Electric Power Steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the vehicle is turned off
or if the power steering system
becomes inoperative, you may still
steer the vehicle, but it will require
increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
 The steering effort may be high immediately after placing the
POWER button in the ON position.
This happens as the system performs
the EPS system diagnostics. When
the diagnostics is completed, the
steering wheel will return to its nor-
mal condition.
 A click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the POWER button
is in the ON or OFF position.
 Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
 When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal noise
may occur. If temperature rises, the
noise will disappear. This is a normal
condition.  When an error is detected from the
EPS, the assistant function of steer-
ing effort will not be activated in
order to prevent fatal accidents.
Instrument cluster warning lights
may be on or the steering effort may
be high. When the following symp-
toms occur, immediately drive the
vehicle to a safe area and check it.

Programming HomeLink®
Please note the following:
When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park the
vehicle outside of the garage.
It is recommended that a new bat- tery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink ®
for quicker
training and accurate transmission
of the radio-frequency signal.
Some vehicles may require the POWER button to be placed in the
ACC (or "Accessories") position for
programming and/or operation ofHomeLink ®
.
In the event that there are still pro- gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming
steps listed below, contactHomeLink ®
at: www.homelink.com
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
Rolling code programming
Rolling code devices which are
"code-protected" and manufactured
after 1996 may be determined by the
following:
Reference the device owner’s manual for verification.
The handheld transmitter appears to program the HomeLink ®
Universal Transceiver but does not
activate the device.
Press and hold the trained HomeLink button. The device has
the rolling code feature if the indi-
cator light flashes rapidly and then
turns solid after 2 seconds.
Before programming HomeLink
®
to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure people and
objects are out of the way of the
device to prevent potential harm
or damage. Do not use theHomeLink ®
with any garage door
opener that lacks the safety stop
and reverse features required by
federal safety standards (this
includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April
1, 1982). A garage door that can-not detect an object - signaling
the door to stop and reverse -
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-tures increases the risk of seri-
ous injury or death.WARNING
