Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with
dualdiagonal br
aking systems. This
means you still have braking on two
wheels even if one of the dual systems
should fail.
With only one of the dual systems
working, more than normal pedal travel
and greater pedal pressure are required
to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working.
If the brakes fail while you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional engine
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid Warning
Light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake &
Brake Fluid Warning Light illuminates

In this case, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
warning light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you set the Engine Start/Stop butt

system).
In this case, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Distribution System Warning
Light
These two warning lights illuminate at the
same time while driving:
