ECS controls the vehicle suspension
automatically to maximize passenger
comfort by using the air spring in the
suspension.
You can also control the vehicle sus-
pension manually in NORMAL mode
or HIGH mode.
To control the vehicle height
• Push the vehicle height control but-
ton to select the HIGH mode that
makes the vehicle height be higher
than the NORMAL mode and the
indicator light on the vehicle height
control button will illuminate. It is
useful in a rough road.
• Push the vehicle height control but-
ton again to select the NORMAL
mode that makes the vehicle
height lower than the HIGH mode.
The indicator light in the vehicle
height control button will go off.
• When the vehicle stops with the
shift lever in P(Park) or N(Neutral),
you may change the vehicle height.
• When you drive under 70km/h, you
may select the HIGH mode.
• If the vehicle speed exceeds
70km/h while driving in the HIGH
mode, the NORMAL mode will be
selected automatically.• If the vehicle speed exceeds
120km/h while driving in NORMAL
mode, the LOW mode that is lower
than NORMAL mode will be select-
ed automatically. LOW mode can
not be selected manually.
• When you drive under 80km/h in
the LOW mode, the NORMAL
mode will be selected automatical-
ly.
• When the engine start/stop button
is turned off with the HIGH mode
selected, the HIGH mode will be
maintained.
It is to prevent damage under the
vehicle when parked in rough
roads.
• The height of the vehicle may be
adjusted after the engine start/stop
button is turned off for 2 hours/
5 hours/10 hours.
It is to compensate vehicle height
affected by outside temperature.

ECS (electronic controlled
suspension) malfunction
warning message
If ECS malfunction warning message
comes on while driving, ECS is not
working properly.
We recommend that the system be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽ NOTICE
• Make sure there are no objects
under the vehicle before changing
the vehicle height.
• A click sound may be heard while
operating ECS, but these condi-
tions are normal and indicate that
ECS is functioning properly.
• Depending on the outside temper-
ature the vehicle height may be
different.
• When the vehicle is parked with
one side of the vehicle lifted or
vehicle speed is suddenly acceler-
ated/decelerated or the steering
wheel is suddenly turned, the
height may not temporarily be
adjusted. This is to protect the sys-
tem.
• When one side of the vehicle was
lifted with a jack, the height may
not temporarily be adjusted. The
ECS will operate normally when
the engine is turned on again or
when the vehicle is accelerated.
• When the vehicle is not driven for
a long period of time, vehicle
height may get low. The ECS will
operate normally when the engine
is turned on.
