STEERING WHEEL Electric power steering The power steering uses a motor to assist you in steering the vehicle. If the engine is off or if the power steering sys- tem becomes inoperative, the vehicle may still be steered, but it will require increased steering effort. The motor driven power steering is con- trolled by a power steering control unit which senses the steering wheel torque, steering wheel position and vehicle speed to command the motor. The steering wheel becomes heavier as the vehicle’s speed increases and becomes lighter as the vehicle’s speed decreases for optimum steering control. Should you notice any change in the effort required to steer during normal vehicle operation, have the power steer- ing checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

28

Tilt steering/Telescope steering (if equipped) Tilt steering allows you to adjust the steering wheel before you drive. You can also raise the steering wheel to give your legs more room when you exit and enter the vehicle (if equipped).

The steering wheel should be positioned so that it is comfortable for you to drive, while permitting you to see the instru- ment panel warning lights and gauges.

WARNING

(cid:129) Never adjust the angle and height of steering wheel while driving. You may lose your steering con- trol and cause severe personal injury or accidents.

(cid:129) After adjusting, push the steering wheel both up and down to be certain it is locked in position.

✽✽ NOTICE The following symptoms may occur dur- ing normal vehicle operation: • The EPS warning light does not illu-

minate.

• The steering wheel becomes heavier after turning the ignition switch on. This happens as the system performs the EPS system diagnostics. When the diagnostics is completed, the steering wheel will return to its normal condi- tion.

• Click noise may be heard from the EPS relay after the ignition switch is turned to the ON or LOCK position.

• Motor noise may be heard when the vehicle is at a stop or at a low driving speed.

• If the Electric Power Steering System does not operate normally, the warn- ing light will illuminate on the instru- ment cluster. The steering wheel may become difficult to control or operate abnormally. Take your vehicle to an authorized HYUNDAI dealer and have the vehicle checked as soon as possible.

• When you operate the steering wheel in low temperature, abnormal noise could occur. If temperature rises, the noise will disappear. This is a normal condition.

OLM049033L To change the steering wheel angle, pull down the lock-release lever (1), adjust the steering wheel to the desired angle (2) and the desired position (if equipped) (3), then pull up the lock-release lever to lock the steering wheel in place. Be sure to adjust the steering wheel to the desired position before driving.
