Driving your vehicle
5Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tires, make sure all four
tires and wheels are the same
size. Never drive the vehicle with
different sized wheels and tires
installed.
ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud 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.
To prevent damage to the trans-
mission:
Do not allow wheel(s) of oneaxle to spin excessively while
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly while these lights are dis-
played.
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.
i

Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)
Trailer Stability Assist system helps
stabilize the vehicle and trailer when
the trailer sways or oscillates. There
are various reasons making the vehi-
cle sway and oscillate.
Factors of swaying are such as:
- High speed
- Strong crosswinds
- Improper overloading
- Sudden controlling of steeringwheel
- Uneven road
Trailer Stability Assist system contin-
uously analyzes the vehicle and trail-
er instability. When the Trailer
Stability Assist system detects some
sway, the brakes are applied auto-
matically to stabilize the vehicle on
the front wheel. However, if it is not
enough to stabilize, the brakes are
applied on all wheels automatically
and engine power is properly
reduced. When the vehicle is stable
from swaying, trailer stability assist
system does not operate.
Good Braking Practices
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it
is washed. Your vehicle will not stop
as quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet
brakes may cause the vehicle to pull
to one side. To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns
to normal, taking care to keep the
vehicle under control at all times. If
the braking action does not return to
normal, stop as soon as it is safe to
do so and call an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
constant pedal pressure can result in
the brakes overheating, brake wear,
and possibly even brake failure.
If a tire goes flat while you are driv-
ing, apply the brakes gently and
keep the vehicle pointed straight
ahead while you slow down. When
you are moving slowly enough for it
to be safe to do so, pull off the road
and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped to
prevent the vehicle from rolling for-
ward.
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a com-
plete stop and continue to
depress the brake pedal. Shift
the gear to P (Park), then apply
the parking brake, and place the
ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position.
Vehicles parked with the park-
ing brake not applied or not
fully engaged may roll inadver-
tently and may cause injury to
the driver and others. ALWAYS
apply the parking brake before
exiting the vehicle.

The All Wheel Drive (AWD) system
delivers engine torque to both the
front and rear wheels for extra trac-
tion. AWD is useful when maximum
traction is required on slippery,
muddy, wet, or snow-covered roads.
Occasional off-road use such as
established unpaved roads and trails
are OK. It is always important that
the driver carefully reduces the
speed to a level that does not exceed
the safe operating speed for those
conditions. 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 slow-
ly until you feel normal braking
return.
Shorten your scheduled mainte- nance interval if you drive in off-
road conditions such as sand,
mud or water (see "Maintenance
Under Severe Usage Conditions"
in chapter 7).
Always wash your vehicle thor- oughly after off road use, espe-
cially 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.NOTICE

To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
Do not drive in conditions that
exceed the vehicles intended
design such as challenging
off-road conditions.
Avoid high speeds when cor-
nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering
wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,
sharp turns.
The risk of a rollover is great-
ly increased if you lose con-
trol 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.

For safe AWD operation
Before driving
Make sure all passengers arewearing seat belts.
Sit upright and closer to the steer- ing wheel than usual. Adjust the
steering wheel to a position com-
fortable for you to drive.
Driving on snow-covered or icy
roads
Start off slowly by applying theaccelerator pedal gently.
Use snow tires or tire chains.
Keep sufficient distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front
of you.
Apply engine braking during decel- eration by using the paddle shifter
and manually selecting a lower gear.
Avoid speeding, rapid acceleration, sudden brake applications, and
sharp turns to prevent skids.
Driving in sand or mud
Maintain slow and constant speed.
Use tire chains driving in mud ifnecessary.
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. When the vehicle is stuck in
snow, sand or mud, place a non-
slip material under the drive
wheels to provide traction OR
Slowly spin the wheels in for-
ward and reverse directions
which causes a rocking motion
that may free the vehicle.
However, avoid running the
engine continuously at high
RPM, doing so may damage the
AWD system.CAUTION

Additional driving conditions
Become familiar with the off-roadconditions before driving.
Always pay attention when driving off-road and avoid dangerous
areas.
Drive slowly when driving in heavy wind.
Reduce vehicle speed when cor- nering. The center of gravity of
AWD vehicles is higher than con-
ventional 2WD vehicles, making
them more likely to roll over when
you rapidly turn corners.
Always hold the steering wheel firmly when you are driving off-
road.
LCD display message
Transmission hot! Park withengine On
Under certain conditions, such as
repeated stop-and-go launches on
steep grades, sudden take off or
acceleration, or other harsh driving
conditions (mud or sand road), the
transmission temperatures will
increase excessively. Finally the
transmission could be overheated.
Do not grab the inside of the
steering wheel when you are
driving off-road. You may hurt
your arm by a sudden steering
maneuver or from steering wheel
rebound due to an impact with
objects on the ground. You could
lose control of the steering wheel
which may lead to serious injury
or death.

Driving your vehicle
The Idle Stop and Go (ISG) system
automatically and temporarily shuts
down the engine when the vehicle is
stopped and idling to 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 condi-
tions.
The ISG system is always active,
when the engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically
started by the ISG system, some warn-
ing lights (i.e. ABS, ESC, ESC OFF,
EPS, and parking brake warning
light) may illuminate for a few sec-
onds due to the low battery voltage.
However, it does not indicate a mal-
function with the ISG system.
To Activate the ISG System
Prerequisite for activation
The ISG system operates in the fol-
lowing 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 con- stant speed and stops
The climate control system satis- fies 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
The ISG system is
not activated, when
the prerequisites to
activate the ISG sys-
tem are unsatisfied.
In this case, the ISG
OFF button indicator illuminates,
and the auto stop indicator ( )
illuminates in yellow on the instru-
ment cluster.
• When the above indicator remains illuminated on the instrument clus-
ter, we recommend that you have
the IGS system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
