2016 Hyundai Equus Owner's Manual

Electronic Hydraulic Power
Steering (EHPS)
This system uses an electromotor to
assist your steering. When the
engine is turned OFF, or when the
EHPS becomes inoperative, you
may still steer the vehicle, but it
requires more effort in steering.
When you notice such a change
while steering, have the EHPS
checked by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.
Do not turn the steering wheel to
the extreme right or left for five
seconds or over, while running the
engine. This may cause damage to
the EHPS motor pump.
Information
When there is a malfunction with the
EHPS motor pump, the efforts to steer
may greatly increase.
Information
When the vehicle is parked outside for
an extended period of time at a cold
temperature (below 14°F/-10°C), the
power steering may require more
efforts, after first starting the engine.
This is due to the increased fluid vis-
cosity at a cold temperature and does
not indicate a malfunction.
When this happens, depress the accel-
erator to increase the engine RPM,
until it reaches 1,500 rpm. Then, let
the engine idle for two-to-three min-
utes to warm up the fluid.
Tilt Steering/Telescope Steering
Adjust the steering wheel angle (2)
and position (3) with the knob (1) on
the steering column. Move the steer-
ing wheel, so it points toward your
chest, not toward your face. Make
sure you can monitor the warning
lights and gauges on the instrument
cluster. After adjusting, slightly push
up and down the steering wheel to
assure that it is locked in position.
Always adjust the position of the
steering wheel before driving.

Automatic-Dimming Night Vision
Safety™ (NVS®) Mirror
The NVS®Mirror in your vehicle is
the most advanced mirror to reduce
annoying glare in the rearview mirror
in any driving situation. For more
information regarding NVS
®mirrors
and other applications, please visit
the Gentex website:
www.gentex.com
Information
The NVS®Mirror automatically
reduces glare while driving based
upon light levels detected in front of
the vehicle and from the rear of the
vehicle. These light sensors are visible
through openings in the front and rear
of the mirror case. Any object that
obstructs either light sensor will
degrade the automatic dimming con-
trol function.
Automatic-dimming function
Your mirror automatically dims the
glare upon detecting it from the vehi-
cles traveling behind you. The auto-
matic-dimming function can be con-
trolled by the Dimming ON/OFF

automatic-dimming function,
which is indicated by the turned-
OFF green light of the Status
Indicator LED.
2. Re-pressing and holding the button for 3 seconds turns ON the
automatic-dimming function which
is indicated by the turned-ON
green light of the Status Indicator
LED.
The mirror defaults to the ON posi-
tion whenever the vehicle is started.
Z-Nav™ Compass Display
The NVS™ Mirror in your vehicle is
also equipped with a Z-Nav™
Compass that shows the vehicle
Compass heading on the Display
Window in the 8 cardinals headings
(N, NE, E, SE, etc.).

There is a difference between the
magnetic north and the actual north.
The compass in the mirror can offset
this difference by knowing the
Magnetic Zone in which it is operat-
ing. This is set either by the dealer or
by the user. The operating Zone
Numbers for North America are
shown in the figure on the next page.

There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle mag-
nets, such as installing a ski rack or
a CB antenna. Body repair work on
the vehicle can also cause changes
to the vehicle's magnetic field. In
these situations, the compass will
need to be re-calibrated to quickly
correct these changes. To re-cali-
brate the compass:
1. Press and hold the button formore than 9 seconds. When the
compass memory is deleted, a let-
ter "C" will appear on the display.

Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System provides a convenient way to
replace up to three hand-held
radiofrequency (RF) transmitters
with a single built-in device. This
innovative feature will learn the radio
frequency codes of most current
transmitters to operate devices such
as gate operators, garage door
openers, entry door locks, security
systems, and even home lighting.
Both standard and rolling code-
equipped transmitters can be pro-
grammed by following the outlined
procedures. Additional HomeLink
®
information can be found at:
www.homelink.com or by calling 1-
800-355-3515. Retain the original transmitter of the
RF device you programmed for use
in other vehicles as well as for future
HomeLink
®programming. It is also
suggested that upon the sale of the
vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
®
buttons be erased for security pur-
poses.

Before programming
HomeLink®to a garage door
opener or gate operator, make
sure that people and objects are
out of the way from the device
to prevent potential harm or
damage. Do not use HomeLink
®
with any garage door opener
that lacks the safety stop and
reverse features required by
U.S. federal safety standards
(this includes any garage door
opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage
door that cannot detect an
object - signaling the door to
stop and reverse - does not
meet current U.S. federal safety
standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features
increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
WARNING
