i Information
7he ESC system (if equipped) must be
turned 2FF before rocking the vehicle.
NOTICE
If you are still stuck after rocking
the vehicle a few times, have the
vehicle pulled out by a tow vehicle
to avoid engine overheating, pos-
sible damage to the transmission,
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

Whilst driving
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the water.
The best advice is SLOW DOWN
when the road is wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increases
as the depth of tyre tread decreas-
es, refer to “Tyre replacement” in
chapter 8.
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may be
reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them sev-
eral times whilst the vehicle is moving
slowly.

Under-inflation may overheat or dam-

Do not install worn-out or damaged
tyres, which may reduce traction or
fail the braking operation.
i Information

maximum inflation pressure, as speci-
fied on your tyres.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine
oil
Driving at higher speeds on the high-
way consumes more fuel and is less
efficient than driving at a slower, more

The severe weather conditions of
winter quickly wear out tyres and
cause other problems. To minimise
winter driving problems, you should

Snow or icy conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding,
rapid acceleration, sudden brake
applications, and sharp turns are
potentially very hazardous practices.
During deceleration, use engine brak-
ing to the fullest extent. Sudden brake
applications on snowy or icy roads
may cause the vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tyres
or to install tyre chains on your tyres.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tyre chains, tow straps
or chains, a flashlight, emergency

a window scraper, gloves, ground
cloth, coveralls, a blanket, etc.
Snow tyres
WARNING
Snow tyres should be equivalent
in size and type to the vehicle’s
standard tyres. Otherwise, the
safety and handling of your vehi-
cle may be adversely affected.
If you mount snow tyres on your vehi-
cle, make sure to use radial tyres of
the same size and load range as the
RULJLQDOW\UHV0RXQWVQRZW\UHVRQDOO
four wheels to balance your vehicle’s
handling in all weather conditions.
The traction provided by snow tyres
on dry roads may not be as high as
your vehicle’s original equipment
tyres. Check with the tyre dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.
i Information
'o not install studded tyres without
first checking local and municipal reg-
ulations for possible restrictions
against their use.

Tyre chains
2$&78
Since the sidewalls of radial tyres are
thinner than other types of tyres, they
may be damaged by mounting some
types of tyre chains on them.
Therefore, the use of snow tyres is
recommended instead of tire chains.
Do not mount tyre chains on vehicles

unavoidable use a wire type chain. If
tyre chains must be used, use genu-
ine HYUNDAI parts and install the
tyre chain after reviewing the instruc-
tions provided with the tyre chains.
Damage to your vehicle caused by
improper tyre chain use is not cov-
ered by your vehicle manufacturer’s
warranty.
NOTICE
If your vehicle has 185/55R15 or
195/45R16 size tyres do not use
tyre chain; they can damage your
vehicle (wheel, suspension and
body).
WARNING
The use of tyre chains may
adversely affect vehicle handling:

Chain Installation
When installing tyre chains, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and
mount them as tightly possible. Drive

with chains installed. If you hear the
chains contacting the body or chas-
sis, stop and tighten them. If they still
make contact, slow down until the
noise stops. Remove the tyre chains
as soon as you begin driving on
cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away from
traffic. Turn on the vehicle Hazard
Warning Flasher and place a triangu-
lar emergency warning device behind
the vehicle (if available). Always

To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being fro-
zen, spray approved de-icing fluid or
glycerin into key holes. When a lock
opening is already covered with ice,
spray approved de-icing fluid over the
ice to remove it. When an internal
part of a lock freezes, try to thaw it
with a heated key. Carefully use the
KHDWHGNH\WRDYRLGDQLQMXU\
Use approved window washer anti-
freeze solution in system
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized window
washer anti-freeze solution, as speci-
fied on the window washer container.
Window washer anti-freeze solution
is available from a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer, and most vehicle
accessory outlets. Do not use engine
coolant or other types of anti-freeze
solution to prevent any damage to the
vehicle paint.
Do not let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions your parking
brake can freeze in the engaged posi-
tion.
This is most likely to happen when
there is an accumulation of snow or
ice around or near the rear brakes or
if the brakes are wet. When there is
the risk that your parking brake may
freeze, temporarily apply it with the

Transmission) or in first or reverse
gear (for manual transmission). Also,
block the rear wheels in advance, so
the vehicle may not roll. Then, release
the parking brake.Do not let ice and snow
accumulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice
can build up under the fenders and
interfere with the steering. When driv-
ing in such conditions during the
severe winter, you should check
underneath the vehicle on a regular
basis, to ensure that the front wheels
and the steering components is
unblocked.
Carry emergency equipment
In accordance with weather condi-
tions, you should carry appropriate
emergency equipment, whilst driving.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tyre chains, tow straps
or chains, flashlight, emergency
