Good braking practices
Whenever leaving the vehicle or parking,
always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal. Shift
the gear to the P (Park) position, then
apply the EPB, and press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the OFF position.
Vehicles parked with the EPB not applied
or not fully engaged may roll
inadvertently and may cause injury to the
driver and others. ALWAYS apply the
parking brake before exiting the vehicle.
Wet brakes can be dangerous! The brakes
may get wet if the vehicle is driven
through standing water or if it is washed.
Your vehicle will not stop as quickly if the
brakes are wet. Wet brakes may cause the
vehicle to pull to one side.
To dry the brakes, apply the brakes
slightly until the braking action returns to
normal If the braking action does not
return to normal, stop as soon as it is safe
to do so. Have your vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
DO NOT drive with your foot resting on
the brake pedal. Even light, but constant
pedal pressure can result in the brakes
overheating, brake wear, and possibly
even brake failure.
If a tire goes flat while you are driving,
apply the brakes gently and keep the
vehicle pointed straight ahead while you
slow down. When you are moving slowly
enough for it to be safe to do so, pull off
the road and stop in a safe location.
Keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal
when the vehicle is stopped to prevent
the vehicle from rolling forward.
