Battery saver function
• The purpose of this feature is to
prevent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lights when
the driver removes the ignition key
(smart key : turns off the engine)
and opens the driver-side door.

when the ignition key is removed
(smart key : turns off the engine),
perform the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights OFF and ON again using the light switch
on the steering column.

If you turn the ignition switch to the
ACC or OFF position with the head-
lights ON, the headlights remain on
for about 5 minutes. However, if the

the headlights are turned off after 15
seconds.
The headlights can be turned off by

mitter (or smart key) twice or turning
the light switch to the OFF or Auto
position.
However, if you turn the light switch
to the Auto position when it is dark

turned off.
You can activate or deactivate this
feature. Refer to “User Settings” in
this section.

In this case, makesure to turn off the lamp beforegetting out of the vehicle.

your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
• When the ignition key is removed, the wiper blade sometimes may
move slightly for reducing the
deterioration of the windshield
wipers.
Auto control (if equipped)
The rain sensor located on the upper

mode when the ignition switch is ON,
the wiper will operate once to per-
