Battery saver function
The purpose of this feature is to prevent
the battery from being discharged.
The system automatically turns off the
position lamp when the driver turns the
vehicle off and opens the driver-side
door.
With this feature, the position lamps will
turn off automatically if the driver parks
on the side of road at night.
However, the position lamps stay ON
even when the driver-side door is opened
if the headlamp switch is turned to the
position lamp or AUTO (if equipped)
position after the engine is turned off.
If necessary, to keep the lamps on
turn the position lamps OFF and ON
again using the headlamp switch on
the steering column after the engine is
turned off.
Headlamp delay function
(if equipped)
If the Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ACC position or the OFF position with
the headlamps ON, the headlamps (and/
or parking lamps) remain on for about
5 minutes. However, if the driver’s door
is opened and closed, the headlights
are turned off after 15 seconds. Also,
with the engine off if the driver’s door is
opened and closed, the headlamps (and/
or parking lamps) are turned off after 15
seconds.
The headlamps (and/or parking lamps)
can be turned off by pressing the lock
button on the smart key twice or turning
the headlamp switch to the OFF or AUTO
position.
You can activate or deactivate the
Headlamp Delay function from the User
Settings Mode in the LCD display.
For more information, refer to the “LCD
Display” section in this chapter.
NOTICE
If the driver exits the vehicle through
another door besides the driver
door, the battery saver function
does not operate and the headlamp
delay function does not turn OFF
automatically.
This may cause the battery to
discharge. To avoid battery discharge,
turn OFF the headlamps manually from
the headlamp switch before exiting the
vehicle.

Convenient Features5-82
Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low,
the performance of the air conditioning
is reduced. Overfilling also reduces the
performance of the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is found,
have the system inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
It is important that the correct type and
amount of oil and refrigerant is used.
Otherwise, damage to the compressor
and abnormal system operation may
occur. To prevent damage, the air
conditioning system in your vehicle
should only be serviced by trained and
certified technicians.
WARNING
Vehicles equipped with R-1234yf
Since the refrigerant is
mildly flammable and
operated at high pressure,
the air conditioning system
should only be serviced
by trained and certified
technicians. It is important
that the correct type and
amount of oil and refrigerant
are used.
All refrigerants should be reclaimed
with proper equipment.
Venting refrigerants directly to the
atmosphere is harmful to individuals
and environment. Failure to heed these
warnings can lead to serious injuries.
OOSN051019N
Air Conditioning refrigerant label
You can find out which air conditioning
r
efrigerant is applied to your vehicle on
the label located inside of the hood.
„Example
OHYK059001
Each symbols and specification on
the air conditioning refrigerant label is
represented as below:
1. Classification of refrigerant
2. Amount of refrigerant
3. Classification of compressor lubricant
4. Caution
5. Flammable refrigerant
6. To require registered technician to service air conditioning system

Wireless Smart Phone Charging
System
OOSN051021L
[A] : Indicator light, [B] : Charging pad
On certain models, the vehicle comes
equipped with a wireless smart phone
charger.
The system will charge compatible
smartphones when all doors are closed,
and when the Engine Start/Stop button is
in the ON or START position.
To charge a cellular phone
The wireless smart phone charging
system charges only the Qi-enabled
smart phones (
). Read the label on
the smart phone accessory cover or
visit your smart phone manufacturer’s
website to check whether your smart
phone supports the Qi technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled smart phone
on the wireless charging unit.
1. Remove other items, including the smart key, from the wireless charging
unit. If not, the wireless charging
process may be interrupted. Place
the smart phone on the center of the
charging pad.
2. The indicator light is orange when the smart phone is charging. The indicator
light will turn blue when phone
charging is complete.
3. You can turn ON or OFF the wireless charging function from the Settings
menu on the instrument cluster.
If your smart phone is not charging:
- Slightly change the position of the
smart phone on the charging pad.
- Make sure the indicator light is orange.
- Make sure the doors are closed and the vehicle is ON.
The indicator light will blink orange for 10
seconds if there is a malfunction in the
wireless charging system.
In this case, temporarily stop the
charging process, and re-attempt to

Information
When using a portable audio device
connected to the power outlet, noise may
occur during playback. If this happens,
use the portable audio device’s power
source.
Antenna
Shark fin antenna
OOSN051024L
The roof antenna transmits and receives
wireless signals such as AM/FM, DAB,
GNSS etc,.

à The signals which antenna can
transmit and receive vary by the
vehicle option.
NOTICE

[Do not clean the inside of the rear
window glass with a cleaner or use a
scraper to remove foreign deposits
as this may cause damage to the
antenna elements.

[ Avoid adding metallic coatings
such as Ni, Cd, and so on. These can
degrade the received AM and FM
broadcast signals.

How Vehicle Radio Works
FM reception
OJF045308L
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the
radio antenna on your vehicle. This signal
is then received by the radio and sent to
your vehicle speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineering
of your audio system ensures the best
possible quality reproduction. However,
in some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear.
This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio stations
or the presence of buildings, bridges or
other large obstructions in the area.
AM (MW, LW) reception
OJF045309L
AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broadcasts.
This is because AM radio waves are
transmitted at low frequencies. These
long, low frequency radio waves can
follow the curvature of the earth rather
than travelling straight out into the
atmosphere.
In addition, they curve around
obstructions so that they can provide
better signal coverage.

05
5-105
FM radio station
OJF045310L
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow
the earth’s surface. Because of this, FM
broadcasts generally begin to fade at
short distances from the station. Also, FM
signals are easily affected by buildings,
mountains, or other obstructions. These
can result in certain listening conditions
which might lead you to believe a
problem exists with your radio.
The following conditions are normal and
do not indicate radio trouble :
JBM004

[Fading - As your vehicle moves away
from the radio station, the signal will
weaken and sound will begin to fade.
When this occurs, we suggest that you
select another stronger station.
[
Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals
or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can disturb
the signal causing static or fluttering
noises to occur. Reducing the treble
level may lessen this effect until the
disturbance clears.
OJF045311L

[Station Swapping - As a FM signal
weakens, another more powerful
signal near the same frequency may
begin to play. This is because your
radio is designed to lock onto the
clearest signal. If this occurs, select
another station with a stronger signal.

[ Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio
signals being received from several
directions can cause distortion or
fluttering. This can be caused by a
direct and reflected signal from the
same station, or by signals from two
stations with close frequencies. If this
occurs, select another station until the
condition has passed.
