Driving your vehicle
If this occurs, we recommend that
the system be checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
The EPB malfunction indicator may
illuminate when the ESC indicator
comes on to indicate that the ESC is
not working properly, but it does not
indicate a malfunction of the EPB.
Emergency braking
If there is a problem with the brake
pedal while driving, emergency brak-
ing is possible by pulling up and
holding the EPB switch. Braking is
possible only while you are holding
the EPB switch.
✽NOTICE
During emergency braking by the
EPB, the parking brake warning
light will illuminate to indicate that
the system is operating.
•If the EPB warning light is still
on, we recommend that the
system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•If the parking brake warning
light does not illuminate or
blinks even though the EPB
switch was pulled up, the EPB
may not be applied.
•If the parking brake warning
light blinks when the EPB
warning light is on, press the
switch, then pull it up. Once
more press it back to its origi-
nal position and pull it back
up. If the EPB warning does
not go off, we recommend that
the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
Do not operate the parking
brake while the vehicle is mov-
ing except in an emergency sit-
uation.

an authorized HYUNDAI dealer by
loading the vehicle on a flatbed tow
truck and have the system checked.
AUTO HOLD (if equipped)
The Auto Hold maintains the vehicle
in a standstill even though the brake
pedal is not depressed after the driv-
er brings the vehicle to a complete
stop by depressing the brake pedal.

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
ABS is an electronic braking system
that helps prevent a braking skid.
ABS allows the driver to steer and
brake at the same time.
ODH053055L
An Anti-Lock Braking System
(ABS) or an Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system will not
prevent accidents due to
improper or dangerous driving
maneuvers. Even though vehicle
control is improved during emer-
gency braking, always maintain
a safe distance between you and
objects ahead of you. Vehicle
speeds should always be
reduced during extreme road
conditions. The braking distance
for cars equipped with ABS or
ESC may be longer than for
those without these systems in
the following road conditions.
•Drive your vehicle at reduced
speeds during the following
conditions:
•Rough, gravel or snow-cov-
ered roads.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•On roads where the road sur-
face is pitted or has different
surface height.
•Tire chains are installed on
your vehicle.
The safety features of an ABS
or ESC equipped vehicle should
not be tested by high speed
driving or cornering. This could
endanger the safety of yourself
or others.

Driving your vehicle
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 conditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stability.
Always steer moderately when brak-
ing hard. Severe or sharp steering
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 normal. If the
light stays on, you may have a prob-
lem with your ABS. We recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
✽NOTICE
When you jump start your vehicle
because of a drained battery, the
ABS warning light ( ) may turn
on at the same time. This happens
because of the low battery voltage. It
does not mean your ABS is malfunc-
tioning. Have the battery recharged
before driving the vehicle.
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.
WARNING
When you drive on a road having
poor traction, such as an icy
road, and apply your brakes con-
tinuously, the ABS will be active
continuously and the ABS warn-
ing light ( ) may illuminate.
Pull your car 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
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.

Electronic Stability Control
(ESC)
The Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) system helps to stabilize the
vehicle during cornering maneuvers.
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 man-
agement 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.
ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the Engine Start/Stop button
is in the ON position, the ESC and
the ESC OFF indicator lights illumi-
nate for approximately three seconds
and goes off, then the ESC is turned
on.
When the ESC is off while driving, to
turn the ESC on, select ESC ON
from the User Settings Mode (Driving
Assist) on the LCD display (For more
details, refer to "LCD Display" in
chapter 3.). If this light stays on, your
vehicle may have a malfunction with
the ESC system. We recommend
that the vehicle be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible. The ESC indicator light
will illuminate. 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
maneuvers, and hydroplaning
on wet surfaces can result in
severe accidents.

When operating
When the ESC is in opera-
tion, the ESC indicator light
blinks:
• 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 ESC is
active.
• When the ESC activates, the
engine may not respond to the
accelerator as it does under rou-
tine conditions.
• If the Cruise Control was in use
when the ESC activates, the
Cruise Control automatically disen-
gages. The Cruise Control can be
reengaged when the road condi-
tions allow. See “Cruise Control
System” later in this chapter. (if
equipped)• When moving out of the mud or
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 sta-
bility and traction of the vehicle and
does not indicate a problem.
ESC OFF condition
To cancel ESC operation :
• ESC OFF (TCS OFF)
Select ESC OFF (TCS OFF) from
the User Settings Mode (Driving
Assist) on the LCD display. The ESC
OFF indicator light will illuminate (For
more details, refer to "LCD Display"
in chapter 3.). The traction control
function will not operate but the
brake control function will operate.

ing normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks when-
ever the ESC is operating.
If 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 an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.The ESC OFF indicator light comes
on when the ESC is turned off from
the User Settings Mode.
■ESC indicator light (blinks)

When the ESC is blinking, this
indicates the ESC is active:
Drive slowly and NEVER
attempt to accelerate. NEVER
turn the ESC off while the ESC
indicator light is blinking or you
may lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
WARNING
Driving with varying tire or
wheel sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. When
replacing tires, make sure they
are the same size as your origi-
nal tires for this vehicle.
