Trailer stability assist system continuous-
ly analyzes the vehicle and trailer insta-
bility. When the Trailer stability assist sys-
tem detects some sway, the brakes are
applied automatically to stabilize the
vehicle on the front wheel. However, if it
is not enough to stabilize, the brakes areapplied on all wheels automatically and
engine power is properly reduced. When
the vehicle is stable from swaying, trailer
stability assist system does not operate. Good braking practices
 Check to be sure the parking brake is
not engaged and that the parking
brake indicator light is out before driv-
ing away.
 Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet
when the vehicle is washed. Wet
brakes can be dangerous! Your vehicle
will not stop as quickly if the brakes are
wet. Wet brakes may cause the vehicle
to pull to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns to
normal, taking care to keep the vehicle
under control at all times. If the braking
action does not return to normal, stop
as soon as it is safe to do so and we
recommend that you call an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
 Don't coast down hills with the vehicle out of gear. This is extremely haz-
ardous. Keep the vehicle in gear at all
times, use the brakes to slow down,
then shift to a lower gear so that
engine braking will help you maintain a
safe speed.
WARNING
 Whenever you leave or park your vehicle, always set the parking
brake as far as possible and fully
engage the vehicle's transaxle
into the P (Park) position. If the
parking brake is not fully
engaged, the vehicle may move
inadvertently and injure yourself
and others.
 All vehicles should always have the parking brake fully engaged
when parking to avoid inadver-
tent movement of the vehicle
which can injure occupants orpedestrians.

1. Cruise indicator
2. Cruise set indicator
The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con-stant speed without pressing the acceler-ator pedal. This system is designed to function
above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
✽✽
NOTICE
During normal cruise control operation,
when the SET switch is activated or
reactivated after applying the brakes,
the cruise control will energize after
approximately 3 seconds. This delay isnormal.
✽
✽ NOTICE
To activate cruise control, depress the
brake pedal at least once after turningthe ignition switch to the ON position or
starting the engine. This is to check ifthe brake switch which is important
part to cancel cruise control is in normalcondition.
CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
 If the cruise control is left on, (CRUISE indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminated),
the cruise control can be
switched on accidentally. Keep
the cruise control system off
(CRUISE indicator light OFF)
when the cruise control is not in
use, to avoid inadvertently set-ting a speed.
 Use the cruise control system only when traveling on open
highways in good weather.
 Do not use the cruise control when it may not be safe to keep
the vehicle at a constant speed,
for instance, driving in heavy or
varying traffic, or on slippery
(rainy, icy or snow-covered) or
winding roads or over 6% up-hill
or down-hill roads.
 Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever
using the cruise control system.
 Be careful when driving downhill using the cruise control system,
which may increase the vehiclespeed.CAUTION
During cruise-speed driving of a
manual transaxle vehicle, do notshift into neutral without depress-ing the clutch pedal, since the
engine will be overrevved. If thishappens, depress the clutch pedalor release the cruise control ON- OFF switch.

Active ECO operation
Active ECO helps improve fuel efficiency
by controlling the engine, transaxle and
air conditioner. But fuel-efficiency can be
changed by the driver's driving habits
and road conditions.
 When the Active ECO button is
pressed the ECO indicator (green) will
illuminate to show that the Active ECO
is operating.
 When the Active ECO is activated, it does not turn off even though the
engine is restarted again. To turn off
the system, press the active ECO but-ton again.
 If Active ECO is turned off, it will return to the ECO mode. When Active ECO is activated:
 Vehicle noise may become loud.
 Vehicle speed may drop.
 The air conditioner performance may
decline. Limitation of Active ECO opera- tion :
If the following conditions occur while
Active ECO is operating, the system
operation is limited even though there is
no change in the ECO indicator.
 When the coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until engine
performance becomes normal.
 When driving up a hill: The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because the
engine torque is restricted.
 When using sports mode: The system will be limited according tothe shift location.

Highway driving
Tires:
Adjust the tire inflation pressures to
specification. Low tire inflation pressures
will result in overheating and possible
failure of the tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires which
may result in reduced traction or tire fail-
ure.
✽✽
NOTICE
Never exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure shown on the tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil:
High speed travel consumes more fuel
than urban motoring. Do not forget to
check both engine coolant and engineoil.
Drive belt:
A loose or damaged drive belt may result
in overheating of the engine.

