Driving your vehicle
Shift-lock system
For your safety, your vehicle has a
shift-lock system which prevents
shifting the gear from P (Park) or N
(Neutral) into R (Reverse) or D
(Drive) unless the brake pedal isdepressed.
To shift from P (Park) or N (Neutral)
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive) :
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the vehicle or place thePOWER button in the ON position.
3. Press the R (Reverse) or D (Drive) button.
When the battery (12 V) is dis-
charged
You cannot shift the gear when the
battery is discharged.
Jump start your vehicle (refer to
“Jump Starting” in chapter 6) or con-
tact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Shift to the P (Park) position, apply
the electronic parking brake as need-
ed such as on a sloped driveway or
hill and place the POWER button in
the OFF position. Take the Key with
you when exiting the vehicle.
LCD Display Messages

Good Driving Practices
Never shift to P (Park) or N(Neutral) to any other position with
the accelerator pedal depressed.
Never shift to P (Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not shift to N (Neutral) when driving. Doing so may result in anaccident.
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. Even light, butconsistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Alway apply the parking brake when parked on a sloped driveway
or hill when leaving the vehicle. Donot depend on placing the gear in
P (Park) to keep the vehicle from
moving. Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. Also,
avoid increasing the regenerative
braking level suddenly. On a slip-
pery surface, an abrupt change in
vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may
cause loss of vehicle control result-ing in an accident
Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothlydepressing and releasing the
accelerator.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seat belt.
In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belt-ed occupant.
Avoid high speeds when cor- nering or turning. (Continued)
WARNING
(Continued)
Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control
of your vehicle at highwayspeeds.
Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off
the roadway and the driver
over steers to reenter the
roadway.
In the event your vehicle
leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
HYUNDAI recommends you
follow all posted speed limits.
