Hyundai Santa Fe (TM): Emergency situations / If the engine will not start

• Be sure to shift the gear to N (Neutral) or P (Park). The engine starts only when the gear is in N (Neutral) or P (Park).
• Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate the starter, the battery is drained. See instructions for “Jump Starting” provided in this chapter.
• Check the fuel level and add fuel if necessary.

If the vehicle still does not start, we recommend that you call an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.

NOTICE

Push or pull starting the vehicle may cause the catalytic converter to overload which can lead to damage to the emission control system.
