Lumbar support
(for driver's seat, if equipped)
The lumbar support can be adjusted
by pressing the lumbar support
switch.
Press the front portion of the switch
(1) to increase support or the rear
portion of the switch (2) to decrease

using the control switches located on
the outside of the seat cushion. Before
driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so that you can easily control
the steering wheel, foot pedals and
controls on the instrument panel.To prevent damage to the seats:
Always stop adjusting the seats
when the seat has moved as far
forward or rearward as possible.
Do not adjust the seats for longer than necessary when the
vehicle is turned off. This may
result in unnecessary battery
drain.
Do not operate two or more seats at the same time. This may
result in an electrical malfunc-
tion.
NOTICE
NEVER allow children in the
vehicle unattended. The power
seats are operable when the
vehicle is turned off.

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.
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light ( ) will
illuminate on the instrument
cluster. You may steer the vehi-
cle, but it will require increased
steering efforts. Take your vehi-
cle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked as soon as possible. When abnormality is detected in
the electric power steering sys-
tem, the steering assist function
will stop. At this time, the warn-
ing light turns on or blinks on
the cluster. The steering wheel
may become difficult to control
or operate. Have your vehicle
checked immediately, after mov-
ing the vehicle to a safe zone.
Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high immediately after placing the igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics are complet-
ed, the steering wheel effort will
return to its normal 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 driv-
ing speed. • When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperatures, abnor-
mal noise may occur. If the temper-
ature rises, the noise will disappear.
This is a normal condition.
• When an error is detected from the EPS, the steering effort assist func-
tion will not be activated.
Instrument cluster warning lights
may be on or the steering effort
may be high. If these symptoms
occur, drive the vehicle to a safe
area as soon as it is safe to do so.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.

Electric Power Steering(EPS) Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When you set the ignition switch
or the Engine Start/Stop button to
the ON position.
- The Electric Power SteeringWarning light illuminates for
about 3 seconds and then goes
off.
Whenever there is a malfunction with the EPS.

Driving with the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (MIL) on may
cause damage to the emission
control system which could affect
drivability and/or fuel economy. If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) illuminates, potential catalyt-
ic converter damage is possible
which could result in loss of
engine power.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possi-
ble.

improved visibility when visibility is
poor due to fog, rain or snow, etc.
Use the switch next to the headlamp
switch to turn the fog lamps ON and
OFF.
1. Turn on the parking lamp.
2. Turn the headlamp switch (1) tothe front fog lamp position.
3. To turn off the front fog lamp, turn the headlamp switch to the front
fog lamp position again or turn off
the parking lamp. When in operation, the fog lamps
consume large amounts of vehicle
electrical power. Only use the fog
lamps when visibility is poor.
Battery saver function
The purpose of this feature is to pre-
vent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lamp when the
driver turns the vehicle off and opens
the driver-side door.
With this feature, the parking lamps
will turn off automatically if the driver
parks on the side of road at night.
If necessary, to keep the lamps on
when the vehicle is turned off, perform
the following:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lamps OFF and
ON again using the headlamp
switch on the steering column.

Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect ABS
or standard brake system operation.
Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM)
The Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM) is a function of the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system. It
helps ensure the vehicle stays stable
when accelerating or braking sud-
denly on wet, slippery and rough
roads where traction over the four
tires can suddenly become uneven.
VSM operation
VSM ON condition
The VSM operates when:
The Electronic Stability Control(ESC) is on.
Vehicle speed is approximately above 13 mph (22 km/h) on curve
roads.
Vehicle speed is approximately above 6 mph (10 km/h) when the
vehicle is braking on a two surface
road.
✱ The two surface road is made of
surfaces which have different fric-
tion forces.
When operating
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may activate the
ESC, you may hear sounds from the
brakes, or feel a corresponding sen-
sation in the brake pedal. This is nor-
mal and it means your VSM is active.
Information
The VSM does not operate when:
• Driving on a banked road such as
gradient or incline.
• Driving rearward.
• ESC OFF indicator light is on.
• EPS (Electric Power Steering) warning light ( ) is on or blinks.
i
i
Take the following precautions
when using the Vehicle Stability
Management (VSM):
ALWAYS check the speed and
the distance to the vehicle
ahead. The VSM is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving prac-
tices.
Never drive too fast for the
road conditions. The VSM sys-
tem will not prevent acci-
dents. Excessive speed in bad
weather, slippery and uneven
roads can result in severe
accidents.
