Releasing the parking brake
To release the parking brake, first apply
the foot brake and pull up the parking
brake lever slightly. Secondly press the
release button (1) and lower the parking
brake lever (2) while holding the button.
If the parking brake does not release or
does not release all the way, have the
system checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
Driving with the parking brake
applied will cause excessive
brake pad and brake rotor wear.
Do not operate the parking brake
while the vehicle is moving except
in an emergency situation, it could
damage the vehicle system.WARNING
To prevent unintentional move-
ment when stopped and leaving
the vehicle, do not use the
gearshift lever in place of the park-
ing brake. Set the parking brake
AND make sure the gearshift lever
is securely positioned in 1st (First)
gear or R (Reverse) for manual
transaxle equipped vehicles and in
P (Park) for Automatic transaxle /
EcoShift dual clutch transmission
equipped vehicles.
Never allow anyone who is unfa-
miliar with the vehicle to touch
the parking brake. If the parking
brake is released unintentionally,
serious injury may occur.
All vehicles should always have
the parking brake fully engaged
when parking to avoid inadver-
tent movement of the vehicle
which can injure occupants or
pedestrians.
