If the engine stalls at a crossroad

or crossing

Depress the flasher switch with the igni-

tion switch in any position. The flasher

switch is located in the center console

switch panel. All turn signal lights will

flash simultaneously.

• If the engine stalls at a crossroad or

crossing, set the shift lever in the N

(Neutral) position and then push the

vehicle to a safe place.

• If your vehicle has a manual transaxle

not equipped with a ignition lock

switch, the vehicle can move forward

by shifting to the 2(second) or 3(third)

gear and then turning the starter with-

out depressing the clutch pedal.

• The hazard warning flasher operates

whether your vehicle is running or not.

OPA047059

Type B

• The turn signals do not work when the

hazard flasher is on.

• Care must be taken when using the

hazard warning flasher while the vehi-

cle is being towed.

F020200AUN

If you have a flat tire while driving

If a tire goes flat while you are driving:

1.Take your foot off the accelerator pedal

and let the car slow down while driving

straight ahead. Do not apply the brakes

immediately or attempt to pull off the

road as this may cause a loss of con-

trol. When the car has slowed to such

a speed that it is safe to do so, brake

carefully and pull off the road. Drive off

the road as far as possible and park on

firm, level ground. If you are on a divid-

ed highway, do not park in the median

area between the two traffic lanes.

OPA047104

1. If your car has an automatic transaxle,

be sure the gear selector lever is in N

(Neutral) or P (Park) and the emer-

gency brake is set.

1. Check fuel level.

2. With the ignition switch in the LOCK

position, check all connectors at the

ignition coils and spark plugs.

Reconnect any that may be discon-

nected or loose.

3.Have all passengers get out of the car.

Be sure they all get out on the side of

the car that is away from traffic.

2. Check the battery connections to be

sure they are clean and tight.

4.When changing a flat tire, follow the

instruction provided later in this sec-

tion.

3. Turn on the interior light. If the light

dims or goes out when you operate the

starter, the battery is discharged.

3. Check the fuel line in the engine com-

partment.

4. If the engine still does not start, call an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

F020300APA

4. Check the starter connections to be

sure they are securely tightened.

If engine stalls while driving

5. Do not push or pull the vehicle to start

it. See instructions for "Jump starting".

1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping

a straight line. Move cautiously off the

road to a safe place.

2. Turn on your emergency flashers.

WARNING

3. Try to start the engine again. If your

vehicle will not start, contact an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

If the engine will not start, do not

EMERGENCY STARTING

F040100AEN

Jumper Cables

Jump starting

WARNING - Battery

• Keep all flames or sparks away

from the battery. The battery pro-

duces hydrogen gas which may

explode if exposed to flame or

sparks.

Jump starting can be dangerous if done

incorrectly. Therefore, to avoid harm to

yourself or damage to your vehicle or

battery, follow the jump starting proce-

dures. If in doubt, we strongly recom-

mend that you have a competent techni-

cian or towing service jump start your

vehicle.

seek

qualified

assistance.

Use only a 12-volt jumper system.

You can damage a 12-volt starting

motor, ignition system, and other

electrical parts beyond repair by

use of a 24-volt power supply (either

two 12-volt batteries in series or a

24-volt motor generator set).

F040000AUN

Automobile batteries contain sul-

furic acid. This is poisonous and

highly corrosive. When jump

starting, wear protective glasses

and be careful not to get acid on

yourself, your clothing or on the

car.

Connect cables in numerical order and

disconnect in reverse order.

• Do not attempt to jump start the

vehicle if the discharged battery

is frozen or if the electrolyte level

is low; the battery may rupture or

explode.

WARNING - Battery

Never attempt to check the elec-

trolyte level of the battery as this

may cause the battery to rupture or

explode causing serious injury.

F040200AUN

CAUTION - Battery cables

Jump starting procedure

Push-starting

Do not connect the jumper cable

from the negative terminal of the

booster battery to the negative ter-

minal of the discharged battery.

This can cause the discharged bat-

tery to overheat and crack, releas-

ing battery acid.

1. Make sure the booster battery is 12-

volt and that its negative terminal is

grounded.

Your manual transaxle-equipped vehicle

should not be push-started because it

might damage the emission control sys-

tem.

2. If the booster battery is in another

vehicle, do not allow the vehicles to

touch.

Vehicles equipped with automatic

transaxle cannot be push-started.

3. Turn off all unnecessary electrical

loads.

Follow the directions in this section for

jump-starting.

