Starting the Vehicle
Vehicles with smart key system
1. Carry the smart key or leave it inside
the vehicle.
2. Make sure the parking brake is firmly
applied.
3. Make sure the shift button is in P
(Park). With the shift button in N
(Neutral), you cannot start the vehicle.
4. Depress the brake pedal.
5. Press the Engine Start/Stop button.
If the hybrid system starts, the “”
indicator will come on.
Whether the engine is cold or warm, it
should be started without depressing
the accelerator.
After following the start procedures,
“
” indicator on the instrument
cluster will turn on. For more details,
please check chapter 6.
ECONOMICAL and SAFE OPERATION of
Hybrid system
• Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a
moderate rate and maintain a steady
cruising speed. Do not make “jack-
rabbit” starts. Do not race between
stoplights.
• Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible.
Always maintain a safe distance
from other vehicles so you can
avoid unnecessary braking. This also
reduces brake wear.
• The regenerative brake generates
energy when the vehicle decelerates.
• When the hybrid battery power is
low, the hybrid system automatically
recharges the hybrid battery.
• When the engine is running with the
shift button in N (Neutral), the hybrid
system cannot generate electricity.
The hybrid battery cannot recharge
with the shift button in N (Neutral).
Information
In the hybrid system, the engine
automatically runs and stops. When
the hybrid system operates, the “
”
indicator is illuminated.
In the following situation, the engine may
operate automatically.
- When the engine is ready to run
-When the hybrid battery is being
charged
-Depending on the temperature
condition of the hybrid battery
Special Features
Hybrid vehicles sound different than
gasoline engine vehicles. When the
hybrid system operates, you may hear
a sound from the hybrid battery system
behind the rear seat. If you apply the
accelerator pedal rapidly, you may hear
an unconventional sound. When you
apply the brake pedal, you may hear
a sound from the regenerative brake
system. When the hybrid system is
turned off or on, you may hear a sound
in the engine compartment. If you
depress the brake pedal repeatedly
when the hybrid system is turned on,
you may hear a sound in the engine
compartment. None of these sounds
indicate a problem. These are normal
characteristics of hybrid vehicles.
If any of following occur, it’s a normal
condition if you hear a motor sound in
the engine compartment:
-After turning off the hybrid system,
the brake pedal is released.
-When the hybrid system is turned off,
the brake pedal is applied.
-When the driver door is opened.
DRIVING THE HYBRID VEHICLE

Foreword
1-16
Warning and Indicator Lights
Ready indicator
This indicator illuminates:
When the vehicle is ready to be driven.
-ON : Normal driving is possible.
-OFF : Normal driving is not possible,
or a problem has occurred.
-Blinking : Emergency driving.
When the ready indicator goes OFF
or blinks, there is a problem with the
system. If this occurs, we recommend
that you have your vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
EV mode indicator
This indicator illuminates:
When the vehicle is driven by the electric
motor.
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.
Regenerative brake warning
light
(yellow)
This warning light illuminates:
When the regenerative brake does not
operate and the brake does not perform
well. This causes the Brake Warning
light (red) and Regenerative Brake
Warning Light (yellow) to illuminate
simultaneously.
If this occurs, drive safely and have
your vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. The operation of the
brake pedal may be more difficult than
normal and the braking distance may
increase.

Warning and Indicator Lights
Information
Make sure that all warning lights are OFF
after starting the engine. If any light is still
ON, this indicates a situation that needs
attention.
Air Bag Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you place the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position.
-The air bag warning light illuminates
for about 6 seconds and then turns
off when all checks have been
performed
• The air bag warning light will remain
illuminated if there is a malfunction
with the Safety Restraint System (SRS)
air bag operation.
In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Seat Belt Warning Light
This warning light informs the driver that the seat belt is not fastened.
For more information, refer to “Seat
Belts” in chapter 3.
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you place the Engine Start/Stop
button to the ON position.
-The parking brake light illuminates
for about 3 seconds and will then
turn off once the parking brake is
released.
• Whenever the parking brake is
applied.
• Whenever the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
-If the warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is low.
• Whenever the regenerative brake
does not operate.
If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is
low:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check
the brake fluid level immediately
and add fluid as required (For more
information, refer to "Brake Fluid" in
chapter 8). After adding brake fluid,
check all brake components for fluid
leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found, or
if the warning light remains on, or if
the brakes do not operate properly, do
not drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
