Get Whilst driving -> Features of the Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) Guide for Hyundai Bayon SUV Second Generation (2021-2024)

Whilst driving

• As a result, gear shifts are sometimes

more noticeable than a conventional

automatic transmission and a light

vibration during launching can be felt

as the transmission speed is matched

with the engine speed. This is a nor-

mal condition of the Automated Man-

ual Transmission (AMT).

Automated Manual

Transmission (AMT) operation

The Automated Manual Transmission

(AMT) has five forward speeds and one

reverse speed.

The individual speeds are selected

automatically in the D (Drive) position.

• The dry-type clutch transfers torque

more directly and provides a direct

drive feeling which may feel different

from a conventional automatic trans-

mission with a torque converter. This

may be more noticeable when

launching the vehicle from a stop or

when travelling at low, stop-and-go

vehicle speeds.

• When rapidly accelerating at a low

vehicle speed, the engine rpm may

increase highly depending on the

vehicle’s driving condition.

• For a smooth launch uphill, depress

the accelerator pedal smoothly

depending on the current conditions.

• If you release your foot from the

accelerator pedal at low vehicle

speed, you may feel engine braking,

which is similar to manual transmis-

sion.

Features of the Automated

Manual Transmission (AMT)

• The Automated Manual Transmis-

sion (AMT) can be thought of as an

automatically shifting manual trans-

mission. It gives the driving feel of a

manual transmission.

• When D (Drive) is selected, the trans-

mission will automatically shift

through the gears similar to a con-

ventional automatic transmission.

Unlike a traditional automatic trans-

mission, the gear shifting can some-

times be felt and heard as the actua-

tors engage the clutches and the

gears are selected. When the gear is

shifting, you may sometimes hear

operating noise. This is normal and

does not indicate a problem with your

transmission.

• The Automated Manual Transmis-

sion (AMT) adopts a dry-type single

clutch, which is different from the

torque converter of the automatic

transmission. It shows better accel-

eration performance and increased

fuel efficiency whilst driving but initial

launch might be slightly slower than

the automatic transmission.

• When you turn the engine on and off,

you may hear clicking sounds as the

system goes through a self-test. This

is a normal sound for the Automated

Manual Transmission (AMT).

Automated Manual Transmission

(AMT) instruction label

• During the first 1,000 miles (1,500

km), you may feel that the vehicle

may not be smooth when accelerat-

ing at low speed. During this break-in

period, the shift quality and perfor-

mance of your new vehicle is continu-

ously optimized.

Information

Creeping function

Read and follow the instruction label

attached on the driver side’s sunvisor

before driving the vehicle.

The Creeping function helps the vehi-

cle to start smoothly. If you take your

foot off the brake pedal when the shift

lever is in R (Reverse), D (Drive) or M

(Manual) position, the vehicle will

start slowly without depressing the

accelerator pedal. To disable the func-

tion, depress the brake pedal or pull up

the parking brake lever.

The creeping function will not operate

when:

• The parking brake lever is engaged

with the shift lever in R (Reverse), D

(Drive) or M (Manual) position

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious injury

or death:

• After the vehicle has stopped,

always make sure the shift lever is

in N (Neutral), apply the parking

brake, and turn the engine off.

• ALWAYS check the surrounding

areas near your vehicle for people,

especially children, before shifting

a vehicle into D (Drive) or R

(Reverse).

• Do not use the N (Neutral) position

in place of the parking brake.

• Before leaving the driver’s seat,

always make sure the shift lever is

in the N (Neutral) position, then set

the parking brake, and place the

ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF

position. Unexpected and sudden

vehicle movement can occur if

these precautions are not fol-

lowed.

warning indicator

Press Brake

The engine cannot be started unless

the shift lever is N (Neutral) position

and brake pedal is depressed.

• Do not use engine braking (shift-

ing from a high gear to lower gear)

rapidly on slippery roads. The

vehicle may slip causing an acci-

dent.

warning light

Clutch Over Heated

The indicator in the instrument cluster

displays the shift lever position when

the ignition switch is in the ON position.

This warning light indicates that the

clutch is overheated. It appears for a

whilst when the ignition switch is turned

ON. The indicator light illuminates when

the Clutch’s estimated temperature ris-

es up to limited value.
