Electric power steering (EPS)
The system assists you with steering
the vehicle. If the engine is off or if
the power steering system becomes
inoperative, the vehicle may still be
steered, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Also, the steering effort becomes
heavier as the vehicle’s speed
increases and becomes lighter as
the vehicle’s speed decreases for
better control of the steering wheel.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, we recommend
that the system be checked by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
✽NOTICE
The following may occur during
normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high
immediately after placing the igni-
tion switch in the ON position.
This happens as the system per-
forms the EPS system diagnostics.
When the diagnostics is complet-
ed, the steering wheel will return
to its normal condition.
• A click noise may be heard from
the EPS relay after the ignition
switch is placed in the ON or
LOCK/OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when
the vehicle is at stop or at a low
driving speed.
• When you operate the steering
wheel in low temperatures, abnor-
mal noise may occur. If the tem-
perature rises, the noise will disap-
pear. This is a normal condition.
STEERING WHEEL
CAUTION
If the Electric Power Steering
System does not operate nor-
mally, the warning light ( ) will
illuminate on the instrument
cluster. The steering wheel may
become difficult to control or
operate. Take your vehicle to an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked as
soon as possible.

Features of your vehicle

COMFORT mode
The steering effort comes lighter in
COMFORT mode.
✽NOTICE
For your safety, if you press the
steering mode button to change the
mode whilst turning the steering
wheel, the cluster will change as you
have selected, but the steering effort
will not change. The steering effort
will change to the selected mode,
when the steering wheel is reposi-
tioned centrally.
Horn
To sound the horn, press the area
indicated by the horn symbol on your
steering wheel (see illustration). The
horn will operate only when this area
is pressed.
CAUTION
• Be careful when changing the
steering mode whilst driving.
• When the Electric Power
Steering is not working prop-
erly, the Flex Steering Wheel
will not work.OMD040030
CAUTION
Do not strike the horn severely
to operate it, or hit it with your
fist. Do not press on the horn
with a sharp-pointed object.
