Safety system of your vehicle
Each time you push the switch, the
temperature setting of the seat is
changed as follows :
The seat warmer defaults to the OFF
position whenever the Engine Start/
Stop button is placed in the ON posi-
tion.
Information
With the seat warmer switch in the
ON position, the heating system in the
seat turns off or on automatically
depending on the seat temperature.
Battery Cooling Duct
The high voltage battery cooling duct
is located on the left side of the rear
seats. The cooling duct cools down
the high voltage battery.When the high voltage battery cool-
ing duct is blocked, the high voltage
battery may be overheated. Do not
obstruct the cooling duct with any
other objects.

Switching to Hybrid mode to
allow heating or air condition-
ing (Plug-in hybrid vehicle)
This message is displayed when the
vehicle automatically switches to
HEV mode to allow heating or air
conditioning. It is when the coolant
temperature is low (below 7 °F (-14
°C)) and the driver turns on the heat-
ing or cooling system.
If the coolant temperature gets high-
er than 7 °F (-14 °C) or the driver
turns off the heating or cooling sys-
tem the vehicle returns to its default
(EV) mode.
Maintaining Hybrid mode to
continue heating or air condi-
tioning (Plug-in hybrid vehicle)
This message is displayed when the
vehicle maintains the HEV mode to
allow heating or air conditioning. The
mode does not change when the
driver presses the [HEV] button to
switch from the HEV mode to EV
mode while the heating and cooling
system is on and the coolant temper-
ature is below 7 °F (-14 °C).
Low/High System Temp.
Maintaining Hybrid mode
(Plug-in hybrid vehicle)
This message is displayed when the
temperature of the high-voltage
(hybrid) battery is too low or too high.
This warning message is to protect
the battery and the hybrid system.

- When using tire chains:
Wrong size chains or improperly
installed chains can damage
your vehicle's brake lines, sus-
pension, body and wheels.
Use SAE "S" class or wire
chains.
If you hear noise caused by
chains contacting the body,
retighten the chain to prevent
contact with the vehicle body.
To prevent body damage,
retighten the chains after driving
0.3~0.6 miles (0.5~1.0 km).
Do not use tire chains on vehi-
cles equipped with aluminum
wheels. If unavoidable, use a
wire type chain.
Use wire chains less than 0.47
inch (12 mm) wide to prevent
damage to the chain's connec-
tion.
Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because
it helps prevent corrosion in the cool-
ing system, lubricates the water
pump and prevents freezing. Be sure
to replace or replenish your coolant
in accordance with the maintenance
schedule in chapter 7. Before winter,
have your coolant tested to assure
that its freezing point is sufficient for
the temperatures anticipated during
the winter.
Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some climates it is recommended
that a lower viscosity "winter weight"
oil be used during cold weather. See
chapter 8 for recommendations. If
you aren't sure what weight oil you
should use, consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on
the battery system. Visually inspect
the battery and cables as described
in chapter 7. The level of charge in
your battery can be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a
service station.

Maintenance
Information
The engine coolant and/or inverter
coolant level is influenced by the
hybrid system temperature. Before
checking or refilling the engine
coolant and/or inverter coolant, turn
the hybrid vehicle off.

■Engine coolant cap
■Inverter coolant cap
Never remove the
engine coolant cap
and/or inverter coolant
cap or the drain plug
while the engine and
radiator are hot. Hot coolant and
steam may blow out under pres-
sure, causing serious injury.
Turn the hybrid system off and
wait until the engine cools
down. Use extreme care when
removing the engine coolant
cap and/or inverter coolant cap.
Wrap a thick towel around it,
and turn it counterclockwise
slowly to the first stop. Step
back while the pressure is
released from the cooling sys-
tem. When you are sure all the
pressure has been released,
press down on the cap, using a
thick towel, and continue turn-
ing counterclockwise to remove
it.
WARNING
The electric motor for
the cooling fan may
continue to operate
or start up when the
engine is not running
and can cause serious injury.
Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the rotating fan
blades of the cooling fan.
Always turn off the engine
unless the vehicle has to be
inspected with the engine on.
Be cautious as the cooling fan
may operate if the negative (-)
battery terminal is not discon-
nected.

High Voltage Battery Cooling
Duct
The high-voltage battery cooling duct
is located on the left side of the rear
seats.The cooling duct cools down the
high-voltage battery. When the high-
voltage battery cooling duct is
blocked, the high-voltage battery
may be overheated and the vehicle
performance may become limited
and set a hybrid warning lamp. Do
not obstruct the cooling duct with any
other objects.

■Hybrid vehicle
OAEPH036024
■Plug-in hybrid vehicle
Never clean the cooling duct
of the hybrid battery with a
wet cloth. If any water enters
in the cooling duct of the
hybrid battery, the hybrid bat-
tery may cause an electric
shock, serious damage, injury
or death.
The hybrid battery is com-
posed of lithium-ion polymer.
If the hybrid battery is improp-
erly handled, it is dangerous
to the environment. Also it
may cause electrical shock
and severe burns, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Do not spill liquid over the
cooling duct of the hybrid bat-
tery. Doing so is very danger-
ous. It may cause electric
shock or serious injury.
Do not cover the cooling duct
with objects.
