DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
WARNING:
C300A03Y-EAT
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS)
(Not all models)
CAUTION:
ABS will not prevent accidents due to im-
proper or dangerous driving manoeuvres.
Even though vehicle control is improved
during emergency braking, always maintain
a safe distance between you and objects
ahead. Vehicle speeds should always be
reduced during extreme road conditions.
The braking distance for cars equipped with
an anti-lock braking system may be longer
than for those without it in the following
road conditions.
When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP control
has been activated. It also means that the
road is slippery or your car is accelerating
excessively. In this situation, release foot
pressure from the accelerator pedal and
maintain moderate speed.
WARNING:
Traction control is only a driving aid; all
normal precautions for driving in inclement
weather and on slippery road surfaces
should be observed.
o
Driving on rough, gravel or snow-cov-
ered roads.
HGK156A-D
C300B01GK-GAT
o
o
Driving with tire chains installed.
Driving on roads where the road surface
is pitted or has different surface height.
TCS ON/OFF Mode
On slippery road surfaces, the traction control
system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from spin-
ning excessively, thus helping the car to accel-
erate. It also provides sufficient driving force
and steering performance as the car turns at
accelerated speeds.
In the TCS ON mode, the indicator in the
instrument cluster will not be illuminated.
To switch the TCS OFF mode, press the TCS
switch . To switch the TCS mode, press the
TCS switch again. In the TCS OFF mode, the
SLIP control will be deactivated and the TCS-
OFF indicator in the instrument cluster will be
illuminated.
These roads should be driven at reduced
speeds. The safety features of an ABS
equipped vehicle should not be tested by
high speed driving or cornering. This could
endanger the safety of yourself or others.
SLIP Control
Limits the drive wheels from spinning exces-
sively during starting or while making accelerat-
ed turns on slippery roads to avoid losing the
driving force of the front wheels.
NOTE:
1)
Turn off the engine. Then restart the
engine, and the TCS mode will automati-
cally turn ON.
Driving hints
2)
When the traction control is operating
properly, you can feel a slight pulsation
in the vehicle. This is only the effect of
brake control and indicates nothing un-
usual.
TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to
decelerate the car sufficiently before entering
curves.
