Emergency braking
If there is a problem with the brake pedal
while driving, emergency braking is pos-
sible by pulling the EPB switch. Braking
is possible only when you pull the EPB
switch.
NOTICE
During emergency braking by the EPB,
the parking brake warning light will
illuminate to indicate that the system is
operating.
EPB emergency release
If the EPB does not release properly, do
as follows:
1. Shift the shift lever into P (Park).
2. Install the blocks to the wheels to pre-
vent the vehicle from rolling.
3. Open the trunk and remove the cover.
4. Remove the emergency release han-
dle from the tool case.
5. Remove the emergency release cable
cover.
6. Install the emergency release handle
into the threaded end of the emer-
gency release cable by turning it clock-
wise.
7. Pull up the handle until a sound is
heard and the EPB warning light
blinks.
8. After using the EPB emergency
release, the warning message will
come on. You should operate the EPB
switch for the vehicle to return to its
normal condition. If the vehicle does
not return to normal condition, take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the system
checked.
