The child safety lock is provided to
help prevent children seated in the

rear doors. The rear door safety locks
should be used whenever children
are in the vehicle.

small flat blade tool (like a screwdriv-
er or similar) (1) into the slot and turn
it to the lock position as shown.

of injuries or danger to life. Do
not lock the vehicle from the
outside when someone is in the
vehicle.

Convenient features of your vehicle
To allow a rear door to be opened
from inside the vehicle, unlock the
child safety lock. This system helps to protect your vehi-
cle and valuables. The horn will sound
and the hazard warning lights will blink
continuously if any of the following
occur:
- A door is opened without using the
remote key or smart key.
- The liftgate is opened without using the remote key or smart key.
- The engine hood is opened.
The alarm continues for 30 seconds,
then the system resets. To turn off the
alarm, unlock the doors with the
remote key or smart key.
The Theft Alarm System automatically
sets 30 seconds after you lock the
doors and the liftgate. For the system
to activate, you must lock the doors
and the liftgate from outside the vehi-
cle with the remote key or smart key or
by pressing the button on the outside
of the door handle with the smart key
in your possession.
The hazard warning lights will blink
and the chime will sound once to indi-
cate the system is armed.
Once the security system is set, open-
ing any door, the liftgate, or the hood
without using the remote key or smart
key will cause the alarm to activate. The Theft Alarm System will not set if
the hood, the liftgate, or any door is
not fully closed. If the system will not
set, check the hood, the liftgate, or the
doors are fully closed.
Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it.
Information
• Do not lock the doors until all pas-
sengers have left the vehicle. If the
remaining passenger leaves the
vehicle when the system is armed,
the alarm will be activated.
• If the vehicle is not disarmed with the remote key or smart key, open the
doors by using the mechanical key
and place the ignition switch in the
ON position (for remote key) or start
the engine (for smart key) by direct-
ly pressing the ignition switch with
the smart key.
• If the system is disarmed by unlock- ing the vehicle, but neither a door or
the liftgate is opened within 30 sec-
onds, the doors will relock and the
system will rearm automatically.

Electric Power Steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the vehicle 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 igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics are complet-
ed, the steering wheel effort will
return to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is
in the ON or LOCK/OFF position. • Motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at a stop or at a low driv-
ing speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel in low temperatures, abnor-
mal noise may occur. If the temper-
ature rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
• When an error is detected from the EPS, the steering effort assist func-
tion will not be activated in order to
help prevent fatal accidents.
Instrument cluster warning lights
may be on or the steering effort may
be high. If these symptoms occur,
drive the vehicle to a safe area as
soon as it is safe to do so. Have the
system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
i
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light ( )
will illuminate on the instru-
ment cluster. You may steer
the vehicle, but it will require
increased steering efforts.
Take your vehicle to an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer
and have the system checked
as soon as possible.
When abnormality is detected
in the electric power steering
system, to prevent an acci-
dent, the steering assist func-
tion will stop. At this time, the
warning light turns on or
blinks on the cluster. The
steering wheel may become
difficult to control or operate.
Have your vehicle checked
immediately, after moving the
vehicle to a safe zone.
CAUTION

nism do not completely mesh. If this
occurs, pull down on the lock-release
lever, readjust the steering wheel again,
and then pull back up on the release
lever to lock the steering wheel in place.

Inside Rearview Mirror
Before driving your vehicle, check to
see that your inside rearview mirror
is properly positioned. Adjust the
rearview mirror so that the view
through the rear window is properly
centered.When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do
not spray glass cleaner directly on
the mirror as this may cause the
liquid cleaner to enter the mirror
housing.

[A] : Day, [B] : Night
Make this adjustment before you
start driving and while the day/night
lever is in the day position.
Pull the day/night lever towards you
to reduce glare from the headlights
of the vehicles behind you during
night driving.
Remember that you lose some
rearview clarity in the night position.

Make sure your line of sight is
not obstructed. Do not place
objects in the rear seat, cargo
area, or behind the rear head-
rests which could interfere with
your vision through the rear
window.

an accident or deployment of
the air bag, do not modify the
rearview mirror and do not
install a wide mirror.

Side View Mirrors
Make sure to adjust the side view
mirrors to your desired position
before you begin driving.
Your vehicle is equipped with both
left-hand and right-hand side view
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted
remotely with the remote switch. The
side view mirrors can be folded to
help prevent damage when going
through an automatic car wash or
when passing through a narrow
street.
The right side view mirror is convex.
Objects seen in the mirror are closer
than they appear.Use the inside rear view mirror or
look back directly to determine the
actual distance of other vehicles
prior to changing lanes.
Do not scrape ice off the mirror
face; this may damage the sur-
face of the glass.
If the mirror is jammed with ice, do not adjust the mirror by
force. Use an approved spray
de-icer (not radiator antifreeze)
spray, or a sponge or soft cloth
with very warm water, or move
the vehicle to a warm place and
allow the ice to melt.
