Maintenance ▶
If the charge warning lamp ( ) on the instrument cluster comes on while driving, there is a malfunction
in the charge system including the battery. Therefore, carrying out the system check is needed.
Make sure that the battery cables are firmly connected.
If the terminals are corroded, clean them with a wire brush or sandpapers.
Always disconnect the battery cables with the ignition key removed. When disconnecting the battery
cables with the ignition key turned to ON or ACC position, several electric units can be damaged due
to sudden voltage change.
Check the battery for crack, damage or fluid leaks. Replace it if necessary.
Wipe out the battery fluid on the battery surface using a rubber glove and a clean cloth wetted with
soapy water. -

4) Recovery of Set Speed (RESUME)
Even if the cruise control is cancelled, the previous set cruise speed can be recovered by pulling up the
cruise control lever when the current vehicle speed is over 38 km/h without an acceleration intervention.
But if you turn off the ignition switch, the memorized set speed is cleared and you cannot recover the
previous set speed.
But the driver should know the previous set speed to react to the changed vehicle speed properly. If
the vehicle speed increases abruptly, depress the brake pedal to adjust the vehicle speed properly.

Do not move the shift lever to Neutral position while driving with the cruise control turned on.
Otherwise, it may result in system malfunction or accidents.
Always be prepared to use the brake or accelerator pedal for safe driving while the cruise control
system is running.
The actual speed can be different from the set speed momentarily when driving on a uphill or
downhill. So, it is recommended to disable the cruise control function on a uphill or downhill. hen
driving on a steep hill use the engine brake and foot brake properly to protect the vehicle system
and for a safe driving.
Ensure that the safe distance is maintained and use the brake pedal if needed. 1.

(1) Abnormal Cancellation of the Cruise Control
Sharp acceleration or deceleration
- 50 km/h faster than set speed
- 25 km/h faster than set speed for one minute
- 70 km/h slower than set speed
- 65 km/h slower than set speed for 3 minutes
When the cruise control lever is faulty.
When the brake switch and the brake light switch input signal are implausible. 1.

When the cruise control function is cancelled abnormally or intermittent problems occur, stop the vehicle
and turn off the ignition switch and remove the key to reset the system. After a while, turn on the ignition
switch again to operate the cruise control system.

3. ECU CONTROL
1) Functions
ECU receives and analyzes signals from various sensors and then modifies those signals into
permissible voltage levels and analyzes to control respective actuators.
ECU microprocessor calculates injection period and injection timing proper for engine piston speed and
crankshaft angle based on input data and stored specific map to control the engine power and emission
gas.
Output signal of the ECU microprocessor activates the injector solenoid valve to control the fuel injection
period and injection timing; so controls various actuators in response to engine changes.
Auxiliary function of ECU has adopted to reduce emission gas, improve fuel economy and enhance
safety, comforts and conveniences. For example, there are autocruise and immobilizer and adopted
CAN communication to exchange data among electrical systems (automatic T/M and brake system) in
the vehicle fluently. And the diagnostic tool can be used to diagnose vehicle status and defectives.

water and electromagnetism and there should be no mechanical shocks.
2) Control Functions
Controls by operating stages:
To make optimum combustion under every operating stage, ECU should calculate proper injection
volume in each stage by considering various factors.
Starting injection volume control:
During initial starting, injecting fuel volume will be calculated by function of temperature and engine
cranking speed. Starting injection continues from when the ignition switch is turned to ignition
position to till the engine reaches to allowable minimum speed.
Driving mode control:
If the vehicle runs normally, fuel injection volume will be calculated by accelerator pedal travel and
engine rpm and the drive map will be used to match the drivers inputs with optimum engine power. -

The ignition timing control can be performed faster than the control through the throttle valve.
Fuel cut-off in deceleration
The ignition timing is retarded temporarily to prevent abrupt increase of the torque when the
combustion is restarted.
Intake air temperature/coolant temperature
The ignition timing is retarded to prevent knocking if the intake air temperature or coolant temperature
is high. The ignition timing is retarded in the following cases. 3.

The intake air temperature is above 30°C.
The coolant temperature is above 105°C. -

The ignition timing retard for intake air temperature and for coolant temperature is added up for
correction.
ESP/ASR control mode
The ignition timing is retarded to reduce engine torque as fast as possible under the ESP/ASR
control mode.
Knocking control
If knocking occurs in the cylinder, the ignition angle of the corresponding cylinder is retarded. The
coolant temperature is 15˚C to 40˚C when starting. 6.
