✽NOTICE
In cold and wet climates, trunk lock
and trunk mechanisms may not
work properly due to freezing condi-
tions.
Power Trunk Non-Opening or
Closing Conditions:
• The Power Trunk will not open or
close automatically, when the vehi-
cle is moving more than 3 km/h
(1.8 mph).
• The Power Trunk can be operated
when the engine is not running.
However, the Power Trunk operation
consumes large amounts of vehicle
electric power. To prevent the bat-
tery from draining, do not operate it
excessively (e.g., more than
approximately 10 times repeatedly.)
• Do not modify or repair any part of
the Power Trunk by yourself. This
must be done by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• Before jacking up the vehicle to
change a tire or repair the vehicle,
open the Power Trunk. Do not oper-
ate the Power Trunk when the vehi-
cle is raised or this could cause the
Power Trunk to operate improperly.
• If there are obstacles such as snow
on the Power Trunk, it may not open
automatically. After removing the
obstacle, try to open it again.
Automatic stop and reverse
If, during power opening or closing,
the trunk is blocked by an object or
part of someone’s body, the power
trunk will detect the resistance and it
will stop movement or move to the
full open position to allow the object
to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak
such as from an object that is thin or
soft, or the trunk is near the latched
position, the automatic stop and
reversal may not detect the resist-
ance and the closing operation will
continue. Also, if the Power Trunk is
forced by a strong impact, the auto-
matic stop and reversal may operate.
•Do not close or open the Power
Trunk manually. This may
cause damage to the Power
Trunk. If it is necessary to close
or open the Power Trunk manu-
ally when the battery is drained
or disconnected, do not apply
excessive force.
•Do not leave the Power Trunk
open for a long period of time.
This may drain the battery.
•To prevent damage to the
trunk lift cylinders and the
attached hardware, always
close the trunk before driving.

If the automatic stop and reverse fea-
ture operates more than twice during
one opening or closing operation, the
Power Trunk may stop at that posi-
tion. If this occurs, close the trunk
manually and operate the trunk auto-
matically again.
To reset the power trunk
If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, or if the related fuse
has been replaced or disconnected,
reset the Power Trunk as follows:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Close the trunk manually.
If the Power Trunk doesn't work prop-
erly after performing the above pro-
cedure, have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Trunk lid control button
When the trunk lid control button is
UNLOCK (button not pressed), the
power trunk can be controlled with
the power trunk main control button,
power trunk open, close button, and
the smart key.
When this trunk lid control button is
LOCK (button pressed), the power
trunk can be controlled using the
mechanical key of the smart key only. To prevent serious injury and
damage take the following pre-
cautions when operating the
power trunk:
- Keep all faces, hands, arms,
body parts and other objects
away from the path of the
power trunk.
- Do not intentionally place any
body parts or objects in the
path of the power trunk to
make sure the automatic stop
and reversal operates.
- Do not allow children to play
with the power trunk.

Even though the trunk lid control but-
ton is LOCK (button pressed), the
trunk will still be propelled upward by
mechanical force if the trunk is man-
ually opened more than 10 degrees
beyond the fully closed position. In
addition, if the trunk is manually
closed to the secondary latch posi-
tion, the trunk will be electrically
moved to the fully latched position.Emergency trunk safety
release
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Emergency Trunk Safety Release
lever located inside the trunk. When
someone is inadvertently locked in
the trunk, the trunk can be opened by
moving the lever in the direction of the
arrow and pushing the trunk open.
•Always keep the Trunk Lid
Control Button in the LOCK
(button pressed) position when
not in use. Serious injury or
death can result from uninten-
tional operation by a child.
•Make sure heads, other body
parts or other obstacles are
safely out of the way before
operating the power trunk.
WARNING
Close the trunk, and keep the
trunk lid control button in the
LOCK (button pressed) position
before washing the vehicle in an
automatic car wash.

•You and your passengers
must be aware of the location
of the Emergency Trunk
Safety Release lever in this
vehicle and how to open the
trunk in case you are acciden-
tally locked in the trunk.
•NEVER allow anyone to occu-
py the trunk of the vehicle at
any time. If the trunk is par-
tially or totally latched and the
person is unable to get out,
serious injury or death could
occur due to lack of ventila-
tion, exhaust fumes and rapid
heat build-up, or because of
exposure to cold weather con-
ditions. The trunk is also a
highly dangerous location in
the event of a crash because it
is not a protected occupant
space but is a part of the vehi-
cle’s crush zone.

•Your vehicle should be kept
locked and the Smart Key
should be kept out of the reach
of children. Parents should
teach their children about the
dangers of playing in trunks.
•Use the release lever for
emergencies only.
