Emergency Trunk Safety Release
OCN7050038
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Emergency Trunk Safety Release lever
located inside the trunk. When someone
is inadvertently locked in the trunk, the
trunk can be opened by moving the lever
in the direction of the arrow and pushing
the trunk open.
WARNING

[ You and your passengers must
be aware of the location of the
Emergency Trunk Safety Release
lever in this vehicle and how to open
the trunk in case you are accidentally
locked in the trunk.

[ NEVER allow anyone to occupy the
trunk of the vehicle at any time. If the
trunk is partially or totally latched
and the person is unable to get out,
serious injury or death could occur
due to lack of ventilation, exhaust
fumes and rapid heat build-up, or
because of exposure to cold weather
conditions. The trunk is also a highly
dangerous location in the event of a
crash because it is not a protected
occupant space but is a part of the
vehicle’s crush zone.

[ Your vehicle should be kept locked
and the Smart Key should be kept
out of the reach of children. Parents
should teach their children about the
dangers of playing in trunks.

[ Use the release lever for emergencies
only.

Trunk when washing your vehicle.
Otherwise, the trunk may open
inadvertently.

[ The key should be kept out of
reach of children. Children may
inadvertently open the Smart Trunk
release while playing around the rear
area of the vehicle.

Key Ignition Switch (if equipped)
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH, take the following precautions:

[NEVER allow children or any person
who is unfamiliar with the vehicle to
touch the ignition switch or related
parts. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur.

[ NEVER reach through the steering
wheel for the ignition switch, or any
other control, while the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of your hand
or arm in this area may cause a loss
of vehicle control resulting in an
accident.
OAE056172L
Whenever the front door is opened, the
ignition switch will illuminate, provided
the ignition switch is not in the ON
position. The light will go off immediately
when the ignition switch is turned on or
go off after about 30 seconds when the
door is closed. (if equipped)
WARNING
NEVER turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK or ACC position while the vehicle
is in motion except in an emergency.
This will result in the engine turning
off and loss of power assist for the
steering and brake systems. This may
lead to loss of directional control and
braking function, which could cause an
accident.
Before leaving the driver's seat, always
make sure the shift button is in P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake,
and turn ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death:

[ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for people,
especially children, before shifting a
vehicle into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).

[ Before leaving the driver's seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then set
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if these
precautions are not followed.

[ When using Manual Shift Mode, do
not use engine braking (shifting from
a high gear to lower gear) rapidly on
slippery roads. The vehicle may slip
causing an accident.
Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
P (Park)
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting in

to P (Park).
To shift from P (Park), you must depress
firmly on the brake pedal and make sure
your foot is off the accelerator pedal.
If you have done all of the above and
still cannot shift the lever out of P
(Park), see "Shift-Lock Release" in this
chapter.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) before
turning the engine off.
WARNING

[ Shifting into P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion may cause you to
lose control of the vehicle.

[ After the vehicle has stopped, always
make sure the shift lever is in P
(Park), apply the parking brake, and
turn the engine off.

[ When parking on an incline, block
the wheels to prevent the vehicle
from rolling down.

[ Do not use the P (Park) position in
place of the parking brake.

[ The RPM (revolution per minute)
may increase or decrease when
performing the Intelligent Variable
Transmission (IVT) self-diagnosis.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death:

[ ALWAYS check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for people,
especially children, before shifting a
vehicle into D (Drive) or R (Reverse).

[ Before leaving the driver’s seat,
always make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position, then set
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur if these
precautions are not followed.

[ When using Manual Shift Mode, do
not use engine braking (shifting from
a high gear to lower gear) rapidly on
slippery roads. The vehicle may slip
causing an accident.

[ To avoid damage to your transaxle,
do not try to accelerate in R (Reverse)
or any forward gear position with the
brakes on.

[ When stopped on slope, do not hold
the vehicle with accelerator pedal.
Use the service brake or the parking
brake.
[
The dual clutch transmission can be
thought of as an automatically shifting
manual transmission. It gives the
driving feel of a manual transmission,
yet provides the ease of a fully
automatic transmission.

[ When D (Drive) is selected, the
transmission will automatically
shift through the gears similar to a
conventional automatic transmission.
Unlike a traditional automatic
transmission, the gear shifting can
sometimes be felt and heard as the
actuators engage the clutches and the
gears are selected.

[ The dual clutch transmission adopts
a dry-type dual clutch, which is
different from the torque converter of
the automatic transmission. It shows
better acceleration performance
and increased fuel efficiency while
driving but initial launch might be
little bit slower than the automatic
transmission.
As a result, gear shifts are sometimes
more noticeable than a conventional
automatic transmission and a light
vibration during launching can be felt
as the transmission speed. This is a
normal condition of the dual clutch
transmission.

[ The dry-type clutch transfers torque
more directly and provides a direct
drive feeling which may feel different
from a conventional automatic
transmission. This may be more
noticeable when launching the vehicle
from a stop or when traveling at low,
stop-and-go vehicle speeds.

[ When rapidly accelerating at a low
vehicle speed, the engine rpm may
increase highly depending on the
vehicle’s driving condition.

[ For smooth launch uphill, press
down the accelerator pedal smoothly
depending on the current conditions.

Changing Tires
WARNING
A vehicle can slip or roll off of a jack
causing serious injury or death to you or
those nearby. Take the following safety
precautions:

[Never place any portion of your body
under a vehicle that is supported by
a jack.

[ NEVER attempt to change a tire in
the lane of traffic. ALWAYS move the
vehicle completely off the road on
level, firm ground away from traffic
before trying to change a tire. If you
cannot find a level, firm place off
the road, call a towing service for
assistance.

[ Be sure to use the jack provided with
the vehicle.

[ ALWAYS place the jack on the
designated jacking positions on the
vehicle and NEVER on the bumpers
or any other part of the vehicle for
jacking support.

[ Do not start or run the engine while
the vehicle is on the jack.

[ Do not allow anyone to remain in the
vehicle while it is on the jack.

[ Keep children away from the road
and the vehicle. Follow these steps to change your
vehicle’s tire:
1. Park on a level, firm surface.
2. Shift the shift button into P (Park).
3. Press the hazard warning flasher
button.
4. Remove the wheel lug nut wrench, jack, jack handle, and spare tire from
the vehicle.
OCN7080058L[A] : Block
5. Block both the front and rear of the tire diagonally opposite of the tire you
are changing.
OCN7080059L
6. Loosen the wheel lug nuts counterclockwise one turn each in
the order shown above, but do not
remove any lug nuts until the tire has
been raised off of the ground.
