Child-protector rear door locks
The child safety lock is provided to
help prevent children seated in the
rear seat from accidentally opening
the rear doors. The rear door safety
locks should be used whenever chil-
dren are in the vehicle.
The child safety lock is located on
the edge of each rear door. When the
child safety lock is in the lock position
(1), the rear door will not open if the
inner door handle (2) is pulled.To lock the child safety lock, insert a
key (or screwdriver) into the hole and
turn it to the lock position.

the vehicle. The rear door safety
locks should always be used
whenever children are in the
vehicle.

will blink continuously if any of the
following occur:
- A door is opened without using the

or smart key will cause the alarm to
activate.
The Theft Alarm System will not set if
the bonnet, the tailgate, or any door

Electric power steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is off or if
the power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Also, the steering effort becomes
heavier as the vehicle’s speed
increases and becomes lighter as
the vehicle’s speed decreases for
better control of the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.If the Electric Power Steering
(EPS) System does not operate
normally, the warning light ( )
will illuminate on the instrument
cluster. The steering wheel may
become difficult to control or
operate. Take your vehicle to an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked as soon
as possible.
Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the igni-
tion switch or the Engine Start/Stop
button in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics are complet-
ed, the steering wheel will return to
its normal condition.• A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after the ignition switch is
placed to the ON or LOCK/OFF
position (Without Smart key sys-
tem).
A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after the Engine
Start/Stop button is placed in the
ON or OFF position. (With Smart
key system)
• 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, the
steering effort may be high and
abnormal noise may occur. If the
temperature rises, the noise will dis-
appear. This is a normal condition.
• When the vehicle is stationary, if
you turn the steering wheel all the
way to the left or right continuously,
the steering wheel effort increases.
This is not a system malfunction. As
time passes, the steering wheel
effort will return to its normal con-
dition.
