An enclosed vehicle can become
extremely hot, causing death or
severe injury to unattended chil-

The doors should always be fully
closed and locked while the vehi-

The special features of hybrid
vehicle.
Hybrid vehicles sound different than
gasoline engine vehicles. When the
hybrid system operates, you may hear a
sound from the hybrid battery system
behind the rear seat. If you apply the
accelerator pedal rapidly, you may hear a
sound. when you apply the brake pedal,
you may hear a sound from the regener-
ative brake system. When the hybrid sys-
tem is turned off or on, you may hear a
sound in the engine compartment. If you
depress the brake pedal repeatedly
when the hybrid system is turned on, you
may hear a sound in the engine com-
partment. None of these sounds indicate
a problem. They are characteristics of
hybrid vehicles.
If any of following occur, it's not a unnor-
mal condition even if you may hear a
motor sound in the engine compartment.
- After turning off the hybrid system, thebrake pedal is released.
- When the hybrid system is turned off, the brake pedal is applied.
- When the driver door is opened. When the hybrid system is turned on, the
engine may run or not. In this situation,
you may feel a vibration. This does not
indicate a malfunction. If the "READY"
symbol is turned on, the hybrid system
starts. Even if the engine is off, you can
operate the vehicle.
WARNING
The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High volt-
age components like cables and
other parts may emit electromag-
netic waves. Even if the electro-
magnetic cover blocks electromag-
netic emissions, electromagnetic
waves may have an effect on elec-
tronic appliances. If you park the
vehicle for a long time, the hybrid
system will discharge. You need to
drive the vehicle several times per
month. We recommend driving at
least 1 hour or 10 miles when you
drive the vehicle. If the hybrid bat-
tery is discharged and if it is impos-
sible to jump start the vehicle con-
tact your Hyundai dealer.
WARNING
When you start the hybrid system
in the "P" transmission position,
the "READY" symbol is illuminat-
ed in the cluster. The driver can
drive the vehicle even if the
engine is stopped.
When you leave the vehicle, you should turn off the hybrid system
or shift into the "P" position. If
you depress the accelerator
pedal by mistake and the vehicle
is not in the "P" position, the
vehicle will move abruptly. This
may result in serious injury or
death.

If An Accident OccursWhen the hybrid vehicle shuts off
When the high voltage battery dis-
charged, 12-volt battery discharged, or
fuel tank is empty, the hybrid system may
not operate while driving. If the Hybrid
system is not operated, do the following;
1. Reduce the vehicle speed gradually.
Pull your vehicle off the road as safe
area.
2. Shift the transmission into "P" position.
3. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
4. Set the start button at OFF, and try to start the Hybrid system by applying the
brake pedal and pushing the start but-
ton.
5. If the Hybrid system will not operate, refer to "EMERGENCY STARTING" in
chapter 6.
When you try to jump start the vehicle,
confirm the fuel level and exact proce-
dure of jump start. For details, see the
"EMERGENCY STARING" in chapter 6.
If the fuel level is low, do not try to drive
the vehicle on battery power. The high
voltage battery may be discharged and
the Hybrid system will turn off.
WARNING
After parking the vehicle, shift the transmission into "P" position.
Turn off the hybrid system. Push
the button again to turn off.
For your safety, do not touch high voltage cables, connectors and
package modules.
Exposed cables or wires maybe visible inside or outside of the
vehicle. Never touch the wires or
cables, because an electrical
shock may occur causing injury or
death.
If a fire occurs, never use water to put out a fire. For safety, use an
extinguisher for electrical fires
with proper chemicals and evacu-
ate immediately.
If you need towing, refer to chapter 6.
WARNING
When you pull your vehicle off the
road as safe area, open the door
when the vehicle completely stops.
