Driving Your Vehicle
6-14
• 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 pedal.
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
System (Paddle Shifter)
Regenerative braking system operates
the paddle shifter to control the
regenerative braking intensity of the
vehicle. It improves the fuel efficiency of
the vehicle and helps the driver to have a
better driving experience.
Information The regenerative braking system uses the
electric motor to engage the brake. The
electric motor converts the kinetic energy
generated from decelerating the vehicle to
electricity and charges the high voltage
battery.

Using Regenerative Braking
System
Operating paddle shifter
Operate the paddle shifter as shown
below to use the regenerative braking
system.
B6001901
• Pull the left paddle shifter ( ) once to raise the regenerative braking intensity
level by 1. It will increase decelerating
intensity.
• Pull the right paddle shifter ( ) once to lower the regenerative braking
Hyundai_CE_en_US.book Page 14

6-15
intensity level by 1. It will decrease
decelerating intensity.
• Pull and hold the left paddle shifter ( ) for over 0.5 seconds to keep
raising the regenerative braking
intensity level. Holding the paddle
shifter brings the vehicle to stop. (For
more information, refer to the "One
Pedal Driving" section in this chapter.)
• While the smart regeneration system is turned on, pull and hold the right
paddle shifter ( ) for over 1 second to
turn off the smart regeneration system.
(For more information, refer to the
"Smart Regeneration System" section
in this chapter.)
Checking the amount of
regenerative braking
B6001902
The selected regenerative braking level
appears on the instrument cluster.
• When the vehicle is turned off and on again after the regenerative braking
level is in 0, the braking level is changed
to 1.
• When the vehicle is turned off and on again after the i-PEDAL is on, the
braking level is changed to 3.
Regenerative Braking System
Limitations
Regenerative braking intensity cannot be
changed using the paddle shifter in the
following situations when:
• The ( ) and ( ) paddle shifters are pulled at the same time.
• The vehicle is decelerating by depressing the brake pedal.
• Smart Cruise Control is activated.
• The regenerative braking is continuously operated with the battery
fully charged
• The SNOW mode is activated
Initial setting of the regenerative braking
level and adjustable range may vary
according to the selected Drive mode.
For more information, refer to the "All
Wheel Drive (AWD)" section in this
chapter.
One Pedal Driving
One pedal driving operates the paddle
shifter while coasting to control the
intensity of regenerative braking. It
assists the driver to stop the vehicle
without depressing the brake.
Information Coasting is the process of driving a vehicle
without the brake pedal and the accelerator
pedal depressed. Coasting uses the inertia of
driving energy instead of the vehicle power.
