2023 HYUNDAI SANTA FE HYBRID air condition

Foreword / Hybrid System Overview1-8
VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION AND EVENT DATA RECORDERS
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of
an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

[ How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

[ Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;

[ How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,

[ How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-
trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving
conditions and no personal data (for example, name, gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties,
such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

When the hybrid system is turned ON,
the gasoline engine may run or may not.
In this situation, you may feel a vibration.
This does not indicate a malfunction.
When the “
” indicator illuminates, the
hybrid system is ready to begin driving.
Even if the engine is off, you can operate
the vehicle as long as the “
” indicator
is illuminated.
NOTICE
The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High voltage
components, such as cables and other
parts, may emit electromagnetic waves.
Even when the electromagnetic cover
blocks electromagnetic emissions,
electromagnetic waves may have an
effect on electronic devices. When your
vehicle is not used for a long period of
time, the hybrid system will discharge.
You need to drive the vehicle several
times a month. Driving at least for
1 hour or 10 miles. When the hybrid
battery is discharged, or when it is
impossible to jump start the vehicle,
you contact your authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING

[ When you start the hybrid system
with the shift button in P (Parking),
the “
” indicator illuminates on
the instrument cluster. The driver
can drive the vehicle, even when the
gasoline engine is off.

[ When you leave the vehicle, you
should turn OFF the hybrid system
or locate the shift button in P (Park).
When you depress the accelerator
pedal by mistake, or when the shift
button is not in P (Park), the vehicle
will abruptly move, possibly resulting
in serious injury or death.
Virtual Engine Sound System (VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System
generates engine sound for pedestrians
to hear vehicle sound because there is
limited sound while motor power is used.

[When the engine is running, the gear
shift button is not in P (Park), the VESS
will operate.

[ When the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse), an additional warning
sound will be heard.
What does regenerative braking do?
It uses an electric motor when
decelerating and when braking and
transforms kinetic energy to electrical
energy in order to charge the high
voltage battery.
Battery

[The vehicle is composed of a high
voltage battery that drives the motor
and air conditioner, and external AGM
type 12V battery that drives the lamps,
wipers, and audio system.

[ The battery is automatically charged
when the vehicle is in the ready (
)
mode.

This chapter provides you with important information about how to protect yourself and your
passengers. It explains how to properly use your seats and seat belts, and how your air bags work.
Additionally, this chapter explains how to properly restrain infants and children in your vehicle.

Seats & Safety System3-2
You will find many safety precautions
and recommendations throughout this
section, and throughout this manual.
The safety precautions in this section are
among the most important.
Always Wear Your Seat Belt
A seat belt is your best protection in all
types of accidents. Air bags are designed
to supplement seat belts, not to replace
them. So even though your vehicle is
equipped with air bags, ALWAYS make
sure you and your passengers wear your
seat belts, and wear them properly.
Restrain All Children
All children under age 13 should ride
in your vehicle properly restrained in a
rear seat, not the front seat. Infants and
small children should be restrained in
an appropriate Child Restraint System.
Larger children should use a booster
seat with the lap/shoulder belt until they
can use the seat belt properly without a
booster seat.
Air Bag Hazards
While air bags can save lives, they can
also cause serious or fatal injuries to
occupants who sit too close to them, or
who are not properly restrained. Infants,
young children, and short adults are at
the greatest risk of being injured by an
inflating air bag. Follow all instructions
and warnings in this manual.
Driver Distraction
Driver distraction presents a serious and
potentially deadly danger, especially for
inexperienced drivers. Safety should be
the first concern when behind the wheel
and drivers need to be aware of the wide
array of potential distractions, such as
drowsiness, reaching for objects, eating,
personal grooming, other passengers,
and using mobile phones. Drivers can become distracted when
they take their eyes and attention off
the road or their hands off the wheel to
focus on activities other than driving.
To reduce your risk of distraction and an
accident:

[
Set up your mobile devices (i.e., MP3
players, phones, navigation units, etc.)
ONLY when your vehicle is parked or
safely stopped.

[ ONLY use your mobile device when
allowed by laws and conditions permit
safe use. NEVER text or email while
driving. Most countries have laws
prohibiting drivers from texting. Some
countries and cities also prohibit
drivers from using handheld phones.

[ NEVER let the use of a mobile device
distract you from driving. You have a
responsibility to your passengers and
others on the road to always drive
safely, with your hands on the wheel
as well as your eyes and attention on
the road.
Control Your Speed
Excessive speed is a major factor in crash
injuries and deaths. Generally, the higher
the speed, the greater the risk, but
serious injuries can also occur at lower
speeds. Never drive faster than is safe
for current conditions, regardless of the
maximum speed posted.
Keep Your Vehicle in Safe
Condition
Having a tire blowout or a mechanical
failure can be extremely hazardous. To
reduce the possibility of such problems,
check your tire pressures and condition
frequently, and perform all regularly
scheduled maintenance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

OLMB033040
The Pre-Tensioner Seat Belt System
consists mainly of the following
components. Their locations are shown
in the illustration above:
(1) SRS air bag warning light
(2) Retractor pre-tensioner
(3) SRS control module
(4) Emergency fastening device
NOTICE
The sensor that activates the SRS
control module is connected with the
pre–tensioner seat belts. The SRS air
bag warning light on the instrument
cluster will illuminate for approximately
3~6 seconds after the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the ON position, and then it
should turn off.
If the pre-tensioner is not working
properly, the warning light will
illuminate even if the SRS air bag is not
malfunctioning. If the warning light
does not illuminate, stays illuminated
or illuminates when the vehicle is
being driven, the pre-tensioner seat
belts and/or SRS control module be
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
Information

[Pre-tensioner seat belts may be
activated in certain frontal or side
collisions or rollover situations (if
equipped with rollover sensor).

[ When the pre-tensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard
and fine dust, which may appear to be
smoke, may be visible in the passenger
compartment. These are normal
operating conditions and are not
hazardous.

[ Although it is non-toxic, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should
not be inhaled for prolonged periods.
Wash all exposed skin areas thoroughly
after an accident in which the pre-
tensioner seat belts were activated.
