Accessing Your Vehicle

Smart Key

Your HYUNDAI is equipped with a Smart Key, which you can use to lock or unlock the doors (and the tailgate) and even start the vehicle.

1. Door lock
2. Door unlock
3. Tailgate unlock
4. Panic

Locking

To lock:

1. Close all doors, the hood and the tailgate.

2. Either press the door handle button or press the door lock button (1) on the smart key.

3. The hazard warning lights flash and the horn sounds.

4. Make sure the doors are locked by checking the position of the door lock button inside the vehicle.

Information

The door handle button will only work when the Smart Key is within 28~40 in. (0.7~1 m) of the outside door handle.

Even if you press the button on the outside door handle, the doors will not lock, and the horn will sound for three seconds if any of the following occurs:

• The smart key is inside the vehicle.
• The ENGINE START/STOP button is in the ACC or ON position.
• Any door other than the luggage compartment door is open.

WARNING

Do not leave the Smart Key in the vehicle with children unattended. Unattended children may press the ENGINE START/STOP button, operate the power windows or other controls, or even cause the vehicle to move, which may result in serious injury or death.

Unlocking

To unlock:

1. Carry the Smart Key.

2. Either press the button on the driver's outside door handle, or press the unlock button (2) on the Smart Key.

3. The driver's door will unlock. The hazard warning lights will flash twice.

If you press the driver's door outside handle button or the Smart Key unlock button again within four seconds, all doors will unlock.

Two-Press Unlock Setting:

The Two-Press Unlock setting can be changed according to the owner's preference.

Select or deselect the "Two-Press Unlock" option in the user settings mode on the LCD display (User Settings ➞ Door, then select or deselect Two-Press Unlock).

Information

• The door handle button will only work when the Smart Key is within 28~40 in. (0.7~1 m) of the outside door handle. Other people may also be able to open the doors.
• If you press the front passenger's outside door handle while carrying the Smart Key, all doors will unlock.
• After the doors are unlocked, they will automatically lock again after 30 seconds if no door is opened.
• The driver's or front passenger's door can be opened together with the door handle button when the Smart Key is within this range.

Unlocking the Tailgate

To unlock:

1. Carry the Smart Key.

2. Either press the button on the tailgate handle, or press and hold the tailgate unlock button (3) on the Smart Key for more than one second.

3. The hazard warning lights will flash twice.

Information

• The button on the tailgate handle will only work when the Smart Key is within 28 in. (0.7 m) of the tailgate handle.

Panic button

Press and hold the panic button (4) for more than one second. The horn sounds and the hazard warning lights flash for approximately 30 seconds. To cancel panic mode, press any button on the Smart Key.

Starting

You can start the vehicle without inserting the key.

NOTICE

To prevent damage to the Smart Key:

• Keep the Smart Key away from liquids and fire. Internal circuits may malfunction if the inside of the Smart Key gets wet (from liquid or moisture) or if it overheats. This may exclude the Smart Key from warranty coverage.
• Do not drop or throw the Smart Key.
• Protect the Smart Key from extreme temperatures.

Mechanical Key

If the Smart Key does not function normally, you can lock or unlock the driver's door with the mechanical key.

Press and hold the unlock button (1) and remove the mechanical key (2). Insert the mechanical key into the door lock cylinder.

To reinstall the mechanical key, insert the key into the slot and push it in until a click is heard.

Lost Smart Key

No more than two Smart Keys can be registered to one vehicle. If you lose a Smart Key, immediately take the vehicle and remaining keys to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer, or have the vehicle towed if necessary.

Smart Key Precautions

The Smart Key may not operate in the following cases:

• The Smart Key is near a radio transmitter, such as a radio station or airport, which may interfere with normal transmitter operation.
• The Smart Key is near a two-way mobile radio system or cellular phone.
• A Smart Key of another vehicle is used near your vehicle. If the Smart Key malfunctions, lock or unlock the door with the mechanical key. If you have a problem with the Smart Key, contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. If the Smart Key is located very close to your mobile phone, the signal may be blocked by the normal operating signals of your mobile phone. This is especially likely when the phone is in use, for example when making and receiving calls, sending and receiving text messages, and/or sending and receiving e-mails. Avoid placing the Smart Key and your mobile phone in the same location, and always try to keep a sufficient distance between the two devices.

NOTICE

Keep the Smart Key away from electromagnetic materials that block electromagnetic waves to the key surface.

NOTICE

Always carry the Smart Key with you when leaving the vehicle. If the Smart Key is left near the vehicle, the vehicle battery may be discharged.
