Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
• Check for both fuel cell stack andDevice cooling coolant level in
coolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tires.
While operating your vehicle:
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice if there is any
increased steering effort or loose-
ness in the steering wheel, or
change in its straight-ahead posi-
tion.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or "pulls" to one side
when traveling on smooth, level
road.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or "hard-to-push" brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the operation of your reduction gear
occurs, check the reduction gear
fluid level.
Check the reduction gear P (Park) function.
Check the parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:
Check coolant level in the coolantreservoir.
Check the operation of all exterior lights, including the brake lights,
turn signals and hazard warning
flashers.
Check the inflation pressures of all tires that are worn, show uneven
wear, or are damaged.
Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year: (i.e., every Spring and Fall)
Check radiator, heater and air con-
ditioning hoses for leaks or dam-
age.
Check windshield washer spray and wiper operation. Clean wiper
blades with clean cloth dampened
with washer fluid.
Check headlamp alignment.
Check the seat belts for wear and function.
Be careful when checking the
coolant level when the fuel cell
power module is hot. Scalding
hot coolant and steam may
blow out under pressure. This
could cause burns or other seri-
ous injury.

Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer to replace most vehicle light
bulbs. 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 for removing the headlamp
assembly to get to the bulb(s).
Removing/installing the headlamp
assembly can result in damage to
the vehicle.
Information
The headlamp and tail lamp lenses
could appear frosty if the vehicle 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 outside and, it does not indicate a
problem with your vehicle. When
moisture condenses in the lamp, it will
be removed after driving with the
headlamp on. The removable level
may differ depending on lamp size,
lamp position and environmental con-
dition. However, if moisture is not
removed, we recommend that your
vehicle is inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
• A normally functioning lamp may
flicker momentarily to stabilize the
vehicle’s electrical control system.
However, if the lamp goes out after
flickering momentarily, or contin-
ues to flicker, we recommend the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• The parking lamp may not turn on when the parking lamp switch is
turned on, but the parking lamp
and headlamp switch may turn on
when the headlamp switch is turned
on. This may be caused by network
failure or vehicle electrical control
system malfunction. If this occurs,
we recommend the system be
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

•Prior to replacing a lamp, shift
to P (Park), apply the parking
brake, place the POWER but-
ton in the OFF position and
take the key with you when
leaving the vehicle to avoid
sudden movement of the vehi-
cle and to prevent possible
electric shock.
Be aware the bulbs may be
hot and may burn your fin-
gers.

How to Stop the Vehicle
1. Hold down the brake pedal while
the vehicle is parked.
2. While depressing the brake pedal,
shift to P (Park).

Virtual Engine Sound System
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sound for pedestri-
ans to hear vehicle sound because
there is no sound while the FCEV
vehicle is operating.
• If the vehicle is in the ready ( )
mode and the gear is not in P
(Park),
When the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse), an additional warning
sound will be heard.
•The vehicle is much quieter
while driving than a conven-
tional gasoline-powered vehi-
cle. Be aware of your sur-
roundings and always drive
safely.
After you park the vehicle or
while you are waiting at a traf-
fic light, check whether there
are children or obstacles
around the vehicle.
Check if there is something
behind the vehicle when driv-
ing in reverse. Pedestrians
may not hear the sound of the
vehicle.
