!
C300D02O-AAT
Indicator and Warning
The indicator should illuminate when the ignition
key is turned to ON or START but should go out
after three seconds.
If the indicator does not illuminate, have it checked
by an authorized dealer.
Should there be any unusual conditions in the
device while driving, TCS illuminates as a warn-
ing.
If TCS illuminates, pull your car to a safe place
and stop the engine. Then, start the engine
again to check if the TCS indicator goes out.
If the indicator remains lit even after the engine
has been started, have your car checked by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
NOTE:
When TCS indicator illuminates, traction
control is automatically deactivated for
safety.

FULL TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
(FTCS) (3.5 L only) (If installed)
On slippery road surfaces, the traction control
system (TCS) limits the drive wheels from
spinning excessively, thus helping the car to
accelerate. It also provides sufficient driving
force and steering performance as the car turns
at accelerated speeds.
HSM434
SLIP Control
Limits the drive wheels from spinning exces-
sively during starting or while making acceler-
ated turns on slippery roads to avoid losing the
driving force of the front wheels.
Driving hints
TCS does not actively apply brakes. Be sure to
decelerate the car sufficiently before entering
curves.
CAUTION:
When the TCS indicator blinks, SLIP control
has been activated. It also means that the
road is slippery or your car is accelerating
excessively. In this situation, release foot
pressure from the accelerator pedal and
maintain moderate speed.
WARNING:
Traction control is only a driving aid; all
normal precautions for driving in inclement
weather and on slippery road surfaces
should be observed.
