Remote key precautions
The remote key will not work if any of
the following occur:
• The key is in the ignition switch.
• You exceed the operating distance
limit (about 10 m [30 feet]).
• The remote key battery is weak.
• Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
• The weather is extremely cold.
• The remote key is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station or
an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the remote key.
When the remote key does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key. If you have
a problem with the remote key, it is
recommended that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the remote key is in close proximity to
your mobile phone, the signal could be
blocked by your mobile phones normal
operational signals. This is especially
important when the phone is active
such as making and receiving calls, text
messaging, and/or sending/receiving
emails. Avoid placing the remote key
and your mobile phone in the same
pants or jacket pocket and always try to
maintain an adequate distance between
the two devices.
i Information
Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment. If the
keyless entry system is inoperative due
to changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for
compliance, it will not be covered by your
manufacturer’s vehicle warranty.
NOTICE
Keep the remote key away from
electromagnetic materials that blocks
electromagnetic waves to the key
surface.

Smart key precautions
The smart key will not work if any of the
following occur:
• The smart key is close to a radio
transmitter such as a radio station,
military area, police station,
government offices, broadcasting
stations, transmission towers, port or
an airport which can interfere with
normal operation of the smart key.
• The smart key is near a mobile two
way radio system or a cellular phone.
• The smart key is close to a metal
product or coins
• Another vehicle’s smart key is being
operated close to your vehicle.
• When you connect an external device
to the multi-purpose socket or USB
port and place it near the smart key,
the smart key may not be recognized/
work in some areas of the vehicle. In
this case, try moving the smart key to
another location to start the engine or
press the start button directly with the
smart key to start the engine.
In the following situations, the frequency
band from the smart key may be mixed
with a different frequency, which may
cause smart key malfunction (engine
operation, door lock function, etc.) or
the working distance of smart key may
change.
• The smart key is placed near the
electronic systems (woofer, cellular
phone, portable wired/wireless
charger, electric heating device,
electronic power bank, e-cigarettes,
etc.)
When the smart key does not work
correctly, open and close the door
with the mechanical key. If you have
a problem with the smart key, it is
recommended that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the smart key is in close proximity to
your mobile phone, the signal could be
blocked by your mobile phones normal
operational signals. This is especially
important when the phone is active
such as making and receiving calls, text
messaging, and/or sending/receiving

How vehicle audio works
FM receptionFM reception
JBM001JBM001
AM and FM radio signals are broadcast
from transmitter towers located around
your city. They are intercepted by the
radio antenna on your vehicle. This
signal is then processed by the radio and
sent to your vehicle speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineering
of your audio system ensures the best
possible quality reproduction. However,
in some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear.
This can be due to factors, such as
the distance from the radio station,
closeness of other strong radio stations
or the presence of buildings, bridges or
other large obstructions in the area.
FM receptionFM reception
JBM002JBM002

AM broadcasts can be received at
greater distances than FM broadcasts.
This is because AM radio waves are
transmitted at low frequencies. These
long distance, low frequency radio
waves can follow the curvature of the
earth rather than travelling straight. In
addition, they curve around obstructions
resulting in better signal coverage.
FM receptionFM reception
JBM003JBM003
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow
the earth’s surface. Because of this,
FM broadcasts generally begin to fade
within short distances from the station.
Also, FM signals are easily affected by
buildings, mountains, and obstructions.
This can lead to undesirable or
unpleasant listening conditions which
might lead you to believe a problem
exists with your radio.

Convenient features
The following conditions are normal and
do not indicate radio trouble:
FM receptionFM reception
JBM004JBM004
• Fading - As your vehicle moves away
from the radio station, the signal will
weaken and sound will begin to fade.
When this occurs, we suggest that you
select another stronger station.
• Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals
or large obstructions between the
transmitter and your radio can disturb
the signal causing static or fluttering
noises to occur. Reducing the treble
level may lessen this effect until the
disturbance clears.
FM receptionFM reception
OJF045311LOJF045311L
• Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals
being received from several directions
can cause distortion or fluttering.
This can be caused by a direct and
reflected signal from the same station,
or by signals from two stations with
close frequencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition has
passed.
Using a cellular phone or a two-way
radio
When a cellular phone is used inside
the vehicle, noise may be produced
from the audio system. This does not
mean that something is wrong with the
audio equipment. In such a case, use
the cellular phone at a place as far as
possible from the audio equipment.
NOTICE
When using a communication system
such as a cellular phone or a radio set
inside the vehicle, a separate external
antenna must be fitted. When a cellular
phone or a radio set is used with an
internal antenna alone, it may interfere
with the vehicle’s electrical system and
adversely affect safe operation of the
vehicle.
While listening to the radio, if devices
such as laptop charger are connected
to the socket, it may generate noise.
