Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
An Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) or
an Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system will not prevent accidents
due to improper or dangerous driving
maneuvers. Even though vehicle
control is improved during emergency
braking, always maintain a safe
distance between you and objects
ahead of you. Vehicle speeds should
always be reduced during extreme
road conditions. The braking distance
for cars equipped with ABS or ESC
may be longer than for those without
these systems in the following road
conditions.
Drive your vehicle at reduced speeds
during the following conditions:

[Rough, gravel or snow-covered
roads.

[On roads where the road surface is
pitted or has different surface height.

[Tire chains are installed on your
vehicle.
The safety features of an ABS or ESC
equipped vehicle should not be tested
by high speed driving or cornering. This
could endanger the safety of yourself or
others.
ABS is an electronic braking system that
helps prevent a braking skid. ABS allows
the driver to steer and brake at the same
time.

06
6-45
Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your brake
pressure and do not try to pump your
brakes. Depress your brake pedal as hard
as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
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 ABS is active.
ABS does not reduce the time or distance
it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that results
from sudden changes in direction, such
as trying to take a corner too fast or
making a sudden lane change. Always
drive at a safe speed for the road and
weather conditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stability.
Always steer moderately when braking
hard. Severe or sharp steering wheel
movement can still cause your vehicle to
veer into oncoming traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake system
may result in a longer stopping distance
than for vehicles equipped with a
conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light (
) will stay on
for several seconds after the ignition
switch is in the ON position. During
that time, the ABS will go through self-
diagnosis and the light will go off if
everything is normal. If the light stays on,
you may have a problem with your ABS.
Contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
as soon as possible.
WARNING
If the ABS warning light () is on and
stays on, you may have a problem with
the ABS. Your power brakes will work
normally. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, contact your HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
CAUTION
When you drive on a road having poor
traction, such as an icy road, and apply
your brakes continuously, the ABS will
be active continuously and the ABS
warning light (
) may illuminate. Pull
your car over to a safe place and turn
the engine off.
Restart the engine. If the ABS warning
light is off, then your ABS system is
normal.
Otherwise, you may have a problem
with your ABS system. Contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
Information
When you jump start your vehicle because
of a drained battery, the ABS warning
light (
) may turn on at the same
time. This happens because of the low
battery voltage. It does not mean your
ABS is malfunctioning. Have the battery
recharged before driving the vehicle.

While Driving
6-48
ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be used
briefly to help free the vehicle if stuck in
snow 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.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the transmission:

[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 covered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do not
spin the wheel(s) excessively while
these lights are displayed.

[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 operation.
Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM) (if equipped)
The Vehicle Stability Management (VSM)
is a function of the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system. It helps ensure the
vehicle stays stable when accelerating
or braking suddenly on wet, slippery and
rough roads where traction over the four
tires can suddenly become uneven.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using the Vehicle Stability Management
(VSM):

[ALWAYS check the speed and the
distance to the vehicle ahead. The
VSM is not a substitute for safe
driving practices.

[Never drive too fast for the road
conditions. The VSM system will not
prevent accidents. Excessive speed
in bad weather, slippery and uneven
roads can result in severe accidents.
VSM operation
VSM ON condition
The VSM operates when:

[The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
is on.

[Vehicle speed is approximately above
9 mph (15 km/h) on curve roads.

[Vehicle speed is approximately above
12 mph (20 km/h) when the vehicle is
braking on rough roads.
When operating
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may activate the ESC,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal. This is normal and it means
your VSM is active.
NOTICE
The VSM does not operate when:

[Driving on a banked road such as
gradient or incline.

[Driving rearward.

[ESC OFF indicator light is on.

[EPS (Electric Power Steering)
warning light (
) is on or blinks.

While Driving
6-50
The Idle Stop and Go (ISG) system
automatically and temporarily shuts
down the engine when the vehicle is
stopped and idling to help improve
fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust gas
emissions. (i.e. red stop light, stop sign,
and traffic jam).
The engine is automatically started upon
satisfying the starting conditions.
The ISG system is always active, when
the engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically started
by the ISG system, some warning
lights (i.e. ABS, ESC, ESC OFF, EPS,
and parking brake warning light) may
illuminate for a few seconds due to the
low battery voltage. However, it does
not indicate a malfunction with the ISG
system.
To Activate the ISG System
Prerequisite for activation
The ISG system operates in the following
situations.

[The driver's seatbelt is fastened

[The driver's door and hood are closed

[The brake vacuum pressure is
adequate

[The battery sensor is activated and
the battery is sufficiently charged

[Outside temperature is not too low or
too high

[The vehicle is driven over a constant
speed and stops

[The climate control system satisfies
the conditions

[The vehicle is sufficiently warmed up

[The incline is gradual

[The steering wheel is turned less than
180 degrees and then the vehicle
stops
Information
If the ISG light (white) is turned on on the
instrument cluster and does not meet the
ISG system operating conditions, the ISG
system is not activated.
When the ISG light (yellow) is on while the
ISG system meets operating conditions, we
recommend that the system be inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Auto stop
To stop the engine in idle stop mode
1. Decrease the vehicle speed to 0 mph.
2. Depress the brake pedal with the shift
button in D (Drive) or N (Neutral).
The auto stop indicator (
) illuminates
in green on the instrument cluster, when
the engine stops.
Information
The driving speed must reach at least 3
mph (5 km/h) after an idle stop to stop the
engine in idle stop mode again.
In auto stop mode, when the driver
opens the hood, the ISG system will be
deactivated.

Battery Sensor Deactivation
OCN7060158N
[A] : Battery sensor
The battery sensor is deactivated, when
the battery is disconnected from the
negative pole for maintenance purpose.
In this case, the ISG system is limitedly
operated due to the battery sensor
deactivation. Thus, the driver needs
to take the following procedures to
reactivate the battery sensor after
disconnecting the battery.
Prerequisites to reactivate the
battery sensor
Switch "ON" and "OFF" the ignition one
time. Park the vehicle for a minimum of 4
hours with the hood and all doors closed.
Pay extreme caution not to connect any
accessories (i.e. navigation and black
box) to the vehicle with the engine in the
OFF status. If not, the battery sensor may
not be reactivated.
Information
The ISG system may not operate in the
following situations.
-There is a malfunction with the ISG
system.
-The battery is weak.
-The brake vacuum pressure is low.
If this occurs, have the ISG system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
NOTICE

[Use only a genuine HYUNDAI
Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) battery
for replacement. If not, the ISG
system may not operate normally.

[Do not recharge the Absorbent Glass
Mat (AGM) battery with a general
battery charger. It may damage or
explode the Absorbent Glass Mat
(AGM) battery.

[Do not remove the battery cap. The
battery electrolyte, which is harmful
to the human body, may leak out.
