 The air v entilation seats  def aults

 Auto Comfort Control (for driver's seat) (if equipped)
- The air ventilation seats auto-matically controls the seat tem-
perature depending on the ambi-
ent temperature and the set cli-
mate control temperature when
the engine is running. If the air
ventilation seats switch is
pushed, the air ventilation seats
will have to be controlled manu-
ally.
To use this function, it must be activated from the Settings menu
in the AV/AVN system screen. - The air ventilation seats defaults
to the OFF position whenever
the ignition switch is ON.
However, if the Auto Comfort
Control function is ON, the air
ventilation seats will turn on and
off depending on the ambient
temperature and the set climate
control temperature.
For more details, refer to the sep-
arately supplied Multimedia manu-
al with your vehicle.
To prevent damage to the air ven-
tilation seat:
 Use the air ventilation seat ONLY when the climate control system
is on. Using the  air ventilation
seat for prolonged periods of
time with the climate control
system off could cause the air
ventilation seat to malfunction.
 Never use a solvent such as paint thinner, benzene, alcohol
or gasoline to clean the seats.  Avoid spilling liquids on the sur-
face of the front seats and seat-
backs; this may cause the air
vent holes to become blocked
and not work properly.
 Do not place materials such as plastic bags or newspapers
under the seats. They may block
the air intake causing the air
vents to not work properly.
 Do not change the seat covers. It may damage the air ventilation
seat.
 If the air vents do not operate, restart the vehicle. If there is no
change, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Safe Exit Assist (SEA) System
(if equipped)
1. The Safe Exit Assist system is pro-vided to help prevent the passen-
gers from opening a door by warning
the passengers when an approach-
ing vehicle from the rear area is
detected after the vehicle stops.
2. When an approaching vehicle from the rear area is detected
after the vehicle stops, the rear
door does not unlock even when
the driver tries to unlock the rear
door using the Electronic child
safety lock button. The "Check
surroundings then try again"
warning message appears on the
cluster and a warning sounds. However if you press the switch
within 10 seconds after the warn-
ing message appears (the indica-
tor on the switch will turn off), the
system judges that the driver
unlocked the door acknowledging
the rear status and released
regardless of the rear status.
3. When an approaching vehicle from the rear is detected the
moment the door is opened, the
"Watch for traffic" warning mes-
sage appears on the cluster and a
warning sounds.

mately 10 minutes after the ignition
key is removed or turned to the
