2003 Hyundai Sonata Owners Manual

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI  2- 11
On slippery road  surfaces, the traction control
system  (TCS)  limits   the  drive  wheels  from
spinning  excessively, thus  helping the  car  to
accelerate.  It  also  provides sufficient  driving
force and steering performance as the car turns
at accelerated speeds. TCS has - SLIP control.
o
Driving  on rough,  gravel  or  snow-cov-
ered roads.
Driving with  tire  chains installed.
Driving on roads where the road surface
is pitted or  has different surface height.
!
Traction  control  is only  a  driving  aid;  all
normal precautions for driving in inclement
weather   and  on  slippery   road  surfaces
should  be observed.
WARNING:
o
o
During these conditions the vehicle 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.
SLIPControl
Limits the  drive  wheels from  spinning exces-
sively during starting  or while making acceler-
ated turns on slippery roads to avoid losing the
driving force of  the front wheels.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS)
(Ifinstalled)
NOTE:
!
1)
Turn  off  the  engine.  Then   restart  the
engine, and the TCS mode will automati-
cally turn  "ON".
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
unusual.
When the engine  starts, a click is heard
from the engine compartment; however,
this is only the sound of traction control
being  checked.
When  moving out  of  the mud  or  fresh
snow,  pressing   the  accelerator  pedal
may not  cause the  engine  speed to  in-
crease.
CAUTION:
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.

Just bought the 2003 Sonata on Craig's List and easily found a manual to assist with the "trial & error" method. Thanks.
