• When abnormality is detected in
the electric power steering system,
to prevent a deadly accident, the
steering assist function will stop.
At this time, the warning light
turns on or blinks on the cluster.
The steering wheel may become
difficult to control or operate.
Have your vehicle checked imme-
diately, after moving the vehicle to
a safe zone.
• When the charging system warning light comes on due to low voltage
(when the alternator or battery
does not operate normally or mal-
function), the steering wheel may
require increased steering effort.
• If the vehicle needs to be jump started due to battery discharge,
the steering wheel may not function
normally. This is a temporary situ-
ation caused by low battery volt-
age. It will be solved once the bat-
tery is charged. Check for normal
steering function by turning the
steering wheel slowly before driv-
ing the vehicle.Tilt and telescopic steering
Tilt and telescopic steering allows
you to adjust the steering wheel
before you drive. You can also raise it
to give your legs more space when
you get on or off the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be posi-
tioned so that it is comfortable for
you to drive, while permitting you to
see the instrument panel warning
lights and gauges. To change the steering wheel angle,
pull down the lock-release lever (1),
adjust the steering wheel to the
desired angle (2) and height (3) then
pull up the lock-release lever to lock
(4) the steering wheel in place. Be
sure to adjust the steering wheel to
the desired position before driving.
✽ ✽NOTICE
After adjustment, sometimes the
lock release lever may not lock the
steering wheel. It is not a malfunc-
tion. This occurs when two gears are
not engaged correctly. In this case,
adjust the steering wheel again and
then lock the steering wheel.
WARNING- Steering
