The drive mode may be selected
according to the driver’s preference
or road condition.
The system resets to be in the ECO
mode, when the hybrid system is

NORMAL mode or SPORT mode. The mode changes, as below,
whenever the DRIVE MODE button
is pressed.
When NORMAL mode is selected,
it is not displayed on the instrument

to maximize fuel efficiency
When the ECO mode is selected by
pressing the DRIVE MODE button,
the ECO indicator (green color) will
illuminate.

The ECO mode will provide best effi-
ciency for customer driving habits
that are not aggressive in accelerating
and in conditions not involving many
rolling hills to drive through. Under
situation of aggressive driving style or
driving conditions involving rolling
hills causing frequent gear shifts you
should try NORMAL mode instead as
it may actually yield your best econo-
my and drivability. Compare between
the 2 modes.

What to do in an emergency
6
If your engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates overheating, you
experience a loss of power, or hear
loud pinging or knocking, the engine
may be overheating. If this happens,
you should:
1. Turn ON the hazard warning flash-
er, pull off the road and stop as
soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (Park)
and set the parking brake.
3. Make sure that there is no hot
steam gushing out of the engine
compartment. When it is safe to
do so, open the engine compart-
ment, and check the water-pump
connector. When the water-pump
connector is disconnected, stop
the engine, re-connect the water-
pump connector, and then re-start
the engine.
4. Set the temperature and the air
flow to the maximum, and turn ON
the air conditioner.5. When the Service warning light
( ) illuminates on the instru-
ment cluster, immediately stop the
engine, and contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. When the
engine warning light ( ) illumi-
nates, or when the coolant or hot
steams gush out of the engine
compartment, leave the engine
compartment opened, while run-
ning the engine. This is to ventilate
the engine compartment and to
cool down the engine.
6. Check the coolant temperature
gauge on the instrument cluster to
make sure the coolant temperature
is sufficiently cooled down. Check
the coolant level. When it is insuffi-
cient, check its connection with the
radiator, the heater hose, and the
water pump for any leakage. When
there is no leakage, add the
coolant. However, if the problems
persists, such as the illumination of
the warning lights, leakages, or the
cooling-fan malfunction, which may
overheat the engine, immediately
stop the engine, and have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
