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.

Under certain conditions such
as repeated launch on steep
grades, the clutch in the trans-
mission could overheat. When
the clutch is overheated, the
safe protection mode engages. If
the safe protection mode
engages, the gear position indi-
cator on the cluster blinks with a
chime sound. At this time, a
warning message will appear on
the LCD display and driving may
not be smooth.
