The following specification is
the maximum weight that can
be loaded onto the roof side
rails. Distribute the load as
evenly as possible onto the
roof side rails and secure the
load firmly.
Loading cargo or luggage in
excess of the specified weight
limit on the roof side rails may
damage your vehicle.
The vehicle center of gravity
will be higher when items are
loaded onto the roof side
rails. Avoid sudden starts,
braking, sharp turns, abrupt
maneuvers or high speeds
that may result in loss of vehi-
cle control or rollover result-
ing in an accident.
Always drive slowly and turn
corners carefully when carry-
ing items on the roof side rails.
Severe wind updrafts, caused
by passing vehicles or natural
causes, can cause sudden
upward pressure on items
loaded on the roof side rails.
This is especially true when
carrying large, flat items such
as wood panels or mattresses.
This could cause the items to
fall off the roof side rails and
cause damage to your vehicle
or others around you.
To prevent damage or loss of
cargo while driving, check fre-
quently before or while driv-
ing to make sure the items on
the roof side rails are secure-
ly fastened.

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas is toxic. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness and death.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide which cannot be seen or smelled.
Do not inhale engine exhaust.
If at any time you smell engine exhaust inside the vehicle, open the windows immediately. Exposure to CO can cause
unconsciousness and death by asphyxiation.
Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.
The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose. If
you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underneath side of the
vehicle, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.
Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Run the engine only
long enough to start the engine and to move the vehicle out of the garage.
Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the vehicle.
If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the vehicle, be sure to do so only in an
open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan control set to high so fresh air is drawn into the interior.
Keep the air intakes clear.
To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, keep the ventilation air intakes located in front of the windshield
clear of snow, ice, leaves, or other obstructions.
If you must drive with the liftgate open:
Close all windows.
Open instrument panel air vents.
Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face", and the fan control set to high.
