Ecoshift dual clutch transmis- sion
Ecoshift dual clutch transmis-sion operation
The Ecoshift dual clutch transmis-
sion has seven forward speeds and
one reverse speed. The individual speeds are selected
automatically in the D (Drive) posi-tion.
Driving your vehicle
Move shift lever.
Press the shift button, then move shift lever.
Depress the brake pedal, press the shift button, and then move shift lever.OTL055006

5-19
Driving your vehicle
The Ecoshift dual clutch transmis-sion gives the driving feel of a man-
ual transmission, yet provides the
ease of a fully automatic transmis-
sion. Unlike a traditional automatic
transmission, the gear shifting can
sometimes be felt and heard on the
Ecoshift dual clutch transmission,as the actuators engage the clutchand the gear is selected.
The Ecoshift dual clutch transmis- sion can be thought of as an auto-
matically shifting manual transmis-
sion. When D (Drive) is selected,
the transmission will automaticallyshift through the gears similar to a
conventional automatic transmis-sion.
The Ecoshift dual clutch transmis- sion incorporates a dry-type dual
clutch mechanism, which allows for
better acceleration performanceand increased fuel efficiency while
driving. But it differs from a con-
ventional automatic transmission in
that it does not incorporate a
torque converter. Instead, the tran-
sition from one gear to the next is
managed by clutch slip, especially
at lower speeds. As a result, shifts are sometimes
more noticeable, and a light vibra-
tion can be felt as the transmissionshaft speed is matched with the
engine shaft speed. This is a nor-mal condition of the Ecoshift dual
clutch transmission.
The dry-type clutch transfers torque more directly and provides
a direct-drive feeling which may
feel different from a conventional
automatic transmission. This may
be more noticeable when launch-
ing the vehicle from a stop or when
traveling at low, stop-and-go vehi-
cle speeds.
When rapidly accelerating from a lower vehicle speed, the engine
rpm may increase dramatically asa result of clutch slip as the
Ecoshift dual clutch transmission
selects the correct gear. This is a
normal condition.
When accelerating from a stop on an incline, press the accelerator
smoothly and gradually to avoid
any shudder feeling or jerkiness.

To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death:
ALWAYS check the surround-
ing areas near your vehicle for
people, especially children,
before shifting a vehicle into
D (Drive) or R (Reverse).
Before leaving the driver's
seat, always make sure the
shift lever is in the P (Park)
position, then set the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occurif these precautions are not
followed.
Do not use engine braking
(shifting from a high gear to
lower gear) rapidly on slip-
pery roads. The vehicle mayslip causing an accident.
WARNING

5-20
When traveling at a lower vehiclespeed, if you release the accelera-
tor pedal quickly, you may feel
engine braking before the trans-
mission changes gears. This
engine braking feeling is similar to
operating a manual transmission at
low speed.
When driving downhill, you may wish to move the gear shift lever to
Manual Shift mode and downshift
to a lower gear in order to control
your speed without using the brake
pedal excessively.
When you turn the engine on and off, you may hear clicking soundsas the system goes through a self
test. This is a normal sound for the
Ecoshift dual clutch transmission. To hold the vehicle on a hill use
the foot brake or the parking
brake. If the vehicle is held by
applying the accelerator pedal
on a hill the clutch and trans-
mission will be overheated
resulting in damage.
At this time, a warning message
will appear on the LCD display
and you may feel a vibration. If the clutch becomes overheat-
ed by excessive use of the
clutch to hold on a hill, you may
notice a shudder feeling and a
blinking display on the instru-
ment cluster. When this occurs,
the clutch is disabled until the
clutch cools to normal tempera-
tures. If this occurs, pull over to
a safe location, shift into P
(Park) and apply the foot brake
for a few minutes.
If the LCD warning is active, the foot brake must be applied.
Ignoring the warnings can lead to damage to the transmission.
If the display continues to blink, for your safety, contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked.NOTICE

Driving your vehicle
Under certain conditions, suchas repeated stop-and-go launch-
es on steep grades, the trans-
mission clutches may overheat.
When the clutches are overheat-
ed, the transmission safe pro-
tection mode logic is enabled. If the safe protection mode logic
is enabled, the gear position
indicator on the cluster blinks
with a chime sound. At this time,
a warning message will appear
on the LCD display and driving
may not be smooth. If you ignore
this warning, the driving condi-
tion may become worse. If this
occurs, stop the vehicle, apply
the brakes or shift the vehicle to
P (Park), and allow the transmis-sion to cool.
If the Ecoshift dual clutch trans- mission starts to become over-
heated, the gear shift character-
istics may change. Gear shifts
may become more abrupt. If
continued operation includes
frequent and continuous
upshifts and downshifts, the
overheat warning message on
the cluster LCD display may illu-
minate. If this occurs, stop the
vehicle, apply the brakes or shift
the vehicle to (P) Park, and allowthe transmission to cool. When possible, continue to
drive the vehicle smoothly while
trying to avoid frequent upshift-
ing and downshifting.
Gear shifts may be more notice- able than a conventional auto-
matic transmission. This is a
normal characteristic of this
type of Ecoshift dual clutchtransmission.
During the first 1000 miles, you may feel that the vehicle may notbe smooth when accelerating at
low speed. During this break-in
period, the shift quality and per-
formance of your new vehicle is
continuously optimized.
Always come to a complete stop before shifting into D (Drive) or
R (Reverse).
Do not put the shift lever in N (Neutral) while driving.
