TCS ON/OFF Mode
Indicators and Warning
Full-Time 4WD Operation (If installed)
In the TCS-ON mode, the TCS indicator light in
the instrument cluster will blink.
The indicators should illuminate when the igni-
tion key is turned to ON or START but should
go out after three seconds.
If the indicators do not illuminate, or the TCS or
TCS-OFF indicator does not go out after 3
seconds, have it checked by an authorized
dealer.
Engine power can be delivered to all front and
rear wheels for maximum power. Full-time 4WD
is useful when good traction is required, such
as, when driving on slippery, wet or snow-
covered roads and when moving out of mud.
These vehicles, however, are not designed for
challenging off-road use. Full-time 4WD ve-
hicles are designed primarily to improve traction
and performance on paved roads and high-
ways in wet and/or slippery conditions. Occa-
sional off-road use such as established un-
paved roads and trails is OK. It is always
important when traveling off-highway that the
driver carefully reduce their speed to a level that
does not exceed the safe operating speed for
those conditions. In general, off-road conditions
provide less traction and braking effectiveness
than on road conditions. These factors must be
carefully considered when driving off-road.
Keeping the vehicle in contact with the driving
surface and under control in these conditions is
always the driver's responsibility for the safety
of him/herself and his or her passengers.
If you turn the system off by pressing the TCS
switch, the TCS-OFF indicator light will come on
and stay on. In the TCS-OFF mode, the SLIP
control will be deactivated. Adjust you driving
accordingly. To turn the system back on, press
the switch again. The TCS-OFF indicator light
should go off.
Should there be any unusual conditions in the
device while driving, TCS-OFF indicator illumi-
nates as a warning.
If TCS-OFF indicator illuminates, pull your car
to a safe place and stop the engine.
Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS-
OFF indicator goes out.
NOTE:
1
) Turn off the engine. Then restart the
engine, and the TCS mode will automati-
cally turn ON.
2
) When the traction control system is op-
erating properly, you can feel a slight
pulsation in the vehicle. This is only the
effect of brake control and indicates
nothing unusual.
If the indicator remains lit even after the engine
has been started, have your car checked by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
3)
When the engine starts, a click is heard
from the engine compartment; however,
this is only the sound of traction control
being checked.
NOTE:
1) When TCS-OFF indicator illuminates,
traction control is automatically deacti-
vated for safety.
2) This warning function is not provided
when the driver selects the TCS-OFF
mode.
4
) When moving out of the mud or fresh
snow, pressing the accelerator pedal
may not cause the engine speed to in-
crease.
