H9
The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High volt-
age components, such as cables
and other parts, may emit electro-
magnetic waves. Even when the
electromagnetic cover blocks elec-
tromagnetic emissions, electro-
magnetic waves may have an effect
on electronic appliances. When
your vehicle is not for a long period
of time, the hybrid system will dis-
charge. You need to drive the vehi-
cle several times a month. We rec-
ommend driving at least for 1 hour
or 16 km. When the hybrid battery is
discharged, or when it is impossi-
ble to jump start the vehicle, con-
tact your HYUNDAI dealer.
Virtual Engine Sound System(VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sound for pedestri-
ans to hear vehicle sound becausethere is limited sound while motor
power is used.
What Does RegenerativeBraking Do?
It uses an electric motor when decel-
erating and braking and transforms
kinetic energy to electrical energy in
order to charge the high voltage bat-
tery.
Battery
The vehicle is composed of a high- voltage battery that drives the
motor and air-conditioner, and an
auxiliary battery (12 V) that drives
the lamps, wipers, and audio sys-tem.
The auxiliary battery is automati- cally charged when the vehicle is in
the ready ( ) mode.
NOTICE
When you start the hybrid
system with the shift lever in
P (Parking), the “ ” indica-tor illuminates on the instru-
ment cluster. The driver can
drive the vehicle, even whenthe engine is stopped.
When you leave the vehicle,
you should turn OFF the
hybrid system or locate the
shift lever in P (Park). When
you depress the accelerator
pedal by mistake, or when the
shift lever is not in P (Park),
the vehicle will abruptly move,
possibly resulting in serious
injury or death.
