Warning message
Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) system disabled...
The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) System is designed to help detect
and monitor the vehicle ahead or detect a pedestrian (if equipped) in the roadway
through radar signals and camera recognition to warn the driver that a collision
is imminent, and if necessary, apply emergency braking...
Other information:
The Engine Start/Stop button must be in the ON position to be able to raise or
lower the windows. Each door has a Power Window switch to control that door's window.
The driver has a Power Window Lock switch which can block the operation of passenger
windows...
To equalize tread wear, HYUNDAI recommends that the tires be rotated every 7,500
miles (12,000 km) or sooner if irregular wear develops.
During rotation, check the tires for correct balance.
When rotating tires, check for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by incorrect tire pressure, improper wheel alignment, outof- balance wheels,
severe braking or severe cornering...
