OIL PRESSURE WARNING LAMP
CAUTION: If the oil pressure lamp illuminates when the engine is running, an insufficient oil pressure level for continued safe operation of the en- gine exists. Continued operation of the en- gine in this condition may result in serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the lamp will illu- minate when the ignition is turned "on" and will be extinguished when the engine is started. If the oil pressure warning lamp illuminates whilst the engine is running, stop the engine immedi- ately and check the engine oil level. If the level is insufficient, add the required amount of oil as indicated by the engine oil dipstick. If the lamp fails to extinguish when the engine is restarted, do not continue to operate the vehicle. If the oil pressure lamp illuminates during normal operation and the cause is not an insufficient oil level, or the lamp fails to illuminate when the ignition is turned "on", contact the nearest Hyundai dealer before further operating the vehicle.

C300D01GK-GAT Indicator and WarningThe indicator should illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to ON
or START but should
go out after three seconds. If the indicator does not illuminate, or the TCS indicator does not go out after 3 seconds, have it checked by an authorized dealer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device, TCS-OFF either illuminates or blinks as a warning. If TCS-OFF illuminates or blinks, pull your carto a safe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS-OFF indicator goes out. If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your car checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer. NOTE:
1) When TCS-OFF illuminates or blinks, trac- tion control is automatically deactivatedfor safety.
3) When the engine starts, a click is heard
from the engine compartment; however, this is only the sound of traction control being checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelerator pedal maynot cause the engine speed to increase. 2) This warning function is not provided
when the driver choose the TCS-OFF mode. o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated
to the recommended pressure. Incorrect infla-tion, either too much or too little, results in unnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres- sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned cor-
rectly. Improper alignment can result fromhitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces. Poor alignment causes faster tire wear and may also result in other problems as well as greater fuel consumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For better
fuel economy and reduced maintenance costs, maintain your car in accordance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. If you drive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is required (see Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your car should be kept clean and free ofcorrosive materials. It is especially impor- tant that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate on the underside of the car. This extra weight can result in increased fuel consumption and also contribute to corro- sion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weight in your car. Weight is an enemy of good fueleconomy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than neces- sary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic),turn off your engine and restart only when you're ready to go.
SC150A1-F DRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou can save fuel and get more miles from your car if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate
rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full- throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruising speed. Don't race between stoplights. Try to adjust your speed to that of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unnec- essarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible. Al-ways maintain a safe distance from other vehicles so you can avoid unnecessary brak- ing. This also reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving ata moderate speed, especially on the high- way, is one of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This
can increase fuel consumption and also increase wear on these components. In ad- dition, driving with your foot resting on the brake pedal may cause the brakes to over- heat, which reduces their effectiveness and may lead to more serious consequences.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3-2 4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is
missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfac- tory, check for coolant leaking from the radia- tor, hoses or under the car. (If the air condi- tioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to be draining from it).
WARNING: Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine imme- diately and call the nearest Hyundai dealer for assistance.
WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected from the radiator resulting in burns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully remove the radiator cap and add water to bring the fluid level in the reser- voir up to the base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the coolant expansion tank to the halfway mark.
WARNING: Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric acid and emit hydrogen gas. Protective clothing should be worn and care exercised to prevent the acid from coming into contact with skin or clothing and the vehicle. Naked lights should not be permitted in the vicinity of the battery. Care should be exercised to prevent sparks occurring during connection. If acid acciden- tally comes into contact with skin or eyes, the affected area should immediately be flushed with copious amounts of water and medical assistance sought.
1. Ensure that the booster battery is 12 volt type.
If the booster battery is installed in another vehicle, ensure that the two vehicles are not touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equipment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the vehicle provid- ing the jump start is running prior to connec- tion of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery and the other end to the positive (+) terminal of the dis- charged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the negative
(-) terminal of the booster battery, and the other end to a ground point within the engine compartment of the vehicle with the flat bat- tery. Do not connect to the negative battery terminal of the flat battery since sparks may be generated with the subsequent risk of explosion. 6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to
2,000 r.p.m. and start the engine of the vehi- cle with the flat battery.
7. Remove jump cables in the reverse order of installation (black cable first).
CAUTION: If the jump cable is incorrectly installed, dam- age to the vehicle electrical system may oc- cur, in particular the electronic components such as the Fuel Injection system computer and the Automatic Transmission computer. The battery must never be disconnected whilst the engine is running. SD040A1-E IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATSIf the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from under the bonnet stop the engine. Do not open the bonnet until the cool-ant has stopped running or the steam- ing has stopped. If there is no visible loss of coolant and no steam, leave the engine run- ning and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