4. Connect the jumper cables in the exact

sequence shown in the illustration.

First connect one end of a jumper

cable to the positive terminal of the

discharged battery (1), then connect

the other end to the positive terminal

on the booster battery (2).

5. Start the engine of the vehicle with the

booster battery and let it run at 2,000

rpm, then start the engine of the vehi-

cle with the discharged battery.

WARNING

Never tow a vehicle to start it

because the sudden surge forward

when the engine starts could cause

a collision with the tow vehicle.

If the cause of your battery discharging is

not apparent, you should have your vehi-

cle checked by an authorized HYUNDAI

dealer.

Proceed to connect one end of the

other jumper cable to the negative ter-

minal of the booster battery (3), then

the other end to a solid, stationary,

metallic point (for example, the engine

lifting bracket) away from the battery

(4). Do not connect it to or near any

part that moves when the engine is

cranked.

CAUTION - If equipped

with ISG (Idle Stop and Go)

• Do not recharge the battery with

conventional rechargers.

The battery may explode or be

damaged permanently.

• When replacing the battery, use

only the HYUNDAI genuine bat-

tery.

Do not allow the jumper cables to con-

tact anything except the correct battery

terminals or the correct ground. Do not

lean over the battery when making

connections.

What to do in an emergency

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS

F050000APA

4. Check to see if the water pump drive

belt is missing. If it is not missing,

check to see that it is tight. If the drive

belt seems to be satisfactory, check for

coolant leaking from the radiator,

hoses or under the car. (If the air con-

ditioning had been in use, it is normal

for cold water to be draining from it

when you stop).

6.If you cannot find the cause of the

overheating, wait until the engine tem-

perature has returned to normal. Then,

if coolant has been lost, carefully add

coolant to the reservoir to bring the

fluid level in the reservoir up to the

halfway mark.

If your temperature gauge indicates over-

heating, you experience a loss of power,

or hear loud pinging or knocking, the

engine is probably too hot. If this hap-

pens, you should:

1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it

is safe to do so.

7.Proceed with caution, keeping alert for

further signs of overheating. If over-

heating happens again, call an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.

2. Place the gear selector lever in P (auto-

matic transaxle) or Neutral (manual

transaxle) and set the parking brake. If

the air conditioning is on, turn it off.

WARNING

While the engine is running, keep

hair, hands and clothing away from

moving parts such as the fan and

drive belts to prevent injury.

CAUTION

3. If engine coolant is running out under

the car or steam is coming out from

the hood, stop the engine. Do not open

the hood until the coolant has stopped

running or the steaming has stopped.

If there is no visible loss of engine

coolant and no steam, leave the

engine running and check to be sure

the engine cooling fan is operating. If

the fan is not running, turn the engine

off.

Serious loss of coolant indicates

there is a leak in the cooling system

and this should be checked as soon

as possible by an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer.

5. If the water pump drive belt is broken

or engine coolant is leaking out, stop

the engine immediately and call the

nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer

for assistance.

WARNING

Do not remove the radiator cap

when the engine is hot. This can

allow coolant to be blown out of the

opening and cause serious burns.

4. Remove the wheel lug nut wrench,

jack, jack handle, and spare tire

from the vehicle.

6. Loosen the wheel lug nuts coun-

terclockwise one turn each, but do

not remove any nut until the tire

has been raised off the ground.

5. Block both the front and rear of the

wheel that is diagonally opposite

the jack position.

6 9

What to do in an emergency

9. Loosen the wheel nuts and

remove them with your fingers.

Slide the wheel off the studs and

lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To

put the wheel on the hub, pick up

the spare tire, line up the holes

with the studs and slide the wheel

onto them. If this is difficult, tip the

wheel slightly and get the top hole

in the wheel lined up with the top

stud. Then jiggle the wheel back

and forth until the wheel can be

slid over the other studs.

OPA067005

OPA067006

7. Place the jack at the front or rear 8. Insert the jack handle into the jack

jacking position closest to the tire

you are changing. Place the jack

at the designated locations under

the frame. The jacking positions

are plates welded to the frame

with two tabs and a raised dot to

index with the jack.

and turn it clockwise, raising the

vehicle until the tire just clears the

ground. This measurement is

approximately 30 mm (1.2 in).

Before removing the wheel lug

nuts, make sure the vehicle is sta-

ble and that there is no chance for

movement or slippage.

WARNING - Jack location

To reduce the possibility of

injury, be sure to use only the

jack provided with the vehicle

and in the correct jack position;

never use any other part of the

vehicle for jack support.

