Driving your vehicle
Operating condition
• N Track Sense Shift is enabled in the
Performance Options settings
• Shift lever in D (Drive) position
• Transmission mode is SPORT or
SPORT+ (Including SPORT or N
Riding Mode)
• Vehicle speed is above 21 mph
(35km/h)
• Cornering-oriented dynamic driving
detection
❈When N Track Sense Shift is oper-
ating, a message is displayed in
the instrument cluster LCD screen
as shown below.
Non-operating conditions
• N Track Sense Shift is disabled in
Performance Options settings
• Shift lever position is in P/R/N
• Changing Transmission mode dur-
ing operation (Transmission mode
does not work in ECO, NORMAL
or manual shift mode.)
• Cruise Control is operating
• Engine warning light is on
• Vehicle speed is below 21 mph (35
km/h)
❈When N Track Sense Shift is deac-
tivated, the displayed message will
disappear from the instrument
LCD screen.
N Power Shift (For Dual Clutch
Transmission)
When the driver depresses the
accelerator pedal fully (100%) in N
mode for faster acceleration, it con-
trols by (up-) shifting with minimal
energy loss.
N Power Shift can be deactivated by
pressing 'Activate' on the screen.
When N Power Shift is deactivated,
vehicle shifting is similar to normal
shifting. However, it is activated when
the engine is restarted. Vehicle safety and control must
be at your own discretion and
do not attempt to drive danger-
ously to operate N Track Sense
Shift.

System settings
functions for the system
Forward Safety
With the engine on, select or dese-
lect ‘Driver Assistance →Forward
Safety’ from the Settings menu to set
whether or not to use each function.
- If ‘Auto OFF in N Mode’ is selected
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist that is linked with N mode
will be off automatically and when
canceled ‘Auto OFF in N Mode’ is
canceled.- If ‘Active Assist’ is selected, the
system will warn the driver with a
warning message and an audible
warning depending on the collision
risk levels. Braking assist will be
applied depending on the collision
risk.
- If ‘Warning Only’ is selected, the
system will warn the driver with a
warning message and an audible
warning depending on the collision
risk levels. Braking will not be
assisted.
- If ‘Off’ is selected, the system will
turn off. The warning light will
illuminate on the cluster.
The driver can monitor Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist ON/OFF
status from the Settings menu. If the
warning light remains ON when
the system is ON, we recommend
that the system be inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
will turn off when ESC is turned off
by pressing and holding the ESC OFF
button for more than 3 seconds. The
warning light will illuminate on
the cluster.
i
OBU050220N
If ‘Warning Only’ is selected,
braking is not assisted.
CAUTION
When the engine is restarted,
Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist will always turn on.
However, if ‘Off’ is selected after
the engine is restarted, you can-
not get help from the system so
the driver should always be
aware of the surroundings and
drive safely.

TIRES AND WHEELS
Information - Power Hop
When fully accelerating the vehicle
from standstill, a front tire oscillation
called “Power Hop“ of Veloster N may
occur due to the high torque of engine
and the characteristics of high per-
formance tire. This may be affected by
road condition and temperatures.
Additionally it is a normal phenome
non in powerful front-wheel drive
vehicles. Veloster N will act on this
phenomenon with the traction control
in all ESC modes with the main focus
on high performance character.i•Replace tires that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are
damaged. Worn tires can
cause loss of braking effec-
tiveness, steering control, or
traction.
•ALWAYS replace tires with the
same size as each tire that
was originally supplied with
this vehicle. Using tires and
wheels other than the recom-
mended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteris-
tics, poor vehicle control, or
negatively affect your vehi-
cle's Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) resulting in a serious
accident.
Tire failure may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an
accident. To reduce risk of
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH,
take the following precautions:
•Inspect your tires monthly for
proper inflation as well as
wear and damage.
•The recommended cold tire
pressure for your vehicle can
be found in this manual and
on the tire label located on the
driver's side center pillar.
Always use a tire pressure
gauge to measure tire pres-
sure. Tires with too much or
too little pressure wear
unevenly causing poor han-
dling.
•Check the pressure of the
spare every time you check
the pressure of the other tires
on your vehicle.

Maintenance
Maximum Load Rating
The load rating for a tire at the maxi-
mum permissible inflation pressure
for that tire.
Maximum Loaded Vehicle
Weight
The sum of curb weight; accessory
weight; vehicle capacity weight; and
production options weight.
Normal Occupant Weight
The number of occupants a vehicle
is designed to seat multiplied by 150
pounds (68 kg).
Occupant Distribution
Designated seating positions.
Outward Facing Sidewall
An asymmetrical tire has a particular
side that faces outward when mount-
ed on a vehicle. The outward facing
sidewall bears white lettering or
bears manufacturer, brand, and/or
model name molding that is higher or
deeper than the same moldings on
the inner facing sidewall.
Passenger (P-Metric) tire
A tire used on passenger cars and
some light duty trucks and multipur-
pose vehicles.
Ply
A layer of rubber-coated parallel
cords.
Pneumatic tire
A mechanical device made of rubber,
chemicals, fabric and steel or other
materials, that, when mounted on an
automotive wheel provides the trac-
tion and contains the gas or fluid that
sustains the load.
Pneumatic options weight
The combined weight of installed
regular production options weighing
over 5 lb. (2.3 kg) in excess of the
standard items which they replace,
not previously considered in curb
weight or accessory weight, includ-
ing heavy duty breaks, ride levelers,

Vehicle manufacturer's recommend-
ed tire inflation pressure as shown
on the tire placard.
Radial Ply Tire
A pneumatic tire in which the ply
cords that extend to the beads are
laid at 90 degrees to the centerline of
the tread.
Rim
A metal support for a tire and upon

Maintenance
Traction
The friction between the tire and the
road surface. The amount of grip pro-
vided.
Tread
The portion of a tire that comes into
contact with the road.
Treadwear Indicators
Narrow bands, sometimes called
"wear bars", that show across the
tread of a tire when only 2/32nds of
an inch of tread remains.
UTQGS
Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Standards is a tire information sys-
tem that provides consumers with
ratings for a tire's traction, tempera-
ture and treadwear. Ratings are
determined by tire manufacturers
using government testing proce-
dures. The ratings are molded into
the sidewall of the tire.
Vehicle Capacity Weight
The number of designated seating
positions multiplied by 150 lbs. (68
kg) plus the rated cargo and luggage
load.
Vehicle Maximum Load on the
Tire
Load on an individual tire due to curb
and accessory weight plus maximum
occupant and cargo weight.
Vehicle Normal Load on the Tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each
axle its share of the curb weight,
accessory weight, and normal occu-
pant weight and dividing by 2.
Vehicle Placard
A label permanently attached to a
vehicle showing the original equip-
ment tire size and recommended
inflation pressure.
All Season Tires
HYUNDAI specifies all season tires
on some models to provide good
performance for use all year round,
including snowy and icy road condi-
tions. All season tires are identified
by ALL SEASON and/or M+S (Mud
and Snow) on the tire sidewall. Snow
tires have better snow traction than
all season tires and may be more
appropriate in some areas.
Summer Tires
HYUNDAI specifies summer tires on
some models to provide superior
performance on dry roads. Summer
tire performance is substantially
reduced in snow and ice. Summer
tires do not have the tire traction rat-
ing M+S (Mud and Snow) on the tire
side wall. If you plan to operate your
vehicle in snowy or icy conditions,
HYUNDAI recommends the use of
snow tires or all season tires on all
four wheels.
