ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “If the engine overheats” in section 6.

Features of your vehicle
ECO GUIDE gauge
This is a gauge to let drivers know
whether the current driving condition is
economical or not. The fuel efficiency is
high in the blue zone but is low in the red
zone.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel
tank.
The fuel tank capacity is given in
section 8.The fuel gauge is supplement-
ed by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is near
empty.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
may fluctuate or the low fuel warning light
may come on earlier than usual due to
the movement of fuel in the tank.
OYFH041048NCAUTION
Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of fuel couldcause the engine to malfunction.
WARNING- Fuel gauge
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addition-
al fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
E level.

Your vehicle is equipped with a highly
efficient power train based on Hyundai's
BlueDrive technology.
BlueDrive mode is for normal, everyday
driving for smooth efficient operation.
Each time you start the vehicle, BlueDrive is activated automatically.
If needed, the driver can temporarily switch BlueDrive ON/OFF using the
steering wheel mounted button.
- BlueDrive OFF is intended for brief
periods of unusual driving, such as
steep roads or heavy loads. The cen-
ter cluster background will be Black.
- BlueDrive ON is meant for normal vehicle driving and provides maxi-
mum fuel efficiency. The instrument
center cluster will glow bright Blue. Switch back to BlueDrive ON as soon
as possible for maximum fuel efficien-
cy and to restore the BlueDrive center
display.
Your vehicle will automatically resume BlueDrive each time it is restarted.
Trip computer
The trip computer is a microcomputer
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving on
the LCD screen when the engine
start/stop button is in the ON position. If
the battery is disconnected, then all
stored driving information is reset.

If your ECO level achieves the top step,
your ECO score automatically saves 1
point.
In "vehicle setting", if you change the ani-
mation mode to “ON”, the dynamic
image will be on.
Distance to empty (mi. or km)
This mode indicates the estimated dis-
tance to empty based on the current fuel
in the fuel tank and the amount of fuel
delivered to the engine. When the
remaining distance is below 30 miles (50
km), “---” will be displayed and the dis-
tance to empty indicator will blink.
The meter’s working range is from 30 to
990 miles (50 to 990 km).
Fuel economy (if equipped)
Average fuel consumption
(MPG orl/100km)
This mode calculates the average fuel
economy from the total fuel used and the
distance since the last average economy
reset. The total fuel used is calculated
from the fuel economy input. For an
accurate calculation, drive more than
0.03 miles (50 m).
Pressing the RESET button for more than
1 second, when the average fuel econo-
my is being displayed, clears the average
fuel economy to zero (----).
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1.6 MPH
(1km/h) after being refueled with more
than 1.6 gallons (6 l), the average fuel
economy will be cleared to zero (----).

of the vehicle since the last average
speed reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
average speed keeps changing while the
engine is running.
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the average speed
is being displayed, clears the average
speed to zero (---).
Elapsed time

eled since the last driving time reset.
Even if the vehicle is not in motion, the
driving time keeps increasing while the
engine is running.
The meter’s working range is from
0:00~99:59.
Pressing the RESET button for more
than 1 second, when the driving time is
being displayed, clears the driving time to
