WARNING
Never leave children or animals
unattended in your vehicle.
Children or animals might operate
the power sliding door or power
tailgate that could result in injury to
themselves or others or damage to
the vehicle.

Features of your vehicle18 3✽
✽
NOTICE• The power sliding door and power
tailgate can be operated when the
engine is not running. However the
power operation consumes large
amounts of vehicle electric power. To
prevent the battery from being dis-
charged, do not operate them exces-
sively e.g.: more than approximately
10 times repeatedly.
• To prevent the battery from being dis-
charged, do not leave the power slid-
ing door and power tailgate in the
open position for a long lime.
• Do not apply excessive force while
operating the power sliding door or
power tailgate. This could cause dam-
age to the power sliding door or power
tailgate.
• Do not modify or repair any part of
the power sliding door or power tail-
gate by yourself. This must be done by
an authorized Hyundai dealer.
• When jacking up the vehicle to
change a tire or repair the vehicle, do
not operate the power sliding door or
power tailgate. This could damage the
power sliding door or power tailgate.
Automatic stop and reversalIf the path of the power sliding door or
tailgate is blocked during operation, the
power sliding door and power tailgate will
detect the resistance, a chime will sound
3 times, and the door or tailgate will stop
or move to the full open position to allow
the path to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak (such
as an object that is thin or soft) or the
door is in a near latched position, the
automatic stop and reversal feature may
not detect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the power
sliding door or power tailgate is forced by
a strong impact, the automatic stop and
reversal feature may operate.
If the automatic stop and reversal feature
operates continuously more than twice
during one opening or closing operation,
the power sliding door or power tailgate
may stop at that position. At this time,
close the doors manually and operate
the door automatically again.
