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 trunk 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 trunk. For the system to
activate, you must lock the doors and
the trunk from outside the vehicle 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 trunk, 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 trunk, or any door is not
fully closed. If the system will not set,
check the hood, the trunk, 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 trunk 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 ignition
switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system performs
the EPS system diagnostics. When
the diagnostics are completed, the
steering wheel will return to its nor-
mal 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 driving
speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel
in low temperatures, abnormal noise
may occur. If the temperature rises,
the noise will disappear. This is a nor-
mal condition.
(Continued)(Continued)
• When an error is detected from the
EPS, the steering effort assist func-
tion will not be activated in order to
prevent fatal accidents. Instrument
cluster warning lights may be on or
the steering effort may be high. When
the following symptoms occur, imme-
diately drive the vehicle to a safe area
and check it.
Tilt Steering / Telescope
Steering (if equipped)
Adjust the steering wheel so it points
toward your chest, not toward your
face. Make sure you can see the
instrument cluster warning lights and
gauges. After adjusting, push the
steering wheel both up and down to
be certain it is locked in position.
Always adjust the position of the
steering wheel before driving.To change the steering wheel angle
and height:
1. Pull down the lock-release lever (1).
2. Adjust the steering wheel to the
desired angle (2) and distance for-
ward/back (3).
3. Pull up the lock-release lever to
lock the steering wheel in place.
Information
After adjustment, sometimes the lock
release lever may not lock the steering
wheel. It is not a malfunction. This
occurs when two gears are not
engaged correctly. In this case, adjust
the steering wheel again and then lock
the steering wheel.

ically controls the glare from the

level around the vehicle, and auto-
matically adjusts to control the head-
lamp glare from vehicles behind you.

Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System (if equipped)
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System can replace up to three
hand-held radio-frequency (RF)
transmitters with a single built-in
device. This innovative feature will
learn the radio frequency codes of
most current transmitters to operate
devices such as gate operators,
garage door openers, entry door
locks, security systems, even home
lighting. Both standard and rolling
code-equipped transmitters can be
programmed by following the out-
lined procedures.
Additional HomeLink
®information
can be found at: www.homelink.com
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the
RF device you are programming for
use in other vehicles as well as for
future HomeLink
®programming. It is
also suggested that upon the sale of
the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®buttons be erased for
security purposes.
