Operating Door Locks from
Inside the Vehicle
With the door lock button
To unlock a door, push the doorlock button (1) to the "Unlock" posi-
tion. The red mark (2) on the door
lock button will be visible.
To lock a door, push the door lock button (1) to the "Lock" position. If
the door is locked properly, the red
mark (2) on the door lock button
will not be visible.
To open a door, pull the door han- dle (3) outward. If the inner door handle of either
the driver door or passenger door
is pulled when the door lock button
is in the lock position, the button is
unlocked and the door will open.
The doors cannot be locked if the smart key is inside the vehicle and
any of the doors are open.
Information
If a power door lock ever fails to func-
tion while you are in the vehicle try
one or more of the following tech-
niques to exit:
• Operate the door unlock feature repeatedly (both electronic and
manual) while simultaneously
pulling on the door handle.
• Operate the other door locks and handles, front and rear.
• Lower a front window and use the mechanical key to unlock the door
from outside.
Information
If the 12V auxiliary battery is low and
you cannot use the smart key to lock
your vehicle, you may have to lock the
doors manually. You can lock the dri-
ver's door with the mechanical key in
the key FOB and lock the other doors
with the lock button on the inside door
handle.

Electric PowerSteering (EPS)Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When the POWER button is in the
ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds and then goes off.
When there is a malfunction with the EPS.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Charging SystemWarning Light(for 12-volt battery)
This warning light illuminates:
If the 12V auxiliary battery voltage
is low, or if a system malfunction
related to the low voltage DC
charging system (LDC) occurs.
If this warning light comes on while driving, or if this warning light
comes on and off intermittently
with ignition cycle, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
If the vehicle is driven continuously
with the Charging System Warning
Light on, the 12V auxiliary battery
may discharge. If this occurs, vehi-
cle operation may be limited.
Low Tire PressureWarning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When the POWER button is in the
ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds and then goes off.
When one or more of your tires are significantly underinflated (The
location of each underinflated tire
is displayed on the LCD display).
For more details, refer to "Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)" in chapter 6.

What to do in an emergency
If you Have a Flat Tire While
Driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
Take your foot off the acceleratorpedal and let the vehicle slow down
while driving straight ahead. Do not
apply the brakes immediately to
slow down the vehicle, but use the
paddle shifter (left side lever) to
increase regenerative braking con-
trol. Do not attempt to pull off the
road suddenly as this may cause
loss of vehicle control. When the
vehicle has slowed to such a speed
that it is safe to do so, brake care-
fully and pull off the road. Drive off
the road as far as possible and park
on firm, level ground. If you are on
a divided highway, do not park in
the median area between the two
traffic lanes.
When the vehicle is stopped, press the hazard warning flasher button,
shift to P(Park), apply the parking
brake, and place the POWER but-
ton in the OFF position. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
Follow the instructions provided later in this chapter.
Confirm the EV Battery SOC
Level
Confirm that the vehicle is in P
(Park). The vehicle can only be
started when the gear is in P
(Park).
Confirm the State of Charge (SOC) percentage level on the charge
gauge or in the head unit display.
Inspect the 12V auxiliary battery connections in the EV motor com-
partment to make sure they are
clean and tight.
Turn on the headlamps. If the headlamps are not illuminating
properly, the 12V auxiliary battery
voltage may be low.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it. This could cause damage to
your vehicle. See instructions for
"Jump Starting" provided in this
chapter.

*
1: When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory. An improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or vehicle damage.
*
2: For your convenience, it can be replaced prior to it's interval when you do maintenance of other items.

Electric Vehicles (EVs)
Battery electric vehicles (BEVs or
EVs) are driven using a battery and
an electric motor. While general vehi-
cles use an internal combustion
engine and gasoline as fuel, electric
vehicles use electrical energy that is
charged inside the high voltage bat-
tery. As a result, electric vehicles are
eco-friendly in that they do not
require fuel and do not emit exhaust
gases.
Characteristics of Electric
Vehicles (EVs)
1. EVs are using the electrical ener-gy that is charged inside the high
voltage battery. In terms of air pol-
lution and greenhouse gas emis-
sions, EVs are cleaner than con-
ventional vehicles.
2. A 150 kW electric drive motor mated to a reduction gearbox
comprises the vehicle drivetrain.
This electric-only powertrain sig-
nificantly reduces engine room
noise and vibration while driving.
3. When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking is
utilized to charge the high voltage
battery. This helps to minimize
energy loss and increases vehicle
range.
4. When the state of charge (SOC) of the battery is low, the EV battery
can be recharged through several
different charging methods. Refer
to “Charging Information" later in
this section.
Information
What does regenerative braking do?
Regenerative braking uses the electric
motor when decelerating or braking
which converts vehicle motion (kinetic
energy) to electrical energy to charge
the high voltage battery.
Battery Information
The vehicle is composed of a highvoltage 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 or the high
voltage battery is being charged.
