Instrument Cluster Control
Adjusting instrument cluster
illumination
ODN8A059337
When the vehicle's parking lamps or
headlamps are on, press the illumination
control button to adjust the brightness of
the instrument panel illumination.
When pressing the illumination control
button, the interior switch illumination
ntensity is also adjustable.

driver distraction which may cause an
accident and lead to vehicle damage,
serious injury, or death.
Gauges and Meters
Speedometer
„„Type A, B„„Type C
OLX2048102LODN8049004L
The speedometer indicates the speed of
the vehicle and is calibrated in miles per
hour (MPH) and/or kilometers per hour
(km/h).
Power gauge
„„Type A, B„„Type C
ODN8H049032ODN8H040033N
The power gauge indicates whether the
current driving condition is fuel efficient
or not.
• CHARGE : Shows that the energy
made by the vehicle is being
converted to electrical energy.
(Regenerated energy)
• ECO : Shows that the vehicle is being
driven in an Eco-friendly manner.

Information
Accordance to the power gauge area
the“EV” indicator comes on or off.
-“EV” indicator ON : Vehicle is driven
using the electric motor or the gasoline
engine is stopped.
-“EV” indicator OFF : Vehicle is driven
using the gasoline engine.
Hybrid battery SOC (State of Charge)
gauge
„„Type A, B„„Type C
ODN8H049034ODN8H040035N
This gauge indicates the remaining
hybrid battery power. If the SOC is near
the “0 or L (Low)” level, the vehicle
automatically operates the engine to
charge the battery.
However, if the Service Indicator (
)
and Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
(
) turn on when the SOC gauge is near
the “0 or L (Low)” level, we recommend
the vehicle be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
Never try to start the vehicle if the fuel
tank is empty. In this condition, the
engine cannot charge the high voltage
battery of the hybrid system. If you
try to start the vehicle when the fuel
is empty, the high voltage battery will
become discharged and be damaged.
Fuel gauge
„„Type A, B
ODN8A049040
„„Type C
ODN8A049007This gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.

04
4 -7
Information
• The fuel tank capacity is given in
chapter 2.
• The fuel gauge is supplemented by
a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly
empty.
• On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in
the tank.
WARNING
Running out of fuel can expose vehicle
occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional
fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the "E
(Empty)" level.
NOTICE
Avoid driving with an extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire and damage
the catalytic converter.
Outside temperature gauge
„„Type A, B
OTMA048112
„„Type C
oDN8A049031This gauge indicates the current outside
air temperature by 1°F (1°C).
-Temperature range: -40°F ~ 140°F
(40°C ~ 60°C)
Note that the temperature indicated
on the LCD display may not change
as quickly as the outside temperature
(there may be a slight delay before the
temperature changes.)

Instrument Cluster
4-8
You can change the temperature unit
from °F to °C or °C to °F in the User
Settings mode in the cluster:
-Go to User Settings Mode → Other → Temperature Unit.
For vehicles equipped with Automatic
Climate Control, you can also:
- Press and hold the AUTO and OFF
buttons on the climate control unit for
3 seconds
Both the temperature unit on the cluster
LCD display and climate control screen
will change.
Odometer
„„Type A, B
OTMA048183
„„Type C
ODN8H040010NThe odometer indicates the total
distance that the vehicle has been
driven and should be used to determine
when periodic maintenance should be
performed.
Range
„„Type A, B
OAD048563L
„„Type C
ODN8A049033
• The range is the estimated distance
the vehicle can be driven with the
remaining fuel.
• If the estimated distance is below
1 mi. (1 km), the trip computer will
display "----" as range.

04
4-9
Information
• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupted,
the range function may not operate
correctly.
• The range may differ from the actual
driving distance as it is only an estimate
of the available driving range for the
vehicle and driving conditions.
• The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 1.6 gallon (6
liters) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
• The range may vary significantly based
on driving conditions, driving habits,
and condition of the vehicle.
Transmission Shift Indicator
(if equipped)
Automatic transmission shift
indicator
„„Type A, B

Shift Indicator Pop-up
The pop-up that indicates the current
gear position is displayed in the cluster
for about 2 seconds when shifting into
other positions (P/R/N/D).

Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL)
This warning light illuminates:
• When you place the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position.
-The malfunction indicator light
illuminates for about 3 seconds and
then goes off.
• Whenever there is a malfunction with
either the emission control system or
the engine or the vehicle powertrain.
If this occurs, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
NOTICE
Driving with the Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) on may cause damage to
the emission control system which
could affect drivability and/or fuel
economy.
NOTICE
If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) illuminates, potential catalytic
converter damage is possible which
could result in loss of engine power.
In this case, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
Charging System Warning
Light
When this warning light illuminates while
the engine is running, the battery is not
being charged. Immediately turn OFF
all electrical accessories. Try not to use
electrically operated controls, such as
the power windows. Keep the engine
running.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
Engine Oil Pressure Warning
Light
This warning light illuminates:
When the engine oil pressure is low.
If the engine oil pressure is low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check
the engine oil level (For more
information, refer to "Engine Oil" in
chapter 8). If the level is low, add oil
as required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, have
the vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.

warning light stays on after the
engine has started, turn the
engine off immediately. In this
case, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
When the fuel tank is nearly empty. Add
fuel as soon as possible.
NOTICE
Driving with the Low Fuel Level warning
light on or with the fuel level below "E"
can cause the engine to misfire and
damage the catalytic converter.
Service warning light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you set the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
ON position.
-The service warning light illuminates
for approximately 3 seconds and
then turns off when all checks have
been performed.
• When there is a problem with the
hybrid vehicle control system or
hardware.
When the warning light illuminates
while driving, or does not go OFF after
starting the vehicle, we recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Exhaust system (GPF)
warning light
• This warning light illuminates, when
accumulated soot reaches a certain
amount.
• When this warning light illuminates, it
may turn off after driving the vehicle
at more than 50mph (80km/h) for
about 30 minutes (above 3rd gear
with 1500 ~ 4000 engine rpm).
If this warning light blinks in spite
of the procedure (at this time LCD
warning message will be displayed),
we recommend that you have the
GPF system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
If you continue to drive with the GPF
warning light blinking for a long time,
the GPF system can be damaged and
fuel consumption can worsen.
