Indicators and Warning
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.
When the TCS is operating,  the TCS indicator
in the instrument cluster will  blink.
The TCS indicators should illuminate when the
ignition 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   the  system  checked   by  an
authorized dealer.
If you turn the system off  by pressing the TCS
switch, the TCS-OFF indicator will come on and
stay on. In the TCS-OFF mode, the SLIP control
will be deactivated. Adjust  you driving accord-
ingly. To  turn  the system  back on,  press the
switch again. The TCS-OFF indicator should go
off.
Drivinghints
TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to
decelerate the  car sufficiently  before entering
curves.
Should there be any  unusual conditions in the
TCS system while  driving, TCS-OFF indicator
illuminates 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)
The  TCS   mode  will  automatically   be
turned  "ON" after  the engine  is  turned
off  and restarted.
When  the   traction  control   system   is
operating properly, you can feel a  slight
pulsation in the vehicle. This  is only the
effect  of  brake   control  and  indicates
nothing  unusual.
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.
2)
If the indicator remains lit even after the engine
has been started, have your car checked by an
authorized Hyundai  dealer.
3)
4)
When the  engine starts,  a click may  be
heard  from   the  engine  compartment;
this is  the sound of the  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 due  to TCS  operation.
NOTE:
1)  When the TCS-OFF indicator illuminates,
traction control  is automatically  deacti-
vated .
2)  This  warning  function  is  not provided
when  the  driver  selects   the  TCS-OFF
mode.
!
WARNING:
Traction  control  is only  a  driving  aid;  all
normal  precautions for  driving  in  inclem-
ent  weather  and  on slippery  driving  sur-
faces should  be  observed.
