Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the engine Start/Stop button is
in the ON position, the immobilizer
system indicator should come on
briefly, then go off. If the indicator
starts to blink, the system does not
recognize the coding of the key.
Place engine Start/Stop button to the
OFF position, then place the engine
Start/Stop button to the ON position
again.
The system may not recognize your
key’s coding if another immobilizer
key or other metal object (i.e., key
chain) is near the key. The engine
may not start because the metal may
interrupt the transponder signal from
transmitting normally.
If the system repeatedly does not
recognize the coding of the key, it is
recommended that you contact your
HYUNDAI dealer.Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobilizer
system. It is designed to give
years of trouble-free service, how-
ever you should avoid exposure to
moisture, static electricity and
rough handling. Immobilizer sys-
tem malfunction could occur.
Information

the FCC rules.

NOTICE
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys

tomer unique password and

Electric Power Steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is turned off
or if the power steering system
becomes inoperative, you may still
steer the vehicle, but it will require
increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the engine
Start/Stop button is in the ON posi-
tion.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics are completed,
the steering wheel will return to its
normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the engine Start/Stop
button is in the ON/OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
• If the outside ambient temperature is low, when you operate the steer-
ing wheel a noise from the electric
power steering may occur. As the
temperature increases, the noise will
disappear.
i
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light ( ) will
illuminate on the instrument
cluster. You may steer the vehi-
cle, but it will require increased
steering efforts. Take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked as soon as possible.

Programming HomeLink®
Please note the following:
When programming a garage dooropener, it is advised to park the
vehicle outside of the garage.
It is recommended that a new bat- tery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink
®for quicker
training and accurate transmission
of the radio-frequency signal.
Some vehicles may require the engine Start/Stop button to be
placed in the ACC position for pro-
gramming and/or operation of
HomeLink
®.
In the event that there are still pro- gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming
steps listed below, contact
HomeLink
®at: www.homelink.com
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
Programming
To train most devices, follow these
instructions:
1. For first-time programming, press and hold the two outside buttons
( ,), HomeLink
®Channel 1
and Channel 3, until the indicator
light begins to flash (after 10 sec-
onds). Release both buttons. Do
not hold the buttons for longer
than 20 seconds.

Flashing
Before programming HomeLink®
to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure people and
objects are out of the way of the
device to prevent potential harm
or damage. Do not use the
HomeLink
®with any garage door
opener that lacks the safety stop
and reverse features required by
U.S. federal safety standards (this
includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April
1, 1982). A garage door that can-
not detect an object - signaling
the door to stop and reverse -
does not meet current U.S. feder-
al safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without
these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.
