Emergency towing
If towing is necessary, we recommend  
you have it done by an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial tow truck service. 
If a towing service is not available in  
an emergency, your vehicle may be 
temporarily towed using a cable or chain 
secured to the emergency towing hook 
at the front (or rear) of the vehicle. 
Use extreme caution when towing the  
vehicle with a cable or chain. A driver 
must be in the vehicle to steer it and 
operate the brakes. 
Towing in this manner may be done  
only on hard-surfaced roads for a short 
distance and at low speeds. Also, the 
wheels, axles, power train, steering and 
brakes must all be in good condition.
 CAUTION
The driver must be in the vehicle for  
steering and braking operations when 
the vehicle is being towed. Passengers 
other than the driver must not be in the 
vehicle. Always follow these emergency towing 
precautions: •	
While depressing the brake pedal  
shift to the N (Neutral) position and 
turn the vehicle off. The START/STOP 
button will be in the ACC position.
•	 Release the parking brake.
•	 Depress the brake pedal with more 
force than normal as you will have 
reduced braking performance.
•	 More steering effort will be required 
because the power steering system will be disabled.
•	 Use a vehicle heavier than your own to 
tow your vehicle.
•	 The drivers of both vehicles should 
communicate with each other 
frequently.
•	 Before emergency towing, check that 
the hook is not broken or damaged.
•	 Fasten the towing cable or chain 
securely to the hook.
•	 Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady 
and even force.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
 WARNING
Performing maintenance work on a  
vehicle can be dangerous. If you lack 
sufficient knowledge and experience 
or the proper tools and equipment to 
do the work, we recommend that the 
system be serviced by an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer. ALWAYS follow 
these precautions for performing 
maintenance work: •	 Park your vehicle on level ground,  
shift to P (Park) position, apply the 
parking brake, place the START/STOP 
button in the OFF position.
•	 Block the tires (front and back) to 
prevent the vehicle from moving. 
Remove loose clothing or jewelry  
that can become entangled in 
moving parts.
•	 Keep flames, sparks, or smoking 
materials away from the battery and 
motor related parts.
The following lists are vehicle checks and 
inspections that should be performed 
by the owner or an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer at the frequencies indicated to 
help ensure safe, dependable operation 
of your vehicle. 
Any adverse conditions should be  
brought to the attention of your dealer as soon as possible. 
These Owner Maintenance vehicle  
checks are generally not covered by 
warranties and you may be charged for 
labor, parts and lubricants used.Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for charging: •	 Check the coolant level in the coolant  
reservoir.
•	 Check the windshield washer fluid 
level.
•	 Check for low or under-inflated tires.
 WARNING
Be careful when checking your coolant  
level when the motor compartment is 
hot. This may result in coolant being 
blown out of the opening and cause 
serious burns and other injuries.

BATTERY (12 VOLT)
 WARNING
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH  
to you or bystanders, always follow 
these precautions when working near 
or handling the battery: 
Always read and follow  
instructions carefully when 
handling a battery.
Wear eye protection designed  
to protect the eyes from acid splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks, or  
smoking materials away from 
the battery.
Hydrogen is always present  
in battery cells, is highly 
combustible, and may explode 
if ignited.
Keep batteries out of reach of  
children.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid  
which is highly corrosive. Do 
not allow acid to contact your 
eyes, skin or clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush your 
eyes with clean water for at least 15 
minutes and get immediate medical 
attention. If acid gets on your skin, 
thoroughly wash the area. If you feel 
pain or a burning sensation, get medical 
attention immediately.
•	 When lifting a plastic-cased battery,  
excessive pressure on the case may 
cause battery acid to leak. Lift with a 
battery carrier or with your hands on 
opposite corners.
•	 Do not attempt to jump start your 
vehicle if your battery is frozen.
•	 NEVER attempt to recharge the 
battery when the vehicle’s battery 
cables are connected to the battery.
•	 The electrical ignition switch works 
with high voltage. NEVER touch 
these components with the “
” 
indicator ON or when the START/ 
STOP button is in the ON position.
NOTICE
•	 When you do not use the vehicle for a  
long time in a low temperature area, 
disconnect the battery and keep it 
indoors.
•	 Always charge the battery fully to 
prevent battery case damage in low 
temperature areas.
NOTICE
If you connect unauthorized electronic  
devices to the battery, the battery may 
be discharged. Never use unauthorized 
devices.

name of battery
2.   12V :  The nominal voltage 
3.  60Ah(20HR) : The nominal capacity  (in Ampere hours)
4.  100RC : The no minal reserve capacity  
(in min.)

Battery recharging
By battery charger 
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,  
calcium-based battery. •	If the battery becomes discharged in a  
short time (because, for example, the 
headlights or interior lights were left 
on while the vehicle was not in use), 
recharge it by slow charging (trickle) 
for 10 hours.
•	 If the battery gradually discharges 
because of high electric load while the 
vehicle is being used, recharge it at 
20-30A for two hours.  
 WARNING
Always follow these instructions when  
recharging your vehicle’s battery to 
avoid the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or 
DEATH from explosions or acid burns: •	 Before performing maintenance or  
recharging the battery, turn off all 
accessories and place the START/
STOP button to the OFF position.
•	 Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking 
materials away from the battery.
•	 Always work outdoors or in an area 
with plenty of ventilation.

replace the battery. By jump starting  
After a jump start from a good battery,  
drive the vehicle for 20-30 minutes 
before it is shutoff. The vehicle may 
not restart if you shut it off before the 
battery had a chance to adequately 
recharge. See “Jump Starting” in chapter 
8 for more information on jump starting 
procedures.

LIgHT BULBS
We recommend to consult an authorized  
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.
 WARNING
•	 Prior to working on a light, depress  
the foot brake, shift to P (Park), apply 
the parking brake, place the START/
STOP button in the OFF position 
and take the key with you when 
leaving the vehicle to avoid sudden 
movement of the vehicle and to 
prevent possible electric shock.
•	 Be aware the bulbs may be hot and 
may burn your fingers.
NOTICE
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb  
with one of the same wattage rating. 
Otherwise, it may cause damage to the 
fuse or electrical wiring system.
NOTICE
To prevent damage, do not clean the  
headlamp lens with chemical solvents 
or strong detergents.
 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 condition. 
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 continues to 
flicker, we recommend the system be checked by an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer. 
•	 The position lamp may not turn on when the position lamp switch is turned on, but the position 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.
 Information
After an accident or head lamp  
replacement we recommend to consult an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer to perform the headlamp aiming.
