VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS

[This vehicle should not be modified. Modification of your vehicle could affect its
performance, safety or durability and may even violate governmental safety and
emissions regulations.
In addition, damage or performance problems resulting from any modification may
not be covered under warranty.

[ If you use unauthorized electronic devices, it may cause the vehicle to operate
abnormally, wire damage, battery discharge and fire. For your safety, you do not use
unauthorized electronic devices.

By following a few simple precautions for the first 1,000 km (600 miles) you may add to
the performance, economy and life of your vehicle.
[Do not race the engine.

[ While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute) between
2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.

[ Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or slow. Varying
engine speed is needed to properly break-in the engine.

[ Avoid hard stops, except in emergencies, to allow the brakes to seat properly.

[ Fuel economy and engine performance may vary depending on vehicle break-in
process and be stabilized after 6,000 km (4,000 miles). New engines may consume
more oil during the vehicle break-in period.

[ Do not tow a trailer during the first 2,000km (1,200 miles) of operation.
VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of
an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
[How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

[ Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;

[ How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,

[ How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-
trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving
conditions and no personal data (for example, name, gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties,
such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

CAUTION

[ Always keep the charging connector
and charging plug in clean and
dry condition. Be sure to keep the
charging cable in a condition where
there is no water or moisture.

[ Make sure to use the designated
charger for charging the electric
vehicle. Using any other charger may
cause failure.

[ Before charging the battery, turn the
vehicle OFF.

[ When the vehicle is switched OFF
while charging, the cooling fan
inside the motor compartment may
automatically operate. Do not touch
the cooling fan while charging.

[ Be careful not to drop the charging
connector. The charging connector can be damaged.AC Charge

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 out.

[ 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 under the floor. 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.

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, 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. - “EV” indicator ON : Vehicle is driven using the electric motor or the
gasoline engine is stopped.
- “EV” indicator OFF : Vehicle is driven using the gasoline engine.
Charging Cable Connection
Indicator (Plug-in hybrid
vehicle)
This indicator illuminates in red when the
charging cable is connected. 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, 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.
