What to do in an emergency
6
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 ResetSwitch
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.

Virtual Engine Sound System(VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sounds for pedes-
trians to hear vehicle sound because
there is limited sound while electric
power is used.
What Does RegenerativeBraking 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 vehicle
- The vehicle is composed of ahigh 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 automatically charged when the
vehicle is in the ready ( )
mode.
Plug-in hybrid vehicle - The vehicle is composed of ahigh voltage 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.
When you start the hybrid
system with the shift lever in
P (Park), the " " indicator
illuminates on the instrument
cluster. The driver can drive
the vehicle, even when the
gasoline engine is off.
When you leave the vehicle,
you should turn OFF the vehi-
cle and place the shift lever in
P (Park). If you depress the
accelerator pedal by mistake,
or when the shift lever is not in
P (Park), the vehicle will
abruptly move, possibly result-
ing in serious injury or death.
WARNING

H51
The cooling duct cools down the
high-voltage battery. When the high-
voltage battery cooling duct is
blocked, the high-voltage battery
may be overheated and the vehicle
performance may become limited
and set a hybrid warning lamp. Do
not obstruct the cooling duct with any
other objects.
Information
Clean the cooling duct for the hybrid
battery with a dry cloth on a regular
basis.
i
(Continued)
Do not put any objects into
the cooling duct of the hybrid
battery. Doing so may cause
loss of cooling duct volume to
the hybrid battery. When the
cooling duct is blocked with
any objects, immediately con-
tact your HYUNDAI dealer.
Never place a container of liq-
uid on or near the cooling
duct. If the liquid spills, the
hybrid battery located in the
luggage compartment may be
damaged.
Secure all loads in the luggage
compartment to prevent them
from being tossed about
before driving. If a sharp or
heavy load impacts or pierces
the interior luggage compart-
ment wall, the hybrid battery
system may be damaged, dete-
riorating its performance.
Never clean the cooling duct
of the hybrid battery with a
wet cloth. If any water enters
in the cooling duct of the
hybrid battery, the hybrid bat-
tery may cause an electric
shock, serious damage, injury
or death.
The hybrid battery is com-
posed of lithium-ion polymer.
If the hybrid battery is improp-
erly handled, it is dangerous
to the environment. Also it
may cause electrical shock
and severe burns, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Do not spill liquid over the
cooling duct of the hybrid bat-
tery. Doing so is very danger-
ous. It may cause electric
shock or serious injury.
Do not cover the cooling duct
with objects.(Continued)
