When driving downhill, you may
use Manual shift mode and press
the paddle shifters (except 1.6 T-
GDI engine) to downshift to a lower
gear in order to control your speed
without using the brake pedal
excessively.
When you turn the engine on and
off, you may hear clicking sounds
as the system goes through a self
test.This is a normal sound for the
Ecoshift dual clutch transmission.
To hold the vehicle on a hill use
the foot brake or the parking
brake. If the vehicle is held by
applying the accelerator pedal
on a hill the clutch and trans-
mission will be overheated
resulting in damage.
At this time, a warning message
will appear on the LCD display
and you may feel a vibration.

If the clutch becomes overheat-
ed by excessive use of the
clutch to hold on a hill, you may
notice a shudder feeling and a
blinking display on the instru-
ment cluster. When this occurs,
the clutch is disabled until the
clutch cools to normal tempera-
tures. If this occurs, pull over to
a safe location, shift into P
(Park) and apply the foot brake
for a few minutes.
If the LCD warning is active, the
foot brake must be applied.
Ignoring the warnings can lead
to damage to the transmission.
If the display continues to blink,
for your safety, contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and
have the system checked.
