Hyundai i30 (PD): Braking system / Emergency Stop Signal (ESS)
The Emergency Stop Signal system alerts the driver behind by blinking the stop lights, whilst sharply and severely braking.
The system is activated when:
- The vehicle suddenly stops. (The deceleration power exceeds 7 m/s2, and the driving speed exceeds 34 mph (55 km/h).)
- The ABS is activated and the driving speed exceeds 34 mph (55 km/h).
The hazard warning flasher automatically turns ON after blinking the stop lights:
- When the driving speed is under 40 km/h (25 mph),
- When the ABS is deactivated, and
- When the sudden braking situation is over. The hazard warning flasher turns OFF:
- When the vehicle drives at a low speed for a certain period of time. The driver can manually turn OFF the hazard warning flasher by pressing the button.
Information
The Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) system will not activate, when the hazard warning flashers are already on.
The Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC) helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when starting a vehicle from a stop on a hill. The system operates the brakes automatically for approximately 2 seconds and releases the brake after 2 seconds or when the accelerator pedal is depressed.
WARNING Whenever leaving the vehicle or parking, always come to a complete stop and continue to depress the brake pedal. Move the shift lever into the P (Park) position, then apply the parking brake, and place the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF position.
