Automatic adjustment
(for driver’s seat) (if equipped)
The driver’s seat can be adjusted by
using the control knob located on the
outside of the seat cushion. Before
driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so as to easily control the
steering wheel, pedals and switches
on the instrument panel.
Forward and backward
1. Push the control switch forward or
backward to move the seat to the
desired position.
2. Release the switch once the seat
reaches the desired position.
WARNING
The power seat is operable with
the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the car.
CAUTION
The power seat is driven by an
electric motor. Stop operating
once the adjustment is com-
pleted. Excessive operation
may damage the electrical
equipment.
When in operation, the power
seat consumes a large amount
of electrical power. To prevent
unnecessary charging system
drain, don’t adjust the power
seat longer than necessary
while the engine is not running.
Do not operate two or more
power seat control knobs at the
same time. Doing so may result
in power seat motor or electri-
cal component malfunction.

Features of your vehicle
Electric power steering (EPS)
The power steering uses an electric
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
controlled by a power steering con-
trol unit which senses the steering
wheel torque and vehicle speed to
command the motor.
The steering becomes slightly heav-
ier as the vehicle’s speed increases
and becomes lighter as the vehicle’s
speed decreases for optimum steer-
ing control.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power
steering checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
The following may occur during
normal vehicle operation:
• The EPS warning light does not
illuminate when turning the igni-
tion to the ON position.
• The steering gets heavy immedi-
ately after turning the ignition
switch on. This happens as the sys-
tem performs the EPS system
diagnostics. When the diagnostics
are completed, the steering wheel
will return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON or
LOCK (OFF) position.
• A motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at a stop or at a low
driving speed.
• When the vehicle is stationary, if
you turn the steering wheel all the
way to the left or right repeatedly,
the steering wheel assist may tem-
porarily be reduced, not a system
malfunction. As time passes. The
steering wheel return to normal
operation.
(Continued)(Continued)
• When you operate the steering
wheel in very low temperatures,
system noise may occur. When the
temperature rises, the noise will dis-
appear. This is a normal condition.
• When the charging system warn-
ing light comes on or the system
voltage is low, the steering wheel
assist may be reduced.

✽
✽
NOTICE
If the Electric Power Steering sys-
tem does not operate normally, EPS
assist will stop to prevent accidents
and the EPS warning light on the
cluster will illuminate or blink. Take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Tilt and telescope steering
Tilt steering allows you to adjust the
steering wheel before you drive. You
can also raise it to give your body
more room when you exit and enter
the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be posi-
tioned so that it is comfortable for
you to drive, while permitting you to
see the instrument panel warning
lights and gauges.
To change the steering wheel angle
and height:
1. Pull down the lock-release lever
(1).
2. Adjust the steering wheel to the
desired angle (2) and height (3).
3. Pull up the lock-release lever to
lock the steering wheel in place.
OGD041030
WARNING
Never adjust the angle of the
steering wheel while driving.
You may lose steering control
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.

ing effort will change automat-
ically to the selected mode.
Be careful when changing the
steering mode while driving.
If there is a malfunction of the
electric power steering, the
FLEX STEER will not function.

above 257±4.5°F (125±2.5°C).
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “Overheating” in sec-
tion 6.
