Trailer stability assist (TSA)
Trailer stability assist is operated as a
vehicle stability control system. The
Trailer stability assist system stabilizes
the vehicle and trailer when the trailer
sways or oscillates. There are various
reasons making vehicle sway and
oscillate. In most case it happens at high
speed however, if the trailer is affected
by crosswinds, buffeting, and improper
overloading, it may also be a risk of sway.
Factors of swaying such as:
- High speed
-Strong crosswinds
-Improper overloading
-Sudden controlling of steering wheel
-Uneven road
Trailer stability assist system
continuously analyzes the vehicle
and trailer instability. When the
Trailer stability assist system detects
some sway, the brakes are applied
automatically to stabilize the vehicle
on the front wheel. However, if it is
not enough to stabilize, the brakes are
applied on all wheels automatically and
engine power is properly reduced. When
the vehicle is stable from swaying, trailer
stability assist system does not operate.

ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (IF EQUIPPED)
Type A
ONX4060013
Type B
ONX4E060031
The All Wheel Drive (AWD) System
delivers engine power to all front and
rear wheels for maximum traction. AWD
is useful when extra traction is required
on roads such slippery, muddy, wet, or
snow-covered roads.
Occasional off-road use such as
established unpaved roads and trails are
OK. It is always important that the driver
carefully reduces the speed to a level
that does not exceed the safe operating
speed for those conditions.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY
or DEATH:
• Do not drive in conditions that
exceed the vehicles intended
design such as challenging off-road
conditions.
• 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 a 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.
NOTICE
• Do not drive in water if the level
is higher than the bottom of the
vehicle.
• Check your brake condition once
you are out of mud or water. Depress
the brake pedal several times as you
move slowly until you feel normal
braking return.
• Shorten your scheduled
maintenance interval if you drive in
off-road conditions such as sand,
mud or water (see "Maintenance
Under Severe Usage Conditions" in
chapter 7).
• Always wash your vehicle thoroughly
after off road use, especially the
bottom of the vehicle.
• Be sure to equip the vehicle with four
tires of the same size and type.
• Make sure that a full time AWD
vehicle is tow ed by a flat bed tow
truck.

Description
AWD AUTO (AWD
LOCK is
deactivated)
(not illuminated) •
AWD Auto is used when driving on
roads in normal conditions, roads in
urban areas, and on highways.
• All wheels are in operation when a
vehicle travels at a constant speed.
Required tractions applying on front
and rear wheels vary depending on
road driving conditions and driving
conditions, which will be automatically
controlled by the computing system.
• When the cluster's AWD Auto display
mode is selected, the cluster displays
the status of how four wheels’ traction
forces are distributed.
AWD LOCK
(illuminated)
• The main goal of AWD Lock mode is to
allow a driver to maximize the vehicle’s
traction under extreme driving
conditions such as unpaved off-road,
sandy roads, and muddy roads.
• AWD Lock mode is in operation only
when a vehicle travels at 60 km/h or
less. When traveling at 60 km/h or
faster, the mode will switch to AWD
Auto.
• When AWD Lock mode illuminates, the
cluster does not display the front/rear
wheel traction force distribution status.
• Press the AWD Lock mode switch
again to switch back to AWD Auto.

WINTER DRIVING
The severe weather conditions of winter
quickly wear out tires and cause other
problems. To minimize winter driving
problems, you should take the following
suggestions:
Snow or icy conditions
You need to keep sufficient distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you.
Apply the brakes gently. Speeding, rapid
acceleration, sudden brake applications,
and sharp turns are potentially
very hazardous practices. During
deceleration, use engine braking to the
fullest extent. Sudden brake applications
on snowy or icy roads may cause the
vehicle to skid.
To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it
may be necessary to use snow tires or to
install tire chains on your tires.
Always carry emergency equipment.
Some of the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or chains,
a flashlight, emergency flares, sand, a
shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper,
gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blanket,
etc.
Snow tires
WARNING
Snow tires should be equivalent in size
and type to the vehicle’s standard tires.
Otherwise, the safety and handling of
your vehicle may be adversely affected.
We recommend that you use snow tires
when road temperature is below 45°F
(7°C). Refer to the below chart, and
mount the recommended snow tire for
your vehicle.
If you mount snow tires on your vehicle,
make sure to use the same Inflation
pressure as the original tires. Mount
snow tires on all four wheels to balance
your vehicle’s handling in all weather
conditions. The traction provided by
snow tires on dry roads may not be as
high as your vehicle’s original equipment
tires. Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.

Tire chains
Type A
ONX4060020
Type B
ONX4080023
Since the sidewalls of radial tires are
thinner than other types of tires, they
may be damaged by mounting some
types of tire chains on them. Therefore,
the use of snow tires is recommended
instead of tire chains. If tire chains must
be used, use genuine HYUNDAI Parts
and install the tire chain after reviewing
the instructions provided with the tire
chains. Damage to your vehicle caused
by improper tire chain use is not covered
by your vehicle manufacturer’s warranty.
235/65R17Wire chain (Under
12mm thickness) or
Fabric-type chain
235/55R19 Fabric-type
When using tire chains, attach them to
the drive wheels as follows.
2WD : Front wheels
AWD : All four wheels
If a full set of chains is not
available for an AWD vehicle,
chains may be installed on the
front wheels only.
WARNING
The use of tire chains may adversely
affect vehicle handling:
• Drive less than 20 mph (30 km/h)
or the chain manufacturer’s
recommended speed limit,
whichever is lower.
• Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, sharp turns, and other road
hazards, which may cause the
vehicle to bounce.
• Avoid sharp turns or locked wheel
braking.
Information
• Install tire chains only in pairs and on
the front tires. It should be noted that
installing tire chains on the tires will
provide a greater driving force, but will
not prevent side skids.
• Do not install studded tires without
first checking local and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
