The EPB malfunction indicator may
illuminate when the ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) indicator comes on
to indicate that the ESC is not work-
ing properly, but it does not indicate a
malfunction of the EPB.
NOTICE
• If the EPB warning light is still
on, have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
• If the parking brake warning
light does not illuminate or
blinks even though the EPB
switch was pulled up, the EPB
may not be applied.
• If the parking brake warning
light blinks when the EPB warn-
ing light is on, press the switch,
then pull it up. Once more press
it back to its original position
and pull it back up. If the EPB
warning does not go off, have
the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Parking brake warning light
Check the
Brake Warning Light
by placing the POWER
button to the ON posi-
tion (do not start the
vehicle).
This light will be illuminated when the
parking brake is applied with the
POWER button in the START or ON
position.
Before driving, be sure the parking
brake is released and the Brake
Warning Light is OFF.
If the Parking Brake Warning Light
remains on after the parking brake is
released while while the vehicle is in
the ready ( ) mode, there may be
a malfunction in the brake system.
Immediate attention is necessary.
If at all possible, cease driving the
vehicle immediately. If that is not pos-
sible, use extreme caution while
operating the vehicle and only con-
tinue to drive the vehicle until you
can reach a safe location.
Emergency braking

pedal while driving, emergency brak-
ing is possible by pulling up and
holding the EPB switch. Braking is
possible only while you are holding
the EPB switch. However, braking
distance will be longer than normal.
WARNING
Do not operate the parking
brake while the vehicle is mov-
ing except in an emergency sit-
uation.
