engine oil (mineral oil including Semi-synthetic) is used, then the engine oil and engine
oil filter must be replaced as indicated severe maintenance condition.

Recommended SAE Viscosity Number
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before
checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy
areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick
areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that
could be damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can
provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any
viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated
in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from
the chart.

Rear Seats
Folding the rear seat
The right and left seat bottoms can be
folded independently to increase the
luggage capacity of the vehicle.
WARNING
Be careful when carrying a stack of
objects in the second row. If the objects
extend higher than the top of the front
seatbacks, they could inadvertently
slide forward when decelerating and
possibly cause injury or damage during
sudden stops.
ONX4OB031002ONX4OB031002
1. Pull the strap to unlock the seat.
2. Lift up the seat bottom.
3. Push the seat bottom firmly against
the seatback to lock it into place.
Unfolding the rear seat
ONX4OB031003ONX4OB031003
1. Pull the strap to unlock the seat.
2. Carefully lower the seat bottom to
the normal seating position. The seat
bottom will remain in place under its
own weight.
WARNING
Make sure the engine is off, the shift
lever is in P (Park), and the parking
brake is securely applied whenever
loading or unloading cargo. Failure to
take these steps may allow the vehicle
to move if the shift lever is inadvertently
moved to another position.
CAUTION
Be careful when loading cargo through
the rear passenger seats to prevent
damage to the vehicle interior.
WARNING
Cargo should always be secured to
prevent it from being thrown about the
vehicle in a collision and causing injury
to the vehicle occupants. Do not place
objects in the rear seats, since they
cannot be properly secured and may hit
the front seat occupants in a collision.

• When pressing the switch for more
than 1.5 seconds with the seat warmer
operating, the seat warmer will turn
OFF.
• The seat warmer defaults to the OFF
position whenever the ignition switch
is ON.
• Auto Comfort Control (for driver’s
seat) (if equipped)
- The seat warmer automatically
controls the seat temperature
depending on the ambient
temperature and the set climate
control temperature when the
engine is running. If the seat
warmer switch is pushed, the seat
warmer will have to be controlled
manually.
To use this function, it must be
activated from the Settings menu in
the AV/AVN system screen.
- The seat warmer defaults to the
OFF position whenever the ignition
switch is ON. However, if the Auto
Comfort Control function is ON, the
driver’s seat warmer will turn on
and off depending on the ambient
temperature and the set climate
control temperature.
For more details, refer to the separately
supplied Infotainment manual with
your vehicle.
Information
With the seat warmer switch in the ON
position, the heating system in the seat
turns off or on automatically depending on
the seat temperature.
Air Ventilation Seat (if equipped)
ONX4OB031026ONX4OB031026
The air ventilation seats are provided
to cool the front seats by blowing air
through small vent holes on the surface
of the seat cushions and seatbacks.
When the operation of the air ventilation
seat is not needed, keep the switches in
the OFF position.
While the engine is running, push the
switch to cool the driver's seat or the
front passenger's seat.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the air ventilation
seats:
• Never use a solvent such as paint
thinner, benzene, alcohol or gasoline
to clean the seats.
• Avoid spilling liquids on the surface
of the front seats and seatbacks; this
may cause the air vent holes to block
and not work properly.
• Do not place materials such as plastic
bags or newspapers under the seats.
They may block the air intake causing
malfunction of the air vent.
• Do not change the seat covers. It may
damage the air ventilation seat.
• If the air vents do not operate, restart
the vehicle. If there is no change,
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

How does the SRS Air Bag
System Operate?
ONX4OB031014ONX4OB031014
The SRS consists of the following
components:
(1) Driver's front air bag module
(2) Passenger's front air bag module
(3) Side air bag modules
(4) Curtain air bag modules
(5) Retractor pre-tensioner
(6) Air bag warning light
(7) SRS control module (SRSCM)/
Rollover sensor
(8) Front impact sensors
(9) Side impact sensors
(10) Side pressure sensors
(11) Emergency fastening device system
(12) Occupant classification system
(13) Seat belt buckle sensor
The SRSCM continually monitors all SRS
components while the ignition switch
is ON to determine if a crash impact
is severe enough to require air bag
deployment or pre-tensioner seat belt
deployment.
SRS warning light
The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
air bag warning light on the instrument
panel displays the air bag symbol
depicted in the illustration. The system
checks the air bag electrical system for
malfunctions. The light indicates that
there is a potential problem with your
air bag system, which could include
your side and/or curtain air bags used
for rollover protection (if equipped with
rollover sensor).
WARNING
If your SRS malfunctions, the air bag
may not inflate properly during an
accident increasing the risk of serious
injury or death.
If any of the following conditions occur,
your SRS is malfunctioning:
• The light does not turn on for
approximately three to six seconds
when the Engine Start/Stop button is
in the ON position.
• The light stays on after illuminating
for approximately three to six
seconds.
• The light comes on while the vehicle
is in motion.
• The light blinks when the engine is
running.
Have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
inspect the SRS as soon as possible if
any of these conditions occur.
