Immobiliser system
(if equipped)
The immobiliser system protects your
vehicle from theft. If an improperly cod-
ed key (or other device) is used, the
engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobiliser sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognise
the coding of the key.
Place the ignition switch to the LOCK/
OFF position, then place the ignition
switch to the ON position again.
The system may not recognise your
key’s coding if another immobiliser key
or other metal object (for example, key
chain) is near the key. The engine may
not start because the metal may inter-
rupt the transponder signal from trans-
mitting normally.
WARNING
In order to prevent theft of your
vehicle, do not leave spare keys
anywhere in your vehicle. Your
immobiliser password is a customer
unique password and should be
kept confidential.
NOTICE
The transponder in your key is an
important part of the immobiliser
system. It is designed to give years
of trouble-free service, however you
should avoid exposure to moisture,
static electricity and rough handling.
Immobiliser system malfunction
could occur.
If the system repeatedly does not rec-
ognise the coding of the key, it is rec-
ommended that you contact your
HYUNDAI dealer.
Do not attempt to alter this system or
add other devices to it. Electrical prob-
lems could result that may make your
vehicle inoperable.
