The Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) is a function of the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. It helps ensure the vehicle stays stable when accelerating or braking suddenly on wet, slippery and rough roads where traction over the four tires can suddenly become uneven.
WARNING
Take the following precautions when using the Vehicle Stability Management (VSM):
VSM operation
VSM ON condition
The VSM operates when:
✱The two surface road is made of surfaces which have different friction forces.
When operating
When you apply your brakes under conditions which may activate the ESC, you may hear sounds from the brakes, or feel a corresponding sensation in the brake pedal. This is normal and it means your VSM is active.
Information
The VSM does not operate when:
Driving with wheels and tires with different sizes may cause the ESC system to malfunction. Before replacing tires, make sure all four tires and wheels are the same size. Never drive the vehicle with different sized tires and wheels installed.
WARNING
If ESC indicator light () or
EPS warning light (
) stays on
or blinks, your vehicle may have
a malfunction with the VSM system.
When the warning light illuminates,
have your vehicle
checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
To lock your vehicle using the door handle button or the Smart Key:
1.Make sure all doors, the hood and the liftgate are closed.
2.Make sure you have the smart key in your possession.
