Driving your vehicle
Limitations of the System
The Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) system is designed to monitor the
vehicle ahead or a pedestrian in the
roadway through radar signals and cam-
era recognition to warn the driver that a
collision is imminent, and if necessary,
apply emergency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sensor or
the camera may not be able to detect the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead. In these
cases, the AEB system may not operate
normally. The driver must pay careful
attention in the following situations where
the AEB operation may be limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
- The radar sensor or camera is blockedwith a foreign object or debris.
- Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of view of
the radar sensor or camera.
- There is interference by electromag- netic waves.
- There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor.
- The vehicle in front is too small to be detected by the camera recognition
system (for example a motorcycle or a
bicycle, etc.).
- The vehicle in front is an oversize vehi- cle or trailer that is too big to be detect-
ed by the camera recognition system
(for example a tractor trailer, etc.).
- The driver's field of view is not well illu- minated (either too dark or too much
reflection or too much backlight that
obscures the field of view).
- The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights properly turned ON.
- The outside brightness changes sud- denly, for example when entering or
exiting a tunnel.
(Continued)The brake control may be insuffi-
cient, possibly causing a colli-
sion, if a vehicle in front abruptly
stops. Always pay extreme cau-
tion.
Occupants may get injured, if the
vehicle abruptly stops by the acti-
vated AEB system. Pay extreme
caution.

Driving your vehicle
If you are still stuck after rocking the
vehicle a few times, have the vehicle
pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid
engine overheating, possible damage
to the transmission, and tire damage.
See "Towing" in chapter 6.
Smooth Cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in cor-
ners, especially when roads are wet.
Ideally, corners should always be taken
under gentle acceleration.
Driving at Night
Night driving presents more hazards
than driving in the daylight. Here are
some important tips to remember:
Slow down and keep more distancebetween you and other vehicles, as it
may be more difficult to see at night,
especially in areas where there may
not be any street lights.
Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare from other driver's headlamps.
Keep your headlamps clean and prop- erly aimed. Dirty or improperly aimed
headlamps will make it much more dif-
ficult to see at night.
Avoid staring directly at the headlamps of oncoming vehicles. You could be
temporarily blinded, and it will take
several seconds for your eyes to read-
just to the darkness.
Driving in the Rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous. Here are a few things to con-
sider when driving in the rain or on slick
pavement:
Slow down and allow extra followingdistance. A heavy rainfall makes it
harder to see and increases the dis-
tance needed to stop your vehicle.
Turn OFF your Cruise Control.
Replace your windshield wiper blades when they show signs of streaking or
missing areas on the windshield.
Tires should be properly maintained with at least 2/32nds of an inch of tread
depth. If your tires do not have enough
tread, making a quick stop on wet
pavement can cause a skid and possi-
bly lead to an accident. See "Tire
Tread" in chapter 7.
Turn on your headlamps to make it easier for others to see you.
Driving too fast through large puddles can affect your brakes. If you must go
through puddles, try to drive through
them slowly.
If you believe your brakes may be wet, apply them lightly while driving until
normal braking operation returns.
NOTICE

6-2
The hazard warning flasher serves as a
warning to other drivers to exercise
extreme caution when approaching,
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emergency
repairs are being made or when the vehi-
cle is stopped near the edge of a road-
way.
To turn the hazard warning flasher on or
off, press the hazard warning flasher but-
ton. The button is located in the center
fascia panel. Both the left and right turn
signal lights will flash simultaneously.
• The hazard warning flasher operates
whether your vehicle is running or not.
The turn signals do not work when the hazard flasher is on.
If the Engine Stalls While
Driving
Reduce your speed gradually, keepinga straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place.
Turn on your hazard warning flasher.
Try to start the engine again. If your vehicle will not start, contact an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer or seek other
qualified assistance.
If the Engine Stalls at a
Crossroad or Crossing
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, if safe to do so, move the shift
lever to the N (Neutral) position and then
push the vehicle to a safe location.
If you Have a Flat Tire While
Driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
Take your foot off the accelerator pedaland let the vehicle slow down while
driving straight ahead. Do not apply the
brakes immediately or attempt to pull
off the road as this may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an accident.
When the vehicle has slowed to such a
speed that it is safe to do so, brake
carefully and pull off the road. Drive off
the road as far as possible and park on
firm, level ground. If you are on a divid-
ed highway, do not park in the median
area between the two traffic lanes.
When the vehicle is stopped, press the hazard warning flasher button, move
the shift lever into P(Park), and apply
the parking brake, and place the igni-
tion switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
Have all passengers get out of the vehicle. Be sure they all get out on the
side of the vehicle that is away from
traffic.
When changing a flat tire, follow the instructions provided later in this chap-
ter.

What to do in an emergency
Information
An inappropriately disposed bat-tery can be harmful to the envi-
ronment and human health.
Dispose the battery according to
your local law(s) or regulations.
To prevent damage to your vehicle:
• Only use a 12-volt power supply (battery or jumper system) to jump
start your vehicle.
Do not attempt to jump start your vehicle by push-starting.
Jump starting procedure
1. Position the vehicles close enough that the jumper cables will reach, but
do not allow the vehicles to touch.
2. Avoid fans or any moving parts in the engine compartment at all times, even
when the vehicles are turned off.
3. Turn off all electrical devices such as radios, lights, air conditioning, etc. Put
the vehicles in P (Park) and set the
parking brakes. Turn both vehicles
OFF.
NOTICE
i
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH to you or bystanders,
always follow these precautions
when working near or handling the
battery:
Always read and follow
instructions carefully when
handling a battery.
Wear eye protection
designed to protect the
eyes from acid splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks, or
smoking materials away
from the battery.
Hydrogen is always present in battery cells, is highly
combustible, and may
explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of reach
of children.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)Batteries contain sulfuric
acid which is highly corro-
sive. Do not allow acid to
contact your eyes, skin or
clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get immediate
medical attention. If acid gets on
your skin, thoroughly wash the
area. If you feel pain or a burning
sensation, get medical attention
immediately.
When lifting a plastic-cased bat-
tery, excessive pressure on the

A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one
located in the driver's side panel bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse will be
melted or broken.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver's side fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, turn the
engine and all switches off, and then dis-
connect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and immediately
consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Four kinds of fuses are used : blade type
for lower amperage rating, cartridge type/
Multi fuse/Battery fuse terminal for high-
er amperage ratings. Do not use a screwdriver or any other
metal object to remove fuses because
it may cause a short circuit and dam-
age the system.
NOTICE
i
NEVER replace a fuse with any-
thing but another fuse of the same
rating.
A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly
cause a fire.
Do not install a wire or aluminum
foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and possibly a fire.
