While Driving

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 for 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 ignition
switch is 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.
Contact an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
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, contact your HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
CAUTION
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 car 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. 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.

SPORT+ mode
63257
SPORT+ mode manages the
driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting the
steering effort, the engine
and transmission control
logic for enhanced driver
performance.
• When SPORT+ mode is selected by
using the DRIVE MODE switch, the
SPORT+ indicator will illuminate.
• Whenever the engine is restarted,
the Drive Mode will revert back to
NORMAL mode. If SPORT+ mode is
desired, re-select SPORT+ mode from
the DRIVE MODE switch.
• When SPORT+ mode is activated:
- The engine rpm will tend to remain raised over a certain length of time
even after releasing the accelerator
- Upshifts are delayed when accelerating
Information
In SPORT+ mode, the fuel efficiency may
decrease. SMART mode
60$57
SMART mode selects the
proper driving mode among
NORMAL and SPORT by
judging the driver’s driving
habits (i.e. Economic or
Aggressive (Sportive)) from
the brake pedal depression
or the steering wheel
operation.
• Toggle the DRIVE MODE button to
select SMART mode. When SMART
mode is selected, the indicator
illuminates on the instrument cluster.
• SMART mode automatically controls
the vehicle driving, such as gear
shifting patterns and engine torque,
in accordance with the driver’s driving habits.
Information
When you dynamically drive the vehicle
in SMART mode by abruptly decelerating
or sharply turning the driving mode
changes to SPORT mode. However, it may
adversely affect fuel economy.

While Driving
6-48
Various driving situations, which you may
encounter in SMART mode
• The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT, when
you abruptly accelerate the vehicle
or repetitively operate the steering
wheel (Your driving is categorized
to be sporty.). In this mode, your
vehicle drives in a lower gear for
abrupt accelerating/decelerating
and increases the engine brake
performance.
• You may still sense the engine
braking performance, even when
you release the accelerator pedal in
SMART SPORT mode. It is because
your vehicle remains in lower gear
over a certain period of time for next
acceleration. Thus, it is a normal
driving situation, not indicating any malfunction.
• The driving mode automatically
changes to SMART SPORT mode only
in harsh driving situations. In most
of the normal driving situations, the
driving mode sets to be in SMART NORMAL mode.
Limitation of SMART mode
The SMART mode may be limited in
following situations. (The OFF indicator
illuminates in those situations.) • The driver uses the paddle shifter
(manual shift mode) :
It deactivates SMART mode. The
vehicle drives, as the driver manually
changes gear with the paddle shifter.
• The cruise control is activated :
The cruise control system may
deactivate the SMART mode when
the vehicle is controlled by the set
speed of Smart Cruise Control system.
(SMART mode is not deactivated
just by activating the cruise control
system.)
• The transmission oil temperature is
either extremely low or extremely high :
The SMART mode can be active in
most of the normal driving situations.
However, an extremely high/ low
transmission oil temperature may
temporarily deactivate the SMART
mode, because the transmission
condition is out of normal operation condition.

off. If the warning light remains ON
when FCA is activated, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Warning Timing
• Selecting Warning Timing
The driver can select the initial
warning activation time from the
User Settings in the LCD display
or infotainment system display (if
equipped) by selecting ‘User Settings
→ Driver Assistance → Warning Timing
→ Normal/Late’.
The options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning includes the following: - Normal: When this option is selected, the

Even though, ‘Normal’ is selected if
the front vehicle suddenly stops the
initial warning activation time may not
seem fast. - Late:
When this option is selected, the initial
Forward Collision Warning is activated
later than normal. This setting reduces
the amount of distance between
the vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist (if
equipped) ahead before the initial
warning occurs.
Select ‘Late’ when traffic is light and
when driving speed is slow.
When you accelerate suddenly to the
vehicle ahead, the warning may seem
to activate earlier even if ‘Later’ is
selected.
Information
If you change the warning timing, the
warning timing of other systems may change.

WARNING
• The warning light on the side view
mirror will illuminate whenever a
vehicle is detected at the rear side by
the system.
To help avoid accidents, do not focus
only on the warning light and neglect
to see the surrounding of the vehicle.
• Drive safely even though the
vehicle is equipped with Blind-Spot
Collision-Avoidance Assist system.
Do not solely rely on the system
but check your surrounding before changing lanes or backing the
vehicle up.
• The system may not alert the driver
in some conditions so always check
your surroundings while driving.
CAUTION
• The driver should always use
extreme caution while operating
the vehicle, whether or not the
warning light on the side view mirror
illuminates or there is a warning alarm.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at
high volume may offset the Blind-
Spot Collision Warning system
warning sounds.
• The warning of Blind-Spot Collision-
Avoidance Assist system may not
sound while other system’s warning sounds. Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
system may apply braking power, when
an approaching vehicle is detected
within a certain distance next to or
behind your vehicle.
It gently applies braking power on the
wheel, which is located in the opposite
side of the possibly-colliding point. The
instrument cluster will inform the driver
of the system activation.
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist
system is automatically deactivated when:
- The vehicle drives a certain distance away
- The vehicle direction is changed against the possible-colliding point
- The steering wheel is abruptly moved
- The brake pedal is depressed
- After a certain period of time
The driver should drive the vehicle in the
middle of the vehicle lanes to keep the
system in the ready status.
When the vehicle drives too close to one
side of the vehicle lanes, the system may
not properly operate.
In addition, the system may not properly
control your vehicle in accordance with
driving situations. Thus, always pay close
attention to road situations.
