For your safety, do not touch
high voltage cables, connec-
tors and package modules.
High voltage components are
orange in color.
Exposed cables or wires may
be visible inside or outside of
the vehicle. Never touch the
wires or cables, because an
electrical shock, an injury, or a
death may occur.
Any gas or electrolyte leakage
from your vehicle is not only
poisonous but also flammable.
Upon witnessing one of those,
open the windows, and remain
a safe distance from the vehi-
cle out of the road. Immediately
contact an authorized Hyundai
dealer and advise them that a
hybrid vehicle is involved.
If you need towing, refer to
"Towing" in the previous pages.

When the vehicle is severely
damaged, remain a safe dis-
tance of 50 feet (15 meter) or
more between your vehicle
and other vehicles/flamma-
bles.
WARNING
If a fire occurs :
Upon witnessing any sparks,
gases, flames, or fuel leakage of
your vehicle, immediately call
911 or contact an authorized
HYNDAI dealer. Also, advise
them that a hybrid vehicle is
involved.
WARNING
When a submersion in water
occurs:
When your vehicle is flooded in
water, a high-voltage battery
may cause shock or may catch
on fire. Thus, turn the hybrid
system OFF, take the key in
your possession and move to a
safe place. Never attempt phys-
ical contact with your flooded
vehicle. Immediately contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
advise them that a hybrid vehi-
cle is involved.

Starting the Vehicle
1. Carry the smart key or leave it
inside the vehicle.
2. Make sure the parking brake is
firmly applied.
3. Place the shift lever in P (Park).
With the shift lever in N (Neutral),
you cannot start the vehicle.
4. Depress the brake pedal.
5. Press the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton. If the hybrid system starts, the
" " indicator will come on.
Whether the engine is cold or
warm, it should be started without
depressing the accelerator.
After following the start proce-
dures, " " indicator on the
instrument cluster will turn on.
For more information, please
check Chapter 5.ECONOMICAL and SAFE OPERA-
TION of Hybrid system
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate and maintain a
steady cruising speed. Do not
make "jack-rabbit" starts. Do not
race between stoplights.
Avoid heavy traffic whenever pos-
sible. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from other vehicles so you
can avoid unnecessary braking.
This also reduces brake wear.
The regenerative brake generates
energy when the vehicle deceler-
ates.
When the hybrid battery power is
low, the hybrid system automatical-
ly recharges the hybrid battery.
When the engine is running with
the shift lever in N (Neutral), the
hybrid system cannot generate
electricity. The hybrid battery can-
not recharge with the shift lever in N
(Neutral).
Information
In the hybrid system, the engine auto-
matically runs and stops. When the
hybrid system operates, the " "
indicator is illuminated.
In the following situation, the engine
may operate automatically.
- When the engine is ready to run
- When the hybrid battery is being
charged
- Depending on the temperature con-
dition of the hybrid battery

When the Hybrid Vehicle Shuts
Off
When the high voltage battery is dis-
charged, when the 12-volt battery is
discharged, or when the fuel tank is
empty, the hybrid system may not
operate while driving. When the
Hybrid system does not operate, do
the followings:
1. Gradually reduce the vehicle
speed. Pull over your vehicle off
the road in a safe area.
2. Locate the shift lever in P (Park).
3. Turn ON the hazard warning flash-
ers.
4. Turn OFF the vehicle, and try to
start the hybrid system again,
while depressing the brake pedal
and turning on the Engine
Start/Stop button.5. When the hybrid system still does
not operate, refer to ''If the 12 Volt
Battery Is Discharged'' in chapter 6.
Before jump-starting the vehicle,
check the fuel level and the exact
procedure to jump start. For fur-
ther details, refer to ''If the 12 Volt
Battery Is Discharged'' in the
chapter 6. When the fuel level is
low, do not attempt to drive the
vehicle only with the battery
power. The high voltage battery
may be discharged, and the hybrid
system will turn OFF. When a submersion in water
occurs:
When your vehicle is flooded in
water, a high-voltage battery
may cause shock or fires. Thus,
turn the hybrid system OFF, take
the key in your possession and
escape to a safe place. Never
attempt physical contact with
your flooded vehicle.
Immediately contact an emer-
gency response team and
advise them that a hybrid vehi-
cle is involved.
