Convenient features of your vehicle
If you suspect your smart key might
have sustained some damage, or
you feel your smart key is not work-
ing correctly, contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to the
environment and human
health. Dispose of the battery
according to your local law(s)
or regulations.
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly
coded key (or other device) is used,
the vehicle’s power system is disabled.
When the POWER button is placed in
the ON position, the immobilizer sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognize
the coding of the key.
Press the POWER button to the OFF
position, then press the POWER but-
ton to the ON position again.
In some circumstances, the vehicle
may not recognize your smart key if
another smart key device is nearby or
a metal object such as a key chain is
causing interference with the smart
key.
If this occurs, your vehicle may not
start. Remove any metal objects or
additional keys near the smart key
before attempting to start the vehicle
again.
If the system repeatedly does not
recognize the coding of the key, it is
recommended that you contact your
HYUNDAI dealer.Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical
problems could result that may make
your vehicle inoperable.
iIn order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
immobilizer password is a cus-
tomer unique password and
should be kept confidential.

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. If a malfunction is detected in
the electric power steering
(EPS) system, the power steer-
ing assist will be disabled. If this
occurs, the EPS warning light in
the cluster will either turn on or
blink. The steering effort when
turning may be increased. Have
your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer 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 in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics are completed,
the steering wheel effort will return
to its normal condition.
• When the battery voltage is low, you
might have to put more steering
effort. However, it is a temporary
condition so that it will return to nor-
mal condition after charging the bat-
tery.• A click noise may be heard from the
EPS relay after the POWER button
is in the ON or 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, you
may hear a noise from the electric
power steering system. If the tem-
perature rises, the noise will disap-
pear. This is a normal condition.

If your vehicle is equipped with a
sunroof, you can slide or tilt your
sunroof with the sunroof control
switch located on the overhead con-
sole.
The sunroof can be opened, closed,
or tilted when the POWER button is
in the ON position.
The sunroof can be operated for
approximately 10 minutes after the
POWER button is in the ACC or OFF
position.
However, as soon as the front doors
are opened, electrical power to the
sunroof will be turned off, so the 10-
minute period where power to the
sunroof is available will be cancelled.Information
• In cold and wet climates, the sun-
roof 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.
Do not continue to move the sun-
roof control lever after the sun-
roof 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 open, rain or
snow may enter through the
sunroof and damage the interior.
Also, if the sunroof is left open,
risk of theft may be increased.
