✽✽
NOTICE
An inappropriately disposedbattery can be harmful to
the environment and human
health. Dispose of the bat-
tery according to your local
law(s) and regulation(s).
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobilizer sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognize
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF position, then place the
ignition switch to the ON positionagain.
The system may not recognize your
key’s coding if another immobilizer
key or other metal object (i.e., key
chain) is near the key. The engine
may not start because the metal may
interrupt the transponder signal from
transmitting normally. If the system repeatedly does not
recognize the coding of the key, con-
tact your HYUNDAI dealer. Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
