!WARNING:
ABS (ESP) will not prevent accidents due to improper or dangerous driv- ing maneuvers. Even though vehiclecontrol is improved during emer- gency braking, always maintain a safe distance between you and ob-jects ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be reduced during extreme road conditions. The braking distance for cars equipped with an anti-lock braking system (Electronic Stability Program)may be longer than for those without it in the following road conditions. During these conditions, the ve-hicle should be driven at reduced speeds.
o Rough, gravel or snow-covered roads.
o With tire chains installed.
o On roads where the road surface
is pitted or has different surface height. The safety features of an ABS (ESP) equipped vehicle should not be testedby high speed driving or cornering. This could endanger the safety of yourself or others.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
C120A01FC-GAT (If Installed) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard- ous road surfaces. The ABS control module monitors the wheel speed andcontrols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus, in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS will increasevehicle control during braking. NOTE:
o A click sound may be heard in the engine compartment when the ve- hicle begins to move after the en- gine is started. These conditionsare normal and indicate that the anti-lock brake system (Electronic Stability Program) is functioningproperly.
o During ABS (ESP) operation, a
slight pulsation may be felt in thebrake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be heard in the engine compartment whilebraking. These conditions are normal and indicate that the anti- lock brake system (Electronic Sta-bility Program) is functioning prop- erly.

GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES
C130A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Nothing should be carried on top of the shelf panel behind the rear seat. If there were an accident or a sud-den stop, such objects could move forward and cause damage to the vehicle or injure the occupants.
o After being parked, check to be sure the parking brake is not engaged and that the parking brake indicator light is out before driving away.
o Driving through water may get the brakes wet. They can also get wet when the car is washed. Wet brakescan be dangerous! Your car will not stop as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes may cause the car to
pull to one side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakes lightly until the braking action returns to normal,taking care to keep the car under control at all times. If the braking action does not return to normal,stop as soon as it is safe to do so and call your Hyundai dealer for assistance.
CAUTION:
This system can only sense objectswithin the range and location of thesensors; It can not detect objects in other areas where sensors are not installed. Also, small or slim ob-jects, such as poles or objects lo- cated between sensors may not be detected by the sensors.Always visually check behind the vehicle when backing up. Be sure to inform any drivers of thevehicle that may be unfamiliar with the system regarding the systems capabilities and limitations.Your new vehicle warranty does not cover any accidents or damage to the vehicle or its occupants due to aback warning system malfunction. Always drive safely and cautiously.
! WARNING:
Pay close attention when the vehicle is driven close to objects on the road, particularly pedestrians, and especially children. Be aware thatsome objects may not be detected by the sensors, due to the object’s dis- tance, size or material, all of whichcan limit the effectiveness of the sensor. Always perform a visual inspection to make sure the vehicleis clear of all obstructions before moving the vehicle in any direction. NOTE: If you don’t hear an audible warning sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-mittently when shifting the gear to “R” position, this may indicate a malfunction in the back warning sys-tem. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer as soon as possible.
