H11
When the hybrid system is turned on, the
engine may run or not. In this situation,
you may feel a vibration. This does not
indicate a malfunction. If the "READY"
symbol is turned on, the hybrid system
starts. Even if the engine is off, you can
operate the vehicle as long as the
"READY" symbol is illuminated.
Virtual Engine Sound System
(VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System gener-
ates engine sound for pedestrians to
hear vehicle sound because there is lim-
ited sound while motor power is used at
speeds below 18 mph.
WARNING
When you start the hybrid system
in the "P" transmission position,
the "READY" symbol is illuminat-
ed in the cluster. The driver can
drive the vehicle even if the
engine is stopped.
When you leave the vehicle, you
should turn off the hybrid system
or shift into the "P" position. If
you depress the accelerator pedal
by mistake and the vehicle is not
in the "P" position, the vehicle will
move abruptly. This may result in
serious injury or death.
CAUTION
The hybrid system contains many
electronic components. High volt-
age components like cables and
other parts may emit electromag-
netic waves.Even if the electromag-
netic cover blocks electromagnetic
emissions, electromagnetic waves
may have an effect on electronic
appliances. If you park the vehicle
for a long time, the hybrid system
will discharge.You need to drive the
vehicle several times per month.We
recommend driving at least 1 hour
or 10 miles when you drive the vehi-
cle. If the hybrid battery is dis-
charged and if it is impossible to
jump start the vehicle contact your
Hyundai dealer.
