Limitations of the System
LKA system may operate prematurely
even if the vehicle does not depart from
the intended lane, OR, LKA system may
not assist your steering or warn you if the
vehicle leaves the intended lane under
the following circumstances:
When the lane and road conditions are
poor
• It is difficult to distinguish the lane
marking from the road surface or the
lane marking is faded or not clearly
marked.
• It is difficult to distinguish the color of
the lane marker from the road.
• There are markings on the road
surface that look like a lane marker
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
• The lane marker is indistinct or
damaged.
• The lane marker is merged or divided
(e.g. tollgate).
• The lane number increases or
decreases or the lane marker are
crossing complicatedly.
• There are more than two lane markers
on the road in front of you. •
The lane marker is very thick or thin.
• The lane is very wide or narrow.
• The lane ahead is not visible due
to rain, snow, water on the road,
damaged or stained road surface, or
other factors.
• The shadow is on the lane marker by
a median strip, trees, guardrail, noise
barriers, etc.
• The lane markers are complicated or a
structure substitutes for the lines such
as a construction area.
• There are crosswalk signs or other
symbols on the road.
• The lane marker in a tunnel is stained
with oil, etc.
• The lane suddenly disappears such as
at the intersection.

• The shadow is on the lane marker by

barriers, etc.
• The lane markers are complicated or a

• There are crosswalk signs or other
symbols on the road.
• The lane marker in a tunnel is stained
with oil, etc.
• The lane suddenly disappears such as
at the intersection.
• Driving the shared lane usage (bicycle
lane, pedestrians lane, etc.)
When external condition is intervened
• The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel, or when passing
under a bridge.
• The brightness outside is too low such
as when the headlamps are not on at
night or the vehicle is going through
a tunnel.
• There is a boundary structure in the
roadway such as a concrete barrier,
guardrail and reflector post that is
inadvertently being detected by the
camera.
• When light coming from a street light
or an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a puddle in
the road.
• The field of view in front is obstructed
by sun glare. •
There is not enough distance between
you and the vehicle in front to be
able to detect the lane marker or the
vehicle ahead is driving on the lane
marker.
• Driving on a steep grade, over a hill, or
when driving on a curved road.
• The adverse road conditions cause
excessive vehicle vibrations while
driving.
• The surrounding of the inside rear
view mirror temperature is high due to
direct sunlight, etc.
• The sensor recognition changes
suddenly when passing over a speed
bump or driving on a steep up/down
or right/left grade
When front visibility is poor
• The windshield or the camera lens is
blocked with dirt or debris.
• The windshield glass is fogged up; a
clear view of the road is obstructed.
• Placing objects on the dashboard, etc.
• The sensor cannot detect the lane
because of fog, heavy rain or snow.

Driving in Flooded Areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel hub.
Drive through any water slowly. Allow
adequate stopping distance because
brake performance may be reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them several
times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
Highway Driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or damage
the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged tires,
which may reduce traction or adversely
affect vehicle handling. This could lead
to sudden tire failure that may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as specified
on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil
Driving at higher speeds on the highway
consumes more fuel and is less efficient
than driving at a slower, more moderate
speed. Maintain a moderate speed in
order to conserve fuel when driving on
the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine coolant
level and the engine oil before driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
overheat the engine.
While Driving

Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See chapter 8
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the
battery and cables as described in
chapter 8. The level of charge in your
battery can be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer or a service station.
Check spark plugs and ignition
system
Inspect your spark plugs as described in
chapter 8 and replace them if necessary.
Also check all ignition wiring and
components to be sure they are not
cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
Use approved window washer anti-
freeze in system
To keep the water in the window washer
system from freezing, add an approved
window washer anti-freeze solution in
accordance with instructions on the
container. Window washer anti-freeze is
available from an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and most auto parts outlets. Do
not use engine coolant or other types
of antifreeze as these may damage the
paint finish.
Do not let your parking brake freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged position.
This is most likely to happen when
there is an accumulation of snow or
ice around or near the rear brakes or
if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk
the parking brake may freeze, apply
it only temporarily while you put the
gear selector lever in P and block the
rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then
release the parking brake.
Do not let ice and snow accumulate
underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driving
in severe winter conditions where this
may happen, you should periodically
check underneath the car to be sure the
movement of the front wheels and the
steering components is not obstructed.
Don't place foreign objects
or materials in the engine
compartment
Placement of foreign object or materials
which prevent cooling of the engine, in
the engine compartment, may cause a
failure or combustion. The manufacturer
is not responsible for the damage caused
by such placement.
To keep locks from freezing
To keep the locks from freezing, squirt
an approved de-icer fluid or glycerine
into the key opening. If a lock is covered
with ice, squirt it with an approved de-
icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock
is frozen internally, you may be able to
thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle
the heated key with care to avoid injury.

WARNING
Performing maintenance work on a
vehicle can be dangerous. If you lack
sufficient knowledge and experience or
the proper tools and equipment to do
the work, have it done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
ALWAYS follow these precautions for
performing maintenance work:
• Park your vehicle on level ground,
move the shift button into the P
(Park) position, place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
• Block the tires (front and back) to
prevent the vehicle from moving.
Remove loose clothing or jewelry
that can become entangled in
moving parts.
• If you must run the engine during
maintenance, do so out doors or in
an area with plenty of ventilation.
• Keep flames, sparks, or smoking
materials away from the battery and
fuel-related parts. The following lists are vehicle checks and
inspections that should be performed
by the owner or an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer at the frequencies indicated to
help ensure safe, dependable operation
of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer as
soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance vehicle
checks are generally not covered by
warranties and you may be charged for
labor, parts and lubricants used.
Owner Maintenance Schedule
When you stop for fuel:
•
Check the engine oil level.
• Check the coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir.
• Check the windshield washer fluid
level.
• Check the for low or under-inflated
tires.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your engine
coolant level when the engine is hot.
This may result in coolant being blown
out of the opening and cause serious
burns and other injuries.
