INSTRUMENT PANEL OVERVIEW

Seats & Safety System3-18
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the air ventilation
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 surface
of the front seats and seatbacks;
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.

You can start the vehicle without
inserting the key.
For information, refer to the “Engine
Start/Stop Button” section in chapter 6.
NOTICE
To prevent damaging the smart key:
• Keep the smart key in a cool,
dry place to avoid damage or
malfunction. Exposure to moisture
or high temperature may cause
the internal circuit of the smart key
to malfunction which may not be
covered under warranty.
• Avoid dropping or throwing the
smart key.
• Protect the smart key from extreme
temperatures.
Remote start
You can start the vehicle using the
Remote Start button (7) of the smart key.
To start the vehicle remotely:
• Lock the doors by pressing the door
lock button within 32 feet (10 m)
distance from the vehicle.
• Press the remote start button for over 2 seconds within 4 seconds after
locking the doors and the hazard
warning will blink.
To turn off the remote start function, press
the remote start button once. In case of
the manual operation, the climate control
system will be maintained even when
the engine is turned OFF. However, the
automatic operation is set to 72°F (22°C).
Remote smart parking assist (RSPA)
(if equipped)
The Remote smart parking assist (RSPA)
system helps the drivers park their
vehicle by using sensors to measure
parking spaces and control the steering
wheel, gear shift and vehicle speed to
semi-automatically park the vehicle.
With the smart key, the driver can move
the vehicle forward or backward using
the rearward /forward buttons (5, 6) on
the smart key.
For information, refer to “Remote smart
parking assist (RSPA)” in this chapter.

Power Windows
The ignition switch must be in the
ON position to be able to raise or
lower the windows. Each door has a
Power Window switch to control that
door’s window. The driver has a Power
Window Lock switch which can block
the operation of passenger windows.
The power windows will operate for
approximately 30 seconds after the
ignition switch is placed in the ACC or
LOCK/OFF position. However, if the front
doors are opened, the Power Windows
will not operate even within the 30
second period.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death, do not
extend your head, arms or body outside
the windows while driving.
Information
• In cold and wet climates, power
windows may not work properly due to
freezing conditions.
• While driving with the rear windows
down or with the sunroof (if equipped)
opened (or partially opened), your
vehicle may demonstrate a wind
buffeting or pulsation noise. This
noise is normal and can be reduced
or eliminated by taking the following
actions. If the noise occurs with one
or both of the rear windows down,
partially lower both front windows
approximately one inch. If you
experience the noise with the sunroof
open, slightly close the sunroof.

PANORAMIC SUNROOF (IF EQUIPPED)
If your vehicle is equipped with a
sunroof, you can slide or tilt your sunroof
with the sunroof control switch located
on the overhead console.
ODN8A059035ODN8A059035
The sunroof can only be opened, closed,
or tilted when the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
The sunroof is operable for 30 seconds,
after the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF or ACC position. However, if the
front doors are opened, the sunroof
cannot be operated even within 30
seconds.
Information
• In cold and wet climates, the sunroof
may not work properly due to freezing
conditions.
• After the vehicle is washed or in a
rainstorm, be sure to wipe off any
water that is on the sunroof before
operating it.
WARNING
• Never adjust the sunroof or sunshade
while driving. This could result in
loss of control and an accident that
may cause death, serious injury, or
property damage.
• Make sure heads, hands, arms or
any other body parts or objects are
out of the way before operating the
sunroof.
• Do not extend your head, arms or
body outside the sunroof while
driving, to avoid serious injury.
• Do not leave the engine running
and the key in your vehicle with
unsupervised children. Unattended
children could operate the sunroof,
which could result in serious injury.
• Do not sit on the top of the vehicle. It
may cause injury or vehicle damage.
NOTICE
• Do not continue to move the sunroof
control lever after the sunroof is fully
opened, closed, or tilted. Damage
to the motor or system components
could occur.
• Make sure the sunroof is closed fully
when leaving your vehicle.
If the sunroof is left open, rain or
snow may wet the interior of the
vehicle. Also, leaving the sunroof
open when the vehicle is unattended
may invite theft.
