2019 Hyundai Tucson brake

As with other vehicles of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correct-
ly may result in loss of control, an
accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics (high-
er ground clearance, track, etc.) give
this vehicle a higher centre of gravity
than other types of vehicles. In other
words they are not designed for cor-
nering at the same speeds as con-
ventional 2-wheel drive vehicles.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt manoeu-
vres. Again, failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of
control, an accident or vehicle
rollover.Be sure to read the
"Reducing the risk of a rollover"
driving guidelines, in section 5 of
this manual. By following a few simple precautions
for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you
may add to the performance, econo-
my and life of your vehicle.
• Do not race the engine.
• Whilst driving, keep your engine
speed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
• Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is need-
ed to properly break-in the engine.
• Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.
• Don't tow a trailer during the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) of operation.

the front portion of the folding
lever.
Push the seatback firmly until it
clicks into place. Make sure the
seatback is locked in place.
Safety system of your vehicle
OTLE035025
Do not place objects in the rear
seats, since they cannot be
properly secured and may hit
vehicle occupants in a collision
causing serious injury or death.
WARNING
When returning the rear seat-
back from a folded to an upright
position, hold the seatback and
return it slowly. Ensure that the
seatback is completely locked
into its upright position by
pushing on the top of the seat-
back. In an accident or sudden
stop, the unlocked seatback
could allow cargo to move for-
ward with great force and enter
the passenger compartment,
which could result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING
Make sure the engine is off, the
shift lever is in P (Park), and the
parking brake is securely
applied whenever loading or
unloading cargo. Failure to take
these steps may allow the vehi-
cle to move if the shift lever is
inadvertently moved to another
position.

In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would
not be able to provide any additional
benefit, and thus the sensors may
not deploy any air bags.Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehicle
causing it to “ride” under a vehicle
with a higher ground clearance. Air
bags may not inflate in this "under-
ride" situation because deceleration
forces that are detected by sensors
may be significantly reduced by such
“underride” collisions.Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because front air
bag deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.
Information
• Vehicles equipped with rollover sensor
The side and curtain air bags may
inflate in a rollover situation, when it is
detected by the rollover sensor.
• Vehicles not equipped with rollover sensor
The side and/or curtain air bags may
inflate when the vehicle is rolled over
by a side impact collision, if the vehicle
is equipped with side and/or curtain
air bags.

•The doors should always be
fully closed and locked whilst
the vehicle is in motion. If the
doors are unlocked, the risk of
being thrown from the vehicle
in a crash is increased.
•Do not pull the inner door han-
dle of the driver’s or passen-
ger’s door whilst the vehicle is
moving.
WARNING
Do not leave children or animals
unattended in your vehicle. An
enclosed vehicle can become
extremely hot, causing death or
serious injury to unattended
children or animals who cannot
escape the vehicle. Children
might operate features of the
vehicle that could injure them,
or they could encounter other
harm, possibly from someone
gaining entry to the vehicle.
WARNING
Leaving your vehicle unlocked
increases the potential risk to
you or others from someone
hiding in your vehicle.
To secure your vehicle, whilst
depressing the brake, move the
shift lever to the P (Park) posi-
tion (for automatic transaxle/
dual clutch transmission) or first
gear or R (Reverse, for manual
transaxle), engage the parking
brake, and place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion, close all windows, lock all
doors, and always take the key
with you.
