The severe weather conditions of
winter quickly wear out tyres and
cause other problems. To minimise
winter driving problems, you should

Snow or icy conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding,
rapid acceleration, sudden brake
applications, and sharp turns are
potentially very hazardous practices.
During deceleration, use engine brak-
ing to the fullest extent. Sudden brake
applications on snowy or icy roads
may cause the vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tyres
or to install tyre chains on your tyres.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tyre chains, tow straps
or chains, a flashlight, emergency

a window scraper, gloves, ground
cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
Snow tyres
WARNING
Snow tyres should be equivalent
in size and type to the vehicle’s
standard tyres. Otherwise, the
safety and handling of your vehi-
cle may be adversely affected.
If you mount snow tyres on your vehi-
cle, make sure to use radial tyres of
the same size and load range as the
R U L J L Q D O W \ U H V 0 R X Q W V Q R Z W \ U H V R Q D O O
four wheels to balance your vehicle’s
handling in all weather conditions.
The traction provided by snow tyres
on dry roads may not be as high as
your vehicle’s original equipment
tyres. Check with the tyre dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.
i Information
'o not install studded tyres without
first checking local and municipal reg-
ulations for possible restrictions
against their use.

Whilst driving
To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being fro-
zen, spray approved de-icing fluid or
glycerin into key holes. When a lock
opening is already covered with ice,
spray approved de-icing fluid over the
ice to remove it. When an internal
part of a lock freezes, try to thaw it
with a heated key. Carefully use the

Use approved window washer anti-
freeze solution in system
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized window
washer anti-freeze solution, as speci-
fied on the window washer container.
Window washer anti-freeze solution
is available from a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer, and most vehicle
accessory outlets. Do not use engine
coolant or other types of anti-freeze
solution to prevent any damage to the
vehicle paint.
Do not let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged posi-
tion.
This is most likely to happen when
there is an accumulation of snow or
ice around or near the rear brakes or
if the brakes are wet. When there is
the risk that your parking brake may
freeze, temporarily apply it with the

gear (for manual transmission). Also,
block the rear wheels in advance, so
the vehicle may not roll. Then, release
the parking brake.Do not let ice and snow
accumulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driv-
ing in such conditions during the
severe winter, you should check
underneath the vehicle on a regular
basis, to ensure that the front wheels
and the steering components is
unblocked.
Carry emergency equipment
In accordance with weather condi-
tions, you should carry appropriate
emergency equipment, whilst driving.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tyre chains, tow straps
or chains, flashlight, emergency

An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to the
environment and human
health. Dispose of the battery
according to your local law(s)
or regulations.
Jump starting procedure
1. Position the vehicles close enough
that the jumper cables will reach,
but do not allow the vehicles to
touch.
2. Avoid fans or any moving parts in
the engine compartment at all
times, even when the vehicles are
turned off.
3. Turn off all electrical devices such
as radios, lights, air conditioning,
etc. Put the vehicles in N (Neutral,
for Automated manual transmis-
sion vehicle) or neutral (for Manual
transmission vehicle), and set the
parking brakes. Turn both vehicles
OFF.

4. Connect the jumper cables in the
exact sequence shown in the illus-
tration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) jump-
er terminal of your vehicle (1).
5. Connect the other end of the jump-
er cable to the red, positive (+) bat-
tery/jumper terminal of the assist-
ing vehicle (2).
6. Connect the second jumper cable
to the black, negative (-) battery/
chassis ground of the assisting
vehicle (3).
7. Connect the other end of the sec-
ond jumper cable to the black, neg-
ative (-) chassis ground of your
vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the correct
battery or jumper terminals or the
correct ground. Do not lean over
the battery when making connec-
tions.

WARNING
Prior to replacing a light, depress
the foot brake, move the shift lever
into the N (Neutral, for Automated
manual transmission vehicle) or
neutral (for manual transmission
vehicle), apply the parking brake,
place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF position, and take the
key with you when leaving the ve-
hicle to avoid sudden movement
of the vehicle and to prevent pos-
sible electric shock.
Be aware the bulbs may be hot and
may burn your fingers.
NOTICE
Be sure to replace the burned-out
bulb with one of the same wattage
rating. Otherwise, it may cause
damage to the fuse or electric wir-
ing system.
i Information
The headlight and tail lamp lenses
could appear frosty if the vehicle is
washed after driving or the vehicle is
driven at night in wet weather. This
condition is caused by temperature dif-
ference between the lamp inside and
outside and, it does not indicate a
problem with your vehicle. When
moisture condenses in the lamp, it will
be removed after driving with the
headlight on. The removable level may
differ depending on lamp size, lamp
position and environmental condition.
However, if moisture is not removed,
we recommend that your vehicle is in-
spected by a HYUNDAI authorised re-
pairer.
i Information (For Europe)
Traffic Change
The low beam light distribution is
asymmetric. If you go abroad to a
country with opposite traffic direction,
this asymmetric part will dazzle on-
coming car driver. To prevent dazzle,
ECE regulation demand several tech-
nical solutions (ex. automatic change
system, adhesive sheet, down aiming).
These headlights are designed not to
dazzle opposite drivers. So, you need
not change your headlights in a coun-
try with opposite traffic direction.
