Battery Recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
Recharge your battery using a modern
automatic regulated battery charger at
the AGM battery setting.
WARNING
Always follow these instructions when
recharging your vehicle’s battery to
avoid the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH from explosions or acid burns:

[ Before performing maintenance or
recharging the battery, turn off all
accessories and stop the engine.

[ Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking
materials away from the battery.

[ Always work outdoors or in an area
with plenty of ventilation.

[ Wear eye protection when checking
the battery during charging.

[ The battery must be removed from
the vehicle and placed in a well
ventilated area.

[ The negative battery cable must
be removed first and installed last
when the battery is disconnected.
Disconnect the battery charger in the
following order:
1. Turn off the battery charger main
switch.
2. Unhook the negative clamp from the negative battery terminal.
3. Unhook the positive clamp from the positive battery terminal.

[ Always use batteries for replacement
from an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
AGM battery

[Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM)
batteries are maintenance-free
and we recommend that the AGM
battery be serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. For charging
your AGM battery, use only fully
automatic battery chargers that
are specially developed for AGM
batteries.

[ When replacing the AGM battery,
we recommend that you use parts
for replacement from an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

[ Do not open or remove the cap on
top of the battery. This may cause
leaks of internal electrolyte that
could result in severe injury.

Maintenance9-34
WARNING
Tire failure may cause loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident. To
reduce risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH, take the following precautions:

[ Inspect your tires monthly for proper
inflation as well as wear and damage.

[ The recommended cold tire pressure
for your vehicle can be found in this
manual and on the tire label located
on the driver’s side center pillar.
Always use a tire pressure gauge to
measure tire pressure. Tires with
too much or too little pressure wear
unevenly causing poor handling.

[ Check the pressure of the spare
every time you check the pressure of
the other tires on your vehicle.

[ Replace tires that are worn, show
uneven wear, or are damaged.
Worn tires can cause loss of braking
effectiveness, steering control, or
traction.

[ ALWAYS replace tires with the
same size, type, construction and
tread pattern as each tire that was
originally supplied with this vehicle.
Using tires and wheels other than
the recommended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteristics,
poor vehicle control, or negatively
affect your vehicle’s Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) resulting in a serious
accident.
Information - Power Hop
When fully accelerating the vehicle from
standstill, a front tire oscillation called
“Power Hop” of KONA N may occur
due to the high torque of engine and the
characteristics of high performance tire.
This may be affected by road condition
and temperatures.
Additionally it is a normal phenomenon
in powerful front-wheel drive vehicles.
KONA N will act on this phenomenon
with the traction control in all ESC modes
with the main focus on high performance
characters.
TIRES AND WHEELS

Maintenance9-38
WARNING
To reduce the risk of DEATH or SERIOUS
INJURY:

[ Replace tires that are worn, show
uneven wear, or are damaged.
Worn tires can cause loss of braking
effectiveness, steering control, and
traction.

[ Always replace tires with the same
size as each tire that was originally
supplied with this vehicle. Using
tires and wheels other than the
recommended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteristics,
poor vehicle control, or negatively
affect your vehicle’s Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) resulting in a serious
accident.

[ When replacing tires (or wheels), it
is recommended to replace the two
front or two rear tires (or wheels)
as a pair. Replacing just one tire
can seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling.

[ Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regardless
of the remaining tread, HYUNDAI
recommends that tires be replaced
after six (6) years of normal service.

[ Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high loading conditions can
accelerate the aging process. Failure
to follow this warning may cause
sudden tire failure, which could lead
to a loss of vehicle control resulting
in an accident.
Compact spare tire replacement
(if equipped)
A compact spare tire has a shorter
tread life than a regular size tire.
Replace it when you can see the tread
wear indicator bars on the tire. The
replacement compact spare tire should
be the same size and design tire as the
one provided with your new vehicle
and should be mounted on the same
compact spare tire wheel. The compact
spare tire is not designed to be mounted
on a regular size wheel, and the compact
spare tire wheel is not designed for
mounting a regular size tire.
WARNING
The original tire should be repaired or
replaced as soon as possible to avoid
failure of the spare and loss of vehicle
control resulting in an accident. The
compact spare tire is for emergency
use only. Do not operate your vehicle
over 50 mph (80 km/h) when using the
compact spare tire.

