Avoid
heavy traffic whenever possible.
Always maintain a safe distance from
other vehicles so you can avoid unnec-
essary braking. This also reduces
brake wear.
Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your vehicle
uses. Driving at a moderate speed,
especially on the highway, is one of the
most effective ways to reduce fuel con-
sumption. Do not "ride" the brake or clutch pedal.
This can increase fuel consumption
and also increase wear on these com-
ponents. In addition, driving with your
foot resting on the brake pedal may
cause the brakes to overheat, which
reduces their effectiveness and may
lead to more serious consequences.
Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated to the recommended pressure.
Incorrect inflation, either too much or
too little, results in unnecessary tire
wear. Check the tire pressures at least
once a month.
Be sure that the wheels are aligned correctly. Improper alignment can
result from hitting curbs or driving too
fast over irregular surfaces. Poor align-
ment causes faster tire wear and may
also result in other problems as well as
greater fuel consumption. Keep your vehicle in good condition.
For better fuel economy and reduced
maintenance costs, maintain your vehi-
cle in accordance with the mainte-
nance schedule in section 7. If you
drive your vehicle in severe conditions,
more frequent maintenance is required
(see section 7 for details).
Keep your vehicle clean. For maximum service, your vehicle should be kept
clean and free of corrosive materials. It
is especially important that mud, dirt,
ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate
on the underside of the vehicle. This
extra weight can result in increased
fuel consumption and also contribute
to corrosion.
Travel lightly. Do not carry unnecessary weight in your vehicle. Weight reduces
fuel economy.
Do not let the engine idle longer than necessary. If you are waiting (and not
in traffic), turn off your engine and
restart only when you're ready to go.

ues to be blinked in spite of the proce-
dure, please visit an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and then check the
DPF system.
If you continue to drive with the malfunc-
tion indicator light blinking for a long
time, the DPF system can be damaged
and fuel consumption can be worsen.
CAUTION - Diesel Fuel
(if equipped with DPF)
It is recommended to use the regu-
lated automotive diesel fuel fordiesel vehicle equipped with theDPF system.
If you use diesel fuel including highsulfur (more than 50 ppm sulfur) and unspecified additives, it cancause the DPF system to be dam-aged and white smoke can be emit-ted.
