water, immediately turn OFF
the vehicle and evacuate to a
safe place. Contact the fire
department or an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
If you tow the vehicle while
the front wheels are touching
the ground, the vehicle motor
may generate electricity and
the motor components may
be damaged or a fire may
occur.
When a vehicle fire occurs
due to the battery, there is a
risk of a second fire. Contact
the fire department when tow-
ing the vehicle.
WARNING
If towing is required, lift all
four wheels off the ground
and tow the vehicle. If you
must tow the vehicle using
only two wheels, lift the front

Driving your vehicle
Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tires, make sure all fourtires and wheels are the same
size. Never drive the vehicle with
different sized wheels and tiresinstalled.
ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud by temporarily
stopping operation of the ESC to
maintain wheel torque.
To turn ESC off while driving, press
the ESC OFF button while driving on
a flat road surface. Do not allow wheel(s) of one
axle to spin excessively while
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce vehicle power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly while these lights are dis-
played.
When operating the vehicle on a dynamometer, make sure theESC is turned off (ESC OFF lightilluminated).
Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or standard brake system opera-
tion.

Good braking practices
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop
as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the vehicle to pull
to one side.To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal. If the braking action does
not return to normal, stop as soon as
it is safe to do so and we recommend
that you call an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, butconstant pedal pressure can result in
the brakes overheating, brake wear,
and possibly even brake failure.
If a tire goes flat while you are driv-
ing, apply the brakes gently and
keep the vehicle pointed straight
ahead while you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped to
prevent the vehicle from rolling for-
ward.
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a com-
plete stop and continue to
depress the brake pedal. Shift
to the P (Park) position, then
apply the parking brake, and
place the POWER button in theOFF position.
Vehicles parked with the park- ing brake not applied or not
fully engaged may roll inadver-
tently and may cause injury to
the driver and others. ALWAYS
apply the parking brake before
exiting the vehicle.

Limitations of the system
The driver must be cautious in the
below situations, because the sys-
tem may not detect other vehicles or
objects in certain circumstances.
The vehicle drives on a curvedroad or through a tollgate.
The sensor is polluted with rain, snow, mud, etc.
The rear bumper where the sensor is located is covered with a foreign
object such as a bumper sticker, a
bumper guard, a bike rack, etc.
The rear bumper is damaged, or the sensor is out of the original
default position.
The vehicle height gets lower or higher due to heavy loading in the
luggage compartment, abnormal
tire pressure, etc.
The vehicle drives in inclement weather such as heavy rain or
snow.
There is a fixed object near the vehicle, such as a guardrail. The vehicle is driven near areas
containing metal substances such
as a construction zone, railroad,etc.
A big vehicle is near such as a bus or truck.
A motorcycle or bicycle is near.
A flat trailer is near.
If the vehicle has started at the same time as the vehicle next to
you and has accelerated.
When the other vehicle passes at a very fast speed.
While changing lanes.
While going down or up a steep road where the height of the lane is
different.
When the other vehicle approach- es very close.
When a trailer or carrier is installed.
When the temperature near the rear bumper area is high or low.
When the sensors are blocked by other vehicles, walls or parking-lot
pillars. When the detected vehicle also
moves back, as your vehicle drives
back.
If there are small objects in the detecting area such as a shopping
cart or a baby stroller.
If there is a low height vehicle such as a sports car.
When other vehicles are close to your vehicle.
When the vehicle in the next lane moves two lanes away from you
OR when the vehicle two lanes
away moves to the next lane from
you.
When driving on wet surface.

If you believe your brakes may bewet, apply them lightly while driv-
ing until normal braking operation
returns.
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the
water. The best advice is SLOW
DOWN when the road is wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increas- es as the depth of tire tread
decreases, refer to "Tire Tread" in
chapter 7.
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is nohigher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may bereduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them sev-
eral times while the vehicle is moving
slowly.
Highway driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or
damage the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged
tires, which may reduce traction or
fail the braking operation.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as speci-
fied on your tires.
Coolant and high voltage bat- tery
Be sure to check both the coolant
level and the high voltage battery
level before driving.

What to do in an emergency
If you have a flat tire while driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driv- ing:
Take your foot off the acceleratorpedal and let the vehicle slow
down while driving straight ahead.
Do not apply the brakes immedi-
ately to slow down the vehicle, butuse the paddle shifter (left side
lever) to increase regenerative
braking control. Also, do notattempt to pull off the road as this
may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident. When the
vehicle has slowed to such a
speed that it is safe to do so, brakecarefully and pull off the road.
Drive off the road as far as possible
and park on firm, level ground. If
you are on a divided highway, do
not park in the median area
between the two traffic lanes.
When the vehicle is stopped, press the hazard warning flasher button,
shift to P (Park), apply the parking
brake, and place the POWER but-ton in the OFF position. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
When changing a flat tire, follow the instructions provided later in
this chapter. (Refer to "If You Have
a Flat Tire" provided in this chap-
ter.)
