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.

NOTICE

[When the vehicle is paint baked, do
not bake over 30 minutes in 70°C
(158°F) or 20 minutes in 80°C (176°F)
degree.

[ Do not wash the engine
compartment, using water. Water
may cause an electric shock and
damage the electronic components.
WARNING
This hybrid vehicle uses the hybrid
battery system inverter and converter
to generate high voltage. High voltage
in the hybrid battery system is very
dangerous and may cause severe burns
and electric shock. This may result in
serious injury or death.
[ For your safety, never touch,
replace, disassemble or remove the
hybrid battery system including
components, cables and connectors.
Severe burns or electric shock may
result in serious injury or death when
you fail to follow this warning.

[ When the hybrid battery system
operates, the hybrid battery system
can be hot. Always be careful
because burns or electric shock may
be caused by high voltage.

[ Do not spill liquid on the HPCU, HSG,
motor and fuses. If the hybrid system components come in contact with
liquid, it may result in electric shock.
Service Interlock Connector
OTMHQ010016
In case of emergency, cut the service
interlock connector cable to isolate the
high voltage of the battery.
WARNING
Never disconnect the service interlock
connector or cut the wire except in an
emergency situation.
Serious problems may occur, such as
the vehicle will not start.
Hybrid Battery Cooling Duct
OTMHQ010017
The hybrid battery cooling duct is
located of the Passenger’s seat (Left
hand-driver) and Driver’s seat (Right
hand-driver). The cooling duct cools
down the hybrid battery. When the
hybrid battery cooling duct is blocked,
the hybrid battery may be overheated.
Clean the cooling duct for the hybrid
battery with a dry cloth on a regular basis.

Foreword / Hybrid System Overview
1-54
WARNING

[ Never clean the cooling duct of the
hybrid battery with a wet cloth. If
any water enters the cooling duct
of the hybrid battery, the hybrid
battery may cause an electric shock,
resulting in a serious damage, an
injury or a death.

[ The hybrid battery is composed of
lithium-ion polymer. If the hybrid
battery is improperly handled, it is
dangerous to the environment. Also
it may cause electrical shock and
severe burns, resulting in a serious
injury or a death.

[ Do not spill liquid over the cooling
duct of the hybrid battery. Doing
so is very dangerous. It may cause
electric shock or serious injury.

[ Do not cover the cooling duct with objects.

[ Do not put any objects into the
cooling duct of the hybrid battery.
Doing so may cause loss of cooling
duct volume to the hybrid battery.
When the cooling duct is blocked
with any objects, immediately
contact your HYUNDAI dealer.

[ Never place a container of liquid on
or near the cooling duct. If the liquid
spills, the hybrid battery located in
the under floor may be damaged.

[ Do not obstruct the cooling duct
with any other objects.If an Accident Occurs
WARNING

[ For your safety, do not touch the
high voltage cables, connectors
and package modules. High voltage
components are orange in color.

[ Exposed cables or wires may be
visible inside or outside of the
vehicle. Never touch the wires or cables, because an electrical shock,
an injury, or a death may occur.

[ Any gas or electrolyte leakage from
your vehicle is not only poisonous
but also flammable. Upon witnessing
one of those, open the windows,
and remain a safe distance from the
vehicle out of the road.
Immediately call an emergency
services or contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and advise them
that a hybrid vehicle is involved.

[ When the vehicle is severely
damaged, remain a safe distance
of 15 meter or more between
your vehicle and other vehicles/flammables.

1-55
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.