What to do in an emergency

10. To reinstall the wheel, hold it on

the studs, put the wheel nuts on

the studs and tighten them finger

tight.The nuts should be installed

with their tapered small diameter

ends directed inward. Jiggle the

tire to be sure it is completely

seated, then tighten the nuts as

much as possible with your fin-

gers again.

WARNING

Wheels and wheel covers may

have sharp edges. Handle them

carefully to avoid possible

severe injury. Before putting the

wheel into place, be sure that

there is nothing on the hub or

wheel (such as mud, tar, gravel,

etc.) that interferes with the

wheel from fitting solidly

against the hub.

11. Lower the car to the ground by

turning the wheel nut wrench

counterclockwise.

OPA067007

If there is, remove it. If there is

not good contact on the mount-

ing surface between the wheel

and hub, the wheel nuts could

come loose and cause the loss

of a wheel. Loss of a wheel may

result in loss of control of the

vehicle. This may cause serious

injury or death.

Then position the wrench as shown

in the drawing and tighten the wheel

nuts. Be sure the socket is seated

completely over the nut. Do not stand

on the wrench handle or use an

extension pipe over the wrench han-

dle. Go around the wheel tightening

every other nut until they are all tight.

Then double-check each nut for

tightness. After changing wheels,

have an authorized HYUNDAI dealer

tighten the wheel nuts to their proper

torque as soon as possible.

Wheel nut tightening torque:

Steel wheel & aluminum alloy wheel:

9~11 kg·m (65~79 lb·ft)

6 11

What to do in an emergency

If you have a tire gauge, remove the

valve cap and check the air pressure.

If the pressure is lower than recom-

mended, drive slowly to the nearest

service station and inflate to the cor-

rect pressure. If it is too high, adjust

it until it is correct. Always reinstall

the valve cap after checking or

adjusting tire pressure. If the cap is

not replaced, air may leak from the

tire. If you lose a valve cap, buy

another and install it as soon as pos-

sible.

CAUTION

WARNING - Wheel studs

If the studs are damaged, they

may lose their ability to retain

the wheel.This could lead to the

loss of the wheel and a collision

resulting in serious injuries.

Your vehicle has metric threads

on the wheel studs and nuts.

Make certain during wheel

removal that the same nuts that

were removed are reinstalled -

or, if replaced, that nuts with

metric threads and the same

chamfer configuration are used.

Installation of a non-metric

thread nut on a metric stud or

vice-versa will not secure the

wheel to the hub properly and

will damage the stud so that it

must be replaced.

To prevent the jack, jack handle,

wheel lug nut wrench and spare tire

from rattling while the vehicle is in

motion, store them properly.

After you have changed wheels,

always secure the flat tire in its place

and return the jack and tools to their

proper storage locations.

WARNING - Inadequate

spare tire pressure

Note that most lug nuts do not

have metric threads. Be sure to

use extreme care in checking

for thread style before installing

aftermarket lug nuts or wheels.

If in doubt, consult an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer.

Check the inflation pressures as

soon as possible after installing

the spare tire. Adjust it to the

specified pressure, if necessary.

Refer to “Tires and wheels” sec-

tion 9.

What to do in an emergency

F070301AUN

When using a compact spare tire,

observe the following precautions:

Important - use of compact spare tire

(if equipped)

WARNING

The compact spare tire is for

emergency use only. Do not

operate your vehicle on this

compact spare at speeds over

80 km/h (50 mph). The original

tire should be repaired or

replaced as soon as is possible

to avoid failure of the spare

possibly leading to personal

injury or death.

• Under no circumstances should

you exceed 80 km/h (50 mph); a

higher speed could damage the

tire.

Your vehicle is equipped with a com-

pact spare tire. This compact spare

tire takes up less space than a regu-

lar-size tire.This tire is smaller than a

conventional tire and is designed for

temporary use only.

• Ensure that you drive slowly

enough for the road conditions to

avoid all hazards. Any road hazard,

such as a pothole or debris, could

seriously damage the compact

spare.

CAUTION

• You should drive carefully

when the compact spare is in

use. The compact spare

should be replaced by the

proper conventional tire and

rim at the first opportunity.

• Any continuous road use of this tire

could result in tire failure, loss of

vehicle control, and possible per-

sonal injury.

The compact spare should be inflat-

ed to 420 kPa (60 psi).

