WARNING
• Never adjust the angle and height
of the steering wheel while driv-
ing. You may lose steering con-
trol and cause severe personal
injury, death or accidents.
• After adjusting, push the steering
wheel both up and down to be
certain it is locked in position.

Electric power steering
(if equipped)
Power steering uses the motor to assist
you in steering the vehicle. If the engine
is off or if the power steering system
becomes inoperative, the vehicle may
still be steered, but it will require
increased steering effort.
The motor driven power steering is con-
trolled by the power steering control unit
which senses the steering wheel torque
and vehicle speed to command the
motor.
The steering wheel becomes heavier as
the vehicle’s speed increases and
becomes lighter as the vehicle’s speed
decreases for better control of the steer-
ing wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power steer-
ing checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽NOTICE
The following symptoms may occur dur-
ing normal vehicle operation:
• The EPS warning light does not illumi-
nate.
• The steering effort is high immediately
after turning the ignition switch on.
This happens as the system performs
the EPS system diagnostics. When the
diagnostics is completed, the steering
wheel will return to its normal condi-
tion.
• A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after the ignition switch is
turned to the ON or LOCK position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
• The steering effort can suddenly
increase, if the operation of the EPS
system is stopped to prevent serious
accidents when it detects malfunction
of the EPS system by self-diagnosis.
• The steering effort increases if the
steering wheel is rotated continuously
when the vehicle is not in motion.
However, after a few minutes, it will
return to its normal conditions.

Tilt steering (if equipped)Tilt steering allows you to adjust the
steering wheel before you drive. You can
also raise it to give your legs more room
when you exit and enter the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be positioned
so that it is comfortable for you to drive,
while permitting you to see the instru-
ment panel warning lights and gauges.

Electric power steering
(EPS) system warning light
(if equipped)
This indicator light illuminates after the
ignition key is turned to the ON position
and then it will go off when the engine
starts.

an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
D150349APB
Acoustic warning chime (if equipped)
The acoustic warning chime will sound if
the driver's door is opened while the tail
lights are on. This is to prevent you from
discharging the vehicle battery. The
chime sounds until the tail lights are
turned off.
D150351APB
Door open drive warning chime
(if equipped)
The door open drive warning chime will
sound if any door (or tailgate) is opened
while driving over 9km/h. The warning
chime will sound for approximately 6 sec-
onds and then turn off for approximately
20 seconds 3 times. This is to prevent
you from driving with the door open.
Multidisplay
D150206APB
Tripmeter/Trip computer (if equipped)
The trip computer is a microcomputer-
controlled driver information system that
displays information related to driving,
such as tripmeter, distance to empty,
average fuel consumption, instant fuel
consumption and driving time on the dis-
play when the ignition switch is in ACC or
ON position. All stored driving informa-
tion (distance to empty and instant fuel
consumption) will reset if the battery is
disconnected.
