Good Driving Practices
Never take the vehicle out of gear
and coast down a hill. This is
extremely dangerous.
Don't "ride" the brakes. This can
cause the brakes and related parts
to overheat and malfunction.
When you are driving down a long
hill, slow down and shift to a lower
gear. Engine braking will help slow
down the vehicle.
Slow down before shifting to a
lower gear. This will help avoid
over-revving the engine, which can
cause damage.
Slow down when you encounter
cross winds. This gives you much
better control of your vehicle.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you shift into R
(Reverse) to prevent damage to
the transmission. Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident
Do not use aggressive engine
braking (shifting from a higher
gear to a lower gear) on slip-
pery roads. This could cause
the tires to slip and may result
in an accident.
WARNING
(Continued)
Avoid high speeds when cor-
nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control
of your vehicle at highway
speeds.
Loss of control often occurs if
two or more wheels drop off
the roadway and the driver
over steers to reenter the
roadway.
In the event your vehicle
leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
HYUNDAI recommends you
follow all posted speed limits.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seatbelt.
In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belt-
ed occupant.

Move shift lever. Press the shift button, then move shift lever.
Depress the brake pedal, press ths shift button, and then move shift lever.OYC056006
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surround-
ing areas near your vehicle for
people, especially children,
before shifting a vehicle into
D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver's
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, then set the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur
if these precautions are not
followed.
When using Manual Shift
Mode, use caution when shift-
ing from a higher gear to a
lower gear on slippery roads.
This could cause the tires to
slip and may result in an acci-
dent.
WARNING
Smartstream Intelligent Variable Transmission
(Smartstream IVT) Operation
The Smartstream Intelligent Variable Transmission (Smartstream IVT) auto-
matically shifts depending on speed, accelerate pedal position. The individual
speeds are selected automatically, depending on the position of the shift lever.

5. Move the shift lever.
6. Remove the tool from the shift-
lock override access hole then
install the cap.
If you need to use the shift-lock
release, have your vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
as soon as possible.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake,
and place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF position. Take the Key
with you when exiting the vehicle.
Good Driving Practices
• Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in
motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
While driving up or downhill, check
the gear position, indicated on the
cluster, to ensure the vehicle is
driving forward while in D (Drive),
or backward while in R (Reverse).
If you drive in the opposite direc-
tion of the selected gear, the
engine will turn off and a serious
accident may occur due to the
degraded brake performance.
•When you stay in the vehicle
with the engine running, be
careful not to depress the
accelerator pedal for a long
period of time. The engine or
exhaust system may overheat
and start a fire.
The exhaust gas and the
exhaust system are very hot.
Keep away from the exhaust
system components.
Do not stop or park over flam-
mable materials, such as dry
grass, paper or leaves. They
may ignite and cause a fire.

Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Depressing both accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time can
trigger logic for engine power
reduction to assure vehicle decel-
eration. Vehicle acceleration will
resume after the brake pedal is
released.
Always apply the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle. Do not
depend on placing the transmis-
sion in P (Park) to keep the vehicle
from moving.
Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seatbelt.
In a collision, an unbelted
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belt-
ed occupant.
Avoid high speeds when cor-
nering or turning.

wheel movements, such as

FCA Sensor
In order for FCA to operate properly,
always make sure the sensor cover
or sensor is clean and free of dirt,
snow, and debris. Dirt, snow, or for-
eign substances on the sensor cover
or sensor may adversely affect the
sensing performance of the sensor. Do not apply a license plate
frame or foreign objects such as
a bumper sticker or a bumper
guard or number plate molding
near the radar sensor. Doing so
may adversely affect the sens-
ing performance of the radar.
Always keep the radar sensor
and cover clean and free of dirt
and debris.
Use only a soft cloth to wash the
vehicle. Do not spray pressur-
ized water directly on the sensor
or sensor cover.
Be careful not to apply unneces-
sary force on the radar sensor or
sensor cover. If the sensor is
forcibly moved out of proper
alignment, FCA may not operate
correctly. In this case, a warning
message may not be displayed.
Have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)
NOTICE
FCA logic operates within cer-
tain parameters, such as the
distance from the vehicle, the
speed of the vehicle ahead, and
the driver's vehicle speed.
Certain conditions such as
inclement weather and road
conditions may affect the oper-
ation of FCA.
WARNING
FCA braking control cannot
completely stop the vehicle nor
avoid all collisions. The driver is
responsible for driving safely
and controlling the vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.

(Continued)
If the front bumper becomes
damaged in the area around the
radar sensor, FCA may not oper-
ate properly. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only genuine HYUNDAI
parts to repair or replace a dam-
aged sensor or sensor cover. Do
not apply paint to the sensor
cover.
Playing the vehicle audio sys-
tem at high volume may make it
difficult to hear FCA warning
sounds.
Warning message and warning
light
Forward Collision Avoidance Assist
(FCA) disabled.
Radar blocked
When the sensor cover is blocked
with dirt, snow, or debris, FCA opera-
tion may stop temporarily. If this
occurs, a warning message will
appear on the LCD display. Remove
any dirt, snow, or debris and clean
the radar sensor cover before operat-
ing FCA. The system will operate nor-
mally when such foreign substance is
removed.
FCA may not properly operate in an
area (e.g. open terrain), where any
substances are not detected after
turning ON the engine.
System Malfunction
Check Forward Collision Avoidance
Assist
When FCA is not working properly,
FCA warning light ( ) will illumi-
nate and the warning message will
appear for a few seconds. After the
message disappears, the master
warning light ( ) will illuminate.
In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
FCA warning message may
appear along with the illumination
of ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) warning light.
