Information
 The fuel tank capacity is given in chapter 8.
 The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
 On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank.
Avoid driving with a extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuelcould cause the engine to misfire
damaging the catalytic converter.Hybrid battery SOC (State of Charge) gauge
This gauge indicates the remaining
hybrid battery power. If the SOC is
near the "0 or L (Low)" level, the
vehicle automatically operates the
engine to charge the battery.
However, if the Service Indicator
( ) and Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) ( ) turn on when the
SOC gauge is near the "0 or L (Low)"
level, we recommend the vehicle be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
NOTICE
i
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addi-
tional fuel as soon as possibleafter the warning light comes
on or when the gauge indicator
comes close to the "0 or E

2. With the engine stopped, check the brake fluid level immediately and add fluid as required (For more
details, refer to “Brake Fluid” in
chapter 7) . After adding brake
fluid, check all brake components
for fluid leaks. If a brake fluid leak is
found, or if the warning light

operate properly, do not drive the
vehicle. We recommend you to
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail. With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal
travel and greater pedal pressure is
required to stop the vehicle.

If the engine oil pressure is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe location and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the engine oil level (For more details,
refer to “Engine Oil” in chapter 7) .
If the level is low, add oil as required.
If the warning light remains on
after adding oil or if oil is not avail-
able, we recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by an

Driving your vehicle
The dual clutch transmission givesthe driving feel of a manual trans-
mission, yet provides the ease of a
fully automatic transmission. Unlike
a traditional automatic transmis-sion, the gear shifting can some-
times be felt and heard on the dual
clutch transmission, as the actua-tors engage the clutch and thegear is selected.
The dual clutch transmission can be thought of as an automatically
shifting manual transmission.
When D (Drive) is selected, the
transmission will automatically shiftthrough the gears similar to a con-
ventional automatic transmission. The dual clutch transmission incor-
porates a dry-type dual clutch
mechanism, which allows for better
acceleration performance and
increased fuel efficiency while driv-
ing. But it differs from a conven-
tional automatic transmission in
that it does not incorporate a
torque converter. Instead, the tran-
sition from one gear to the next is
managed by clutch slip, especially
at lower speeds. As a result, shifts
are sometimes more noticeable,
and a light vibration can be felt as
the transmission shaft speed ismatched with the engine shaft
speed. This is a normal condition of
the dual clutch transmission.
The dry-type clutch transfers torque more directly and provides
a direct-drive feeling which may
feel different from a conventional
automatic transmission. This may
be more noticeable when launch-
ing the vehicle from a stop or when
traveling at low, stop-and-go vehi-
cle speeds.
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surround-
ing areas near your vehicle for
people, especially children,
before shifting a vehicle into
D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver's
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, then set the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occurif these precautions are not
followed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not use the engine brake
(shifting from a high gear to
lower gear) rapidly on slip-
pery roads. The vehicle mayslip causing an accident.