Leather (if equipped)

[F
eatures of seat leather
- Leather is made from the outer skin of an animal, which goes through a
special process to be available for
use. Since it is a natural product,
each part differs in thickness or
density.
Wrinkles may appear as a natural
result of stretching and shrinking
depending on the temperature and
humidity.
- The seat is made of stretchable fabric to improve comfort.
- The parts contacting the body are curved and the side supporting
area is high which provides driving
comfort and stability.
- Wrinkles may appear naturally from usage. It is not a fault of the
products.
NOTICE

[ Wrinkles or abrasions which appear
naturally from usage are not covered
by warranty.

[ Belts with metallic accessories,
zippers or keys inside the back
pocket may damage the seat fabric.

[ Make sure not to wet the seat. It may
change the nature of natural leather.

[ Jeans or clothes which could bleach
may contaminate the surface of the
seat covering fabric.
[
Caring for the leather seats
- Vacuum the seat periodically to remove dust and sand on the seat. It
will prevent abrasion or damage of
the leather and maintain its quality.
- Wipe the natural leather seat cover often with dry or soft cloth.
- Use of proper leather protector may prevent abrasion of the cover and
helps maintain the color. Be sure to
read the instructions and consult
a specialist when using leather
coating or protective agent.

- Light colored (beige, cream beige)
leather is easily contaminated and
the stain is noticeable. Clean the
seats frequently.
- Avoid wiping with wet cloth. It may cause the surface to crack.

[ Cleaning the leather seats
- Remove all contaminations instantly. Refer to instructions below
for removal of each contaminant.
- Cosmetic products (sunscreen, foundation, etc.)
Apply cleansing cream on a cloth
and wipe the contaminated spot.
Wipe off the cream with a wet cloth
and remove water with a dry cloth.
- Beverages (coffee, soft drink, etc.) Apply a small amount of neutral
detergent and wipe until
contaminations do not smear.
- Oil
Remove oil instantly with
absorbable cloth and wipe with
stain remover used only for natural
leather.
- Chewing gum Harden the gum with ice and
remove gradually.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
The emission control system of your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please see the warranty
information contained in the Owner’s
Handbook & Warranty Information
booklet in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all
applicable emission regulations. There
are three emission control systems, as
follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control system
(2) Evaporative emission control system
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to ensure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it
is recommended that you have your
vehicle inspected and maintained
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer in
accordance with the maintenance
schedule in this manual.
NOTICE
For the Inspection and Maintenance
Test (with Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system)

[To prevent the vehicle from misfiring
during dynamometer testing, turn
the Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system off by pressing the ESC
switch (ESC OFF light illuminated).

[ After dynamometer testing is
completed, turn the ESC system back
on by pressing the ESC switch again.
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation system
is employed to prevent air pollution
caused by blow-by gases being emitted
from the crankcase. This system supplies
fresh filtered air to the crankcase through
the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase,
the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases,
which then pass through the PCV valve
into the induction system.
2. Evaporative Including Onboard Refueling Vapor
Recovery (ORVR)
The Evaporative Emission Control System
is designed to prevent fuel vapors from
escaping into the atmosphere. The
ORVR system is designed to allow the
vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded
into a canister while refueling at the gas
station, preventing the escape of fuel
vapors into the atmosphere.
Canister
Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel
tank are absorbed and stored in the
onboard canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the
canister are drawn into the surge tank
through the purge control solenoid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve
is controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM); when the engine coolant
temperature is low during idling, the
PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel
is not taken into the engine. After the
engine warms-up during ordinary
driving, the PCSV opens to introduce
evaporated fuel to the engine.
