WARNING
If a fire occurs:
[ If a small scale fire occurs, use a fire
extinguisher (ABC, BC) that is meant
for electrical fires.
If it is impossible to extinguish
the fire in the early stage, remain
a safe distance from the vehicle
and immediately call your local
fire emergency responders. Also,
advise them that a hybrid vehicle is
involved.
If the fire spreads to the high voltage
battery, large amount of water is
needed to put out the fire.
Using small amount of water or
fire extinguishers not meant for
electrical fires could cause serious
injury or death from electrical
shocks.

[ Upon witnessing any sparks, gases,
flames, or fuel leakage of your
vehicle, immediately call emergency
services or contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Also, advise them
that a hybrid vehicle is involved.
WARNING
When a submersion in water occurs:
When your vehicle is flooded in water, a
high-voltage battery may cause shock
or fires. Thus, turn the hybrid system
OFF, take the key in your possession and
escape to a safe place. Never attempt
physical contact with your flooded
vehicle.
Immediately contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and advise them that a
hybrid vehicle is involved.
When the Hybrid Vehicle Shuts Off
When the high voltage battery or 12 volt
battery is discharged, or when the fuel
tank is empty, the hybrid system may
not operate while driving. When the
Hybrid system does not operate, do the
followings:
1. Gradually reduce the vehicle speed. Pull over your vehicle off the road in a
safe area.
2. Make sure the shift button is in P (Park).
3. Turn ON the hazard warning flashers.
4. Turn OFF the vehicle, and try to start the hybrid system again, while
depressing the brake pedal and
turning on the ignition switch.
5. When the hybrid system still does not operate, refer to “Jump starting”
section in chapter 8.
Before jump-starting the vehicle,
check the fuel level and the exact
procedure to jump start. For further
details, refer to “Jump starting”
section in chapter 8. When the fuel
level is low, do not attempt to drive
the vehicle only with the battery
power. The high voltage battery may
be discharged, and the hybrid system
will turn OFF.

To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only
lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote engine
efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before
checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy
areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick
areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could be damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can
provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any
viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated
in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from the chart.

An engine oil displaying this API Certification Mark conforms to
the international Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee
