Starting the Vehicle
WARNING
• Always wear appropriate shoes when
operating your vehicle. Unsuitable
shoes, such as high heels, ski boots,
sandals, flipflops, 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 which can lead
to an accident.
Information
• The vehicle will start by pressing the Start/Stop button, only when the smart key is in the vehicle.
• Even if the smart key is in the vehicle,
and when it is far away from the driver, the vehicle may not start.
• When the Start/Stop button is in the
ACC or ON position, if any door is
open, the system checks for the smart
key. When the smart key is not in the
vehicle, the “
” indicator will
blink and the warning 'Key not in
vehicle' will come on. When all doors
are closed, the chime will also sound for about 5 seconds. Keep the smart key in
the vehicle when in the ACC position
or if the vehicle is in the ready (
)
mode.
Starting the vehicle
1. Always carry the smart key with you.
2. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
3. Make sure the gear is in P (Park).
4. Depress the brake pedal.
5. Press the START/STOP button. If the vehicle starts, the "
" indicator
will come on.
Information
• Always start the vehicle with your foot
on the brake pedal. Do not depress the
accelerator while starting the vehicle.
Do not race the motor while warming it up.
• If ambient temperature is low, the “
” indicator may remain
illuminated longer than the normal amount of time.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the vehicle: • If the (
) indicator turns off
while you are in motion, do not
attempt to shift the gear to the P
(Park) position.
If traffic and road conditions permit,
you may put the gear in N (Neutral)
while the vehicle is still moving and
press the Start/Stop button in an
attempt to restart the vehicle.
• Do not push or tow your vehicle to
start the vehicle.

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.

Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your brake
pressure and do not try to pump your
brakes. Depress your brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS is active.
ABS does not reduce the time or distance
it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that results
from sudden changes in direction, such
as trying to take a corner too fast or
making a sudden lane change. Always
drive at a safe speed for the road and
weather conditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stability.
Always steer moderately when braking
hard. Severe or sharp steering wheel
movement can still cause your vehicle to
veer into oncoming traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake system
may result in a longer stopping distance
than for vehicles equipped with a
conventional brake system. The ABS (
) warning light will stay on
for several seconds after the Start/Stop
button is in the ON position.
During that time, ABS will go through
self-diagnosis and the light will go off if
everything is normal. If the light stays on,
you may have a problem with your ABS.
Contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING
If the ABS (
) warning light is on and
stays on, you may have a problem with
the ABS. Your power brakes will work
normally. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, contact your authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
When you drive on a road having poor
traction, such as an icy road, and apply
your brakes continuously, ABS will be
active continuously and the ABS (
)
warning light may illuminate. Pull your
vehicle over to a safe place and turn the
vehicle off.
Restart the vehicle. If the ABS warning
light is off, then your ABS system is normal.
Otherwise, you may have a problem
with your ABS system. Contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING
Do not drive across the contour of steep
hills. A slight change in the wheel angle
can destabilize the vehicle, or a stable
vehicle may lose stability if the vehicle
stops its forward motion. Your vehicle
may roll over and lead to a serious injury
or death.
Driving through water
• Try to avoid driving in deep standing
water.
• If you need to drive in water, stop
your vehicle, set the vehicle in Multi
Terrain mode and drive under 5 mph
(8 km/h).
• Do not change gear while driving in
water.
CAUTION
Always drive slowly in water. If you drive
too fast, water may get into the motor
compartment, causing your vehicle to
suddenly stop.
Additional driving conditions
• Become familiar with the off-road
conditions before driving.
• Always pay attention when driving off-
road and avoid dangerous areas.
• Drive slowly when driving in heavy wind.
• Reduce vehicle speed when
cornering. The center of gravity
of AWD vehicles is higher than
conventional 2WD vehicles, making
them more likely to roll over when you
rapidly turn corners.
• Always hold the steering wheel firmly
when you are driving off-road.
WARNING
Do not grab the inside of the steering
wheel when you are driving off-road.
You may hurt your arm by a sudden
steering maneuver or from steering
wheel rebound due to an impact with
objects on the ground. You could lose
control of the steering wheel which may
lead to serious injury or death.
Emergency Precautions
Tires
When replacing tires, be sure to equip
all four tires with the same size, type,
tread patterns, brand and load-carrying
capacity.
WARNING
Do not use tire and wheel with different
size and type from the one originally
installed on your vehicle. It can affect
the safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could lead to steering
failure or rollover causing serious injury.

Drive Mode
ONE1061021
Drive mode may be selected according
to the driver's preference or road condition.
ONE1061041
The mode changes whenever the driver
pushes the DRIVE MODE button. NORMAL mode
Normal mode is a driving mode used
when driving on general roads, city
center and highways. ECO mode
ECO mode is a driving mode improving
energy efficiency by controlling motors
and reduction gear.
Electric energy efficiency varies
according to the driver's driving habit
and road condition. •
When ECO mode is selected, the
ECO indicator will illuminate on the
instrument cluster and the color of the mood lamp will change.
• When ECO mode is activated:
- The acceleration response may be slightly reduced if the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
- The air conditioner performance may be limited.
The above situations are normal
conditions when ECO mode is
activated to help improve electric
energy efficiency.
Limitations of ECO mode
If the following conditions occur while
ECO mode is operating, the system
operation is limited even though there is
no change in the ECO indicator. • When coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until motor
performance becomes normal.
• When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
motor torque is restricted.

• When SNOW mode is selected, the
SNOW indicator will illuminate on the
instrument cluster and the color of the mood lamp will change.
• When SNOW mode is activated, the
driving power is distributed to four
wheels automatically, increasing the
stability of the vehicle.
NOTICE
• Depress the accelerator pedal softly
on the snow and the ice.
• Keep the distance from the vehicle in
the front.
• Prevent rapid acceleration,
deceleration and steering control.
Abrupt driving on the snow may
cause the accident.
