Indicator light
✽ NOTICE
When ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the indicator light illuminates,
then goes off if the ESP system is oper-
ating normally.
After reconnecting or recharging a dis-
charged battery, the ESP OFF indicator
may illuminate. In this case, turn the
steering wheel 360 degrees to the left
and 360 degrees to the right while the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
Then, restart the engine after the igni-
tion is off. If the ESP OFF indicator does
not turn off, have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.
If ESP is turned off while ESP is
operating, the vehicle may slip out
of control.
The ESP indicator light blinks whenever
ESP is operating or illuminates when
ESP fails to operate.
✽
NOTICE
�
When operating the vehicle on a
dynamometer, ensure that the ESP is
turned off (ESP OFF light illuminat-
ed). If the ESP is left on, it may pre-
vent the vehicle speed from increas-
ing, and result in false diagnosis.
Turning the ESP off does not affect
ABS or brake system operation.
ESP OFF indicator light comes on when
the ESP is turned off with the button.
CAUTION
Driving with varying tire or wheel
sizes may cause the ESP system to
malfunction. When replacing tires,
make sure they are the same size as
your original tires.
