ing correctly, contact an authorized  
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.  
Immobilizer System  
The immobilizer system protects your  
vehicle from theft. If an improperly  
coded key (or other device) is used,  
the engine’s fuel system is disabled.  
When the ignition switch is placed in  
the ON position, the immobilizer sys-  
tem indicator should come on briefly,  
then go off. If the indicator starts to  
blink, the system does not recognize  
the coding of the key.  
WARNING  
i
Information  
In order to prevent theft of your  
vehicle, do not leave spare keys  
anywhere in your vehicle. Your  
immobilizer password is a cus-  
tomer unique password and  
should be kept confidential.

An inappropriately disposed  
battery can be harmful to the  
environment and human health.  
Dispose of the battery according  
to your local law(s) or regula-  
tions.  
Turn the ignition switch to the  
LOCK/OFF position, then turn the igni-  
tion switch to the ON position again.  
NOTICE  
The system may not recognize your  
key’s coding if another immobilizer  
key or other metal object (i.e., 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.  
The transponder in your key is an  
important part of the immobilizer  
system. It is designed to give  
years of trouble-free service, how-  
ever you should avoid exposure to  
moisture, static electricity and  
rough handling. Immobilizer sys-  
tem malfunction could occur.
