Driving your vehicle
ESC checks where you are steering
and where the vehicle is actually
going. ESC applies braking pressure
to any one of the vehicle's brakes
and intervenes in the electric vehicle
control system to assist the driver
with keeping the vehicle on the
intended path. It is not a substitute
for safe driving practices. Always
adjust your speed and driving to the
road conditions.
ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the POWER button is in the
ON position, the ESC and the ESC
OFF indicator lights illuminate for
approximately three seconds. After
both lights go off, the ESC is
enabled.
When operating
When the ESC is in opera-
tion, the ESC indicator light
blinks:
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This is
normal and it means your ESC is
active.
cle may not respond to the acceler-
ator as it does under routine condi-
tions.
when the ESC activates, the Cruise
Control automatically disengages.
The Cruise Control can be reen-
gaged when the road conditions
allow. See "Cruise Control System"
later in this chapter. (if equipped)
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions or too quickly when
cornering. The ESC system will
not prevent accidents.
Excessive speed in turns,
abrupt manoeuvres, and
hydroplaning on wet surfaces
can result in severe accidents.

Press the ESC OFF button briefly.
The ESC OFF indicator light and

tion control function of ESC is dis-
abled, but the brake control function
of ESC still operates.
Press and hold the ESC OFF button
continuously for more than 3 sec-
onds. The ESC OFF indicator light
and message "Traction & Stability

of ESC are disabled.
If the POWER button is placed to the
OFF position when ESC is off, ESC
remains off. Upon restarting the vehi-
cle, the ESC will automatically turn
on again.
Indicator lights
When the POWER button is pressed
to the ON position, the ESC indicator
light illuminates, then goes off if the
ESC system is operating normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks when-
ever the ESC is operating.

with the ESC system. When this
warning light illuminates we recom-
mend that the vehicle be checked by
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer as
soon as possible.

Driving your vehicle
Driving with wheels and tyres with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tyres, make sure all four
tyres and wheels are the same
size. Never drive the vehicle with
different sized wheels and tyres
installed.
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 whilst driving, press
the ESC OFF button whilst driving on
a flat road surface. Do not allow wheel(s) of one
axle to spin excessively whilst
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 whilst these lights are dis-
played.
When operating the vehicle on a dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).
Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or standard brake system opera-
tion.

WARNING

5-56
Driving your vehicle
There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor
The radar/camera sensor recogni- tion is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle or a bicycle, etc.)
The vehicle in front is an oversize vehicle or trailer that is too big to
be detected by the camera recog-
nition system (for example a tractor
trailer, etc.)
The driver's field of view is not well illuminated (either too dark or too
much reflection or too much back-
light that obscures the field of view)
The vehicle in front does not have their rear lights properly turned ON
The outside brightness changes suddenly, for example when enter-
ing or exiting a tunnel
Light coming from a street light or an oncoming vehicle is reflected on
a wet road surface such as a pud-
dle in the road
The field of view in front is obstructed by sun glare The windscreen glass is fogged up;
a clear view of the road is obstruct-
ed
The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically
The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or roads
with sudden gradient changes
The adverse road conditions cause excessive vehicle vibrations whilst
driving
The vehicle is moving under ground level or inside a building
The vehicle is driven near areas containing metal substances such
as a construction zone, railroad,
etc.
The vehicle in front is moving verti- cally to the driving direction
The vehicle in front is stopped ver- tically
The vehicle in front is driving towards your vehicle or reversing - Driving on a curve
The performance of the FCA system
may be limited when driving on a
curved road.
In certain instances on a curved
road, the FCA system may activate
prematurely.
Also, in certain instances the front
radar sensor or camera recognition
system may not detect the vehicle
travelling on a curved road.
In these cases, the driver must main-
tain a safe braking distance, and if
necessary, depress the brake pedal
to reduce your driving speed in order
to maintain a safe distance.

Information
The ESC system (if equipped) must be
turned OFF before rocking the vehi-
cle.
If you are still stuck after rocking
the vehicle a few times, have the
vehicle pulled out by a tow vehicle
to avoid vehicle overheating, pos-
sible damage to the reduction
gear and tyre damage. See
"Towing" in chapter 6.
Smooth cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in
corners, especially when roads are
wet. Ideally, corners should always
be taken under gentle acceleration.
Driving at night
Night driving presents more hazards
than driving in the daylight. Here are
some important tips to remember:
Slow down and keep more dis-tance between you and other vehi-
cles, as it may be more difficult to
see at night, especially in areas
where there may not be any street
lights.
Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare from other driver's head-
lamps.
Keep your headlamps clean and properly aimed. Dirty or improperly
aimed headlamps will make it
much more difficult to see at night.
Avoid staring directly at the head- lamps of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your
eyes to readjust to the darkness.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous. Here are a few things to
consider when driving in the rain or
on slick pavement:
Slow down and allow extra follow-ing distance. A heavy rainfall
makes it harder to see and increas-
es the distance needed to stop
your vehicle.
Turn OFF your Cruise Control. (if equipped)
Replace your windscreen wiper blades when they show signs of
streaking or missing areas on the
windscreen.
Be sure your tyres have enough tread. If your tyres do not have
enough tread, making a quick stop
on wet pavement can cause a skid
and possibly lead to an accident.
See "Tyre Tread" in chapter 7 .
Turn on your headlamps to make it easier for others to see you.
Driving too fast through large pud- dles can affect your brakes. If you
must go through puddles, try to
drive through them slowly.
