[ Optimum vehicle performance and
economy is obtained by smoothly
depressing and releasing the
accelerator.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
[ ALWAYS wear your seat belt. In a
collision, an unbelted occupant
is significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than a
properly belted occupant.
[ Avoid high speeds when cornering 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.
[ Loss of 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.
[ HYUNDAI recommends you follow all
posted speed limits.

Always come to a complete stop before
shifting into P (Park).
To shift from P (Park), you must depress
firmly on the brake pedal and make sure
your foot is off the accelerator pedal.
If you have done all of the above and
still cannot shift the lever out of P
(Park), see “Shift-Lock Release” in this
chapter.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) before
turning the engine off.
WARNING
[ Shifting into P (Park) whilst the
vehicle is in motion may cause you to
lose control of the vehicle.
[ After the vehicle has stopped, always
make sure the shift lever is in P (Park),
apply the parking brake, and turn the
engine off.
[ When parking on an incline, place the
shift lever in P (Park) and apply the
parking brake to prevent the vehicle
from rolling downhill.
[ For safety, always engage the parking
brake with the shift lever in the P

Driving your vehicle
Good driving practices
[ Never move the shift lever from P
(Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position 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).
[ Do not move the shift lever to N
(Neutral) when driving. Doing so may
result in an accident because of a loss
of engine braking and the transmission
could be damaged.
[ Driving uphill or downhill, always shift
to D (Drive) when driving forward or to
R (Reverse) when driving backwards,
and check the gear position indicated
on the cluster before driving. If you
drive in the opposite direction of the
selected gear, the engine will turn
off and a serious accident might be
occurred due to the degraded brake
performance.
[ Do not drive with your foot resting
on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can result
in the brakes overheating, brake wear
and possibly even brake failure.
[ When driving in manual shift mode,
slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. Otherwise, the lower gear may
not be engaged if the engine rpms are
outside of the allowable range.
[ Always apply the parking brake when
leaving the vehicle. Do not depend on
placing the transmission in P (Park) to
keep the vehicle from moving.
[ 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 may cause loss of vehicle control
resulting in an accident.[ Optimum vehicle performance
and fuel economy is obtained by
smoothly depressing and releasing the
accelerator.

Parking brake warning light
Check the Parking Brake
Warning Light by placing the
ignition switch to the ON
position (do not start the
engine).
This light will illuminate when the
parking brake is applied with the ignition
switch in the START or ON position.
Before driving, be sure the parking brake
is released and the Brake Warning Light
is OFF.
If the Parking Brake Warning Light
remains on after the parking brake is
released whilst the engine is running,
there may be a malfunction in the
brake system. Immediate attention is
necessary.
If at all possible, cease driving the
vehicle immediately. If that is not
possible, use extreme caution whilst
operating the vehicle and only continue
to drive the vehicle until you can reach a
safe location.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
An Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) or
an Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system will not prevent accidents
due to improper or dangerous driving
manoeuvres. Even though vehicle
control is improved during emergency
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 vehicles 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-covered
roads.
[ On roads where the road surface is
pitted or has different surface height.
[ Tyre 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.
ABS is an electronic braking system that
helps prevent a braking skid. ABS allows
the driver to steer and brake at the same
time.

Electronic Stability Control
(ESC)
OBC3N061006AU
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system helps to stabilize the vehicle
during cornering manoeuvres.
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
manoeuvres, and hydroplaning on wet
surfaces can result in severe accidents.

illuminates, then goes off if the ESC
system is operating normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks whenever
the ESC is operating.
If the 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 a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer as soon as possible.
The ESC OFF indicator light comes on
when the ESC is turned off with the
button.
WARNING
When the ESC is blinking, this indicates
the ESC is active:
Drive slowly and NEVER attempt to
accelerate. NEVER turn the ESC off
whilst the ESC indicator light is blinking
or you may lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
NOTICE
Driving with wheels and tyres with
different sizes may cause the ESC
system to malfunction. Before
replacing tyres, make sure all four tyres
and wheels are the same size. Never
drive the vehicle with different sized
wheels and tyres installed.

Multi-Collision Brake (MCB)
Multi-Collision Brake controls the brake
automatically in the event of an accident
where the air bag deploys to reduce the
risk of additional accidents that may
occur.
System operation
[ From the time the air bag deploys
Multi-Collision Brake monitors the
depression intensity of the brake
pedal and accelerator pedal for a short
period. The system operates when the
following conditions are met:
- The vehicle speed is under 112 mph
(180 km/h) at the time of collision.
- The brake pedal and accelerator
pedal is hardly depressed.
[ When the driver steps on the brake
pedal over a certain level whilst
Multi-Collision Brake is active, the
braking power takes priority over
automatic braking by Multi-Collision
Brake system. However, if the driver
takes his/her foot off the brake pedal,
automatic braking by Multi-Collision
Brake system will maintain automatic
braking.
System off
Multi-Collision Brake is cancelled in the
following situations:
- The accelerator pedal is depressed
over a certain level.
- The vehicle stops.
- There is malfunction of ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) or system cannot
operate normally.
- Ten seconds have passed since
the brake has been controlled
automatically by Multi-Collision Brake
system.
WARNING
[ Multi-Collision Brake decreases
the vehicle speed after a collision,
but it does not prevent the second
collision. You may drive away from
the collision spot to avoid other
dangerous situations by depressing
the accelerator pedal.
[ After the vehicle is stopped by Multi-
Collision Brake, the system stops
controlling the brakes. Depending
on the situation, the driver should
depress the brake or the accelerator
pedal to prevent further accidents.

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 tyre damage.
See “Towing” 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:

When installing tyre chains, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and mount
them as tightly possible. Drive slowly
(less than 20 mph (30 km/h)) with
chains installed. If you hear the chains
contacting the body or chassis, stop and
tighten them. If they still make contact,
slow down until the noise stops. Remove
the tyre chains as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away from
traffic. Turn on the vehicle Hazard
Warning Flasher and place a triangular
emergency warning device behind the
vehicle (if available). Always place the
vehicle in P (Park), apply the parking
brake and turn off the engine before
installing snow chains.
NOTICE
When using tyre chains:
[ Wrong size chains or improperly
installed chains can damage your
vehicle’s brake lines, suspension,
body and wheels.
[ Use SAE “S” class or wire chains.
[ If you hear noise caused by chains
contacting the body, retighten the
chain to prevent contact with the
vehicle body.
[ To prevent body damage, retighten
the chains after driving 0.3~0.6 miles
(0.5~1.0 km).
[ Do not use tyre chains on vehicles
equipped with aluminium wheels. If
unavoidable, use a wire type chain.
[ Use wire chains less than 0.47 in (12
mm) wide to prevent damage to the
chain’s connection.
Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because it
helps prevent corrosion in the cooling
system, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or
replenish your coolant in accordance
with the maintenance schedule. Before
winter, have your coolant tested to
assure that its freezing point is sufficient
for the temperatures anticipated during
the winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter temperatures affect battery
performance. Inspect the battery and
cables, as specified in the chapter
9. The battery charging level can be
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer or in a service station.
Change to “winter weight” oil if
necessary
In some regions during winter, it is
recommended to use the “winter
weight” oil with lower viscosity. For
further information, refer to the chapter
2. When you are not sure about a type
of winter weight oil, consult a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
