Steering Wheel; Mdps (Motor Driven Power Steering) - Hyundai Palisade 2024 Owner's Manual

Steering Wheel

MDPS (Motor Driven Power
Steering)
The system assists you with steering the
vehicle. If the vehicle is turned off or if the
power steering system becomes
inoperative, you may still steer the
vehicle, but it will require increased
steering effort.
Should you notice any change in the
effort required to steer during normal
vehicle operation, have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
CAUTION
If MDPS (Motor Driven Power Steering)
does not operate normally, the
warning light and the message 'Check
motor driven power steering' will
illuminate on the instrument cluster. You
may steer the vehicle, but it will require
increased steering efforts. Take your
vehicle to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
or to a service station and have the
system checked as soon as possible.
Information
The following symptoms may occur
during normal vehicle operation:
• The steering effort may be high
immediately after pressing the ignition
switch or Engine Start/Stop button to
the ON position.
This happens as the system performs
the MDPS system diagnostics. When
the diagnostics are completed, the
steering wheel effort will return to its
normal condition.
• When the battery voltage is low, you
might have to put more steering effort.
However, it is a temporary condition so
that it will return to normal condition
after charging the battery.
• A click noise may be heard from the
MDPS relay after the ignition switch or
Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON or
LOCK/OFF position.
• Motor noise may be heard when the
vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving
speed.
• When you operate the steering wheel in
low temperatures, abnormal noise may
occur. If the temperature rises, the
noise will disappear. This is a normal
condition.
• When an error is detected from MDPS,
the steering effort assist function will
not be activated in order to prevent
fatal accidents. Instrument cluster
warning lights may be on or the
steering effort may be high. If these
symptoms occur, drive the vehicle to a
safe area as soon as it is safe to do so.
Have the system checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
