2016 Hyundai Equus height

A vehicle may be unrecognized by
the sensor, when;
- The vehicle points upwards due tooverloading in the trunk,
- The steering wheel is operated,
- The vehicle drives astray to one side of a lane, and
- The vehicle drives in a narrow lane or on a curve.
If necessary, depress the brake
pedal or the accelerator.
When vehicles are parked in a line, and when a vehicle in front drives
out of the line, the system may not
recognize other parked vehicles in
the line. Thus, be careful, when you
start to drive. Always look out for abrupt appear-
ance of any passers-by, while your
vehicle system automatically con-
trols and maintains a safe distance
from a vehicle in front.
Always be cautious for vehicles with higher height or vehicles car-
rying loads that sticks out from the
back of the vehicle.

The system may not properlyoperate, when the bumper is
replaced, or when a repair work
is done near the sensor.
The sensing range differs according to the roads width.
When the road is narrow, the
system may detect other vehi-
cles in the next lane.
On the contrary, when the road is wide, the system may not
detect other vehicles.
The system may be turn OFF due to the strong electromagnet-
ic waves.

Driving your vehicle

When emergently towing your vehi-
cle without a wheel dolly:
1.Set the Engine Start/Stop Button inthe ACC position.
2.Place the shift lever in N (Neutral).
3.Release the parking brake. When the ECS malfunction indica-
tor illuminates with no air in the
suspension, the vehicle height is
very low. Thus, do not drive the
vehicle to protect it from any pro-
jections on the ground. Tow your
vehicle to an authorized EQUUS
dealer and have the system
checked. You should tow the vehi-
cle as shown in the illustration.
When loading the vehicle onto the
tow truck, the loading slope angle (1)
should be less than 6°.

Maintenance07
Compact spare tire replacement
A compact spare tire has a shorter
tread life than a regular one. Replace
it, when a tread wear indicator is
found. A compact spare tire should
be replaced with the one in the same
size as the original one, and should
be installed over a tire wheel of the
same compact size. A compact
spare tire is not designed to be
installed over a wheel of the regular
size, and a compact spare wheel is
not designed for a tire of the regular
size.
Wheel replacement
When replacing the metal wheels for
any reason, make sure the new
wheels are equivalent to the original
wheel in terms of diameter, rim width
and offset.
Information
The front tire size is different from the
rear one. While rotating tire positions,
check the size of the tires and wheels.
Information
A wheel in the different size may
adversely affect the wheel bearing,
braking, stopping, handling, ground
clearance, body-to-tire clearance,
snow-chain clearance, speedometer,
odometer, headlamp angle and
bumper height.
Tire traction
Tire traction may decrease when
driving with worn-out or improperly-
inflated tires on a slippery surface.
Tires should be replaced, when a
tread wear indicator appears. Slow
down the driving speed to lower the
risk of losing the vehicle control,
when it rains or snows, or when your
vehicle drives on a icy surface.
i
i
The compact spare tire is for
emergency use only. Do not
operate your vehicle on this
compact spare at a speed over
50 mph (80 km/h). The original
tire should be immediately
repaired or replaced to avoid a
spare-tire failure and a possible
personal injury or death.

Maintenance
Tire maintenance
In addition to the proper inflation
pressure, correct wheel alignment
prevents tire abrasion. When you find
uneven tire abrasion, have the wheel
alignment checked by your EQUUS
dealer.
When replacing your tires, make
sure they are well balanced. This
increases your driving comfort and
tire life. Additionally, a tire should be
rebalanced after being removed from
a wheel.
Tire sidewall labeling
This information identifies and states
the fundamental tire specifications
and also provides the tire identifica-
tion number (TIN) for the safety stan-
dard certification. The TIN is to iden-
tify your tire in case of a recall.
1. Manufacturer or brand name
The manufacturer's or brand name is
shown.
2. Tire size designation
A tire side wall is marked with tire
size specifications. This information
is needed to select the right tire for
replacement. The letters and num-
bers in the tire size designation are
interpreted as below.
Example of the tire size designation:
(The following tire size designation is
provided as an example only; your
tire size designator may vary,
depending on your vehicle model.)
P245/45R19 98V

Tire terminology and defini-
tions
Air Pressure:The amount of air
inside a tire, pressing the inside the
tire outwards. Air pressure is meas-
ured in pounds per square inch (psi)
or kilopascal (kPa).
Accessory Weight: This is the com-
bined weights of optional acces-
sories. Some examples of optional
accessories are the automatic trans-
mission, power seats, and air condi-
tioning.
Aspect Ratio: The ratio of a tire
width to a height.
Belt: A rubber coated layer of cords
that is located between the plies and
the tread. Cords may be made from
steel or other reinforcing materials.
Bead: The tire bead contains the
steel wires wrapped with steel cords.
This holds a tire onto a rim. Bias Ply Tire:
This is a pneumatic
tire, in which plies are laid at alter-
nate angles less than 90 degrees on
the tread centerline.
Cold Tire Pressure: This is the
amount of air pressure inside a tire,
measured in pounds per square inch
(psi) or kilopascals (kPa), before the
heat build-up due to driving.
Curb Weight: This is the vehicle
weight with standard and optional
equipment including the full fuel tank,
oil tanks and coolant tanks. However,
this excludes the weight of passen-
gers and loads.
DOT Markings: This code is marked
on a tire side wall, as an indication of
the its compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation motor
vehicle safety standards. The DOT
code includes the Tire Identification
Number (TIN), alphanumeric desig-
nator for the manufacturer identifica-
tion, manufacturing plant, brand and
manufacturing date.
GVWR: Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
GAWR FRT: Gross Axle Weight
Rating for the Front Axle.
GAWR RR: Gross Axle Weight
Rating for the Rear axle.
Intended Outboard Sidewall: This
asymmetrical tire side must face out-
wards, while being installed on a
vehicle.
Kilopascal (kPa): The metric unit for
air pressure.
Light Truck (LT) Tire: A tire desig-
nated by its manufacturer as primari-
ly intended for use on lightweight
trucks or multipurpose passenger
vehicles.
Load Ratings: The maximum load
that a tire is rated to carry for a given
inflation pressure.
• It is difficult to recognize a tire
damage only with your eyes.
When there is a slight hint of a
tire damage, check and
replace the tire to prevent the
damage caused by air leak-
age.
When a tire is damaged while driving on a rough road, off a
road, or over obstacles, such
as a pothole, manhole, or curb
stone, your warranty does not
cover the damage.
The tire information is speci- fied on the tire side wall.
