Starting the engine 1.Carry the smart key or leave it
inside the vehicle.
2.Make sure the parking brake is firmly applied.
3.Place the transaxle shift lever in P (Park). Depress the brake pedal fully.
You can also start the engine when
the shift lever is in the N (Neutral) position.
4.Press the engine start/stop button.
It should be started without depress-
ing the accelerator.
5.Do not wait for the engine to warm up whilst the vehicle remains sta-
tionary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and
decelerating should be avoided.) Even if the smart key is in the vehi-
cle, if it is far away from you, the
engine may not start.
When the engine start/stop button is in the ACC position or above, if
any door is opened, the system
checks for the smart key. If the
smart key is not in the vehicle, the
“ ” indicator and a message
“Key not in the vehicle” will appear
on the instrument cluster and LCD
display. And if all doors are closed,
the chime will sound for 5 seconds.
The indicator or warning will turn off
while the vehicle is moving. Always
have the smart key with you.
WARNING
Always wear appropriate shoes when operating your
vehicle. Unsuitable shoes (high
heels, ski boots,etc.) may inter-
fere with your ability to use the
brake, accelerator pedal.
Do not start the vehicle with the accelerator pedal
depressed. The vehicle can
move and lead to an accident.
Wait until the engine rpm is nor- mal. The vehicle may suddenly
move if the brake padel isreleased when the rpm is high.
WARNING
The engine will start, only when
the smart key is in the vehicle.
Never allow children or any per- son who is unfamiliar with the
vehicle touch the engine
start/stop button or related parts.

D (Drive)
This is the normal forward driving
position. The transmission will auto-matically shift through a 8-gear
sequence, providing the best fuel
economy and power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or climbing grades,
depress the accelerator fully, at which
time the transmission will automati-
cally downshift to the lower gear.
✽✽NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into D (Drive).
Manual mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or
in motion, sports mode is selected by
pushing the shift lever from the D
(Drive) position into the manual gate.
To return to D (Drive) range opera-
tion, push the shift lever back into the
main gate.
In manual mode, moving the shift
lever backwards and forwards will
allow you to make gearshifts rapidly.
Up (+) : Push the lever forward once to shift up one gear.
Down (-) : Pull the lever backwards
once to shift down one gear.

CAUTION
With the exception of parking
in neutral gear, always park thevehicle in [P] (Park) for safetyand engage the parking brake.
Before parking in [N] (Neutral) gear, first make sure the park-ing ground is level and flat. Do not park in [N] gear on anyslopes or gradients.
If parked and left in [N], thevehicle may move and causeserious damage and injury.
After the ignition switch has been turned off, the electronicparking brake cannot be dis-engaged.
For EPB (Electronic Parking Brake) equipped vehicles with[AUTO HOLD] function used while driving, if the ignition but-ton has been turned [OFF], theelectronic parking brake will be engaged automatically.Therefore, [AUTO HOLD] func-tion should be turned off before the ignition button is turned off.

WARNING
If your vehicle becomes stuck in
snow, mud, sand, etc., then you
may attempt to rock the vehicle
free by moving it forward and
backward. Do not attempt this
procedure if people or objects
are anywhere near the vehicle.
During the rocking operation the
vehicle may suddenly move for-
ward or backward as it becomes
unstuck, causing injury or dam-
age to nearby people or objects.

DRIVE MODE / SNOW MODEThe driver can personalize the
DRIVE MODE based on vehicle con-
trol preference and driving style.
Below is a list of the message which
will appear on the upper AVN screen.
NORMAL MODE:
Drive mode for smooth and high ride
quality.
ECO (ACTIVE ECO) MODE:
Drive mode optimized for economic
driving.
SPORT MODE:
Drive mode for aggressive driving
and solid ride quality.
SMART MODE:
Depending on the driver's driving style (Economic
↔Aggressive), drive
mode will automatically changeamong ECO ↔NORMAL ↔SPORT.
SNOW MODE
DRIVE MODE optimized for slippery
road surfaces. Below is a diagram of mode changeswhen pressing the DRIVE MODE
button. ❈
When selecting the NORMAL
MODE , nothing will show up on the dash-board
If you select the SNOW MODE, the SNOW MODE will operate regardless
of previously selected mode (NOR-
MAL / ECO / SPORT / SMART).
Press the SNOW MODE button one
more time to return back to the previ-ously selected DRIVE MODE (NOR-
MAL / ECO / SPORT / SMART).
If you turn off the engine of the vehicle in any of the NORMAL /
ECO / SMART MODE, and restart
the engine, DRIVE MODE will
memorize and return to the previ-
ous drive mode setting. (With

light will illuminate. ECO MODE Driving:
The vehicle engine and transmission
will operate in fuel economy oriented
mode.
ACTIVE ECO MODE system will
restrain fuel economy worsening
driving habits, such as suddenly
starts and accelerations, compare tothe NORMAL MODE.
Conditions that limit Active ECO MODE:
Below are a list of conditions in which
when in ACTIVE ECO MODE, the
indicator light will not change, but the
internal system may operate differ-
ently.
When engine coolant temperature
is low:
When temperature of the transaxle
oil is below the normal range, the
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable until the
transaxle oil heats up after vehicleignition.
When in an uphill gradient:
Since the ACTIVE ECO MODE
partially limits the engine torque,
ACTIVE ECO MODE may become
temporarily unavailable when more
torque is essential for going uphill.
When using the manual transmis- sion operation mode:
If transmission operation is
changed from automatic to manual,
vehicle will reflect it and automati-
cally stop the ACTIVE ECO MODE.

SMART MODE an intelligent driving mode and when the driving
style is economic and fuel efficient, the SMART ECO MODE will beautomatically selected. The engine and transaxle system will become more fuel efficient, but the actual fuel economy will dependon various driving factors (on uphill/ downhill, heavy revving orbraking).
If you make sudden accelerations or turns in SMART MODE, the intelligent mode will select SMART SPORT MODE. This maydecrease fuel efficiency.
