on a slippery surface. Be especially
careful when braking, accelerating or
shifting gears. On a slippery surface,
an abrupt change in vehicle speed can
cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.
WARNING
Do not use the engine brake (shifting
from a higher gear to lower gear)
rapidly on slippery roads. The vehicle
may slip causing an accident.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
[ ALWAYS wear your seatbelt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
[ 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 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.
[ HYUNDAI recommends you follow all
posted speed limits.

Good driving practices
[ Never take the vehicle out of gear and
coast down a hill. This is extremely
hazardous. Always leave the vehicle
in gear.
[ Don’t “ride” the brakes. This can cause
them to overheat and malfunction.
Instead, when you are driving down a
long hill, shift to a lower gear. When
you do this, the engine braking will
help slow down the vehicle.
[ Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. This will help avoid over-revving
the engine, which can cause damage.
[ Slow down when you encounter cross
winds. This gives you much better
control of your vehicle.
[ Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into reverse. The transmission can be
damaged if you do not.
[ Exercise extreme caution when driving
on a slippery surface. Be especially
careful when braking, accelerating or
shifting gears. On a slippery surface,
an abrupt change in vehicle speed can
cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and the vehicle to go out of control. WARNING
[ Always buckle-up! In a collision, an
unbelted occupant is significantly
more likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly belted
occupant.
[ 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 rollover is greatly
ncreased 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 oversteers 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.
[ Never exceed posted speed limits.

Driving your vehicle
Ignition key interlock system
(if equipped)
The ignition key cannot be removed
unless the shift lever is in the P (Park)
position.
3 D U N L Q J
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake, and
place the ignition switch in the LOCK/
OFF position. Take the Key with you
when exiting the vehicle.
WARNING
When you stay in the vehicle with
the engine running, be careful not to
depress the accelerator pedal for a long
period of time. The engine or exhaust
system may overheat and start a fire.
The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep away from
the exhaust system components.
Do not stop or park over flammable
materials, such as dry grass, paper or
leaves. They may ignite and cause a
fire.
Good driving practices
[ Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
[ Never move the shift lever into P
(Park) when the vehicle is in motion.
[ Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
[ Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so may
result in an accident because of a loss
of engine braking and the transmission
could be damaged.
[ Driving uphill or downhill, always shift
to D (Drive) when driving forward or to
R (Reverse) when driving backwards,
and check the gear position indicated
on the cluster before driving. If you
drive in the opposite direction of the
selected gear, the engine will turn
off and a serious accident might be
occurred due to the degraded brake
performance.
[ Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can result
in the brakes overheating, brake wear
and possibly even brake failure.
[ When driving in manual shift mode,
slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may
not be engaged if the engine rpms are
outside of the allowable range.
[ Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend on
placing the transmission in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.
[ Exercise extreme caution when driving
on a slippery surface. Be especially
careful when braking, accelerating or
shifting gears. On a slippery surface,
an abrupt change in vehicle speed can
cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.

Electronic Stability Control
(ESC)
OBC3N061006AU
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system helps to stabilize the vehicle
during cornering manoeuvres.
ESC checks where you are steering and
where the vehicle is actually going.
ESC applies braking pressure to any one
of the vehicle’s brakes and intervenes in
the engine management system to assist
the driver with keeping the vehicle on
the intended path. It is not a substitute
for safe driving practices. Always adjust
your speed and driving to the road
conditions.
WARNING
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions or too quickly when
cornering. The ESC system will not
prevent accidents.
Excessive speed in turns, abrupt
manoeuvres, and hydroplaning on wet
surfaces can result in severe accidents.
ESC operation
( 6 & 2 1 F R Q G L W L R Q
When the ignition switch is in the
ON position, the ESC and the ESC
OFF indicator lights illuminate for
approximately three seconds. After both
lights go off, the ESC is enabled.

When the ESC is in
operation, the ESC indicator
light blinks:

conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in
the brake pedal. This is normal and it
means your ESC is active.

automatically disengages. The Cruise
Control can be reengaged when the
road conditions allow. See “Cruise
Control System” later in this chapter
7 (if equipped).
[ : K H Q P R Y L Q J R X W R I W K H P X G R U
driving on a slippery road, the engine
RPM (revolutions per minute) may
not increase even if you press the
accelerator pedal deeply. This is to
maintain the stability and traction of
the vehicle and does not indicate a
problem.

( 6 & 2 ) ) F R Q G L W L R Q
To cancel ESC operation :
[ 6 W D W H
Press the ESC OFF button briefly. The
ESC OFF indicator light and/or message
‘Traction Control disabled’ will illuminate
and a warning chime sounds. In this
state, the traction control function of
ESC (engine management) is disabled,
but the brake control function of ESC
(braking management) still operates.
[ 6 W D W H
Press and hold the ESC OFF button
continuously for more than 3 seconds.
The ESC OFF indicator light and/or
message ‘Traction control and ESC
disabled’ illuminates and a warning
chime sounds. In this state, both the
traction control function of ESC (engine
management) and the brake control
function of ESC (braking management)
are disabled.
If the ignition switch is placed in the
LOCK/OFF position when ESC is off, ESC
remains off. Upon restarting the vehicle,
the ESC will automatically turn on again.
Indicator lights
„ ESC indicator light (blinks)
„ ESC OFF indicator light (comes on)
OTD059013
OTD059012
When the ignition switch is in the
ON position, the ESC indicator light
illuminates, then goes off if the ESC
system is operating normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks whenever
the ESC is operating.
If the ESC indicator light stays on, your
vehicle may have a malfunction with
the ESC system. When this warning
light illuminates we recommend that
the vehicle be checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer as soon as possible.
The ESC OFF indicator light comes on
when the ESC is turned off with the
button.
WARNING
When the ESC is blinking, this indicates
the ESC is active:
Drive slowly and NEVER attempt to
accelerate. NEVER turn the ESC off
whilst the ESC indicator light is blinking
or you may lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
NOTICE
Driving with wheels and tyres with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tyres, make sure all four tyres
and wheels are the same size. Never
drive the vehicle with different sized
wheels and tyres installed.
