Immobiliser system

WARNING

The immobiliser system protects your

vehicle from theft. If an improperly

coded key (or other device) is used, the

HQJLQHŔVꢀIXHOꢀV\VWHPꢀLVꢀGLVDEOHGꢂ

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.

When the ignition switch is placed in

the ON position, the immobiliser system

indicator should come on briefly, then

go off. If the indicator starts to blink, the

system does not recognise the coding of

the key.

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.

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

NH\ŔVꢀFRGLQJꢀLIꢀDQRWKHUꢀLPPRELOLVHUꢀNH\ꢀ

or other metal object (i.e., key chain) is

near the key. The engine may not start

because the metal may interrupt the

transponder signal from transmitting

normally.

If the system repeatedly does not

recognise the coding of the key, it is

recommended that you contact your

HYUNDAI dealer.

Do not attempt to alter this system

or add other devices to it. Electrical

problems could result that may make

your vehicle inoperable.
