EPB malfunction warning light
This warning light illuminates if
the START/STOP button is set to
the ON position and goes off in
approximately 3 seconds if the
system is operating normally.
If the EPB malfunction warning light
remains on, comes on while driving,
or does not come on when the START/
STOP button is set to the ON position,
this indicates that the EPB may have malfunctioned.
If this occurs, we recommend that
you have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
The EPB malfunction warning light may
illuminate when the ESC indicator comes
on to indicate that ESC is not working
properly, but it does not indicate a
malfunction of EPB.
NOTICE
• If the EPB warning light is still on,
we recommend that you have the
system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• If the parking brake warning light
does not illuminate or blinks even
though the EPB switch was pulled
up, EPB may not be applied.
• If the parking brake warning light
blinks when the EPB warning light is
on, press the switch, and then pull
it up. Repeat this one more time.
If the EPB warning does not go off,
we recommend that you have the
system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer. Parking brake warning light

START/STOP button to the ON position (
indicator off).
This light will be illuminated when the
parking brake is applied with the START/
STOP button 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 while the vehicle is in the ready (
) mode, 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 while operating
the vehicle and only continue to drive
the vehicle until you can reach a safe

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
WARNING
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) or
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) will
not prevent accidents due to improper
or dangerous driving maneuvers. 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.
• Tire chains are installed on your
vehicle. Drive your vehicle at
reduced speeds during the above
conditions.
The safety features of 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 to prevent a braking skid. ABS
allows the driver to steer and brake at the same time. Using ABS
To obtain the maximum benefit from
your ABS in an emergency situation,
do not attempt to modulate your brake
pressure and do not try to pump your
brakes. Depress your brake pedal as hard as possible.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in the
brake pedal. This is normal and it means
your ABS is active.
ABS does not reduce the time or distance
it takes to stop the vehicle.
Always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you.
ABS will not prevent a skid that results
from sudden changes in direction, such
as trying to take a corner too fast or
making a sudden lane change. Always
drive at a safe speed depending on the
road and weather conditions.
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stability.
Always steer moderately when braking
hard. Severe or sharp steering wheel
movement can still cause your vehicle to
veer into oncoming traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake system
may result in a longer stopping distance
than for vehicles equipped with a
conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light (
) will stay on
for several seconds after the START/
STOP button is placed in the ON position.
During that time, the ABS will go through
self-diagnosis and the light will go off
if everything is normal. If the light stays
on, you may have a problem with your
ABS. We recommend that you contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.

Driving your vehicle
6-32
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, ABS will
be active continuously and the ABS
warning light (
) may illuminate.
Pull your vehicle over to a safe place
and turn the vehicle off.
Restart the vehicle. 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.
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)
OOSEV058021
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
electric vehicle control 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.

ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the START/STOP button is in the ON position, ESC and the ESC
OFF indicator lights illuminate for
approximately three seconds and goes
off, then ESC is turned on.
When operating
When ESC is in operation, the
ESC indicator light blinks:
• When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the wheels,
you may hear sounds from the brakes,
or feel a corresponding sensation in
the brake pedal. This is normal and it
means your ESC is active.
• When ESC activates, the vehicle may
not respond to the accelerator as it
does under routine conditions.
• If Cruise Control was in use when ESC
activates, Cruise Control automatically
disengages. Cruise Control can be
reengaged when the road conditions
allow. See “Cruise Control System”
later in this chapter 7. (if equipped)
ESC OFF condition
To cancel ESC operation:
• State 1
OIK057082L
Press the ESC OFF button briefly. The
ESC OFF indicator light and message
“Traction Control disabled” will
illuminate. In this state, the traction
control function of ESC is disabled,
but the brake control function of ESC
(braking management) still operates.
