Do not leave the smart key in your vehicle with children that are unattended or unsupervised.

Children could unintentionally press the Engine Start/Stop button or could operate the power windows or other vehicle controls or even cause the vehicle to move. This may result in serious injury or death.

Before you leave your vehicle with the smart key, verify that your vehicle is locked. When using the touch sensor on the front door handle, listen to hear that the lock has actuated, and then pull the handle within 3 seconds to confirm the doors are locked. (If it has been longer than 3 seconds, verify the doors are locked by pressing the lock button on the smart key. You can hear a single beep.)

ď Unlocking your vehicle

Press the Door Unlock button on the smart key.

  • The chime sounds and hazard warning lights blink two times.

  • The infotainment system may change after software updates. For more information, refer to the user's manual provided in the infotainment system and the quick reference guide.

  • The smart key is close to a radio transmitter such as radio station or airport that may interfere with normal operation of the transmitter.

  • The smart key is near a mobile two way radio system or a mobile phone.

  • Another vehicle's smart key is being operated close to your vehicle.

  • The smart key is near any normal electronic devices or credit cards.

  • The vehicle battery is discharged.

  • Connecting an external device to the power outlet and placing the smart key near the external device.

  • If your windows are tinted, especially with metallic window tint, it may cause frequency interference, reducing the smart key operating range.

If you have a problem with the smart key, contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
