Hyundai i-30: Dual clutch transmission / DCT warning messages
This warning message is displayed
when vehicle is driven slowly on a
grade and the vehicle detects that
the brake pedal is not applied.
Steep grade
Driving up hills or on steep grades:
- To hold the vehicle on an incline
use the foot brake or the parking
brake.
- When in stop-and-go traffic on an
incline, allow a gap to form ahead
of you before moving the vehicle
forward. Then hold the vehicle on
the incline with the foot brake.
- If the vehicle is held or creeping
forward on an incline by applying
the accelerator pedal, the clutch
and transmission may overheat
which can result in damage. At this
time, a warning message will
appear on the LCD display.
- If the LCD warning is active, the
foot brake must be applied.
- Ignoring the warnings can lead to
damage to the transmission.
Transmission high temperature
- Under certain conditions, such as
repeated stop-and-go launches on
steep grades, sudden take off or
acceleration, or other harsh driving
conditions, the transmission clutch
temperatures will increase excessively.
- When the clutch temperatures are
too high, the "Transmission temp is
high! Stop safely" warning message
will appear on the LCD display,
a chime will sound, and the
transmission shifting may not be
smooth.
- If this occurs, pull over to a safe
location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
- If you ignore this warning, the driving
condition may become worse.
You may experience abrupt shifts,
frequent shifts, or jerkiness.
- When the message "Trans cooled.
Resume driving." appears you can
continue to drive your vehicle.
- When possible, drive the vehicle
smoothly.
Transmission overheated
- If the vehicle continues to be driven
and the clutch temperatures
reach the maximum temperature
limit, the "Trans Hot! Park with
engine on" warning will be displayed.
When this occurs the clutch
is disabled until the clutch cools to
normal temperatures.
- The warning will display a time to
wait for the transmission to cool.
- If this occurs, pull over to a safe
location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
- When the message "Trans cooled.
Resume driving." appears you can
continue to drive your vehicle.
- When possible, drive the vehicle
smoothly.
If any of the warning messages in
the LCD display continue to blink, for
your safety, we recommend that you
contact a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer and have the system
checked.
