Toque gauge
The torque gauge shows the real-
time torque value while driving when
SPORT mode is selected by press-
ing the DRIVE MODE button.
Power/Charge gauge
The Power/Charge gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehi-
cle and the charge/discharge status
of the regenerative brakes.

This portion of the gauge indicates
the amount of electrical power sup-
plied to the EV motor while driving.

This portion of the gauge indicates
the amount of charging to the EV
battery when regenerative braking is
applied.
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 your vehicle for long
distances on the highway or in rural
areas, make sure to check that the
State of Charge (SOC) is sufficient to
get to your destination and make
sure to map out useable charging
locations along your route.

Parking Brake & BrakeFluid Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When the POWER button is in the
ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds.
- It remains on if the parking brake is applied.
When the parking brake is applied.
When the brake fluid level in the reservoir is low.
- If the warning light remains illumi-nated when the parking brake is
released, check under the hood
to see if the fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir is low.
If the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the vehicle turned off, check the brake fluid level immediately
and add fluid as required (For more
details, refer to "Brake Fluid" in
chapter 7). After adding brake fluid,
check all brake components for fluid
leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found,
or if the warning light remains on, or
if the brakes do not operate proper-
ly, do not drive the vehicle. Have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal braking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual sys-
tems should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal
travel and greater pedal pressure is
required to stop the vehicle. Also, the vehicle will not stop in as
short a distance with only a portion
of the brake system working.
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
Driving the vehicle with a warn-
ing light ON is dangerous. If the
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light illuminates with
the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid
level is low.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

(TPMS)" in chapter 6.
Electronic ParkingBrake (EPB) WarningLight
This warning light illuminates:
When the POWER button is in the
ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3seconds and then goes off.
When there is a malfunction with the EPB.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB)
Warning Light may illuminate when
the Electronic Stability control (ESC)
Indicator Light comes on to indicate
that the ESC is not working properly
(This does not indicate malfunction of
the EPB).
AUTO HOLD IndicatorLight
This indicator light illuminates:
[White] When you activate the auto
hold system by pressing the AUTO
HOLD switch.
[Green] When you stop the vehicle completely by depressing the
brake pedal with the auto hold sys-
tem activated.
[Yellow] When there is a malfunc- tion with the auto hold system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
For more details, refer to "Auto
Hold" in chapter 5.
iSafe Stopping
The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors.
If you notice any vehicle insta-
bility, immediately take your
foot off the accelerator pedal,
apply the brakes gradually with
light force, and slowly move to
a safe position on the side of
the road.

The vehicle's power will be reduced
to minimize the energy consumption
of the high voltage battery. Charge
the battery immediately.

sensor cover is blocked.
The Rear Parking Distance
Warning (Reverse) system may
experience a malfunction when the
following occurs:
Driving on uneven road surfacessuch as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.

Check shift controls
The message appears on the LCD
display when there is problem with
the shift buttons.
Immediately have the vehicle inspect-
ed by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
Shift button held down
The message appears on the LCD
display when the shift button is con-
tinuously pressed or there is problem
with the button.
Make sure that there is no object
over the shift button. If the problem
persists, immediately have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer
Good Driving Practices
Never shift to P (Park) or N(Neutral) to any other position with
the accelerator pedal depressed.
Never shift to P (Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not shift to N (Neutral) when driving. Doing so may result in an
accident.
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Always apply the parking brake when leaving the vehicle. Do not
depend on placing the gear in P
(Park) to keep the vehicle from
moving.

The Smart Regeneration System
may not operate temporarily due
to:
Electrical interference
Modifying the suspension
Differences of tire abrasion ortire pressure
Installing different type of tires
NOTICE Vehicles moving in front of
you with frequent lane
changes may cause a delay in
the system's reaction or may
cause the system to react to a
vehicle actually in an adjacent
lane. Always drive cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.
The Smart Regeneration
System may not recognize
complex driving situations so
always pay attention to driv-
ing conditions and control
your vehicle speed.
When using the Smart
Regeneration System take the
following precautions:
If an emergency stop is nec-
essary, you must apply the
brakes.
Keep a safe distance accord-
ing to road conditions and
vehicle speed. If the vehicle-
to-vehicle distance is too
close and the brakes are sud-
denly applied, a serious colli-
sion may result.
Always maintain sufficient
braking distance and deceler-
ate your vehicle by applying
the brakes if necessary.
The Smart Regeneration
System cannot recognize a
stopped vehicle, pedestrians
or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously
to prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring.
