When All Wheel Drive(AWD) is
activated, driving forces are distributed
appropriately to front and rear wheels.
It could improve driving performance by
maximizing the driving force of vehicles
on severe road conditions such as steep
hills, unpaved, slippery, etc.
Advantage of electronic AWD
1. Improvement of straight stability
2. Improvement of driving performance
on curve
3. Secure stability on severe condition
such as wet and sandy roads.
4. Improvement of energy efficiency
from driving mode automatic control.
Information
AWD vehicles could change the
engagement status of the motor according
to the situation required. Auto changing
the driving mode(2WD/AWD)helps
improve energy efficiency and driving
stability.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:

[Avoid high speeds when cornering or
turning.

[Do not make quick steering wheel
movements, such as sharp lane
changes or fast, sharp turns.

[The risk of a rollover is greatly
increased if you lose control of your
vehicle at highway speeds.

[Loss of control often occurs if two or
more wheels drop off the roadway
and the driver over steers to reenter
the roadway.

[In the event your vehicle leaves
the roadway, do not steer sharply.
Instead, slow down before pulling
back into the travel lanes.
NOTICE

[Do not drive in water if the level
is higher than the bottom of the
vehicle.

[Check your brake condition once
you are out of mud or water. Depress
the brake pedal several times as you
move slowly until you feel normal
braking return.

[Shorten your scheduled
maintenance interval if you drive in
off-road conditions such as sand,
mud or water (see "Maintenance
Under Severe Usage Conditions"
section in chapter 9).

[Always wash your vehicle thoroughly
after off road use, especially the
bottom of the vehicle.

[Be sure to equip the vehicle with four
tires of the same size and type.

[Make sure that a full time AWD
vehicle is towed by a flat bed tow
truck.

For safe AWD operation
Before driving

[Make sure all passengers are wearing
seat belts.

[Sit upright and closer to the steering
wheel than usual. Adjust the steering
wheel to a position comfortable for
you to drive.
Driving on snow-covered or icy roads

[Start off slowly by applying the
accelerator pedal gently.

[Use snow tires or tire chains.

[Keep sufficient distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you.

[Using regenerative braking helps the
steering on the downhill. However, it
may be difficult to adjust the vehicle
while coasting using regenerative
braking, so avoid using the third level
of regenerative braking as much as
possible.

[Avoid speeding, rapid acceleration,
sudden brake applications, and sharp
turns to prevent skids.

[It is difficult to start again if the
vehicle stops on an uphill road. Keep
your distance from other vehicles and
drive slowly.
Information
When using Snow Tires, mount them on
all four wheels.
When using tire chains, install them on the
rear tires.
However, driving speed must be below 30
km/h and minimize the driving distance.
High-speed or long-term driving with
tire chains installed may malfunction or
damage the AWD system.
For more details on Snow Tires and Tire
Chains, refer to "Winter Driving" section
later in this chapter.
Driving in sand or mud

[Maintain slow and constant speed.

[Use tire chains driving in mud if
necessary.

[Keep sufficient distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you.

[Reduce vehicle speed and always
check the road condition.

[Avoid speeding, rapid acceleration,
sudden brake applications, and sharp
turns to prevent getting stuck.
NOTICE
When the vehicle is stuck in snow, sand
or mud, place a nonslip material under
the drive wheels to provide traction
OR slowly spin the wheels in forward
and reverse directions which causes
a rocking motion that may free the
vehicle.
Driving up or down hills

[Driving uphill
- Before starting off, check if it is
possible to drive uphill.
- Drive as straight as possible.

[Driving downhill
- Do not change gear while driving
downhill. Select gear before driving
downhill.
- Drive straight as possible.
WARNING
Exercise extreme caution driving up or
down steep hills. The vehicle may flip
over depending on the grade, terrain,
water and mud conditions.

WARNING
ONE1061023K
Never start or run the vehicle while
an AWD vehicle is raised on a jack.
The vehicle can slip or roll off of a jack
causing serious injury or death to you or
those nearby.
Towing
AWD vehicles must be towed with
a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed
equipment with all the wheels off the
ground. For more details, refer to
"Towing" section in chapter 8.
Vehicle inspection

[If the vehicle needs to be operated on
a vehicle lift do not attempt to stop
any of the four wheels from turning.
This could damage the AWD system.

[Never engage the parking brake while
running the vehicle on a car lift. This
may damage the AWD system.
Dynamometer testing
An AWD vehicle must be tested on a
special four wheel chassis dynamometer.
ONE1061024JP[A] : Roll tester (Speedometer),
[B] : Temporary free roller
An AWD vehicle should not be tested
on a 2WD roll tester. If a 2WD roll tester
must be used, perform the following
procedure:
1. Check the tire pressures
recommended for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll tester
for a speedometer test as shown in
the illustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the
temporary free roller as shown in the
illustration.
WARNING
Keep away from the front of the vehicle
while the vehicle is in gear on the
dynamometer. The vehicle can jump
forward and cause serious injury or
death.

Information
The ESC system must be turned OFF
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
motor overheating, possible damage
to the reduction gear, and tire damage.
See “Towing” section in chapter 8.
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 distance
between you and other vehicles, 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 drivers’ headlamps.

[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
headlamps 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 following
distance. A heavy rainfall makes
it harder to see and increases the
distance needed to stop your vehicle.

[Turn OFF your Cruise Control. (if
equipped)

[Replace your windshield wiper blades
when they show signs of streaking or
missing areas on the windshield.

[Be sure your tires have enough tread.
If your tires do not have enough tread,
making a quick stop on wet pavement
can cause a skid and possibly lead to
an accident. See “Tire Tread” section
in chapter 9.

[Turn on your headlamps to make it
easier for others to see you.

[Driving too fast through large puddles
can affect your brakes. If you must go
through puddles, try to drive through
them slowly.

[If you believe your brakes may be wet,
apply them lightly while driving until
normal braking operation returns.

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 tire tread decreases, refer
to “Tire Tread” section in chapter 9.
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 several
times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
Highway Driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified.
Under-inflation may overheat or damage
the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged tires,
which may reduce traction or fail the
braking operation.
Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the
maximum inflation pressure, as specified
on your tires.
Coolant and high voltage battery
Driving at higher speeds on the highway
consumes more electric energy and is
less efficient than driving at a slower,
more moderate speed. Maintain a
moderate speed in order to conserve
electric energy when driving on the
highway.
Be sure to check both the coolant level
and the electric energy level before
driving.

Winter Precautions
Check battery and cables
Winter temperatures affect battery
performance. Inspect the battery and
cables, as specified in chapter 9. The
battery charging level can be checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or in a
service station.
To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being frozen,
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 heated key to avoid an injury.
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 specified
on the window washer container.
Window washer anti-freeze solution is
available from an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer, and most vehicle accessory
outlets. Do not use 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 position.
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 gear in P (Park). 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 driving
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 conditions,
you should carry appropriate emergency
equipment, while driving. Some of the
items you may want to carry include tire
chains, tow straps or chains, flashlight,
emergency flares, sand, shovel, jumper
cables, window scraper, gloves, ground
cloth, coveralls, blanket, etc.
Do not place objects or materials in the
motor compartment
Putting objects or materials in the motor
compartment may cause an motor
failure. Such damage will not be covered
by the manufacturer’s warranty.
