Wireless Cellular Phone
Charging System (if equipped)
There is a wireless cellular phone
charging inside the front console.
The system is available when all
doors are closed, and when the
Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ACC/ON position.
To charge a cellular phone
The wireless cellular phone charging
system charges only the Qi-enabled
cellular phones ( ). Read the label
on the cellular phone accessory
cover or visit your cellular phone
manufacturer's website to check
whether your cellular phone supports
the Qi technology.
The wireless charging process starts
when you put a Qi-enabled cellular
phone on the wireless charging unit.1. Remove other items, including the
smart key, from the wireless charg-
ing unit. If not, the wireless charg-
ing process may be interrupted.
2. The indicator illuminates in orange during the charging process. The
indicator color changes to green,
when the charging process is
completed.
3. You can turn ON or OFF the wire- less charging function in the user
settings mode on the instrument
cluster. (For further information,
refer to the "LCD Modes" in this
chapter.)

Slightly change the cellular phone
position, when the cellular phone is
not being charged. Make sure that
the indicator illuminates in orange.
The indicator color may not change
to green in accordance with the cel-
lular phone type, even though the
charging process is completed. The
indicator blinks in orange for 10 sec-
onds when there is a malfunction
with the wireless charging system. In
this case, temporarily stop the charg-
ing process, and re-attempt to wire-
lessly charge your cellular phone
again.
The system warns you with a mes-
sage on the LCD display when you
do not take out the cellular phone
from the wireless charging unit with
the front door open and the Engine
Start/Stop button in the OFF posi-
tion. The wireless cellular phone
charging system may not sup-
port certain cellular phones,
which are not verified for the Qi
specification ( ).
Locate your cell phone well in the middle of the wireless cellu-
lar phone charging system.
Even when your cell phone
locates slightly to one side, the
charging speed may decrease.
The wireless charging process may temporarily stop, when a
smart key function operates (i.e.
starting the engine, opening the
doors, closing the doors).
For certain cell phones, the indi- cator color may not change to
green, even when the wireless
charging process is properly
completed.
(Continued)(Continued)
The wireless charging process
may temporarily stop, when tem-
perature abnormally increases
inside the wireless cellular
phone charging system. The
wireless charging process
restarts, when temperature falls
to a proper level.
The wireless charging process may temporarily stop when
there is any metallic item, such
as a coin, between the wireless
cellular phone charging system
and a cellular phone.NOTICE

Power Outlet (if equipped)
The power outlet is designed to pro-
vide power for mobile telephones or
other devices designed to operate
with vehicle electrical systems. The
devices should draw less than 180
W(Watt) with the engine running.To prevent damage to the Power
Outlets :
Use the power outlet only when
the engine is running and
remove the accessory plug after
use. Using the accessory plug
for prolonged periods of time
with the engine off could cause
the battery to discharge.
Only use 12V electric acces- sories which are less than 180
W(Watt) in electric capacity.
Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operating
level when using the power out-
let.
Close the cover when not in use.
Some electronic devices can cause electronic interference
when plugged into a vehicle’s
power outlet. These devices may
cause excessive audio static
and malfunctions in other elec-
tronic systems or devices used
in your vehicle.
(Continued)
NOTICE
Avoid electrical shocks. Do not
place your fingers or foreign
objects (pin, etc.) into a power
outlet or touch the power outlet
with a wet hand.

Multimedia System
How vehicle audio works
AM and FM radio signals are broad-
cast from transmitter towers located
around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your vehi-
cle. This signal is then processed by
the radio and sent to your vehicle
speakers.
When a strong radio signal has
reached your vehicle, the precise
engineering of your audio system
ensures the best possible quality
reproduction. However, in some
cases the signal coming to your vehi-
cle may not be strong and clear.This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio sta-
tions or the presence of buildings,
bridges or other large obstructions in
the area.
AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broad-
casts. This is because AM radio
waves are transmitted at low fre-
quencies. These long distance, low
frequency radio waves can follow the
curvature of the earth rather than
travelling straight. In addition, they
curve around obstructions resulting
in better signal coverage.

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is toxic. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness and death.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide which cannot be seen or smelled.
Do not inhale engine exhaust.
If at any time you smell engine exhaust inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. Exposure to CO can cause
unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation.
Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If
you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the
vehicle, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Run the engine only
long enough to start the engine and to move the vehicle out of the garage.
Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the vehicle.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the vehicle , be sure to do so only in an
open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan control set to high so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
Keep the air intakes clear.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, keep the ventilation air intakes located in front of the windshield
clear of snow, ice, leaves, or other obstructions.
If you must drive with the trunk open:
Close all windows.
Open instrument panel air vents.
Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face", and the fan control set to high.

Driving your vehicle
(Continued)
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in P (Park) position, apply the
parking brake, and turn ignition
switch to the LOCK position.
Unexpected vehicle movement
may occur if these precautions
are not followed.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the fol-
lowing precautions:
NEVER allow children or any
person who is unfamiliar with
the vehicle to touch the igni-
tion switch or related parts.
Unexpected and sudden vehi-
cle movement can occur.
NEVER reach through the
steering wheel for the ignition
switch, or any other control,
while the vehicle is in motion.
The presence of your hand or
arm in this area may cause a
loss of vehicle control result-
ing in an accident.
WARNING
NEVER turn the ignition switch
to the LOCK or ACC position
while the vehicle is in motion
except in an emergency. This
will result in the engine turning
off and loss of power assist for
the steering and brake systems.
This may lead to loss of direc-
tional control and braking func-
tion, which could cause an acci-
dent.(Continued)
