State of Charge (SOC) gauge forhigh voltage battery
The SOC gauge shows the charging
status of the high voltage battery.
"L (Low)" position on the indicator
indicates that there is not enough
energy in the high voltage battery. "H
(High)" position indicates that the
driving battery is fully charged.
When driving on highways or motor-
ways, make sure to check in advance
if the driving battery is charged
enough. When there are 2~3 gauge bars
(near the "L (Low)" area) on the SOC
gauge, the warning lamp turns ON to
alert you of the battery level.
When the warning lamp turns ON,
the vehicle can drive an additional
12~18 miles (20~30 km) depending
on the driving speed, heater/air con-
ditioner, weather, driving style, and
other factors. Charging is required.When there are 1-2 gauge bars left
for the high voltage battery, the
vehicle speed is limited and then
eventually the vehicle will turn OFF.
Charge the vehicle immediately.

ger in the front passenger seat, ener-
gy consumption will be reduced.

Air conditioner/Heater uses energy
from the battery. If you use the heater
or air conditioner for too long, dis-
tance to empty can be reduced due
to increased power consumption.
Turn off the heater and air conditioner
if not necessary.EV mode (if equipped)
Push the EV button to enter the EV
mode on the AVN screen.
The EV mode has a total of 7 menus
including Range, Nearby Stations,
Energy Information, Drive Mode,
ECO Driving, Charging/Climate
Settings and EV Settings.
For details on EV mode, refer to
the Multimedia System manual
that is provided separately.
OFF mode
Push the OFF button to turn the cli-
mate control system off. You can still

Air conditioning system operation
tips
 If the vehicle has been parked indirect sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
 After sufficient cooling has been achieved, switch back from the
recirculated air to the fresh outside
air position.
 To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system with the win-
dows and sunroof closed.
 Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per-
formance.  If you operate air conditioner
excessively, the difference between
the temperature of the outside air
and that of the windshield could
cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up, causing loss
of visibility. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button to
the  position and fan speed
control to the lower speed.
System Maintenance
Climate control air filter
This filter is installed behind the glove
box. It filters the dust or other pollu-
tants that enter the vehicle through the
heating and air conditioning system.
Have the climate control air filter
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer according to the maintenance
schedule. If the car is being driven in
severe conditions such as dusty or
rough roads, more frequent air condi-
tioner filter inspections and changes
are required.
If the air flow rate suddenly decreas-
es, the system should be checked at
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Windshield heating 
Do not use the  or  posi-
tion during cooling operation in
extremely humid weather. The
difference between the temper-
ature of the outside air and that
of the windshield could cause
the outer surface of the wind-
shield to fog up, causing loss of
visibility could cause an acci-
dent resulting in serious injury
or death. In this case, set the
mode selection knob or button
to the  position and fan
speed control knob or button to
a lower speed.
WARNING For maximum defrosting, set the
temperature control to the extreme
right/hot position and the fan speed
control to the highest speed.
 If warm air to the floor is desired while defrosting or defogging, set the
mode to the floor-defrost position.
 Before driving, clear all snow and ice from the windshield, rear win-
dow, side view mirrors, and all side
windows.
 Clear all snow and ice from the hood and air inlet in the cowl grill to
improve heater and defroster effi-
ciency and to reduce the probability
of fogging up the inside of the wind-
shield.To Defog Inside Windshield
1. Select desired fan speed.
2. Select desired temperature.
3. Press the defroster button ( ).
4. The outside (fresh) air position will be selected automatically.
If the outside (fresh) air position is
not selected automatically, adjust the
corresponding button manually.
If the  position is selected, lower
fan speed is adjusted to a higher fan
speed.

To Defrost Outside Windshield
1. Set the fan speed to the highest(extreme right) position.
2. Set the temperature to the extreme hot (HI) position.
3. Press the defroster button ( ).
4. The outside (fresh) air position will be selected automatically.
If the  position is selected, lower
fan speed is adjusted to a higher fan
speed.
Defogging Logic
To reduce the probability of fogging
up the inside of the windshield, the
air intake or air conditioning are con-
trolled automatically according to
certain conditions such as  or 
position. To cancel or return the
defogging logic, do the following.
1. Turn the POWER button to the ON position.
2. Press the defroster button ( ).
3. While pressing the air conditioning button (A/C), press the air intake
control button at least 5 times with-
in 3 seconds.
The air intake control button indicator
will blink 3 times. It indicates that the
defogging logic is canceled or
returned to the programmed status.
If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, it resets to the defog
logic status.
Auto Defogging System 
Auto defogging system reduces the
possibility of fogging up the inside of
the windshield by automatically
sensing the moisture of inside the
windshield.
The auto defogging system operates
when the heater or air conditioning is
on.
Information 
The auto defogging system may not
operate normally, when the outside
temperature is below 50 °F (10 °C).

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
(Watts) with the vehicle in the ready
( ) mode.To prevent damage to the Power
Outlets :
 Use the power outlet only when
the vehicle is in the ready (  )
mode and remove the accessory
plug after use. Using the acces-
sory plug for prolonged periods
of time with the vehicle off could
cause the battery to discharge.
 Only use 12V electric acces- sories which are less than 180 W
(Watts) in electric capacity.
 Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operating
level when using the power outlet.
 Close the cover when not in use. (Continued)(Continued)
 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.
 Push the plug in as far as it will go. If good contact is not made,
the plug may overheat and the
fuse may open.
 Plug in battery equipped electri- cal/electronic devices with
reverse current protection. The
current from the battery may
flow into the vehicle's electrical/
electronic system and cause
system malfunction.
NOTICE
