The indicator in the instrument clus-
ter displays the shift lever position
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
The dual clutch transmission gives
the driving feel of a manual trans-
mission, yet provides the ease of a
fully automatic transmission. Unlike
a traditional automatic transmis-
sion, the gear shifting can be felt
(and heard) on the dual clutch
transmission
- Think of it as an automatically
shifting manual transmission.
- Shift into Drive range and get fully
automatic shifting, similar to a
conventional automatic transmis-
sion.
Dual clutch transmission adopts a
dry-type dual clutch, which is dif-
ferent from torque converter of
automatic transmission, and
shows better acceleration perform-
ance during driving. But, initial
launch might be little bit slower
than Automatic Transmission. Gear shifts are sometimes more
noticeable than a conventional
automatic transmission and a light
vibration during launching can be
felt as the transmission speed is
matched with the engine speed.
This is a normal condition of the
dual clutch transmission.
The dry-type clutch transfers
torque and provides a direct driv-
ing feeling which may feel different
from a conventional automatic
transmission with a torque convert-
er. This may be more noticeable
when starting from a stop or low
vehicle speed.
When rapidly accelerating at low
vehicle speed, the engine could
rev at high rpm depending on vehi-
cle drive condition.
For smooth launch uphill, press
down the accelerator pedal
smoothly depending on the current
conditions.
If you release your foot from the
accelerator pedal at low vehicle
speed, you may feel strong engine
brake, which is similar to manual
transmission.
Driving your vehicle
Do not use the engine brake
(shifting from a high gear to
lower gear) rapidly on slip-
pery roads. The vehicle may
slip causing an accident.
To avoid damage to your
transmission, do not try to
accelerate in R (Reverse) or
any forward gear position with
the brakes on.
When stopped on slope, do
not hold the vehicle with
accelerator pedal. Use the
service brake or the parking
brake.

The ESC OFF indicator light comes
on when the ESC is turned off with
the button.
Driving with tyres or wheels in
various sizes may fail the normal
operation of the ESC system.
Before replacing tyres, make sure
they are in the same size as oth-
ers. Never drive the vehicle, which
is installed with the tyres of differ-
ent diameters.ESC OFF usage
When Driving
The ESC OFF mode should only be
used briefly to help free the vehicle if
stuck in snow or mud by temporarily
stopping operation of the ESC to
maintain wheel torque.
If you need to turn the ESC off when
driving press the ESC OFF button
only when driving on a flat road sur-
face.To prevent damage to the trans-
mission:
Do not allow wheel(s) of one
axle to spin excessively whilst
the ESC, ABS, and parking brake
warning lights are displayed.
The repairs would not be cov-
ered by the vehicle warranty.
Reduce engine power and do
not spin the wheel(s) excessive-
ly whilst these lights are dis-
played.
When operating the vehicle on a
dynamometer, make sure the
ESC is turned off (ESC OFF light
illuminated).
Information
Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or standard brake system opera-
tion.

NOTICE
NOTICE
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.
WARNING

Driving your vehicle
When the ECO mode is activated:
The acceleration response may be
slightly reduced as the accelerator
pedal is depressed moderately.
The air conditioner performance
may be limited.
The shift pattern of the automatic
transmission or dual clutch trans-
mission may change.
The engine noise may get louder.
The above situations are normal
conditions when the ECO mode is
activated to improve fuel efficiency.Limitation of the ECO mode oper-
ation:
If the following conditions occur
whilst the ECO mode is operating,
the system operation is limited even
though there is no change in the
ECO indicator.
When the coolant temperature is
low:
The system will be limited until
engine performance becomes nor-
mal.
When driving up a hill:
The system will be limited to gain
power when driving uphill because
engine torque is restricted.
When using the automatic trans-
mission or dual clutch transmission
Sports mode:
The system will be limited accord-
ing to the shift location.
When the accelerator pedal is
deeply depressed for a few sec-
onds: The system will be limited,
judging that the driver wants to
speed up.
SPORT mode
SPORT mode manages
the driving dynamics by
automatically adjusting the
steering wheel, engine
and transmission system.
When the SPORT mode is select-
ed by pressing the DRIVE MODE
button, the SPORT indicator (yel-
low colour) will illuminate.
Restarting the engine in SPORT
mode resets the DRIVE mode to
COMFORT mode. Thus, when
necessary, reselect the SPORT
mode.
When the SPORT mode is activat-
ed:
- The RPM (revolutions per min-
utes) level is maintained over a
certain length of time, even after
releasing the accelerator.
- Up-shifting timing is delayed,
whilst accelerating.
Information
In SPORT mode, the fuel efficiency
may decrease.

