If the engine doesn’t turn over
or turns over slowly

[Be sure the shift lever is in N (Neutral)
or P (Park) if it is an automatic
transmission/dual clutch transmission
vehicle. The engine starts only when
the shift lever is in N (Neutral) or P
(Park).

[Check the battery connections to be
sure they are clean and tight.

[Turn on the interior light. If the light
dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to start
it. This could cause damage to your
vehicle. See instructions for “Jump
Starting” provided in this chapter.
CAUTION
Push or pull starting the vehicle may
cause the catalytic converter to
overload which can lead to damage to
the emission control system.
If the engine turns over normally
but doesn’t start

[Check the fuel level and add fuel if
necessary.
If the engine still does not start, we
recommend that you call a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer for assistance.

i Information
Pb
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 P (Park, for
automatic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) or neutral (for
manual transmission vehicle), and set
the parking brakes. Turn both vehicles
OFF.1VQA4001
4. Connect the jumper cables in
the exact sequence shown in the
illustration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) jumper
terminal of your vehicle (1).
5. Connect the other end of the jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) battery/
jumper terminal of the assisting
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 second
jumper cable to the black, negative (-)
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 connections.
8. Start the engine of the assisting
vehicle and let it run at approximately
2,000rpm for a few minutes. Then
start your vehicle.
If your vehicle will not start after a
few attempts, it probably requires
servicing. In this event, please seek
qualified assistance. If the cause of your
battery discharging is not apparent, we
recommend that you have your vehicle
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.

If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knocking,
the engine may be overheating. If this
happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it
is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (Park, for
automatic transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) or neutral (for
manual transmission/dual clutch
transmission vehicle) and set the
parking brake. If the air conditioning is
ON, turn it OFF.
3. If engine coolant is running out under
the vehicle or steam is coming out
from the bonnet, stop the engine. Do
not open the bonnet until the coolant
has stopped running or the steaming
has stopped. If there is no visible
loss of engine coolant and no steam,
leave the engine running and check
to be sure the engine cooling fan is
operating. If the fan is not running,
turn the engine off.
WARNING
Whilst the engine is
running, keep hands,
clothing and tools away
from the moving parts such
as the cooling fan and drive
belt to prevent serious
injury.4. Check for coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the vehicle. (If
the air conditioning had been in use, it
is normal for cold water to be draining
from it when you stop.)
5. If engine coolant is leaking out, stop
the engine immediately and we
recommend that you call a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer for assistance.
WARNING
NEVER remove the radiator
cap or the drain plug whilst
the engine and radiator are
hot. Hot coolant and steam
may blow out under
pressure, causing serious injury.
Turn the engine off and wait until the
engine cools down. Use extreme care
when removing the radiator cap. Wrap
a thick towel around it, and turn it
counterclockwise slowly to the first
stop. Step back whilst the pressure
is released from the cooling system.
When you are sure all the pressure
has been released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and continue
turning counterclockwise to remove it.

Emergency situations
Automatic accident reporting
OBC3080024
System operation in the event of a traffic accidentConnection with the Public Safety Answering Point(PSAP)
Emergency services
The Pan-European eCall device automatically makes an emergency call to the Public
Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for proper rescuing operations in the event of vehicle
accident.
For proper emergency services and support, the Pan-European eCall system
automatically transmits the accident data to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP)
when a traffic accident is detected.
In this case, the emergency call cannot be hung up by pressing the SOS button and
the Pan-European eCall system remains connected until the emergency service
officer, receiving the call, disconnects the emergency call.
In minor traffic accidents, the Pan-European eCall system may not execute an
emergency call. However, an emergency call may be made manually by pressing the
SOS button.
CAUTION
Operation of the system is impossible in case of absence of mobile transmission
and GPS and Galileo signals.
