Luggage Net Holder (if equipped)
To keep items from shifting in the lug-
gage compartment, you can use the
4 holders located in the luggage
board to attach the luggage net.
Make sure the luggage net is securely
attached to the holders in the luggage
board. The following must be observed
when installing ANY floor mat
to the vehicle.
Ensure that the floor mats are
securely attached to the vehi-
cle's floor mat anchor(s)
before driving the vehicle.
Do not use ANY floor mat that
cannot be firmly attached to
the vehicle's floor mat anchors.
Do not stack floor mats on top
of one another (e.g. all-weath-
er rubber mat on top of a car-
peted floor mat). Only a single
floor mat should be installed
in each position.
IMPORTANT - Your vehicle was
manufactured with driver’s side
floor mat anchors that are
designed to securely hold the
floor mat in place. To avoid any
interference with pedal opera-
tion, HYUNDAI recommends
that the HYUNDAI floor mat
designed for use in your vehicle
be installed.
WARNING
Avoid eye injury. DO NOT over-
stretch the luggage net. ALWAYS
keep your face and body out of
the luggage net's recoil path. DO
NOT use the luggage net when
the strap has visible signs of
wear or damage.
Use the luggage net to keep only
light items from shifting in the
luggage compartment.

and the doors are securely closed
and locked.
Adjust the position of the seat and
steering wheel.
Adjust the inside and outside
rearview mirrors.
Verify all the lights work.
Fasten your seatbelt. Check that all

Check that any items you are car-
rying are stored properly or fas-
tened down securely. CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65

Driving your vehicle
To prevent damage to the vehicle:
If the " " indicator turns off
while you are in motion, do not
attempt to shift to the P (Park)
position.
To prevent damage to the vehicle:
When the stop lamp fuse is blown,
you cannot normally start the
vehicle. Replace the fuse with a
new one. If you are not able to
replace the fuse, you can start the
vehicle by pressing and holding
the POWER button for 10 seconds
with the POWER button in the ACC
position.
Do not press the POWER button
for more than 10 seconds except
when the stop lamp fuse is blown.
For your safety always depress
the brake pedal before starting the
vehicle.
Information
If the smart key battery is weak or the
smart key does not work correctly,
you can start the vehicle by pressing
the POWER button with the smart
key in the direction of the picture
above.
Turning Off the Vehicle
1. Depress the brake pedal fully.
2. Shift to P (Park).
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Press the POWER button to turn
the vehicle off.
5. Make sure the " " indicator
light on the instrument cluster is
turned off.
i
NOTICE
NOTICE
OFE058004
If the " " indicator light on
the instrument cluster is still
on, the vehicle is not turned off
and can move when the gear is
in any position except P (Park).
CAUTION

Driving your vehicle
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 an
accident.
Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Always apply the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle. Do not
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. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing 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.
WARNING
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 highway
speeds.
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.

5-18
Power Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
If the power is not supplied such as
battery discharge, the power assist
for the brakes will not work. You can
still stop your vehicle by applying
greater force to the brake pedal than
typical. The stopping distance, how-
ever, will be longer than with power
brakes.
Do not pump the brake pedal when
the power assist has been interrupt-
ed.

Driving your vehicle
Take the following precautions:
Do not drive with your foot
resting on the brake pedal.
This will create abnormal high
brake temperatures, exces-
sive brake lining and pad
wear, and increased stopping
distances.
When descending down a
long or steep hill, use the pad-
dle shifter (left side lever) to
increase regenerative braking
control in order to control
your speed without using the
brake pedal excessively.
Applying the brakes continu-
ously will cause the brakes to
overheat and could result in a
temporary loss of braking per-
formance.
Wet brakes may impair the
vehicle's ability to safely slow
down; the vehicle may also
pull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will indicate
whether they have been
affected in this way. Always
test your brakes in this fash-
ion after driving through deep
water. To dry the brakes, light-
ly tap the brake pedal to heat
up the brakes while maintain-
ing a safe forward speed until
brake performance returns to
normal. Avoid driving at high
speeds until the brakes func-
tion correctly.WARNING

Do not continue depressing the
brake pedal if the "
"indica-
tor is OFF. The battery may be
discharged.
Noise and vibration generated
during braking is normal.
Under normal operation, electric
brake pump noise and motor
vibration may occur temporarily
in below cases.
- When the pedal is depressed
suddenly.
- When the pedal is repeatedly
depressed in short intervals.
- When the ABS function is acti-
vated while braking.
Disc Brake Wear Indicator
When your brake pads are worn and
new pads are required, you will hear
a high pitched warning sound from
your front or rear brakes. You may
hear this sound come and go or it
may occur whenever you depress
the brake pedal.
Note that some driving conditions or
climates may cause a brake squeal
when you first apply (or lightly apply)
the brakes. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem with your
brakes.
To avoid costly brake repairs, do
not continue to drive with worn
brake pads.
Information
Always replace brake pads as com-
plete front or rear axle sets.
Electronic Parking Brake
(EPB)
Applying the parking brake
To apply the EPB (Electronic
Parking Brake):
1. Depress the brake pedal.
2. Pull the EPB switch upwards.
Make sure the Parking Brake
Warning Light comes on.

EPB malfunction indicator
This warning light illuminates if the
POWER button is changed to the ON
position and goes off in approximate-
ly 3 seconds if the system is operat-
ing normally.
If the EPB malfunction indicator
remains on, comes on while driving,
or does not come on when the
POWER button is changed to the ON
position, this indicates that the EPB
may have malfunctioned.
If this occurs, have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.The EPB malfunction indicator may
illuminate when the ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) indicator comes on
to indicate that the ESC is not work-
ing properly, but it does not indicate a
malfunction of the EPB.
If the EPB warning light is still
on, have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the parking brake warning
light does not illuminate or
blinks even though the EPB
switch was pulled up, the EPB
may not be applied.
If the parking brake warning
light blinks when the EPB warn-
ing light is on, press the switch,
then pull it up. Once more press
it back to its original position
and pull it back up. If the EPB
