Malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) (check engine light)
This indicator light is part of the Engine
Control System which monitors various
emission control system components. If
this light illuminates while driving, it indi-
cates that a potential problem has been
detected somewhere in the emissioncontrol system. This light will also illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, and will go out in a few seconds
after the engine is started. If it illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when
the ignition key is turned to the ON posi-
tion, we recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Generally, your vehicle will continue to be
drivable, but we recommend that the sys-
tem be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION - Diesel engine
(if equipped with DPF)
When the malfunction indicator light is blinks, it may stop blinking
after driving the vehicle at more than 60km/h (37 mph) or at morethan second gear with 1500 ~ 2000engine rpm for a certain time (for
about 25 minutes).
If the malfunction indicator lightcontinues to blink in spite of the procedure, we recommend that the
system be checked by an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer.
If you continue to drive with themalfunction indicator light blinking
for a long time, the DPF system canbe damaged and fuel consumption can be worsen.
CAUTION
Prolonged driving with the EmissionControl System Malfunction
Indicator Light illuminated maycause damage to the emission con- trol systems which could effect dri-vability and/or fuel economy.
CAUTION - Gasoline engine
If the Emission Control SystemMalfunction Indicator Light illumi-
nates, potential catalytic converter damage is possible which couldresult in loss of engine power. Werecommend that the system be
inspected by an authorizedHYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION - Diesel engine
If the Emission Control SystemMalfunction Indicator Light blinks,
some error related to the injection quantity adjustment occurs whichcould result in loss of engine power, combustion noise and poor
emission. We recommend that thesystem be inspected by an author-ized HYUNDAI dealer.

onds. The DBC indicator will illuminate when
the DBC button is pressed and the sys-tem is on.
When driving down a steep hill at a speed under 35 km/h (22 mph), the DBC
will operate and the DBC indicator will
blink to indicate the DBC is operating.
If the red indicator illuminates, the DBC
system may have malfunctioned. We rec-
ommend that the system be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
KEY OUT indicator (if equipped)
When the ENGINE START/STOP button
is in the ACC or ON position, if any door

Glow indicator (Dieselengine)
The indicator light illuminates when the
ignition switch is placed at the ON posi-
tion. The engine can be started after the
preheat indicator light goes off. The illu-
minating time varies with the water tem-
perature, air temperature and batterycondition.
✽✽ NOTICE
If the engine was not started within 10
seconds after the preheating is complet-
ed, turn the ignition key once more tothe LOCK position during 10 seconds,
and then to the ON position, in order to
preheat again.

This warning light illuminates for 3 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is set to the
ON position and then it will go out. If it
lights up while the engine is running, it
indicates that water has accumulated
inside the fuel filter. If this happens,
remove the water from the fuel filter. For
more Information, refer to “Fuel filter” insection 7.

dealer.
CAUTION
When the fuel filter warning light is
illuminated, engine power (vehiclespeed & idle speed) may decrease. If you keep driving with the warning
light on, you can damage your vehi- cle's engine parts and injection sys-tem of the Common Rail. If this occurs, we recommend that thesystem be checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.

Non-operational conditions
The rear parking assist system may not
operate properly when:
1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It willoperate normally when the moisture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign matter, such as snow or water, or the
sensor cover is blocked. (It will operate
normally when the material is removed
or the sensor is no longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces. (unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gradi-ent)
4. Objects generating excessive noise (vehicle horns, loud motorcycle
engines, or truck air brakes) are within
range of the sensor.
5. Heavy rain or water spray exists.
6. Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are within range of the sensor.
7. The sensor is covered with snow.
8. Trailer towing.
9. The place light the fluorescent lamp. The detecting range may decrease when:
1. The sensor is stained with foreign mat-
ter such as snow or water. (The sens-
ing range will return to normal when
removed.)
2. Outside air temperature is extremely hot or cold.
The following objects may not be recog-
nized by the sensor:
1. Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
2. Objects which tend to absorb the sen- sor frequency such as clothes, spongy
material or snow.
3. Undetectable objects smaller than 1 m (40 in.) in height and narrower than 14
cm (6 in.) in diameter.
Rear parking assist system precau-
tions
 The rear parking assist system may not sound sequentially depending on the speed and shapes of the objectsdetected.
 The rear parking assist system may malfunction if the vehicle bumperheight or sensor installation has been
modified or damaged. Any non-factory
installed equipment or accessories
may also interfere with the sensor per-
formance.
 The sensor may not recognize objects less than 30 cm (11.8 in.) from the sen-
sor, or it may sense an incorrect dis-
tance. Use caution.
 When the sensor is frozen or stained with snow, dirt, or water, the sensor
may be inoperative until the stains are
removed using a soft cloth.
 Do not push, scratch or strike the sen- sor. Sensor damage could occur.

NOTICE
This system can only sense objects with- in the range and location of the sensors;
It can not detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed. Also,
small or slim objects, such as poles orobjects located between sensors may notbe detected by the sensors.Always visually check behind the vehi-cle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of the
vehicle that may be unfamiliar with the
system regarding the systems capabili-ties and limitations.Self-diagnosis
If you don’t hear an audible warning
sound or if the buzzer sounds intermit-tently when shifting the gear to the R
(Reverse) position, this may indicate a
malfunction in the rear parking assist
system. If this occurs, we recommend
that the system be checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.WARNING
Pay close attention when the vehi-
cle is driven close to objects on the
road, particularly pedestrians, and
especially children. Be aware that
some objects may not be detected
by the sensors, due to the object’s
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effectiveness of
the sensor. Always perform a visu-al inspection to make sure the vehi-
cle is clear of all obstructions
before moving the vehicle in anydirection.
WARNING
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to
the vehicle or injuries to its occu-pants due to a rear parking assist
system malfunction. Always drive
safely and cautiously.* 1
