•Grasp the support rod in the
area wrapped in rubber. The
rubber will help prevent you
from being burned by hot
metal when the engine is hot.

inserted completely into the
hole provided whenever you
inspect the engine compart-
ment. This will prevent the
bonnet from falling and possi-
bly injuring you.

Make sure the vehicle is in P (Park)
and set the parking brake.
Then do one of the following:
1. Unlock all doors with the Door Unlock button on your remote key or
smart key. Press the tailgate handle

ensure all obstructions are
removed from around the bon-
net opening.

warning light or message dis-
played on the instrument clus-
ter. If the bonnet is not latched
whilst the vehicle is moving,
the chime will sound to warn
the driver the bonnet is not
fully latched. Driving with the
bonnet opened may cause a
total loss of visibility, which
might result in an accident.
•Do not move the vehicle with
the bonnet in the raised posi-
tion, as vision is obstructed,
which might result in an acci-
dent, and the bonnet could fall
or be damaged.

Convenient features of your vehicle
•Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers
designed to carry and store
petrol.
•Do not use matches or a
lighter and do not smoke or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle whilst at a gas station,
especially during refuelling.
•Do not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
petrol spillage.
•If a fire breaks out during refu-
elling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station and then contact the
local fire department. Follow
any safety instructions they
provide.
•When refuelling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park,
for dual clutch transmission)
or first gear or R (Reverse, for
manual transmission) posi-
tion, set the parking brake, and
place the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position. Sparks
produced by electrical compo-
nents related to the engine can
ignite fuel
vapourscausing a
fire.
•When using an approved
portable fuel container, be
sure to place the container on
the ground prior to refuelling.
Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite
fuel vapours causing a fire.
Once refuelling has begun,
contact between your bare
hand and the vehicle should
be maintained until the filling
is complete.
•Do not use mobile phones
whilst refuelling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from mobile phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapours
and cause a fire.
•Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refu-
elling. You can generate a
build-up of static electricity by
touching, rubbing or sliding
against any item or fabric
capable of producing static
electricity.
Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapours caus-
ing a fire. If you must re-enter
the vehicle, you should once
again eliminate potentially
dangerous static electricity
discharge by touching a metal
part of the vehicle, away from
the fuel filler neck, nozzle or
other petrol source, with your
bare hand.

Convenient features of your vehicle
If the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safelocation and stop your vehicle.
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
remains on, or if the brakes do not
operate properly, do not drive the
vehicle. We recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
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 are
required to stop the vehicle. Also, the vehicle will not stop in as
short a distance with only a portion
of the brake system working.
If the brakes fail whilst you are driv-
ing, shift to a lower gear for addition-
al engine braking and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.

(ABS) Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you set the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
ON position.

tem will still be operational without
the assistance of the anti-lock
brake system).
In this case, we recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
Driving the vehicle with a warn-
ing light ON is dangerous. If the
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light illuminates with
the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid
level is low.
In this case, we recommend
that you have the vehicle
inspected by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
