■ ESC indicator light
■ ESC OFF indicator light
Indicator light
When ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the indicator light illuminates,
then goes off if the ESC system is oper-
ating normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks whenever
ESC is operating or illuminates when
ESC fails to operate.
ESC OFF indicator light comes on when
the ESC is turned off with the button.
CAUTION
Driving with varying tyre or wheel
sizes may cause the ESC system to
malfunction. When replacing tyres,
make sure they are the same size as
your original tyres.
WARNING
The Electronic Stability Control
system is only a driving aid; use
precautions for safe driving by
slowing down on curved, snowy, or
icy roads. Drive slowly and don't
attempt to accelerate whenever the
ESC indicator light is blinking, or
when the road surface is slippery.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
After reconnecting or recharging a dis-
charged battery, the ESC OFF indicator
may illuminate. In this case, turn the
steering wheel 360 degrees to the left
and 360 degrees to the right whilst the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
Then, restart the engine after the igni-
tion is off. If the ESC OFF indicator
does not turn off, we recommend that
the system be checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.

ESC OFF usage
When driving
• ESC should be turned on for daily driv-
ing whenever possible.
• To turn ESC off whilst driving, press
the ESC OFF button whilst driving on a
flat road surface.
WARNING
Never press ESC OFF button whilst
ESC is operating (ESC indicator
light blinks).
If ESC is turned off whilst ESC is
operating, the vehicle may slip out
of control.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
• When operating the vehicle on a
dynamometer, ensure that the ESC is
turned off (ESC OFF light illuminat-
ed). If the ESC is left on, it may pre-
vent the vehicle speed from increas-
ing, and result in false diagnosis.
• Turning the ESC off does not affect
ABS or brake system operation.