• Do not exceed the vehicle’s maxi-

mum load rating or the load-carry-

ing capacity shown on the sidewall

of the compact spare tire.

✽

NOTICE

• The operation of this vehicle

is not recommended with

more than one compact spare

tire in use at the same time.

Check the inflation pressure after

installing the spare tire. Adjust it to

the specified pressure, as necessary.

• Avoid driving over obstacles. The

compact spare tire diameter is

smaller than the diameter of a con-

ventional tire and reduces the

ground clearance approximately

25 mm (1 inch), which could result

in damage to the vehicle.

should standard tires, snow tires,

wheel covers or trim rings be used

with the compact spare wheel. If

such use is attempted, damage to

these items or other car compo-

nents may occur.

• Do not use tire chains on the com-

pact spare tire. Because of the

smaller size, a tire chain will not fit

properly. This could damage the

vehicle and result in loss of the

chain.

• Do not use more than one compact

spare tire at a time.

What to do in an emergency

IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE (WITH TIREMOBILITYKIT, IF EQUIPPED)

Air pressure loss in the tire may

adversely affect tire performance.

For this reason, you should avoid

abrupt steering or other driving

maneuvers, especially if the vehicle

is heavily loaded or if a trailer is in

use. The TireMobilityKit is not

designed or intended as a perma-

nent tire repair method and is to be

used for one tire only.This instruction

shows you step by step how to tem-

porarily seal the puncture simply and

reliably.

using the TireMobilityKit.

With the TireMobilityKit you stay

mobile even after experiencing a tire

puncture. The system of compressor

and sealing compound effectively

and comfortably seals most punc-

tures in a passenger car tire caused

by nails or similar objects and rein-

flates the tire. After you ensured that

the tire is properly sealed you can

drive cautiously on the tire (up to 200

km (120 miles)) at a max. speed of

80 km/h (50 mph) in order to reach a

vehicle or tire dealer to have the tire

replaced. It is possible that some

tires, especially with larger punctures

or damage to the sidewall, cannot be

sealed completely.

What to do in an emergency

TOWING

It is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the

rear wheels on the ground (without dol-

lies) and the front wheels off the ground.

If any of the loaded wheels or suspen-

sion components are damaged or the

vehicle is being towed with the front

wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly

under the front wheels.

When being towed by a commercial tow

truck and wheel dollies are not used, the

front of the vehicle should always be lift-

ed, not the rear.

Towing service

CAUTION

If emergency towing is necessary, we

recommend having it done by an author-

ized HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial

tow-truck service. Proper lifting and tow-

ing procedures are necessary to prevent

damage to the vehicle. The use of wheel

dollies or flatbed is recommended.

• Do not tow the vehicle backwards

with the front wheels on the

ground as this may cause dam-

age to the vehicle.

• Do not tow with sling-type equip-

ment. Use wheel lift or flatbed

equipment.

For trailer towing guidelines information,

refer to “Trailer towing” in section 5.

6 20

What to do in an emergency

When towing your vehicle in an emer-

gency without wheel dollies :

1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC posi-

tion.

2. Place the transaxle shift lever in N

(Neutral).

3. Release the parking brake.

CAUTION

Failure to place the transaxle shift

lever in N (Neutral) may cause inter-

nal damage to the transaxle.

OPA067010

3. Install the towing hook by turning it

clockwise into the hole until it is fully

secured.

Removable towing hook (front)

(if equipped)

4. Remove the towing hook and install

the cover after use.

1. Open the tailgate, and remove the tow-

ing hook from the tool bag.

2. Remove the hole cover pressing the

lower part of the cover on the front

bumper.

6 21

What to do in an emergency

Front (if equipped)

If towing service is not available in an

emergency, your vehicle may be tem-

porarily towed using a cable or chain

secured to the emergency towing hook

under the front (or rear) of the vehicle.

Use extreme caution when towing the

vehicle. A driver must be in the vehicle to

steer it and operate the brakes.

CAUTION

• Attach a towing strap to the tow

hook.

• Using a portion of the vehicle

other than the tow hooks for tow-

ing may damage the body of your

vehicle.

Towing in this manner may be done only

on hard-surfaced roads for a short dis-

tance and at low speeds. Also, the

wheels, axles, power train, steering and

brakes must all be in good condition.

• Use only a cable or chain specifi-

cally intended for use in towing

vehicles. Securely fasten the

cable or chain to the towing hook

provided.

OPA067012

Rear

• Do not use the tow hooks to pull a vehi-

cle out of mud, sand or other condi-

tions from which the vehicle cannot be

driven out under its own power.

