2013 Hyundai Sonata turn signal

Features of your vehicle72 4The hazard warning flasher should be
used whenever you find it necessary to
stop the car in a hazardous location.
When you must make such an emer-
gency stop, always pull off the road as far
as possible.
The hazard warning lights are turned on
by pushing in the hazard switch. This
causes all turn signal lights to blink. The
hazard warning lights will operate even
though the key is not in the ignition
switch.
To turn the hazard warning lights off,
push the switch a second time.
Battery saver function  The purpose of this feature is to pre-
vent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lights when the
driver removes the ignition key (smart
key : turns off the engine) and opens
the driver-side door.
 With this feature, the parking lights will
be turned off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lights on
when the ignition key is removed
(smart key : turns off the engine), per-
form the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights OFF and ON
again using the light switch on the
steering column.
Headlamp delay (if equipped)If you turn the ignition switch to the ACC
or OFF position with the headlights ON,
the headlights (and/or tail lights) remain
on for about 20 minutes. However, if the
driver’s door is opened and closed, the
headlights are turned off after 30 sec-
onds.
The headlights can be turned off by
pressing the lock button on the transmit-
ter (or smart key) twice or turning the
light switch to the OFF or Auto position.
However, if you turn the light switch to the
Auto position when it is dark outside, the
headlights will not be turned off.
HAZARD WARNING FLASHERLIGHTING
OYF049084N
CAUTION
If the driver gets out of the vehicle
through other doors (except dri-
ver's door), the battery saver func-
tion does not operate and the head-
lamp delay does not turn off auto-
matically. Therefore, it causes the
battery to be discharged. In this
case, make sure to turn off the lamp
before getting out of the vehicle.

or slow, a bulb may be burned out or
have a poor electrical connection in the
circuit.
Front fog light (if equipped) Fog lights are used to provide improved
visibility when visibility is poor due to fog,
rain or snow etc. The fog lights will turn
on when fog light switch (1) is turned to
ON after the headlights are turned on.

CAUTION
• Do not clean the inside of the rear
window glass with a cleaner or
scraper to remove foreign
deposits as this may cause dam-
age to the antenna elements.
 Avoid adding metallic coatings
such as Ni, Cd, and so on. These
can disturb receiving AM and FM
broadcast signals.

Availability informationHD Radio

What is HD Radio
TM
technology?
The vehicle audio system (if equipped) is
able to receive standard analog FM/AM
radio broadcasting as well as digital HD
Radio
TMFM/AM broadcasting.
HD RadioTM
technology provides digital
and analog reception using existing FM
and AM broadcasting frequencies.
Currently, radio stations broadcasting an
HD Radio
TM
signal are operating in a
hybrid mode of both, analog and digital, in
order to reach both receivers. In both
modes, analog and digital, the broadcast-
ed program contents is the same(except
of multicasting, see below).
Eventually, as analog receivers are
replaced by digital ones, radio stations
may be able to turn off their analog broad-
casting and use only digital broadcasting.
MulticastingHD Radio
TMFM stations are able to broad-
cast multiple digital program streams(chan-
nels) over a single FM frequency. For
example, a HD Radio
TMFM station can run
a main channel of music and a sub chan-
nel of news(or even two different music
channels) at one frequency.
But only the program content of the main
channel is broadcasted in analog.
HD Radio
TM
signal delay
To overcome the delay that digital sys-
tems inherently produce, HD Radio
TM
technology first uses the audio signal of
the analog broadcasting when you tune
to an AM station or to the main channel
of a FM station. After that, the system will
blend from analog to digital signal.
Normally, this blending is very smooth. If
you experience a skip in program content
of several seconds, the radio station has
not implemented HD Radio
TMbroadcast-
ing correctly. This is not a problem with
your audio system.
Due to the fact that sub channels are only
broadcasting digital, blending from ana-
log to digital signal is not possible if you
tune to a sub channel. In this case play-
back of the sub channel starts after sev-
eral seconds, this is a normal function.

What to do in an emergency2 6ROAD WARNING Hazard warning flasher The hazard warning flasher serves as a
warning to other drivers to exercise
extreme caution when approaching,
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.It should be used whenever emergency
repairs are being made or when the vehi-
cle is stopped near the edge of a road-
way.
Depress the flasher switch with the igni-
tion switch in any position. The flasher
switch is located in the center console
switch panel. All turn signal lights will
flash simultaneously.
• The hazard warning flasher operates
whether your vehicle is running or not.
The turn signals do not work when the
hazard flasher is on.
Care must be taken when using the
hazard warning flasher while the vehi-
cle is being towed.
If the engine stalls at a crossroad
or crossingIf the engine stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, set the shift lever in the N
(Neutral) position and then push the vehi-
cle to a safe place.If you have a flat tire while drivingIf a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
and let the car slow down while driving
straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes
immediately or attempt to pull off the
road as this may cause a loss of con-
trol. When the car has slowed to such
a speed that it is safe to do so, brake
carefully and pull off the road. Drive off
the road as far as possible and park on
firm, level ground. If you are on a divid-
ed highway, do not park in the median
area between the two traffic lanes.IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY

ized gas that will produce flying
pieces of glass if broken.
 Always handle them carefully,
and avoid scratches and abra-
sions. If the bulbs are lit, avoid
contact with liquids. Never touch
