Lane Departure Warning System(LDWS)
LDWS alerts the driver with a visual
warning and a warning alarm when the
system detects the vehicle departing the
lane. The steering wheel will not be con-
trolled.
Standard LKA
The Standard LKA mode guides the driv-
er to keep the vehicle within the lanes. It
rarely controls the steering wheel, when
the vehicle drives well inside the lanes.
However, it starts to control the steering
wheel, when the vehicle is about to devi-
ate out of the lanes.
Active LKA
The Active LKA mode provides more fre-
quent steering wheel control in compari-
son with the Standard LKA mode. The
driver may not feel the onset of the steer-
ing wheel control, because the Active
LKA may be constantly controlling the
steering with lighter corrections.
Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2. This device must accept any interfer- ence received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.

The driver can change LKAS to Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) or change
the LKAS mode between Standard LKA and Active LKA from the User Settings mode
on the LCD display. The system is automatically set to Standard LKA if a function is
not selected.

Lane changing
A vehicle which moves into your lanefrom an adjacent lane cannot be rec-
ognized by the radar until it is in the
radar’s detection range.
The radar may not detect immediately when a vehicle cuts in suddenly.
Always pay attention to the traffic, road
and driving conditions.
If a slower vehicle moves into your lane, your speed may decrease to
maintain the distance to the vehicle
ahead.
If a faster vehicle moves into your lane, your vehicle will accelerate to the set
speed.
Detecting vehicles
Some vehicles in your lane cannot be
recognized by the radar:
- Narrow vehicles such as motorcycles orbicycles
- Vehicles offset to one side
- Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-decel- erating vehicles
- Stopped vehicles
- Vehicles with small rear profile such as trailers with no loads A vehicle ahead cannot be recognized
correctly by the radar if any of following
occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing upwards
due to overloading in the trunk
- While the steering wheel is operating
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on curves
Apply the brake or accelerator pedal if
necessary.

Hazardous Driving Conditions
When hazardous driving elements are
encountered such as water, snow, ice,
mud and sand, take the below sugges-
tions:
Drive cautiously and keep a longerbraking distance.
Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
When your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud, or sand, use second gear.
Accelerate slowly to avoid unneces-
sary wheel spin.
Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or other non-slip materials under the wheels to
provide additional traction while the
vehicle becomes stuck in ice, snow, or
mud.
Rocking the Vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to
free it from snow, sand, or mud, first turn
the steering wheel right and left to clear
the area around your front wheels. Then,
shift back and forth between R (Reverse)
and a forward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and do
not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait until
the wheels stop spinning before shifting
gears. Release the accelerator pedal
while shifting, and press lightly on the
accelerator pedal while the transmission
is in gear. Slowly spinning the wheels in
forward and reverse directions causes a
rocking motion that may free the vehicle.
Information
The ESC system must be turned OFF
before rocking the vehicle.

Downshifting with an automatic
transmission/dual clutch transmis-
sion while driving on slippery sur-
faces can cause an accident. The
sudden change in tire speed could
cause the tires to skid. Be careful
when downshifting on slippery sur-
faces.
WARNING
If the vehicle is stuck and excessive
wheel spin occurs, the temperature
in the tires can increase very quick-
ly. If the tires become damaged, a
tire blow out or tire explosion can
occur. This condition is dangerous -
you and others may be injured. Do
not attempt this procedure if people
or objects are anywhere near the
vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehicle,
the vehicle can overheat quickly,
possibly causing an engine com-
partment fire or other damage. Try
to avoid spinning the wheels as
much as possible to prevent over-
heating of either the tires or the
engine. DO NOT allow the vehicle to
spin the wheels above 35 mph (56
km/h).

Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycolcoolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system, lubri-
cates the water pump and prevents
freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish
your coolant in accordance with the
maintenance schedule in chapter 7.
Before winter, have your coolant tested to
assure that its freezing point is sufficient
for the temperatures anticipated during
the winter.
Change to "winter weight" oil ifnecessary
In some climates it is recommended that
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be
used during cold weather. See chapter 8
for recommendations. If you aren't sure
what weight oil you should use, consult
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the bat-
tery and cables as described in chapter
7. The level of charge in your battery can
be checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer or a service station.
Check spark plugs and ignitionsystem
Inspect your spark plugs as described in
chapter 7 and replace them if necessary.
Also check all ignition wiring and compo-
nents to be sure they are not cracked,
worn or damaged in any way.
Use approved window washeranti-freeze in system
To keep the water in the window washer
system from freezing, add an approved
window washer anti-freeze solution in
accordance with instructions on the con-
tainer. Window washer anti-freeze is
available from an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and most auto parts outlets. Do
not use engine coolant or other types of
anti-freeze as these may damage the
paint finish.
Do not let your parking brakefreeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged position.
This is most likely to happen when there
is an accumulation of snow or ice around
or near the rear brakes or if the brakes
are wet. If there is a risk the parking
brake may freeze, apply it only temporar-
ily while you put the gear selector lever in
P and block the rear wheels so the car
cannot roll. Then release the parking
brake.
Do not let ice and snow accu-mulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and inter-
fere with the steering. When driving in
severe winter conditions where this may
happen, you should periodically check
underneath the car to be sure the move-
ment of the front wheels and the steering
components is not obstructed.
