Backing up
Hold the bottom of the steering wheel 
with one hand. Then, to move the trailer 
to the left, move your hand to the left. To 
move the trailer to the right, move your 
hand to the right. Always back up slowly 
and, if possible, have someone guide 
you.
Making turns
When you’re turning with a trailer, make 
wider turns than normal. Do this so your 
trailer won’t strike soft shoulders, curbs, 
road signs, trees, or other objects. Avoid 
jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in 
advance.
Turn signals
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has 
to have a different turn signal flasher and 
extra wiring. The green arrows on your 
instrument panel will flash whenever you 
signal a turn or lane change. Properly 
connected, the trailer lights will also flash 
to alert other drivers you’re about to turn, 
change lanes, or stop.
When towing a trailer, the green arrows 
on your instrument panel will flash for 
turns even if the bulbs on the trailer 
are burned out. Thus, you may think 
drivers behind you are seeing your 
signals when, in fact, they are not. It’s 
important to check occasionally to be 
sure the trailer bulbs are still working. 
You must also check the lights every time 
you disconnect and then reconnect the 
wires.
 WARNING
Do not connect a trailer lighting system 
directly to your vehicle’s lighting 
system. Use an approved trailer wiring 
harness. Failure to do so could result in 
damage to the vehicle electrical system 
and/or personal injury. We recommend 
that you consult an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
Driving on hills
Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear 
before you start down a long or steep 
downgrade. If you don’t shift down, you 
might have to use your brakes so much 
that they would get overheated and may 
not operate efficiently.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and 
reduce your speed to around 45 mph (70 
km/h) to reduce the possibility of engine 
and transmission overheating.
If your trailer weighs more than the 
maximum trailer weight without trailer 
brakes and you have a automatic 
transmission, you should drive in D 
(Drive) when towing a trailer.
Operating your vehicle in D (Drive) 
when towing a trailer will minimize heat 
build-up and extend the life of your 
transmission.

 CAUTION
•	 Forward Collision-Avoidance 
Assist operating speed range may 
reduce due to the conditions of 
the vehicle or pedestrian in front 
or surroundings. Depending on the 
speed, the system may only warn 
the driver, or the system may not 
operate.
•	 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 
will operate under certain conditions 
by judging the risk level based on 
the condition of the oncoming 
vehicle, driving direction, speed and 
surroundings.
 Information
In a situation where collision is imminent, 
braking may be assisted by Forward 
Collision-Avoidance Assist when braking 
is insufficient by the driver.

When Forward Collision-Avoidance 
Assist is not working properly, the ‘Check

System disabled
OTM070093NOTM070095N
When the front windshield where the 
front view camera is located, front radar 
cover or sensor is covered with foreign 
material, such as snow or rain, it can 
reduce the detecting performance and 
temporarily limit or disable Forward 
Collision-Avoidance Assist.
If this occurs the ‘Forward Safety 
system(s) disabled. Camera obscured’ or 
the ‘Forward Safety system(s) disabled. 
Radar blocked’ warning message, 
and the 
 and  warning lights will 
illuminate on the cluster.
The system will operate normally when 
when such snow, rain or foreign material 
is removed.
If the system does not operate normally 
after obstruction (snow, rain, or foreign 
material) is removed, we recommend 
that the system be inspected by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
 WARNING
•	 Even though the warning message or 
warning light does not appear on the 
cluster, Forward Collision-Avoidance 
Assist may not properly operate. 
•	 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 
may not properly operate in an 
area (e.g. open terrain), where any 
substance are not detected after 
turning ON the engine.
Limitations of the system

not operate normally, or the system 
may operate unexpectedly under the 
following circumstances:
•	The detecting sensor or the 
surroundings are contaminated or 
damaged
•	 The temperature around the front 
view camera is high or low 
•	 The camera lens is contaminated due 
to tinted, filmed or coated windshield, 
damaged glass, or stuck of foreign 
material (sticker, bug, etc.) on the 
glass
•	 Moisture is not removed or frozen on 
the windshield

•	Parking in snow
OTM070131
Snow may interfere with sensor 
operation, or Remote Smart Parking 
Assist may cancel if the road is 
slippery while parking.
 WARNING
Take the following precautions when 
using Remote Smart Parking Assist:
•	The driver is responsible for safe 
parking and exit when using Remote 
Smart Parking Assist. Make sure 
there are no pedestrians, animals 
or objects around the vehicle when 
using the system.
•	 When using Remote Smart Parking 
Assist, stay out of the way in the 
direction the vehicle moves for your 
safety. 
•	 Always check surroundings when 
using Remote Smart Parking Assist. 
You may collide with pedestrians, 
animals, or objects if they are near 
the sensor or are in the sensor’s blind 
spot area. 
•	 A collision may occur if a pedestrian, 
animal, or object suddenly appears 
while Remote Smart Parking Assist is 
operating. 
•	Do not use Remote Smart Parking 
Assist when under the influence of 
alcohol. 
•	 Do not let children or other people to 
use the smart key. 
•	 If Remote Smart Parking Assist is 
used continuously for a long period, 
it may adversely affect system 
performance.
•	 Remote Smart Parking Assist may not 
operate normally if the vehicle needs 
wheel alignment adjustment such 
as when the vehicle tilts to one side. 
We recommend that the vehicle be 
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer. 
•	 Noise may be heard when braking 
occurs by Remote Smart Parking 
Assist or when the brake pedal is 
depressed by the driver. 
•	 Remote Smart Parking Assist may 
suddenly apply the brake to avoid 
collision. 
•	 Use the system only in a parking 
space that is large enough for the 
vehicle to move safely. 
NOTICE
•	If the 3rd stage warning (continuous 
beep) of the Forward/Reverse 
Parking Distance Warning sounds 
while Remote Smart Parking 
Assist is operating, it means the 
obstacle detected is close to your 
vehicle. At this time, Remote Smart 
Parking Assist will temporarily stop 
operating. Make sure there are no 
pedestrians, animals, or objects 
around your vehicle. 
•	 Depending on brake operation, the 
stop lights may come on while the 
vehicle is moving.   

Emergency situations
8-2
HAzARD WARNING 
FLASHER
OTM080001
The hazard warning flasher serves as 
a warning to other drivers to exercise 
extreme caution when approaching, 
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emergency 
repairs are being made or when the 
vehicle is stopped near the edge of a 
roadway.
To turn the hazard warning flasher on 
or off, press the hazard warning flasher 
button with the Engine Start/Stop button 
in any position. The hazard warning 
flasher button is located in the center 
fascia panel. All turn signal lights will 
flash simultaneously.
•	The hazard warning flasher operates 
regardless of whether your vehicle is 
running or not.
•	 The turn signals do not work when the 
hazard flasher is on.
IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY 
WHILE DRIVING
If the engine stalls while driving
•	Reduce your speed gradually, keeping 
a straight line. Move cautiously off the 
road to a safe place.
•	 Turn on your hazard warning flasher.
•	 Try to start the engine again. If your 
vehicle will not start, we recommend 
that you contact an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer or seek other 
qualified assistance.
If the engine stalls at a crossroad 
or crossing
If the engine stalls at a crossroads or 
crossing, if safe to do so, shift the gear to 
N (Neutral) and then push the vehicle to 
a safe location.
