When ESC SPORT mode is activated:
- ESC only improves driving stability
to a limited degree.
- Traction control is still activated,
but with less wheel control (more
slip).
- Engine torque can partially be limit-
ed for the vehicle's stability and the
driving wheel spin may be restrict-
ed for better traction.

Indicator lights
■ ESC indicator light (blinks)
■ ESC OFF indicator light (comes on)
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the ESC indicator light illu-
minates, then goes off if the ESC
system is operating normally.
The ESC indicator light blinks when-
ever the ESC is operating.
If the ESC indicator light stays on,
your vehicle may have a malfunction
with the ESC system. When this
warning light illuminates we recom-
mend that the vehicle be checked by
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer as
soon as possible.
