Emergency Stop Signal (Ess); Brake Assist System (Bas) - Hyundai Grand i10 NIOS Owner's Manual

Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)

The Emergency Stop Signal system
alerts the driver behind by blinking the
stop light when the vehicle is braked
rapidly and severely.
The system is activated when:
• The vehicle suddenly stops (vehicle
speed is over 55 km/h and the vehicle
deceleration at greater than 7 m/s
• The ABS is activating
When the vehicle speed is under 40
km/h and the ABS deactivates or the
sudden stop situation is over, the stop
light blinking will stop. Instead, the
hazard warning flasher will turn on
automatically.
The hazard warning flasher will turn off
when the vehicle speed is over 10 km/h
(6.2 mph) after the vehicle has stopped.
Also, it will turn off when the vehicle is
driven at low speed for some time. You
can turn it off manually by pushing the
hazard warning flasher switch.
CAUTION
The Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
system will not work if the hazard
warning flasher is already on.

Brake Assist System (BAS)

(if equipped)
The Brake Assistant System provides
additional pressure when the brake
pedal is momentarily and strongly
depressed in a situation sudden braking
is required whilst driving. The Brake
Assistant System reduces the time for

to enter and consequently reduces
the braking distance, by providing
additional pressure up to the point of
ABS intervention.

30 km/h (20 mph) and the ABS control
