Gauges
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the
speed of the vehicle and is calibratedin miles per hour (mph) and/or kilo-meters per hour (km/h).
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the
approximate number of engine revo-
lutions per minute (rpm). Use the tachometer to select the cor-
rect shift points and to prevent lug-
ging and/or over-revving the engine. Do not operate the engine within
the tachometer’s RED ZONE. This
may cause severe engine damage.
Engine Coolant TemperatureGauge
This gauge indicates the tempera-ture of the engine coolant when the
ignition switch or Engine Start/Stop
button is ON.

Convenient features of your vehicle
If the gauge pointer moves
beyond the normal range area
toward the "H" position, it indi-
cates overheating that may dam-
age the engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to "If the Engine
Overheats" in chapter 6.
Fuel Gauge
This gauge indicates the approxi-mate amount of fuel remaining in thefuel tank.
Information
 The fuel tank capacity is given inchapter 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.
iNOTICE
Never remove the radiator cap or
reservoir cap when the engine is
hot. The engine coolant is under
pressure and could severely
burn. Wait until the engine is cool
before adding coolant to the
reservoir.

Low Fuel
This warning message is displayed if the fuel tank is almost out of fuel.
When this message is displayed, the
vehicle range is approximately 30
miles.
When this message is displayed, the
low fuel level warning light in thecluster will come on.
It is recommended to look for the nearest fueling station and refuel as
soon as possible.
Engine has overheated
This warning message is displayed
when the engine coolant tempera-
ture is above 248°F (120°C). This
means that the engine is overheated
and may be damaged.
If your vehicle is overheated, refer
to "Overheating" in chapter 6.
Check headlight
This warning message is displayed if
the headlamps are not operating
properly. The headlamp bulb may
need to be replaced. If the vehicle is
equipped with LED headlamps, have
the vehicle inspected by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.

When the ECO mode is activated:
The acceleration response may beslightly reduced as the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
The air conditioner performance may be limited.
The shift pattern of the automatic transmission or dual clutch trans-
mission may change.
The engine noise may get louder.
The above situations are normal conditions when the ECO mode is
activated to improve fuel efficiency. Limitation of the ECO mode oper-ation:
If the following conditions occur while
the ECO mode is operating, the sys-
tem operation is limited even thoughthere is no change in the ECO indi-
cator.
When the coolant temperature is
low: The system will be limited until
engine performance becomes nor-mal.
When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.
When driving the vehicle with the automatic transmission or the dual
clutch transmission gear shift lever
in manual shift mode. The system will be limited accord- ing to the shift location.SPORT mode
SPORT mode manages
the driving dynamics byautomatically adjusting the
electric power steering
and the engine and transmission
control logic for enhanced driver per-
formance.
When SPORT mode is selected by pressing the DRIVE MODE button,
the SPORT indicator (yellow color)
will illuminate.
Whenever the engine is restarted, the Drive Mode will revert back to
NORMAL mode. If SPORT mode is
desired, re-select SPORT mode
from the DRIVE MODE button.
When SPORT mode is activated: - The engine rpm will tend toremain raised over a certain
length of time even after releas-
ing the accelerator
- Upshifts are delayed when accel- erating
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency
may decrease.

Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or
damage the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged
tires, which may reduce traction or
fail the braking operation.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as speci-
fied on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engineoil
Driving at higher speeds on the high-
way consumes more fuel and is less
efficient than driving at a slower,
more moderate speed. Maintain a
moderate speed in order to conserve
fuel when driving on the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine
coolant level and the engine oil
before driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
overheat the engine.
Reducing the risk of a rollover
Your multi-purpose passenger vehi-
cle is defined as a Sports Utility
Vehicle (SUV). SUV's have higher
ground clearance and a narrower
track to make them capable of per-
forming in a wide variety of off-road
applications. The specific design
characteristics give them a higher
center of gravity than ordinary vehi-
cles making them more likely to roll
over if you make abrupt turns. Utility
vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehi-
cles. Due to this risk, driver and pas-sengers are strongly recommended
to buckle their seat belts. In a rollover
crash, an unbelted person is signifi-
cantly more likely to die than a per-
son wearing a seat belt.
There are steps that a driver can
make to reduce the risk of a rollover.
If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or
abrupt maneuvers, do not load your
vehicle with heavy cargo on the roof,
and never modify your vehicle in any
way.
