WARNING

[Always wear appropriate shoes when
operating your vehicle. Unsuitable
shoes, such as high heels, ski boots,
sandals, flip-flops, etc., may interfere
with your ability to use the brake and
accelerator pedals.

[Do not start the vehicle with the
accelerator pedal depressed. The
vehicle can move and lead to an
accident.

[Wait until the engine RPM is normal.
The vehicle may suddenly move if
the brake pedal is released when the
RPM is high.
Vehicle with Manual transmission:
1. Make sure the parking brake is
applied.
2. Make sure the shift lever is in N
(Neutral).
3. Depress the clutch and brake pedals.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the START
position. Hold the key (maximum of
10 seconds) until the engine starts and
release it.
Vehicle with Automatic transmission/
Dual clutch transmission:
1. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
2. Make sure the shift lever is in P (Park).
3. Depress the brake pedal.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the START
position. Hold the key (maximum of
10 seconds) until the engine starts and
release it.

Whenever the front door is opened, the
Engine Start/Stop button will illuminate
and will go off 30 seconds after the door
is closed. (if equipped)
WARNING
To turn the engine off in an emergency:
Press and hold the Engine Start/ Stop
button for more than two seconds OR
rapidly press and release the Engine
Start/Stop button three times (within 3
seconds).
If the vehicle is still moving, you
can restart the engine without
depressing the brake pedal (Automatic
transmission) /brake pedal and clutch
pedal (Manual transmission) by
pressing the Engine Start/Stop button
with the shift lever in the N (Neutral)
position.
WARNING

[NEVER press the Engine Start/ Stop
button whilst 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 set the parking brake, press
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
OFF position, and take the Smart
Key with you. Unexpected vehicle
movement may occur if these
precautions are not followed.

Transmission ranges
The indicator in the instrument cluster
displays the shift lever position when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
33DUN
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into 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) whilst 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, place the
shift lever in P (Park) and apply the
parking brake to prevent the vehicle
from rolling downhill.

[For safety, always engage the parking
brake with the shift lever in the P
(Park) position except for the case of
emergency parking.
55HYHUVH
Use this position to drive the vehicle
backward.
NOTICE
Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into or out of R (Reverse); you
may damage the transmission if you
shift into R (Reverse) whilst the vehicle
is in motion.
11HXWUDO
The wheels and transmission are not
engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart
a stalled engine, or if it is necessary to
stop with the engine ON. Shift into P
(Park) if you need to leave your vehicle
for any reason.
Always depress the brake pedal when
you are shifting from N (Neutral) to
another gear.
WARNING
Do not shift into gear unless your foot is
firmly on the brake pedal. Shifting into
gear when the engine is running at high
speed can cause the vehicle to move
very rapidly. You could lose control of
the vehicle and hit people or objects.
''ULYH
This is the normal driving position. The
transmission will automatically shift
through a 6-gear sequence, providing
the best fuel economy and power.
For extra power when passing another
vehicle or driving uphill, depress the
accelerator fully. The transmission will
automatically downshift to the next
lower gear (or gears, as appropriate).

Shift-lock system
For your safety, the automatic
transmission has a shift-lock system
which prevents shifting the transmission
from P (Park) into R (Reverse) unless the
brake pedal is depressed.
To shift the transmission from P (Park)
into R (Reverse):
1. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine or place the ignition
switch in the ON position.
3. Move the shift lever.
Shift-lock release
If the shift lever cannot be moved from
the P (Park) position into R (Reverse)
position with the brake pedal depressed,
continue depressing the brake, and then
do the following:
OBC3060003R
1. Place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Press the shift-lock release button.
4. Press and hold the lock release button
on the shift lever.
5. Move the shift lever.
If you need to use the shift-lock release,
we recommend that the system be
inspected by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer immediately.

[The dual clutch transmission
incorporates a dry-type dual clutch
mechanism, which allows for better
acceleration performance and
increased fuel efficiency whilst driving.
But it differs from a conventional
automatic transmission because
it does not incorporate a torque
converter. Instead, the transition from
one gear to the next is managed by
clutch slip, especially at lower speeds.
As a result, shifts are sometimes more
noticeable, and a light vibration can be
felt as the transmission shaft speed is
matched with the engine shaft 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 from a
lower vehicle speed, the engine
rpm may increase dramatically as a
result of clutch slip as the dual clutch
transmission selects the correct gear.
This is a normal condition.

[When accelerating from a stop on an
incline, press the accelerator smoothly
and gradually to avoid any shudder
feeling or jerkiness.

[When traveling at a lower vehicle
speed, if you release the accelerator
pedal quickly, you may feel engine
braking before the transmission
changes gears. This engine braking
feeling is similar to operating a manual
transmission at low speed.

[When driving downhill, you may
wish to move the gear shift lever to
Manual Shift mode and downshift to
a lower gear in order to control your
speed without using the brake pedal
excessively.
[When you turn the engine on and off,
you may hear clicking sounds as the
system goes through a self-test. This
is a normal sound for the dual clutch
transmission.

[During the first 1000 miles (1,500 km),
you may feel that the vehicle may not
be smooth when accelerating at low
speed. During this break-in period, the
shift quality and performance of your
new vehicle is continuously optimized.
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.

[Do not use aggressive engine braking
(shifting from a higher gear to a lower
gear) on slippery roads. This could
cause the tyres to slip and may result
in an accident.
