WARNING
We recommend that you use
parts for replacement from an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer. If an
aftermarket key is used, the igni-
tion switch may not return to ON
after START. If this happens, the
starter will continue to operate
causing damage to the starter
motor and possible fire due to
excessive current in the wiring.
WARNING
Ignition key (Smart key)
Leaving children unattended in
a vehicle with the ignition key
(smart key) is dangerous even if
the key is not in the ignition
switch or the ENGINE START/
STOP button is in the ACC or ON
position. Children copy adults
and they could place the key in
the ignition switch or press the
ENGINE START/STOP button.
The ignition key (smart key)
would enable children to oper-
ate power windows or other
controls, or even make the vehi-
cle move, which could result in
serious bodily injury or even
death. Never leave the keys in
your vehicle with unsupervised
children, when the engine is
running.