WARNING
 Underinflated or overinflated tires can cause poor handling,
loss of vehicle control, and sud-den tire failure leading to acci-
dents, injuries, and even death.
Always check the tires for proper
inflation before driving. For prop-
er tire pressures, refer to section
8, “Tires and wheels”.
 Driving on tires with no or insuffi- cient tread is dangerous. Worn-out tires can result in loss of
vehicle control, collisions, injury,
and even death. Worn-out tiresshould be replaced as soon as
possible and should never be
used for driving. Always check
the tire tread before driving your
vehicle. For further information
and tread limits, refer to section
7, “Tires and wheels”.

If you do decide to pull a trailer
Here are some important points if you
decide to pull a trailer:
 Consider using a sway control. You can
ask a hitch dealer about sway control.
 Do not do any towing with your car dur- ing its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in
order to allow the engine to properly
break in. Failure to heed this caution
may result in serious engine or
transaxle damage.
 When towing a trailer, we recommend that you consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer on additional require-
ments such as a towing kit, etc.
 Always drive your vehicle at a moder- ate speed (less than 100 km/h (60mph)).
 On a long uphill grade, do not exceed 70 km/h (45 mph) or the posted towing
speed limit, whichever is lower.

What to do in an emergency
IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY WHILE DRIVING
If the engine stalls at a crossroad
or crossing
 If the engine stalls at a crossroad orcrossing, set the shift lever in the N
(Neutral) position and then push the
vehicle to a safe place.
 If your vehicle has a manual transaxle not equipped with a ignition lock
switch, the vehicle can move forward
by shifting to the 2(second) or 3(third)
gear and then turning the starter with-out depressing the clutch pedal. If you have a flat tire while driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal
and let the vehicle 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
control. When the vehicle 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 divided highway, do not park
in the median area between the two
traffic lanes.
2. When the vehicle is stopped, turn on your emergency hazard flashers, set
the parking brake and put the transaxle
in P (automatic transaxle) or reverse
(manual transaxle).
3. Have all passengers get out of the vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the
side of the vehicle that is away from
traffic.
4. When changing a flat tire, follow the instruction provided later in this sec-tion. If engine stalls while driving
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping
a straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try to start the engine again. If your vehicle will not start, we recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Jump starting procedure
1. Make sure the booster battery is 12-volt
and that its negative terminal is ground- ed. 2. If the booster battery is in another vehi-
cle, do not allow the vehicles to touch.
3. Turn off all unnecessary electrical
loads.
4. Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence shown in the illustration. First
connect one end of a jumper cable to
the positive terminal of the discharged
battery (1), then connect the other end
to the positive terminal on the booster
battery (2). Proceed to connect one end
of the other jumper cable to the nega-
tive terminal of the booster battery (3),
then the other end to a solid, stationary,
metallic point (for example, the engine
lifting bracket) away from the battery
(4). Do not connect it to or near any part
that moves when the engine is cranked.
Do not allow the jumper cables to con-
tact anything except the correct battery
terminals or the correct ground. Do not
lean over the battery when making con-
nections.
5. Start the engine of the vehicle with the booster battery and let it run at 2,000
rpm, then start the engine of the vehi-
cle with the discharged battery.
If the cause of your battery discharging is
not apparent, we recommend that thesystem be checked by an authorizedHYUNDAI dealer.
Push-starting
Your manual transaxle-equipped vehicle
should not be push-started because itmight damage the emission control sys-
tem. Vehicles equipped with automatic
transaxle cannot be push-started. Follow
the directions in this section for jump-
starting.
WARNING
Never tow a vehicle to start it
because the sudden surge forward
when the engine starts could cause
a collision with the tow vehicle.
CAUTION - Battery cables
Do not connect the jumper cable
from the negative terminal of the booster battery to the negative ter-minal of the discharged battery. This
can cause the discharged battery tooverheat and crack, releasing bat- tery acid.
CAUTION -AGM battery (if equipped)
 Absorbent Glass Matt (AGM) bat-
teries are maintenance-free andwe recommend that the system
be serviced by an authorizedHYUNDAI dealer. For chargingyour AGM battery, use only fully
automatic battery chargers that are specially developed for AGMbatteries.
 When replacing the AGM battery, we recommend that you use parts
for replacement from an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer.
 Do not open or remove the cap on top of the battery. This may cause
leaks of internal electrolyte thatcould result in severe injury.
 If the AGM battery is reconnected or replaced, ISG function will notoperate immediately.
If you want to use the ISG func-tion, the battery sensor needs tobe calibrated for approximately 4 hours with the ignition off.
