DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI

Apply the parking brake only when the vehi-
cle is at rest.
WARNING:
C300A03Y-EAT
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS)
(Not all models)
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.
Since the power assistance provided by the
brake servo is derived from the engine,
coasting with the engine turned off or towing
of the vehicle with the engine turned off will
result in greatly increased pedal pressures
being required to stop the vehicle.
Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade with
the accelerator pedal. This can cause the
transaxle to overheat. Always use the brake
pedal or parking brake.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
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.
(Not all models)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed
to prevent wheel lock-up during sudden braking
or on hazardous road surfaces. The ABS con-
trol module monitors the wheel speed and con-
trols the pressure applied to each brake. Thus,
in emergency situations or on slick roads, ABS
will increase vehicle control during braking.
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:
During ABS operation, a slight pulsation
may be felt in the brake pedal when the
brakes are applied. Also, a noise may be
heard in the engine compartment while brak-
ing. These conditions are normal and indi-
cate that the anti-lock brake system is func-
tioning properly.
Driving hints
TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to
decelerate the car sufficiently before entering
curves.
