SNOW mode (if equipped)
SNOW mode helps the
driver to drive more effec-
tively on slippery roads
such as snowy or muddy
roads.
When the DRIVE MODE switch is
pressed for more than one second,
the SNOW mode will operate
regardless of whichever drive
mode (NORMAL/ECO/SPORT) is
operating. If the switch is pressed
once more, the drive mode (NOR-
MAL/ECO/SPORT) that was oper-
ating previously will operate.The Electronic Control Suspension
(ECS) controls the vehicle suspen-
sion automatically to maximize driv-
ing comfort by taking into account
the driving conditions such as speed,
surface of the road, cornering, stop-
ping requirements and acceleration.
ECS (Electronic Control
Suspension) malfunction indi-
cator
If the ECS warning message comes
on, you may have a problem with the
ECS system. Have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
