Hyundai Elantra: Electronic Stability Control (ESC) / ESC OFF usage

To turn ESC off while driving, press the ESC OFF button while driving on a flat road surface.

  • Do not allow wheel(s) of one axle to spin excessively while the ESC, ABS, and parking brake warning lights are displayed. The repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty. Reduce engine power and do not spin the wheel(s) excessively while these lights are displayed.
