Emergency situations
Your vehicle is equipped with
emergency commodities to help you
respond to emergency situation.
Fire extinguisher
If there is small fire and you know how
to use the fire extinguisher, follow these
steps carefully.
1. Pull out the safety pin at the top of
the extinguisher that keeps the handle
from being accidentally pressed.
2. Aim the nozzle towards the base of
the fire.
3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ft) away
from the fire and squeeze the handle
to discharge the extinguisher. If you
release the handle, the discharge will
stop.
4. Sweep the nozzle back and forth at
the base of the fire. After the fire
appears to be out, watch carefully
since it may re-ignite.
First aid kit
Supplies for use in giving first aid such
as scissors, bandage and adhesive tape,
etc. are provided.
Triangle reflector
Place the triangle reflector on the road
to warn oncoming vehicles during
emergencies, when the vehicle is parked
by the roadside due to problems.
Tyre pressure gauge
Tyres normally lose some air in day-to-
day use, and you may have to add a air
periodically and usually it is not a sign
of a leaking tyre, but of normal wear.
Always check tyre pressure when the
tyres are cold because tyre pressure
increases with temperature.
To check the tyre pressure, take the
following steps:
1. Unscrew the inflation valve cap that is
located on the rim of the tyre.
2. Press and hold the gauge against the
tyre valve. Some air will leak as you
begin and more will leak if you don’t
press the gauge firmly.
3. A firm non-leaking push will activate
the gauge.
4. Read the tyre pressure on the gauge
to see whether the tyre pressure is
low or high.
5. Adjust the tyre pressure to the
specified pressure. Refer to “Tyres and
Wheels” in chapter 2.
6. Reinstall the inflation valve cap.

battery supplies power during 1 hour
in case the main power source of the

during the emergency situations.
[ 7 K H 3 D Q ( X U R S H D Q H & D O O V \ V W H P
battery should be replaced every 3
years. For more information, refer to
“Maintenance Schedule” in chapter
9.
LED illumination in red (system
malfunction)
If the red LED illuminates in normal
driving conditions, this can indicate
malfunction of the Pan-European
eCall system. We recommend that you
have the Pan-European eCall system
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer as soon as possible. Otherwise
correct operation of the Pan-European
eCall system device, installed in your
vehicle is not guaranteed. Owner
of the vehicle incurs liability for
consequences, occurred as a result
of nonobservance of conditions,
mentioned above. Arbitrary Removal or Modification
The Pan-European eCall system calls
emergency services for assistance.
Thus, any arbitrary removal or changes
to the Pan-European eCall system
settings may affect your driving safety.
Also, it may even make an erroneous
emergency call to the Public Safety
Answering Point (PSAP). Thereby, we
kindly ask you not to make any changes
by yourself or by the third parties in the
settings of the equipment of the Pan-
European eCall system, installed in your
vehicle.

Maintenance
You should exercise the utmost care
to prevent damage to your vehicle and
injury to yourself whenever performing
any maintenance or inspection
procedures.
We recommend you have your vehicle
maintained and repaired by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer. A HYUNDAI
authorised repairer meets HYUNDAI’s
high service quality standards and
receives technical support from
HYUNDAI in order to provide you with a
high level of service satisfaction.
Owner’s responsibility
Maintenance service and record
retention are the owner’s responsibility.
You should retain documents that show
proper maintenance has been performed
on your vehicle in accordance with
the scheduled maintenance service
charts shown on the following pages.
You need this information to establish
your compliance with the servicing
and maintenance requirements of your
vehicle warranties.
Detailed warranty information is
provided in your Service Passport.
Repairs and adjustments required as
a result of improper maintenance or a
lack of required maintenance are not
covered.
Owner maintenance
precautions
Inadequate, incomplete or insufficient
servicing may result in operational
problems with your vehicle that could
lead to vehicle damage, an accident, or
personal injury. This chapter provides
instructions only for the maintenance
items that are easy to perform.
Your vehicle should not be modified
in any way. Such modifications may
adversely affect the performance, safety
or durability of your vehicle and may, in
addition, violate conditions of the limited
warranties covering the vehicle.
NOTICE
Improper owner maintenance during
the warranty period may affect
warranty coverage. For details, read
the separate Service Passport provided
with the vehicle. If you’re unsure
about any servicing or maintenance
procedure, we recommend that the
system be serviced by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.

7. If the oil level is below the L, add
enough oil to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil (Refer
to “Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” section in chapter 2).
NOTICE
To prevent damage to your engine:
[ Do not spill engine oil when adding or
changing engine oil. Wipe off spilled
oil immediately.
[ The engine oil consumption may
increase whilst you break in a new
vehicle and it will be stabilized after
driving 6,000 km (4,000 miles).
[ The engine oil consumption can be
affected by driving habits, climate
conditions, traffic conditions,
oil quality, etc. Therefore, it is
recommended that you inspect the
engine oil level regularly and refill it if
necessary.

leaks of internal electrolyte that
could result in severe injury.
By jump starting
After a jump start from a good battery,
drive the vehicle for at least 30 minutes
or operate at idle for at least 60 minutes
before it is shutoff. The vehicle may
not restart if you shut it off before the
battery had a chance to adequately
recharge. See “Jump Starting” in
chapter 8 for more details on jump
starting procedures.

Maintenance
Recommended cold tyre
inflation pressures
All tyre pressures (including the spare)
should be checked when the tyres are
cold. “Cold tyres” means the vehicle has
not been driven for at least three hours
or driven less than one mile (1.6 km).
Warm tyres normally exceed
recommended cold tyre pressures by 28
to 41 kPa (4 to 6 psi). Do not release air
from warm tyres to adjust the pressure
or the tyres will be under-inflated. For
recommended inflation pressure, refer
to “Tyre and Wheels” in chapter 2.
WARNING
Recommended pressures must be
maintained for the best ride, vehicle
handling, and minimum tyre wear.
Over-inflation or under-inflation can
reduce tyre life, adversely affect
vehicle handling, and lead to sudden
tyre failure that could result in loss of
vehicle control resulting in an accident.
Severe under-inflation can lead
to severe heat build-up, causing
blowouts, tread separation and other
tyre failures that can result in the
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident. This risk is much higher on
hot days and when driving for long
periods at high speeds.
NOTICE
[ 8 Q G H U L Q I O D W L R Q D O V R U H V X O W V L Q
excessive wear, poor handling
and reduced fuel economy. Wheel
deformation also is possible. Keep
your tyre pressures at the proper
levels. If a tyre frequently needs
refilling, we recommend that the
system be checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
[ 2 Y H U L Q I O D W L R Q S U R G X F H V D K D U V K U L G H
excessive wear at the centre of the
tyre tread, and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.
Check tyre inflation pressure
Check your tyres including the spare tyre
once a month or more.
How to check
Use a good quality tyre pressure gauge
to check tyre pressure. You cannot tell if
your tyres are properly inflated simply by
looking at them. Radial tyres may look
properly inflated even when they are
under-inflated.
Remove the valve cap from the tyre
valve stem. Press the tyre gauge
firmly onto the valve to get a pressure
measurement. If the cold tyre inflation
pressure matches the recommended
pressure on the tyre and loading
information label, no further adjustment
is necessary. If the pressure is low, add
air until you reach the recommended
pressure. Make sure to put the valve
caps back on the valve stems. Without
the valve cap, dirt or moisture could
get into the valve core and cause air
leakage. If a valve cap is missing, install
a new one as soon as possible.
