DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
15
!
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, gently release foot
pressure from the accelerator pedal
and maintain moderate speed.
WARNING:
Traction control is only a driving
aid; all normal precautions for driv-
ing in inclement weather and on
slippery driving surfaces should be
observed.

Indicator and Warning
The TCS indicator should illuminate
when the ignition key is turned to "ON"
or "START", but should go out after
three seconds.
If the indicator does not illuminate,
have it checked by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
Should there be any unusual condi-
tions in the device, TCS illuminates as
a warning.
If TCS illuminates, pull your car to a
safe place and stop the engine.
Then, start the engine again to check
if the TCS indicator goes out.
If the indicator remains lit even after
the engine has been started, have
your car checked by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
NOTE:
When the TCS indicator illuminates,
traction control is automatically de-
activated for safety.

TCS ON Mode
In the TCS ON mode, the indicator in
the instrument cluster will not be illumi-
nated.
NOTE:
1) Turn off the engine. Then restart
the engine, and the TCS mode
will automatically turn "ON".
2) When the traction control is op-
erating properly, you can feel a
slight pulsation in the vehicle.
This is only the effect of brake
control and indicates nothing
unusual.
3) When the engine starts, a click is
heard from the engine compart-
ment; however, this is only the
sound of traction control being
checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or
fresh snow, pressing the accel-
erator pedal may not cause the
engine speed to increase.
