2015 Hyundai I40 Owners Manual

Features of your vehicle
Parking  brake  &  brake
fluid warning
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-diago-
nal braking systems. This means you still
have braking  on two wheels  even if one
of the dual systems should fail. With only
one of  the  dual systems  working, more
than  normal   pedal  travel   and  greater
pedal pressure  are required  to stop  the
car. Also, the car will not stop in  as short
a  distance  with   only  a  portion  of  the
brake system  working. If  the brakes  fail
while you are driving, shift to a lower gear
for additional engine braking and stop the
car as soon as it is safe  to do so.

Brake) malfunction indica-

EPB
Parking brake warning
The EPB malfunction indicator will illumi-
nate  when the  ignition  switch is  turned
ON, but should go  off after approximate-
ly 3 seconds. If the warning light does not
come on, or continuously remains on  we
recommend that the  system be checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
This  light  illuminates when  the  parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in
the START  or ON position. The  warning
light  should   go  off  when   the  parking
brake is released.
Low brake fluid level warning
Also, the EPB  malfunction indicator may
illuminate when the ESC indicator comes
on to indicate that the ESC is not working
properly,  but  if this  occurs,  it  does  not
indicate the EPB has malfunctioned.
If  the warning  light  remains  on,  it may
indicate that  the  brake fluid  level in  the
reservoir is low.
To check  bulb operation,  check whether
the parking brake and brake fluid warning
light illuminates  when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
If the warning light remains on:
Drive  carefully   to  the   nearest   safe
location and stop your vehicle.
