Information - Kickdown
Mechanism (if equipped)
Use the kickdown mechanism for
maximum acceleration. Depress the
accelerator pedal beyond the pressure
point. The automatic transmission will
shift to a lower gear depending on the
engine speed.i

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.
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS wear your seat belt.
In a collision, an unrestrained
occupant is significantly more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed than a properly
restrained occupant.
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 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.

Parking
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.
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.
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 transmis-
sion 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.
Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator. When you stay in the vehicle
with the engine running, be
careful not to depress the accel-
erator 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 flam-
mable materials, such as dry
grass, paper or leaves. They
may ignite and cause a fire.

Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your
brake pressure and do not try to
pump your brakes. Depress your
brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
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 ABS is
active.
ABS does not reduce the time or dis-
tance it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that
results from sudden changes in
direction, such as trying to take a
corner too fast or making a sudden
lane change. Always drive at a safe
speed for the road and weather con-
ditions.ABS cannot prevent a loss of stabili-
ty. Always steer moderately when
braking hard. Severe or sharp steer-
ing wheel movement can still cause
your vehicle to veer into oncoming
traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake sys-
tem may result in a longer stopping
distance than for vehicles equipped
with a conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light ( ) will stay
on for several seconds after the
Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON
position. During that time, the ABS
will go through self-diagnosis and the
light will go off if everything is nor-
mal. If the light stays on, you may
have a problem with your ABS. We
recommend that you contact an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.When you drive on a road having
poor traction, such as an icy road,
and apply your brakes continu-
ously, the ABS will be active con-
tinuously and the ABS warning
light ( ) may illuminate. Pull
your vehicle over to a safe place
and turn the engine off.
Restart the engine. If the ABS
warning light is off, then your ABS
system is normal.
Otherwise, you may have a prob-
lem with your ABS system. We
recommend that you contact an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
If the ABS warning light ( ) is
on and stays on, you may have
a problem with the ABS. Your
power brakes will work normal-
ly. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, we recommend
that you contact your HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.

LKA system Operation
To activate/deactivate the LKA sys-
tem:
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, press the LKA system but-
ton located on the instrument panel
at the right hand side of the steering
wheel. The indicator in the cluster
display will initially illuminate white.
This indicates the LKA system is in
the READY but NOT ENABLED
state.The colour of indicator
will change depending on
the condition of LKA sys-
tem.
- White :Sensor does not detect
lane lines or vehicle speed
is under 64 km/h.
- Green : Sensor detects lane lines
and the system is able to
control vehicle steering.
LKA system activation
To see the LKA system screen on
the LCD display in the cluster,
select Assist mode ( ). For more
details, refer to "LCD Display
Modes" in chapter 3.
When both lane lines are detected
and all the conditions to activate
the LKA system are satisfied, a
green steering wheel indicator will
illuminate and the LKA system
indicator light will change from
white to green. This indicates that
the LKA system is in the
ENABLED state and the steering
wheel will be able to be controlled.

If the system detects a lane line,
the colour changes from gray to
white.
If the system detects the left lane
line, the left lane line colour will
change from gray to white.
If the system detects the right lane
line, the right lane line colour will
change from gray to white.
Both lane lines must be detected
for the system to fully activate. If your vehicle speed exceeds 64
km/h and the LKA system button is
ON, the system is enabled. If your
vehicle departs from the projected
lane in front of you, the LKA sys-
tem operates as follows:
A visual warning appears on the
cluster LCD display. Either the left
lane line or the right lane line in the
cluster LCD display will blink
depending on which direction the
vehicle is veering.
If the steering wheel appears, the
system will control the vehicle’s
steering to prevent the vehicle from
crossing the lane line. The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is a system to prevent
the driver from leaving the lane.
However, the driver should not
solely rely on the system but
always check the road condi-
tions when driving.

Driving your vehicle
The LKA system will not be in the
ENABLED state and the steering
wheel will not be assisted when:
The turn signal is turned on before
changing a lane. If you change
lanes without the turn signal on,
the steering wheel might be con-
trolled.
The vehicle is not driven in the mid-
dle of the lane when the system is
turned on or right after changing a
lane.
ESC (Electronic Stability Control)
is activated.
The vehicle is driven on a sharp
curve.
Vehicle speed is below 60 km/h or
over 180 km/h.
The vehicle makes sharp lane
changes.
The vehicle brakes suddenly.
Only one lane line is detected.
The lane is very wide or narrow.
There are more than two lane lines
on the road (e.g. construction area).
The vehicle is driven on a steep
incline.
Limitations of the System
The LKA system may operate pre-
maturely even if the vehicle does not
depart from the intended lane, OR,
the LKAS may not warn you if the
vehicle leaves the intended lane
under the following circumstances:
When the lane and road conditions
are poor
It is difficult to distinguish the lane
marking from the road surface or
the lane marking is faded or not
clearly marked.
There are markings on the road
surface that look like a lane line
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
The lane line is merged or divided
(e.g. tollgate).
The lane number increases or
decreases or the lane markers are
crossing complicatedly.
There are more than two lane lines
on the road in front of you.
The lanes ahead are not visible
due to rain, snow, water on the
road, damaged or stained road
surface, or other factors. A shadow is on the lane marker by
a median strip, trees, etc.
The lanes are incomplete or the
area is in a construction zone.
There are crosswalk signs or other
symbols on the road.
The lane line in a tunnel is stained
with oil, etc.
When external condition is inter-
vened
The brightness outside changes
suddenly such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel or passing under a
bridge.
The brightness outside is too low
such as when the headlamps are
not on at night or the vehicle is
going through a tunnel.
There is a boundary structure in
the roadway such as a concrete
barrier, guardrail and reflector post
that is inadvertently being detected
by the camera.
When light coming from a street
light or an oncoming vehicle is
reflected on a wet road surface
such as a puddle on the road.
The field of view in front is
obstructed by sun glare.

The surrounding of the inside rear
view mirror temperature is high
due to direct sunlight.
When front visibility is poor
The windscreen or the LKA system
camera lens is blocked with dirt or
debris.
The windscreen glass is fogged
up; a clear view of the road is
obstructed.
Placing objects on the instrument
panel, etc.LKA system Function Change
The driver can change LKA to the
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) sys-
tem or change the LKA system mode
between Standard LKA and Active
LKA from the LCD display. Go to the
"User Settings →Driver Assistance
→Lane Safety →Lane Departure
Warning / Standard LKA / Active
LKA".
Lane Departure Warning
LDW alerts the driver with a visual
warning and a warning alarm when
the system detects the vehicle
departing the lane. The steering
wheel will not be controlled.
Standard LKA
The Standard LKA mode guides the
driver to help keep the vehicle within
the lanes. It rarely controls the steer-
ing wheel, when the vehicle drives
well inside the lanes. However, it
starts to control the steering wheel,
when the vehicle is about to deviate
out of the lanes.
Active LKA
The Active LKA mode provides more
frequent steering wheel control in
comparison with the Standard LKA
mode. Active LKA can reduce the dri-
ver’s fatigue to assist the steering for
maintaining the vehicle in the middle
of the lane.