• Before emergency towing, check that

the hook is not broken or damaged.

• Fasten the towing cable or chain

securely to the hook.

• Avoid towing a vehicle heavier than the

vehicle doing the towing.

• The drivers of both vehicles should

communicate with each other frequent-

ly.

• Do not jerk the hook. Apply steady and

even force.

• To avoid damaging the hook, do not

pull from the side or at a vertical angle.

Always pull straight ahead.

Emergency towing

If towing is necessary, we recommend

you to have it done by an authorized

HYUNDAI dealer or a commercial tow

truck service.

6 22

What to do in an emergency

• More steering effort will be required

because the power steering system

will be disabled.

WARNING

Use extreme caution when towing

the vehicle.

• If you are driving down a long hill, the

brakes may overheat and brake per-

formance will be reduced. Stop often

and let the brakes cool off.

• Avoid sudden starts or erratic

driving maneuvers which would

place excessive stress on the

emergency towing hook and tow-

ing cable or chain. The hook and

towing cable or chain may break

and cause serious injury or dam-

age.

CAUTION - Automatic

transaxle

• If the car is being towed with all

four wheels on the ground, it can

be towed only from the front. Be

sure that the transaxle is in neu-

tral. Be sure the steering is

unlocked by placing the ignition

switch in the ACC position. A

driver must be in the towed vehi-

cle to operate the steering and

brakes.

OPA067014

• If the disabled vehicle is unable

to be moved, do not forcibly con-

tinue the towing. Contact an

authorized HYUNDAI dealer or a

commercial tow truck service for

assistance.

• Use a towing strap less than 5 m (16

feet) long. Attach a white or red cloth

(about 30 cm (12 inches) wide) in the

middle of the strap for easy visibility.

• Drive carefully so that the towing strap

is not loosened during towing.

• Tow the vehicle as straight ahead

as possible.

• Keep away from the vehicle dur-

ing towing.

• To avoid serious damage to the

automatic transaxle, limit the

vehicle speed to 15 km/h (10 mph)

and drive less than 1.5 km (1

mile) when towing.

F080301BUN

Emergency towing precautions

• Turn the ignition switch to ACC so the

steering wheel isn’t locked.

• Place the transaxle shift lever in N

(Neutral).

• Release the parking bake.

• Before towing, check the level of

the automatic transaxle fluid. If it

is below the "HOT" range on the

dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot

add fluid, a towing dolly must be

used.

• Press the brake pedal with more force

than normal since you will have

reduced brake performance.

EMERGENCY COMMODITY (IF EQUIPPED)

F110000AUN

F110200AUN

To check the tire pressure, take the fol-

lowing steps;

There are some emergency commodities

in the vehicle to help you respond to the

emergency situation.

First aid kit

1. Unscrew the inflation valve cap that is

located on the rim of the tire.

There are some items such as scissors,

bandage and adhesive tape and etc. in

the kit to give first aid to an injured per-

son.

2. Press and hold the gauge against the

tire valve. Some air will escape as you

begin and more will escape if you don't

press the gauge in firmly.

F110100AUN

Fire extinguisher

F110300AUN

If there is small fire and you know how to

use the fire extinguisher, take the follow-

ing steps carefully.

3. A firm non-leaking push will activate

the gauge.

Triangle reflector

Place the triangle reflector on the road to

warn oncoming vehicles during emer-

gencies, such as when the vehicle is

parked by the roadside due to any prob-

lems.

4. Read the tire pressure on the gauge to

know whether the tire pressure is low

or high.

1. Pull the pin at the top of the extin-

guisher that keeps the handle from

being accidentally pressed.

5. Adjust the tire pressures to the speci-

fied pressure. Refer to “Tires and

wheels” in section 9.

2. Aim the nozzle toward the base of the

fire.

3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ft) away

from the fire and squeeze the handle

to discharge the extinguisher. If you

release the handle, the discharge will

stop.

F110400AUN

6. Reinstall the inflation valve cap.

Tire pressure gauge

(If equipped)

Tires normally lose some air in day-to-

day use, and you may have to add a few

pounds of air periodically and it is not

usually a sign of a leaking tire, but of nor-

mal wear. Always check tire pressure

when the tires are cold because tire pres-

sure increases with temperature.

4. Sweep the nozzle back and forth at the

base of the fire. After the fire appears

to be out, watch it carefully since it

may re-ignite.
