Hazardous Driving Conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud and sand, take the
bellow suggestions:
 Drive cautiously and keep a longer
braking distance.
 Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
 When your vehicle is stuck in snow,
mud, or sand, turn off the vehicle.
Remove the mud, snow or sand
from around the front wheels and
restart the vehicle. Accelerate
slowly to avoid unnecessary wheel
spin.
 Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or
other non-slip materials under the
wheels to provide additional trac-
tion while the vehicle becomes
stuck in ice, snow, or mud.
Rocking the Vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and a for-
ward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and
do not race the vehicle.
To prevent reduction gear wear, wait
until the wheels stop spinning before
shifting gears. Release the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal while
the reduction gear is in gear. Slowly
spinning the wheels in forward and
reverse directions causes a rocking
motion that may free the vehicle.

If the vehicle is stuck and
excessive wheel spin occurs,
the temperature in the tires can
increase very quickly. If the tires
become damaged, a tire blow
out or tire explosion can occur.
This condition is dangerous -
you and others may be injured.
Do not attempt this procedure if
people or objects are anywhere
near the vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehi-
cle, the vehicle can overheat
quickly, possibly causing an
fuel cell power module com-
partment fire or other damage.
Try to avoid spinning the
wheels as much as possible to
prevent overheating of either
the tires or the vehicle. DO NOT
allow the vehicle to spin the
wheels above 56 km/h (35 mph).
WARNING   

6-3
What to do in an emergency
If a fire occurs
1. Stop the vehicle, shift gear to the
P(Park) position, engage the park-
ing brake, and turn the vehicle off.
The flow of hydrogen into the fuel
cell stack will be shut off to prevent
the electricity from being generat-
ed.
2. If the fire is small, which can be
extinguished with fire extinguisher,
use carbon dioxide extinguisher.
You can also extinguish the fire
with water when the vehicle power
is turned off.If the fire is too big to be extin-
guished with the fire extinguisher,
evacuate from the vehicle, call the
fire department, and let them know
the vehicle is a Fuel Cell Electric
Vehicle. Do not come close to the
vehicle until the fire is totally extin-
guished.
Emergency venting of hydro-
gen gas
If the temperature near the safety
valve located at the rear under vehi-
cle is over 230°F (110°C) caused by
a fire or other reasons, the safety
valve will open to vent hydrogen gas.
Venting the hydrogen gas makes a
loud noise because the venting
speed is very fast. Stay well away
from the vehicle. The discharge of
hydrogen gas from the vehicle is
flammable and could cause a fire.
If a submersion in water
occurs
If your vehicle was flooded and has
soaked carpeting or water on the
flooring, you should not try to start
the vehicle by pressing the POWER
button.
Contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer immediately.
If the vehicle stalls at a cross-
road or crossing
If the vehicle stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, set the gear in the N
(Neutral) position and then push the
vehicle to a safe place.
6
Do not use water to extinguish a
fire when the vehicle power is
turned on. Serious electric
shock may result.
WARNING   

6-4
If you have a flat tire while
driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driv-
ing:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal and let the vehicle slow
down while driving straight ahead.
Do not apply the brakes immedi-
ately or attempt to pull off the road
as this may cause a loss of con-
trol. When the vehicle has slowed
to such a speed that it is safe to do
so, brake carefully and pull off the
road. Drive off the road as far as
possible and park on firm, level
ground. If you are on a divided
highway, do not park in the medi-
an area between the two traffic
lanes.
2. When the vehicle is stopped, turn
on your emergency hazard flash-
ers, set the parking brake and shift
gear to the P(Park) position.
3. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
If the vehicle stalls while driv-
ing
1. Reduce your speed gradually,
keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try to start the vehicle again. If
your vehicle will not start, contact
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Be sure the shift lever is in P
(Park). The vehicle starts only
when the shift lever is in P (Park).
 This vehicle does not have a regu-
lar 12V battery that needs periodic
replacement. It is lithium ion poly-
mer type integrated into the high
voltage battery. The vehicle has a
12V battery protection system that
cuts 12V battery from vehicle draw
to prevent full discharge. If vehicle
will not start, first try pressing the
12V Battery Reset switch (left side
of the steering wheel near the fuel
door open switch) to reconnect the
12V battery, but you must start
vehicle within 15 seconds of press-
ing the 12V Battery Reset switch.
After starting vehicle, operate the
vehicle safely outdoors in ready
mode stopped and/or drive it for 30
minutes total to charge the 12V
battery fully.
 Check the fuel level and add fuel if
necessary.
 Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it.
If the vehicle still does not start, call
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
