Idle Stop and Go helps reduce fuel
consumption by automatically shutting
down the engine, when the vehicle is
at a standstill (i.e. red stop light, stop
sign, and traffic jam) subject to certain
prerequisite conditions being satisfied as
listed below.
The engine is automatically started upon
satisfying the starting conditions.
ISG system is always active, when the
engine is running.
Information
When the engine is automatically started
by ISG system, warning lights (i.e. ABS,
ESC, ESC OFF, EPS, and parking brake
warning light) may illuminate for a few
seconds due to low battery voltage.
However, it does not indicate a
malfunction with ISG system.

When certain conditions are met, the
engine is automatically decoupled from
the transmission while gear remains in D
(Drive). When Coasting is operating, the
engine stays at idling speed to reduce
fuel consumption and increase coasting
distance.
Coasting Setting

• The Coasting function must be turned
ON from the Settings menu in the
infotainment system screen. Select:
-6HWXS

Coasting Release Conditions
The Coasting function will be
automatically released when the
following conditions are met.
• COMFORT, SPORT, or SPORT+ mode
is selected for driving mode
• The driver uses the paddle shifter
• Smart Cruise Control is activated (Set
speed appears on the cluster)
• The vehicle’s speed exceeds 30~100
mph (50~160 km/h) range
• The road gradient is under -5% or over
+5%
• If the distance between the vehicle
ahead is too close or the relative
speed changes momentarily in Smart
mode
• If lane change is predicated in Smart
mode (e.g. the turn signal is turned
ON or a LKA warning appears due to
steering wheel control, etc.)
Information
It is recommended to turn off the
Coasting function if you are driving under
frequently stop-and-go condition. Change
the drive mode to Comfort or Sport or
deselect Coasting from the infotainment
system screen.
NOTICE
• If the accelerator pedal is pressed
quickly for accelerating with the
Coasting function in operation,
acceleration may occur after the
engagement of the clutch inside the
transmission. In turn, the driver may
continue to feel acceleration even
after the system is turned off.
• Driving with the Coasting function
off may be required in some cases
since the engine brake is not applied
while the Coasting function is
operating.
• Operating the infotainment system
screen to activate or deactivate
the Coasting function while driving
may be dangerous as the driver’s
attention is distracted.

Drive mode may be selected according
to the driver's preference or road
condition.
Drive Mode
The mode changes whenever the driver
pushes the DRIVE MODE switch up or
down.
COMFORT mode
COMFORT mode provides smooth
driving and comfortable riding.
ECO mode
ECO mode helps improve fuel
efficiency for eco-friendly
driving.
Fuel efficiency varies according
to the driver's driving habit and
road condition.
• When ECO mode is selected, the
ECO indicator will illuminate on the
instrument cluster.• When ECO mode is activated:
- The acceleration response may be
slightly reduced if the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
- The air conditioner performance
may be limited.
- The shift pattern of the automatic
transmission may change.
- Engine noise may be louder at some
automatic transmission shifts as
down-shift requires pressing down
more on the accelerator.
The above situations are normal
conditions when ECO mode is
activated to help improve fuel
efficiency.
Limitations of ECO mode
If the following conditions occur while
ECO mode is operating, the system
operation is limited even though there is
no change in the ECO indicator.
• When coolant temperature is low:
The system will be limited until engine
performance becomes normal.
• When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.
• When driving the vehicle in manual
shift mode using the paddle shifter.
The system will be limited according
to the shift location.

Hazardous Driving Conditions
When hazardous driving elements
are encountered such as water, snow,
ice, mud and sand, take the following
precautions:
• Drive cautiously and maintain a longer
braking distance.
• Avoid abrupt braking or steering.
• When your vehicle is stuck in
snow, mud, or sand, use second
gear. Accelerate slowly to avoid
unnecessary wheel spin.
• Put sand, rock salt, tire chains or other
non-slip materials under the wheels to
provide additional traction while the
vehicle becomes stuck in ice, snow,
or mud.
WARNING
Using the paddle shifters to downshift
to a lower gear while driving on slippery
surfaces can cause an accident. The
sudden change in tire speed could
cause the tires to skid. Be careful when
downshifting on slippery surfaces.
ACTIVE SOUND DESIGN
• Active Sound Design is a function
that provides enhanced virtual engine
sound when the driver is depressing
the accelerator pedal.
• You can activate or deactivate Active
Sound Design function from the
Settings menu in the infotainment
system screen. Select:

Rocking the Vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to
free it from snow, sand, or mud, first turn
the steering wheel right and left to clear
the area around your front wheels. Then,
shift back and forth between R (Reverse)
and a forward gear.
Try to avoid spinning the wheels, and do
not race the engine.
To prevent transmission wear, wait until
the wheels stop spinning before shifting
gears. Release the accelerator pedal
while shifting, and press lightly on the
accelerator pedal while the transmission
is in gear. Slowly spinning the wheels in
forward and reverse directions causes a
rocking motion that may free the vehicle.
WARNING
If the vehicle is stuck and excessive
wheel spin occurs, the temperature
in the tires can increase very quickly.
If the tires become damaged, a tire
blow out or tire explosion can occur.
This condition is dangerous - you and
others may be injured. Do not attempt
this procedure if people or objects are
anywhere near the vehicle.
If you attempt to free the vehicle, the
vehicle can overheat quickly, possibly
causing an engine compartment fire
or other damage. Try to avoid spinning
the wheels as much as possible to
prevent overheating of either the tires
or the engine. DO NOT allow the vehicle
to spin the wheels above 35 mph (56
km/h).
Information
The ESC system must be turned OFF
before rocking the vehicle.
NOTICE
If you are still stuck after rocking the
vehicle a few times, have the vehicle
pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid
engine overheating, possible damage to
the transmission, and tire damage. See
“Towing” section in chapter 8.
Smooth Cornering
Avoid braking or gear changing in
corners, especially when roads are wet.
Ideally, corners should always be taken
under gentle acceleration.
Driving at Night
Night driving presents more hazards than
driving in the daylight. Here are some
important tips to remember:
• Slow down and keep more distance
between you and other vehicles, as it
may be more difficult to see at night,
especially in areas where there may
not be any street lights.
• Adjust your mirrors to reduce the glare
from other drivers’ headlamps.
• Keep your headlamps clean and
properly aimed. Dirty or improperly
aimed headlamps will make it much
more difficult to see at night.
• Avoid staring directly at the
headlamps of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and it
will take several seconds for your eyes
to readjust to the darkness.
