Hybrid Vehicle
The HYUNDAI Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both the petrol engine and the electric motor for power. The electric
motor is run by a 270V high-voltage HEV battery.
Depending on the driving conditions, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and the electric motor
or even both at the same time.
Fuel efficiency increases when the engine is at idle, or when the vehicle is driven by the electric motor with the HEV bat-
tery.
The HEV battery charge must be maintained, so at times the engine will come on even at idle to act as a generator.
Charging also occurs when decelerating or by regenerative braking.

Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle
The HYUNDAI Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) shares the characteristics of both a conventional hybrid elec-
tric vehicle and an all-electric vehicle.
When used as a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, the HEV computer selectively operates between the engine and
the electric motor or even both at the same time.
When it is operating in the electric vehicle mode, the vehicle is driven only using the electric motor over a certain dis-
tance until the hybrid battery becomes low. The driving distance in EV mode depends on customer driving style and
road conditions. Aggressive driving manoeuvres may at times temporarily enable the engine to operate for maximum
power.
The hybrid battery can be fully charged by connecting a plug to an external electric power source.

Starting the Vehicle
Vehicles with remote key system
1.Make sure the parking brake isapplied.
2.Make sure the shift lever is in P (Park).
3.Depress the brake pedal.
4.Turn the ignition swich to the START position. Hold the key
(maximum of 10 senconds) until
the " " comes on and release it.
Whether the engine is cold or
warm, it should be started without
depressing the accelerator.
After following the start proce-
dures, “ ” indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn on.
For more information, please check
Chapter 5.
Vehicles with smart key system
1.Carry the smart key or leave it inside the vehicle.
2.Make sure the parking brake is firmly applied.
3.Place the shift lever in P (Park). With the shift lever in N (Neutral),
you cannot start the vehicle.
4.Depress the brake pedal.
5.Press the Engine Start/Stop but- ton. If the hybrid system starts, the
" " indicator will come on.
Whether the engine is cold or
warm, it should be started without
depressing the accelerator.
After following the start proce-
dures, “ ” indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn on.
For more information, please check
Chapter 5. ECONOMICAL and SAFE OPERA-
TION of Hybrid system
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate and maintain a
steady cruising speed. Do not
make "jack-rabbit" starts. Do not
race between stoplights.
Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-
sible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you
can avoid unnecessary braking.
This also reduces brake wear out.
The regenerative brake generates energy when the vehicle deceler-
ates.
When the hybrid battery power is low, the hybrid system automatical-
ly recharges the hybrid battery.
When the engine run with the shift lever in N (Neutral), the hybrid sys-
tem cannot generate electricity. The
hybrid battery cannot recharge with
the shift lever in N (Neutral).

Information
In the hybrid system, the engine auto-
matically runs and stops. When the
hybrid system operates, the " "
indicator is illuminated.
In the following situation, the engine
may operate automatically.
- When the engine is ready to run
- When the hybrid battery is beingcharged
- Depending on the temperature con- dition of the hybrid battery
Special Features
Hybrid vehicles sound different than
petrol engine vehicles. When the
hybrid system operates, you may
hear a sound from the hybrid battery
system behind the rear seat. If you
apply the accelerator pedal rapidly,
you may hear an unconventional
sound. When you apply the brake
pedal, you may hear a sound from
the regenerative brake system.
When the hybrid system is turned off
or on, you may hear a sound in the
engine compartment. If you depress
the brake pedal repeatedly when the
hybrid system is turned on, you may
hear a sound in the engine compart-
ment. None of these sounds indicate
a problem. These are normal charac-
teristics of hybrid vehicles.
If any of following occur, it's a normal
condition if you hear a motor sound
in the engine compartment:
- After turning off the hybrid system,the brake pedal is released.
- When the hybrid system is turned off, the brake pedal is applied.
- When the driver door is opened. When the hybrid system is turned
ON, the engine may run or may not.
In this situation, you may feel a vibra-
tion. This does not indicate a mal-
function. When the “ ” indicator
illuminates, the hybrid system is ready
to start. Even if the engine is off, you
can operate the vehicle as long as the
“ ” indicator is illuminated.
The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High volt-
age components, such as cables
and other parts, may emit electro-
magnetic waves. Even when the
electromagnetic cover blocks elec-
tromagnetic emissions, electro-
magnetic waves may have an effect
on electronic devices. When your
vehicle is not for a long period of
time, the hybrid system will dis-
charge. You need to drive the vehi-
cle several times a month. We rec-
ommend driving at least for 1 hour
or 16 km. When the hybrid battery is
discharged, or when it is impossi-
ble to jump start the vehicle, con-
tact your HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.

Virtual Engine Sound System(VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sound for pedestri-
ans to hear vehicle sound because
there is limited sound whilst motor
power is used.
The VESS may be turned ON or
OFF by pressing the VESS button.
(if equipped)
If the vehicle is moving at low speed, the VESS will operate.
When the gear is shifted to R (Reverse), an additional warning
sound will be heard.
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
- 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 auto- matically charged when the vehicle
is in the ready ( ) mode.
Plug-in hybrid vehicle - The vehicle is composed of ahighvoltage 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 (Parking), the “ ” indica-
tor illuminates on the instru-
ment cluster. The driver can
drive the vehicle, even when
the engine is stopped.
When you leave the vehicle,
you should turn OFF the
hybrid system or locate the
shift lever in P (Park). When
you depress the accelerator
pedal by mistake, or when the
shift lever is not in P (Park),
the vehicle will abruptly move,
possibly resulting in serious
injury or death.
