Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check the following:

[ All filler caps in engine
compartment must be correctly
installed.

[ Gloves, rags or any other
combustible material must
be removed from the engine
compartment.
2. Return the support rod to its clip to prevent it from rattling.
3. Lower the hood halfway (lifted approximately 30 cm from the closed
position) and push down to securely
lock in place. Then double check to be
sure the hood is secure.
If the hood can be raised slightly, it is
not securely locked. Open it again and

around the hood opening.

[ Always double check to be sure that
the hood is firmly latched before
driving away. Check there is no
hood open warning light or message
displayed on the instrument cluster.
Driving with the hood opened may
cause a total loss of visibility, which
might result in an accident.

[ Do not move the vehicle with the
hood in the raised position, as vision
is obstructed, which might result in
an accident, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.

FUEL FILLER DOOR
Opening the fuel filler door
OCN7050042
The fuel filler door must be opened from
inside the vehicle by pulling up the fuel
filler door opener.
1. Turn the engine off.

the tank equalizes.
5. Place the cap on the fuel filler door.
Information
Open and close the reservoir cap by using
the handle on the cap cover for safety.
Information
If the fuel filler door does not open
because ice has formed around it, tap
lightly or push on the door to break the
ice and release the door. Do not pry on the
door. If necessary, spray around the door
with an approved de-icer fluid (do not use
radiator anti-freeze) or move the vehicle to
a warm place and allow the ice to melt.

Convenience Features5-70
Closing the fuel filler door
1. To install the fuel tank cap, turn it clockwise until it “Clicks”.
2. Close the fuel filler door until it is latched securely.
Tighten the cap until it clicks one time,
otherwise the Check Engine (
) light
will illuminate.
NOTICE
There may be an intermittent noise
near the refueling hole while the engine
is idling if the fuel cap is not closed
securely. This occurs normally with the
OBD system.
NOTICE
When refueling on unlevel ground,
the fuel gauge may not point to the F
position.
It is not a malfunction. If you move your
vehicle to a level ground, the fuel gauge
will move to the full position.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:

[ Read and follow all warnings posted
at the gas station.

[ Before refueling, note the location of
the Emergency Gasoline Shut-Off, if
available, at the gas station.

[ Before touching the fuel nozzle, you
should eliminate the potential build-
up of static electricity by touching
a metal part of the vehicle, a safe
distance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas source,
with your bare hand.

[ Do not use cellular phones while
refueling. Electric current and/or
electronic interference from cellular
phones can potentially ignite fuel
vapors and cause a fire.

[ Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling.
You can generate a build-up of
static electricity by touching,
rubbing or sliding against any item
or fabric capable of producing
static electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. If you must re-enter
the vehicle, you should once again
eliminate potentially dangerous
static electricity discharge by
touching a metal part of the vehicle,
away from the fuel filler neck, nozzle
or other gasoline source, with your
bare hand.

[When refueling, always move the
shift lever to the P (Park) position,
set the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch to the LOCK/OFF
position.

[ Sparks produced by electrical
components related to the engine
can ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.

[ When using an approved portable
fuel container, be sure to place the
container on the ground prior to
refueling. Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact between your
bare hand and the vehicle should
be maintained until the filling is
complete.

[ Use only approved portable plastic
fuel containers designed to carry and
store gasoline.

[ Do not use matches or a lighter and
do not smoke or leave a lit cigarette
in your vehicle while at a gas station,
especially during refueling.

[ Do not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
gasoline spillage.

[ If a fire breaks out during refueling,
leave the vicinity of the vehicle, and
immediately contact the manager
of the gas station and then contact
the local fire department. Follow any
safety instructions they provide.
[If pressurized fuel sprays out, it can
cover your clothes or skin and thus
subject you to the risk of fire and
burns. Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap is
venting fuel or if you hear a hissing
sound, wait until the condition stops
before completely removing the cap.

[ Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an accident.
Information
Make sure to refuel your vehicle according
to the “Fuel Requirements” suggested in
the Introduction chapter.
NOTICE

[Do not spill fuel on the exterior
surfaces of the vehicle. Any type of
fuel spilled on painted surfaces may
damage the paint.

[ If the fuel filler cap requires
replacement, use only a genuine
HYUNDAI cap or the equivalent
specified for your vehicle. An
incorrect fuel filler cap can result
in a serious malfunction of the fuel
system or emission control system.

Battery Saver Function
The purpose of this feature is to
help prevent the battery from being
discharged. The system automatically
turns off the parking lamp when the
driver turns the vehicle off and opens the
driver-side door.
With this feature, the parking lamps will
turn off automatically if the driver parks
on the side of road at night.
However, the position lamps stay ON
even when the driver-side door is opened
if the headlight switch is turned to the
position lamp (O) or AUTO (if equipped)
position after the engine is turned off.
If necessary, to keep the lamps on
turn the position lamps OFF and ON
again using the headlight switch on
the steering column after the engine is
turned off.
Headlight Delay Function
(if equipped)
If you place the ignition switch in the
ACC or OFF position with the headlights
ON, the headlights (and/or parking
lamps) remain on for about 5 minutes.
However, with the engine off if the
driver’s door is opened and closed, the
headlights (and/or parking lamps) are
turned off after 15 seconds.
The headlights (and/or parking lamps)
can be turned off by pressing the lock
button on the remote key or smart key
twice or turning the light switch to the
OFF or AUTO position. However, if you
turn the light switch to the AUTO position
when it is dark outside, the headlights
will not be turned off.
You can activate or deactivate the
Headlight Delay function from the User
Settings Mode in the LCD display.
For more details, refer to “LCD Display
Modes” in chapter 4. If your vehicle is
equipped with additional navigation,
please refer to the infotainment system
manual separately supplied.
NOTICE
If the driver exits the vehicle through
another door besides the driver
door, the battery saver function
does not operate and the headlight
delay function does not turn OFF
automatically.
This may cause the battery to
discharge. To avoid battery discharge,
turn OFF the headlights manually from
the headlight switch before exiting the
vehicle.

remote key or smart key and the vehicle
enters the armed stage of the theft
alarm system, the lamps will go off five
seconds later.
