TPMS MALFUNCTION INDICATOR Blinks for approximately one minute, then remains illuminated
when there is a malfunction with the TPMS. Inspect all tires and
adjust tire pressure to specification. If the lamp remains illuminated,
have the system checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer as soon
as possible.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE POSITION INDICATOR AND
TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR (LCD DISPLAY) Tire pressures will display after driving a short distance. If a tire
pressure drops lower than predetermined specification, the Low

DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION
NOTE- EcoShift® Dual Clutch Transmission Characteristics
The EcoShift Dual Clutch Transmission behaves just like a manual
transmission, but with the added convenience of an automatic
transmission.
- The dual clutch transmission eliminates the need for a torque
converter. This direct drive structure and the ability to pre-select the
upshift gear allows shifts to be quick and responsive with constant
power through the shifts.
- The EcoShift Dual Clutch Transmission comes equipped with Hillstart
Assist Control. If you remove your foot from the brake pedal while you
are stopped on a hill, the vehicle will remain stationary for
approximately 2 seconds to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards. If you press the accelerator pedal during the two-second
period, the vehicle will accelerate. If you wait for over two seconds,
the vehicle will enter into creep mode and may roll backwards if the
hill is steep.
- Always come to a complete stop before shifting into Park (P), Drive
(D), or Reverse (R).
Caution
A few common conditions that may make the transmission
susceptible to overheating include:
- Holding the vehicle on an incline with just your foot on the accelerator
pedal
TIP: When holding the vehicle on a hill, use the foot brake rather than
trying to hold the vehicle by keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
- Driving in stop-and-go traffic with frequent accelerating and
decelerating at low speed
TIP: Allow a gap to form ahead of you before moving the vehicle
forward.
Under certain conditions, such as stop-and-go driving, launching the
vehicle on a steep grade, or backing the vehicle up a long inclined
driveway, the transmission clutch temperatures may increase
excessively. When the clutch temperature is elevated above the
normal operating condition, the high temperature warning message is
displayed. If this occurs, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible
and allow the transmission to cool with the engine running and the
shift lever in Park (P). After the warning message clears, you can
continue to drive the vehicle with caution.

DRIVING
ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
The ESC system is an electronic
system designed to help the driver
maintain vehicle control under
adverse conditions.
• To turn LKAS on,
press the LKAS switch
• To turn LKAS off,
press the switch again.
The Lane Keeping Assist System
detects the lane on the road and
warns the driver if the vehicle
leaves the lane when the vehicle
speed is over 37mph.
LANE KEEP ASSIST SYSTEM (LKAS)
ESC automatically selects the ON
position when the engine is started.
To turn off Traction Control
Press the ESC OFF button.
To turn off Traction and Stability
Control
Press and hold the ESC OFF button
for more than 3 seconds.
What is the Transmission High Temperature Warning Message?
• Under certain driving conditions such as stop-and-go driving or
driving slowly up a hill, the clutches tend to have more slip. This
condition tends to heat up the transmission.
• If the transmission temperature gets too high, a chime will sound
and a warning message will appear in the instrument cluster LCD
display.
• If this occurs, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible and allow
the transmission to cool with the engine running. After the
transmission cools, the vehicle may be driven normally.
What if I’m Driving in Stop-and-Go Traffic?
• Whenever possible, come to a complete stop with your vehicle and
allow a gap to form in front of you. Then accelerate and move
forward.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for additional info on the DCT.
