2022 HYUNDAI ELANTRA N warning light

Instrument Cluster4-12
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with
dualdiagonal br
aking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual systems
should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure are required
to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional engine
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
