Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check inand around the engine compart-
ment to ensure the following:
- Any tools or other loose objects are removed from the engine
room area or hood opening area
- All glove, rags, or other com- bustible material is removed
from the engine compartment
- All filler caps are tightly and cor- rectly installed
2. Lower the hood halfway (lifted approximately 12 inches (30 cm)
from the closed position) and push
down to securely lock in place.
Then double check to be sure the
hood is secure. If the hood can be
raised slightly, it is not securely
locked. Open it again and close it
with more force.
Liftgate
Opening the liftgate
Before attempting to open the lift-
gate, make sure the vehicle is in
PARK (P). To open the liftgate, per-
form the following:
1. Unlock all doors with the Door
Unlock button on your remote key
or smart key. Press the liftgate
handle button and open the lift-
gate.
2. Press and hold the Liftgate Unlock button on the remote key or smart
key. Press the liftgate handle but-
ton and open the liftgate.
3. With the Smart Key in your pos- session, press the liftgate handle
button and open the liftgate.
Before closing the hood,
ensure all obstructions are
removed from around the
hood opening.
Always double check to be
sure that the hood is firmly
latched before driving away.
Check there is no hood open
warning light or message dis-
played on the instrument clus-
ter. Driving with the hood
opened may cause a total loss
of visibility, which might
result in an accident.
Do not move the vehicle with
the hood in the raised posi-
tion, as vision is obstructed,
which might result in an acci-
dent, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
WARNING The support rod must be insert-
ed completely into the hole pro-
vided whenever you inspect the
engine compartment. This will
prevent the hood from becom-
ing dislodged and falling and
causing potential injury.

Information
Make sure to refuel your vehicle
according to the "Fuel Requirements"
suggested in the Introduction chapter.
Do not spill fuel on the exteriorsurfaces of the vehicle. Any type
of fuel spilled on painted sur-
faces may damage the paint.
If the fuel filler cap requires replacement, use only a genuine
HYUNDAI cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An
incorrect fuel filler cap can
result in a serious malfunction
of the fuel system or emission
control system.
NOTICE
iDo not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
gasoline spillage.
If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station and then contact the
local fire department. Follow
any safety instructions they
provide.
If pressurized fuel sprays out,
it can cover your clothes or
skin and thus subject you to
the risk of fire and burns.
Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap
is venting fuel or if you hear a
hissing sound, wait until the
condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.
Once refueling has begun,
contact between your bare
hand and the vehicle should
be maintained until the filling
is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
When refueling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park)
position (for automatic trans-
mission/dual clutch transmis-
sion) or first gear or R
(Reverse, for manual trans-
mission), set the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch to the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. Sparks produced by
electrical components related
to the engine can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire.
Do not use matches or a
lighter and do not smoke or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station,
especially during refueling.

Gauges and Meters
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the
speed of the vehicle and is calibrated
in miles per hour (MPH) and/or kilo-
meters per hour (km/h).
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the
approximate number of engine revo-
lutions per minute (rpm).
Use the tachometer to select the cor-
rect shift points and to prevent lug-
ging and/or over-revving the engine.
Do not operate the engine within
the tachometer's RED ZONE. This
may cause severe engine damage.
Engine coolant temperaturegauge
This gauge indicates the tempera-
ture of the engine coolant when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
If the gauge pointer moves
beyond the normal range area
toward the "H" position, it indi-
cates overheating that may dam-
age the engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to "If the Engine
Overheats" in chapter 6.

Fuel gauge
This gauge indicates the approxi-
mate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.
Information
• The fuel tank capacity is given inchapter 8.
• The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
• On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier
than usual due to the movement of
fuel in the tank. Avoid driving with an extremely
low fuel level. Running out of fuel
could cause the engine to misfire
damaging the catalytic converter.
NOTICE
i
Never remove the radiator cap or
reservoir cap when the engine is
hot. The engine coolant is under
pressure and could severely
burn. Wait until the engine is cool
before adding coolant to the
reservoir.
WARNING
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain addi-
tional fuel as soon as possible
after the warning light comes
on or when the gauge indicator
comes close to the "E (Empty)"
level.

Parking Brake & BrakeFluid Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When you place the ignition switch
to the ON position.
- The parking brake light illumi- nates for about 3 seconds and
will then turn off once the parking
brake is released.
Whenever the parking brake is applied.
Whenever the brake fluid level in the reservoir is low.
- If the warning light illuminateswith the parking brake released, it
indicates the brake fluid level in
the 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 engine stopped, 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 properly, 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.
If the brakes fail while you are driv-
ing, shift to a lower gear for addition-
al engine braking and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
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.
In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
