Power steering
Power steering uses energy from the
engine to assist you in steering the vehi-
cle. If the engine is off or if the power
steering system becomes inoperative,
the vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power steer-
ing checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Electronic Hydraulic Power Steering
(EHPS)
EHPS uses an electromotor to assist you
in steering the vehicle. It senses the vehi-
cle speed and road condition.
If the engine is off or if the power steer-
ing system becomes inoperative, the
vehicle may still be steered, but it will
require increased steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the power steer-
ing checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
STEERING WHEEL
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel
against a stop (extreme right or left
turn) for more than 5 seconds with
the engine running. Holding the
steering wheel for more than 5 sec-
onds in either position may cause
damage to the power steering
pump.

Good driving practices
• Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other posi-
tion 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).
• Never take the vehicle out of gear and
coast down a hill. This may be
extremely hazardous. Always leave the
vehicle in gear when moving.
• Do not "ride" the brakes. This can
cause them to overheat and malfunc-
tion. Instead, when you are driving
down a long hill, slow down and shift to
a lower gear. When you do this, engine
braking will help slow the vehicle.
• Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may
not be engaged.• Always use the parking brake. Do not
depend on placing the transmission in
P (Park) to keep the vehicle from mov-
ing.
• 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.
• Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the accelera-
tor pedal.WARNING
• Always buckle-up! In a collision,
an unbelted occupant is signifi-
cantly more likely to be seriously
injured or killed than a properly
belted occupant.
• Avoid high speeds when corner-
ing 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.
• Lossing 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.
• Never exceed posted speed lim-
its.

Driving your vehicle
A vehicle ahead cannot be recognized
correctly by the sensor if any of following
occurs:
- When the vehicle is pointing upwards
due to overloading in the trunk
- While the steering wheel is operating
- When driving to one side of the lane
- When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves
Apply the brakes or accelerator pedal if
necessary.(Continued)
• The smart cruise control system
is not a substitute for safe driving
practices but a convenience
function only. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always
check the speed and the distance
to the vehicle ahead.
• Always be aware of the selected
speed and vehicle to vehicle dis-
tance.
• Always maintain sufficient brak-
ing distance and decelerate your
vehicle by applying the brakes if
necessary.
• As the smart cruise control sys-
tem may not recognize complex
driving situations, always pay
attention to driving conditions
and control your vehicle speed.
• For safe operation, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this
manual before use.WARNING
• The vehicle cannot be stopped by
using the smart cruise control
system.
If an emergency stop is neces-
sary, you must apply the brakes.
• Keep a safe distance according
to road conditions and vehicle
speed. If the vehicle to vehicle
distance is too close during a
high-speed driving, it may cause
a serious collision.
• The smart cruise control system
can not recognize a stopped
vehicle, pedestrians or an
oncoming vehicle. Always look
ahead cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situa-
tions from occurring.
• In front of you, vehicles moving
with a frequent lane change may
cause a delay in the system's
reaction or may cause the system
to react to a vehicle actually in an
adjacent lane. Always look ahead
cautiously to prevent unexpected
and sudden situations from
occurring.
(Continued)
CAUTION
The smart cruise control system
may not operate temporarily due to
electrical interference.
