Smooth Cornering; Driving At Night - Hyundai EQUUS 2016 Owner's Manual

Smooth cornering

Avoid braking or shifting a gear on a
corner, especially when a road sur-
face is wet. It is ideal to drive a cor-
ner by gently accelerating. When you
take this suggestion, the tire wear-
out will be minimized.

Driving at night

OVI055209N
Since night-time driving is more haz-
ardous than day-time driving, here
are some important tips to remem-
ber:
• Slow down a driving speed and
keep a longer safe distance from a
vehicle in front, as it may be hard-
er to see at night, especially in
areas without any street lights.
• Adjust your mirror angle to reduce
glares from the headlamps of other
vehicles.
• Keep your headlamps clean and
properly aimed at. Any foreign sub-
stances on a headlamp and an
improperly adjusted headlamp
angle make it much harder to see
at night. Turning the headlamp ON,
while operating windshield wipers,
is mandatory in some states.
• Avoid directly staring at the head-
lamps of approaching vehicles.
This may temporarily blind your
vision, and take several seconds
for your eyes to readjust in the
darkness.
