Power brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes
that adjust automatically through normal
usage.
If the engine is not running or is turned
off while driving, the power assist for
the brakes will not work. You can still
stop your vehicle by applying greater
force to the brake pedal than typical.
The stopping distance, however, will be
longer than with power brakes.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially depleted
each time the brake pedal is applied.
Do not pump the brake pedal when the
power assist has been interrupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when
necessary to maintain steering control
on slippery surfaces.
WARNING
Take the following precautions:
• Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. This will create
abnormal high brake temperatures,
excessive brake lining and pad wear,
and increased stopping distances.
• When descending a long or steep
hill, shift to a lower gear and avoid
continuous application of the brakes.
Applying the brakes continuously
will cause the brakes to overheat and
could result in a temporary loss of
braking performance.
• Wet brakes may impair the vehicle’s
ability to safely slow down; the
vehicle may also pull to one side
when the brakes are applied.
Applying the brakes lightly will
indicate whether they have been
affected in this way. Always test your
brakes in this fashion after driving
through deep water. To dry the
brakes, lightly tap the brake pedal to
heat up the brakes while maintaining
a safe forward speed until brake
performance returns to normal.
Avoid driving at high speeds until the
brakes function correctly.
Disc brakes wear indicator
When your brake pads are worn and new
pads are required, you will hear a high
pitched warning sound from your front
or rear brakes. You may hear this sound
come and go or it may occur whenever
you depress the brake pedal.
Please remember some driving
conditions or climates may cause a
brake squeal when you first apply (or
lightly apply) the brakes. This is normal
and does not indicate a problem with
your brakes.
NOTICE
To avoid costly brake repairs, do not
continue to drive with worn brake pads.
i Information
Always replace brake pads as complete
front or rear axle sets.

WARNING
If the ABS warning light () is on and
stays on, you may have a problem with
the ABS. Your power brakes will work
normally. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, we recommend that
you contact your HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
NOTICE
When you drive on a road having poor
traction, such as an icy road, and apply
your brakes continuously, the ABS will
be active continuously 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 problem
with your ABS system. We recommend
that you contact an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
i Information
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 malfunctioning. Have the battery
recharged before driving the vehicle.
Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) (if equipped)
OBI3060006OBI3060006
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 management 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.
WARNING
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.

VSM operation
When operating
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may activate the ESC,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal. This is normal and it means
your VSM is active.
i Information
The VSM does not operate when:
• Driving on a banked road such as
gradient or incline
• Driving in reverse.
• The ESC OFF indicator light is on.
• The EPS (Electric Power Steering)
warning light (
) is on or blinks.
WARNING
If the ESC indicator light () or
EPS warning light (
) stays on
or blinks, your vehicle may have a
malfunction with the VSM system.
When the warning light illuminates
we recommend that the vehicle be
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
Driving with wheels and tires with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tires, make sure all four tires
and wheels are the same size. Never
drive the vehicle with different sized
tires and wheels installed.
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
(if equipped)
The Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)
helps prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when starting a vehicle from
a stop on a hill. The system operates the
brakes automatically for approximately
2 seconds and releases the brake after 2
seconds or when the accelerator pedal is
depressed.
WARNING
Always be ready to depress the
accelerator pedal when starting off on
a incline. The HAC activates only for
approximately 2 seconds.
i Information
• The HAC does not operate when the
shift lever is in P (Park) or N (Neutral).
• The HAC activates even when the ESC
(Electronic Stability Control) is off.
However, it does not activate, when the
ESC does not operate normally.

7-46
Driving your vehicle
Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
The Emergency Stop Signal system
alerts the driver behind by blinking the
stop light when the vehicle is braked
rapidly and severely.
The system is activated when:
• The vehicle suddenly stops (vehicle
speed is over 55 km/h and the vehicle
deceleration at greater than 7 m/s
2)
• The ABS is activating
When the vehicle speed is under 40
km/h and the ABS deactivates or the
sudden stop situation is over, the stop
light blinking will stop. Instead, the
hazard warning flasher will turn on
automatically.
The hazard warning flasher will turn off
when vehicle speed is over 10 km/h after
the vehicle has stopped. Also, it will turn
off when the vehicle is driven at low
speed for some time. You can turn it off
manually by pushing the hazard warning
flasher switch.
CAUTION
The Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
system will not work if the hazard
warning flasher is already on.
Good braking practices
WARNING
Whenever leaving the vehicle or
parking, always come to a complete
stop and continue to depress the brake
pedal. Move the shift lever into the 1st
gear (for manual transmission vehicle)
or N (Neutral) position (for Automated
Manual Transmission vehicle), then
apply the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF
position.
Vehicles with the parking brake not
fully engaged are at risk for moving
inadvertently and causing injury to
yourself or others.
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The
brakes may get wet if the vehicle is
driven through standing water or if it is
washed. Your vehicle will not stop as
quickly if the brakes are wet. Wet brakes
may cause the vehicle to pull to one
side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
lightly until the braking action returns to
normal, taking care to keep the vehicle
under control at all times. If the braking
action does not return to normal, stop
as soon as it is safe to do so and we
recommend that you call an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting on
the brake pedal. Even light, but constant
pedal pressure can result in the brakes
overheating, brake wear, and possibly
even brake failure.
