Immobiliser System
The immobiliser 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 immobiliser sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognise
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position, then place the
ignition switch to the ON position
again.
The system may not recognise your
key’s coding if another immobiliser
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
recognise the coding of the key, it is
recommended that you contact 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.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle.
CAUTION
The transponder in your key is
an important part of the immo-
biliser system. It is designed to
give years of trouble-free serv-
ice, however you should avoid
exposure to moisture, static
electricity and rough handling.
Immobiliser system malfunction
could occur.

WARNING
• NEVER allow anyone to occu-
py the boot of the vehicle at
any time. If the boot is partial-
ly 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 boot 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 keys should be
kept out of the reach of chil-
dren. Parents should teach
their children about the dan-
gers of playing in boots.
CAUTION
Make certain that you close the
boot before driving your vehi-
cle. Possible damage may occur
to the boot lift cylinders and
attached hardware if the boot is
not closed prior to driving.
WARNING
The boot lid should be always
kept completely closed whilst
the vehicle is in motion. If it is
left open or ajar, poisonous
exhaust gases may enter the
vehicle and serious illness or
death may result.
