Special Features
Hybrid vehicles sound different than
gasoline engine vehicles. When the
hybrid system operates, you may
hear a sound from the hybrid battery
system behind the rear seat. If you
apply the accelerator pedal rapidly,
you may hear an unconventional
sound. When you apply the brake
pedal, you may hear a sound from
the regenerative brake system.
When the hybrid system is turned off
or on, you may hear a sound in the
engine compartment. If you depress
the brake pedal repeatedly when the
hybrid system is turned on, you may
hear a sound in the engine compart-
ment. None of these sounds indicate
a problem.These are normal charac-
teristics of hybrid vehicles.
If any of following occur, it's a normal
condition if you hear a motor sound
in the engine compartment:
- After turning off the hybrid system,
the brake pedal is released.
- When the hybrid system is turned
off, the brake pedal is applied.
- When the driver door is opened.
When the hybrid system is turned
ON, the gasoline engine may acti-
vate or may not. In this situation, you
may feel a vibration. This does not
indicate a malfunction. When the
" " indicator illuminates, the
hybrid system is ready to begin driv-
ing. Even if the engine is off, you can
operate the vehicle as long as the
" " indicator is illuminated.
The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High volt-
age components, such as cables
and other parts, may emit electro-
magnetic waves. Even when the
electromagnetic cover blocks elec-
tromagnetic emissions, electro-
magnetic waves may have an
effect on electronic devices.When
your vehicle is not used for a long
period of time, the hybrid system
will discharge. You need to drive
the vehicle several times a month.
We recommend driving at least for
1 hour or 10 miles. When the
hybrid battery is discharged, or
when it is impossible to jump start
the vehicle, contact your HYUNDAI
dealer.
