What Does Regenerative
Braking Do?
It uses an electric motor when decel-
erating and when braking and trans-
forms kinetic energy to electrical
energy in order to charge the high
voltage battery.
Battery
• Hybrid
- The vehicle is composed of a
high voltage battery that drives
the motor and air conditioner, and
an integrated 12V lithium ion
polymer battery with the HEV
battery that drives the lamps,
wipers, and audio system.
- The integrated 12V battery is auto-
matically charged when the vehicle
is in the ready ( ) mode.
• Plug-in hybrid vehicle
- The vehicle is composed of a
highvoltage battery that drives
the motor and air-conditioner,
and an auxiliary battery (12 V)
that drives the lamps, wipers, and
audio system.
- The auxiliary battery is automati-
cally charged when the vehicle is
in the ready ( ) mode.
Hybrid System Gauge
The hybrid system gauge indicates
whether the current driving condition
is fuel efficient or not.
• CHARGE :
Shows that the energy made by
the vehicle is being converted
to electrical energy. (Regenerated
energy)
• ECO :
Shows that the vehicle is being
driven in an Eco-friendly manner.
• POWER :
Shows that the vehicle is exceeding
the Eco-friendly range.According to the hybrid system
gauge area, the "EV" indicator comes
on or off.
- "EV" indicator ON : Vehicle is driven
using the electric motor or the
gasoline engine is stopped.
- "EV" indicator OFF : Vehicle is driv-
en using the gasoline engine.

What to do in an emergency
Before jump starting
This vehicle does not have a regular
12V battery that needs periodic
replacement. It is lithium ion polymer
type integrated into the HEV high
voltage battery. The vehicle has a
12V battery protection system that
cuts 12V battery from vehicle draw to
prevent full discharge.
Using the 12V battery reset
switch
1. Press the 12V Battery Reset
switch to reconnect the 12V bat-
tery.
2. Start the vehicle within 15 sec-
onds of pressing the 12V Battery
Reset switch.
3. After starting vehicle ( indica-
tor on), operate the vehicle safely
outdoors in ready mode stopped
and/or drive it for 30 minutes total
to charge the 12V battery fully.If you do not start the vehicle imme-
diately after pressing the 12V Battery
Reset switch, the power of 12V bat-
tery is automatically disconnected
after few seconds to save the 12V
battery from additional discharge. If
the 12V battery is disconnected prior
to starting the vehicle, press the 12V
Battery Reset switch again and then
immediately start the vehicle as
explained.
Repeated use of the 12V Battery
Reset switch without a sufficient
engine ON cycle (30 Min+) may
cause over discharge of the 12V bat-
tery, which will prevent the vehicle
from starting. If the 12V battery is
over discharged to a point that the
reset does not work, try to jump-start
the vehicle.
Information
After starting the vehicle ( indica-
tor on), the 12V battery is being
charged whether the engine is running
or not. Although there is no engine-
sound, it is unnecessary to depress the
accelerator pedal.

Maintenance
Compact spare tire replacement
(if equipped)
A compact spare tire has a shorter
tread life than a regular size tire.
Replace it when you can see the
tread wear indicator bars on the tire.
The replacement compact spare tire
should be the same size and design
tire as the one provided with your
new vehicle and should be mounted
on the same compact spare tire
wheel. The compact spare tire is not
designed to be mounted on a regular
size wheel, and the compact spare
tire wheel is not designed for mount-
ing a regular size tire.
Wheel replacement
When replacing the metal wheels for
any reason, make sure the new
wheels are equivalent to the original
factory units in diameter, rim width
and offset.
Tire traction
Tire traction can be reduced if you
drive on worn tires, tires that are
improperly inflated or on slippery
road surfaces. Tires should be
replaced when tread wear indicators
appear. To reduce the possibility of
losing control, slow down whenever
there is rain, snow or ice on the road. (Continued)
•When replacing tires (or
wheels), it is recommended to
replace the two front or two
rear tires (or wheels) as a pair.
Replacing just one tire can
seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling.
•Tires degrade over time, even
when they are not being used.
Regardless of the remaining
tread, HYUNDAI recommends
that tires be replaced after six
(6) years of normal service.
•Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high loading condi-
tions can accelerate the aging
process. Failure to follow this
warning may cause sudden
tire failure, which could lead to
a loss of vehicle control result-
ing in an accident.
The original tire should be
repaired or replaced as soon as
possible to avoid failure of the
spare and loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. The com-
pact spare tire is for emergency
use only. Do not operate your
vehicle over 80 km/h (50 mph)
when using the compact spare
tire.
WARNING

A hóláncot mindig párban szerelje fel
az első kerekekre. Fontos
megjegyezni, hogy a kerekekre
felszerelt hólánc nagyobb tapadóerőt
biztosít, azonban nem akadályozza
meg a kicsúszást oldalra.A hуlбnc felszerelйse
A hólánc felszerelésekor figyelmesen
kövesse gyártójának utasításait, és a
lehető legfeszesebbre húzza meg a
láncot. A felszerelt hólánccal lassan
közlekedjen. Ha a lánc hozzáverődik
a karosszériához vagy az alvázhoz,
álljon meg és feszítsen rajta. Ha még
mindig hozzáér, lassítson le annyira,
hogy megszűnjön a kontaktus.
Haladéktalanul távolítsa el a
láncokat, amint tiszta útra ér.
9-8
Appendix
•Ügyeljen arra, hogy a hólánc a
gumiabroncsaihoz megfelelő
méretű és típusú legyen. A
nem megfelelő méretű hólánc
megrongálhatja gépkocsija
karosszériáját és
felfüggesztéseit, és erre nem
vonatkozik a gépkocsi
garanciája. Ezenkívül a
hólánc összekötő kapcsai
megsérülhetnek a
karosszériához ütődéstől,
amitől a hólánc meglazulhat,
és leeshet a kerékről.
Kizárólag az SAE szabvány
szerinti „S” osztályú hóláncot
használjon.
•0,5 - 1km megtétele után
ellenőrizze megfelelő
elhelyezkedésüket a
biztonságos felszerelésük
érdekében. Ha meglazultak,
húzza meg újra, vagy szerelje
fel ismét a hóláncokat.
FIGYELEM!
Hólánc felszerelése
Forgalomtól távol eső sík
felületen álljon félre. Kapcsolja
be a vészvillogót és tegyen ki
elakadásjelző háromszöget a
gépkocsi mögé. A hólánc
felszerelése előtt mindig
kapcsolja P állásba a
sebességváltó választókarját,
működtesse a rögzítőféket, majd