Driving your vehicle
The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) sys-
tem with a camera at the front wind-
screen, helps detect lane markers
on the road, and assists the driver's
steering to help keep the vehicle
between lanes.
When the system detects the vehicle
straying from its lane, it alerts the
driver with a visual and audible warn-
ing, whilst applying a counter-steer-
ing torque, trying to prevent the vehi-
cle from moving out of its lane.

The Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
system is not a substitute for safe
driving practices, but a conven-
ience function. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to always be
aware of the surroundings and
steer the vehicle.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the Lane Keeping
Assist (LKA) system:
Do not steer the steering
wheel suddenly when the
steering wheel is being assist-
ed by the system.
LKA system helps to prevent
the driver from unintentionally
moving out of the lane by
assisting the driver's steering.
However, the driver should
not solely rely on the system
but always pay attention to
the steering wheel to stay in
the lane.
WARNING
The operation of the LKA sys-
tem can be cancelled or not
work properly according to
road conditions and sur-
roundings. Always be cau-
tious when driving.
Do not disassemble the LKA
system camera temporarily to
tint the window or attach any
type of coatings and acces-
sories. If you disassemble the
camera and assemble it again,
we recommend that you take
your vehicle to an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer and have the
system checked for calibra-
tion.
When you replace the wind-
screen glass, LKA system
camera or related parts of the
steering wheel, we recom-
mend that you take your vehi-
cle to an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked for calibration.

What to do in an emergency
13. Use the wheel nut wrench to
tighten the wheel nuts in the
order shown. Double-check each
wheel nut until they are tight.
After changing tyres, we recom-
mend that an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer tighten the
wheel nuts to their proper torque
as soon as possible.The wheel
nut should be tightened to
11~13 kgf.m (79~94 lbf.ft).If you have a tyre gauge, check the
tyre pressure (see "Tyres and
Wheels" in chapter 8 for tyre pres-
sure instructions.). If the pressure is
lower or higher than recommended,
drive slowly to the nearest service
station and adjust it to the recom-
mended pressure. Always reinstall
the valve cap after checking or
adjusting tyre pressure. If the cap is
not replaced, air may leak from the
tyre. If you lose a valve cap, buy
another and install it as soon as pos-
sible. After changing tyres, secure
the flat tyre and return the jack and
tools to their proper storage loca-
tions.
Check the tyre pressure as soon
as possible after installing a spare
tyre. Adjust it to the recommend-
ed pressure.If any of the equipment such as the
jack, wheel nuts, studs, or other
equipment is damaged or in poor
condition, do not attempt to change
the tyre and call for assistance.
NOTICE
OTL065007
Your vehicle has metric threads
on the studs and wheel nuts.
Make certain during tyre chang-
ing that the same nuts that were
removed are reinstalled. If you
have to replace your wheel nuts
make sure they have metric
threads to avoid damaging the
studs and ensure the wheel is
properly secured to the hub. We
recommend that you consult an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
CAUTION

What to do in an emergency
When the original tyre and wheel
are repaired and reinstalled on the
vehicle, the wheel nut torque must
be set correctly. The correct wheel
nut tightening torque is 11-13
kgf.m (79-94 lbf.ft).
NOTICE
To prevent damaging the com-
pact spare tyre and your vehi-
cle:
Drive slowly enough for the
road conditions to avoid all
hazards, such as a potholes
or debris.
Avoid driving over obstacles.
The compact spare tyre diam-
eter is smaller than the diame-
ter of a conventional tyre and
reduces the ground clearance
approximately 25 mm.
Do not use tyre chains on the
compact spare tyre. Because
of the smaller size, a tyre
chain will not fit properly.
Do not use the compact spare
tyre on any other wheels, nor
should standard tyres, snow
tyres, wheel covers or trim
rings be used with the com-
pact spare tyre.
CAUTION

It is permissible to add 3 psi to the standard tyre pressure specification if colder temperatures are expect-
ed soon. Tyres typically loose 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 7°C temperature drop. If extreme temperature varia-
tions are expected, recheck your tyre pressure as necessary to keep them properly inflated.
An air pressure generally decreases, as you drive up to a high-altitude area above sea level. Thus, if you
plan to drive a high-altitude area, check the tyre pressures in advance. If necessary, inflate them to a prop-
er level. (Air inflation per altitude : +10 kPa/1 km)
