BATTERY. 
If swallowed, a lithium button battery 

can cause severe or fatal injuries within 

2 hours. Keep batteries out of reach of 

children. 
If you think batteries may have been 

swallowed or placed inside any part 

of the body, seek immediate medical 

attention. 

 Information

regulations.

Immobilizer System (if 

equipped)

The immobilizer system helps protect 

your vehicle from theft. If an improperly 

coded key (or other device) is used, the 

engine’s fuel system is disabled.
When the Engine Start/Stop button 

is pressed to the ON position, the 

immobilizer system indicator should 

come on briefly, then go off. If the 

indicator starts to blink, the system does 

not recognize 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 recognize your 

key’s coding if another immobilizer 

key or other metal object (for example, 

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 

recognize 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.

Convenience Features

immobilizer password is a customer 

unique password and should be kept

NOTICE

The transponder in your key is an 

important part of the immobilizer 

system. It is designed to give years 

of trouble-free service, however you 

should avoid exposure to moisture, 

static electricity and rough handling. 

Immobilizer system malfunction could 

occur.
