Good Driving Practices
• Never shift the gear from P (Park) or
N (Neutral) to any other position with
the accelerator pedal depressed.
• Never shift the gear into P (Park) when
the vehicle is in motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
• Do not shift the gear to N (Neutral)
when driving. If the gear is shifted to
N (Neutral) while driving. Doing so
may increase the risk of an accident.
Also, shift the gear back to D (Drive)
while the vehicle is moving may
severely damage the reduction gear.
• When driving uphill or downhill,
always shift to D (Drive) for driving
forward or shift to R (Reverse) for
driving backwards, and check the
gear position indicated on the cluster
or the rotary gear shift dial before
driving. Driving in the opposite
direction of the selected gear, can
lead to a dangerous situation by
shutting off the vehicle and affecting
the braking performance.
• Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can result
in the brakes overheating, brake wear
and possibly even brake failure.
• Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend
on placing the shift gear in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.
• Exercise extreme caution when
driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the drive
wheels to lose traction and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting in an
accident. •
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH: • ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
• Avoid high speeds when cornering or turning.
• Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.
• The risk of rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.
• Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.
• In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
• HYUNDAI Vehicle recommends you
to follow all posted speed limits.

Regenerative braking (Paddle
shifter)
ONE1061014
The paddle shifter is used to adjust the
regenerative braking level from 0 to 3
during decelerating or braking. • Left side (
): Increases regenerative
braking and deceleration.
• Right side (
): Decreases
regenerative braking and deceleration.
• Pull and hold the left side paddle
shifter for more than 0.5 seconds and One pedal driving function is
operated, increasing the regenerative
braking. In this case, stopping the
vehicle is possible by keep on pulling
the paddle shifter.
Refer to the following pages on "One pedal driving".
• Pull and hold the right side paddle
shifter for over 1 second to turn on
and off the automatic change of the
regenerative braking.
Refer to the following pages on
"Smart Recuperation System".
Information
The paddle shifter does not operate when: • The [
] and [] paddle shifters are
pulled at the same time.
• The vehicle is decelerating by
depressing the brake pedal.
• The Cruise Control system or Smart
Cruise Control system is activated.
• Selecting 0 step of the regenerative braking system, the brake disc cleaning
function is operated around 10 times. While operating to clean the brake disc, the driving distance and the
regenerative braking performance
can be reduced. After finishing, the
regenerative braking performance will
be restored.

The selected regenerative braking level is
displayed on the instrument cluster.
Initial setting of the regenerative
braking level and adjustable range vary
according to the selected Drive mode.
Drive mode Adjustable Range
SNOW 0 to 1 ECO 0 to 3
NORMAL 0 to 3 SPORT 0 to 3
For more details, refer to "Drive Mode
Integrated Control System" in this
chapter.
One Pedal Driving
The driver can stop the vehicle by pulling
the left side paddle shifter .
To operate:
• Pull and hold the left side paddle
shifter while coasting.
• When the vehicle speed is above 3
km/h, release the paddle shifter to
return to the preset regenerative
braking stage.
• When the vehicle speed is below 3
km/h, the function maintains control
to stop the vehicle even though the
paddle shifter is released.
• While the One pedal driving is in
activation, the driver can control the
vehicle stopping position using the
accelerator pedal.

Automatic engagement of EPB
After the vehicle is stopped by the
One Pedal Driving function, EPB is
automatically engaged when any of these conditions occur: •
The driver’s seatbelt is unfastened and
the driver’s door is open.
• The hood is open.
• The liftgate is open.
• 5 minutes have passed after the
vehicle has stopped.
• The system operation is limited due to
other reasons.
WARNING
• Stopping the vehicle may not be
possible according to the vehicle and
road conditions. Pay attention to the
road condition ahead and apply the
brake if necessary.
• Please refrain to use the one pedal
driving function with the road
conditions are bad such as being
wet, iced or covered with snow.
CAUTION
When the vehicle is stopped or parked by
One Pedal Driving on the steep hills, be
sure to depress the brake pedal.
i-Pedal
i-Pedal is controlled by acceleration
pedal. i-Pedal provides vehicle speed
control (acceleration/deceleration,
stopping) without manually controlling
the paddle shifter.
To operate:• Pull the left side paddle shifter to level
3 regenerative braking system.
• Pull the left side paddle shifter once
again when the regenerative braking
level is 3.
• Check i-Pedal indicator symbol on the
instrument cluster.
CAUTION
When the vehicle is stopped or parked
by i-Pedal on the steep hills, be sure to
depress the brake pedal.
