Use only the bulbs of the specified
wattage.
The headlamp and tail lamp lens-
es could appear frosty if the vehi-
cle is washed after driving or the
vehicle is driven at night in wet
weather. This condition is caused
by temperature difference
between the lamp inside and out-
side and, it does not indicate a
problem with your vehicle.When moisture condenses in the
lamp, it will be removed after driv-
ing with the headlamp on. The
removable level may differ
depending on lamp size, lamp
position and environmental condi-
tion. However, if moisture is not
removed, we recommend that
your vehicle is inspected by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
Information - Headlamp des-
iccant
(if equipped)
This vehicle is equipped with desic-
cant to reduce fogging inside the head-
lamp due to moisture.
The desiccant is consumable and its
performance may change based on the
used period or environment. If fog-
ging inside the headlamp due to mois-
ture continues for a long time, we rec-
ommend that you consult an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer.i
NOTICEBe sure to replace the burned-
out bulb with one of the same
wattage rating. Otherwise, it
may cause damage to the fuse
or electric wiring system.
CAUTION
If you don’t have necessary
tools, the correct bulbs and the
expertise, consult an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer. In many
cases, it is difficult to replace
vehicle light bulbs because
other parts of the vehicle must
be removed before you can get
to the bulb. This is especially
true if you have to remove the
headlamp assembly to get to
the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the head-
lamp assembly can result in
damage to the vehicle.
CAUTION
Working on the lights
Prior to working on the light,
firmly apply the parking brake,
ensure that the Engine
Start/Stop button is turned to
the OFF position and turn off
the lights to avoid sudden
movement of the vehicle and
burning your fingers or receiv-
ing an electric shock.

Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warning
and caution statements that appear
on the label.
Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle’s finish
from rust and deterioration, wash it
thoroughly and frequently at least
once a month with lukewarm or cold
water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road
driving, you should wash it after each
off-road trip. Pay special attention to
the removal of any accumulation of
salt, dirt, mud, and other foreign
materials. Make sure the drain holes
in the lower edges of the doors and
rocker panels are kept clear and
clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollution and similar
deposits can damage your vehicle’s
finish if not removed immediately.Even prompt washing with plain
water may not completely remove all
these deposits.
A mild soap, safe for use on painted
surfaces, may be used.
After washing, rinse the vehicle thor-
oughly with lukewarm or cold water.
Do not allow soap to dry on the fin-
ish.
Do not use strong soap,
chemical detergents or hot
water, and do not wash the
vehicle in direct sunlight or
when the body of the vehicle
is warm.
Be careful when washing the
side windows of your vehicle.
Especially, with high-pressure
water, water may leak through
the windows and wet the inte-
rior.
To prevent damage to the
plastic parts and lamps, do
not clean with chemical sol-
vents or strong detergents.
CAUTION
Wet brakes
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes whilst driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly whilst
maintaining a slow forward
speed.

Maintenance
Bright-metal maintenance
To remove road tar and insects,
use a tar remover, not a scraper or
other sharp object.
To protect the surfaces of bright-
metal parts from corrosion, apply a
coating of wax or chrome preser-
vative and rub to a high luster.
During winter weather or in coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive petroleum
jelly or other protective compound.
Underbody maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and
snow removal and dust control may
collect on the underbody. If these
materials are not removed, acceler-
ated rusting can occur on underbody
parts such as the fuel lines, frame,
floor pan and exhaust system, even
though they have been treated with
rust protection.Thoroughly flush the vehicle under-
body and wheel openings with luke-
warm or cold water once a month,
after off-road driving and at the end
of each winter. Pay special attention
to these areas because it is difficult
to see all the mud and dirt. It will do
more harm than good to wet down
the road grime without removing it.
The lower edges of doors, rocker
panels, and frame members have
drain holes that should not be
allowed to clog with dirt; trapped
water in these areas can cause rust-
ing.
Aluminium wheel maintenance
The aluminium wheels are coated
with a clear protective finish.
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes whilst driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly whilst
maintaining a slow forward
speed.
WARNING
Do not use any abrasive
cleaner, polishing compound,
solvent, or wire brushes on
aluminium wheels.
Clean the wheel when it has
cooled.
Use only a mild soap or neu-
tral detergent, and rinse thor-
oughly with water. Also, be
sure to clean the wheels after
driving on salted roads.
Do not wash the wheels with
high-speed car wash brushes.
Do not use any cleanser con-
taining acid or alkaline deter-
gents.
