This light illuminates when there is a malfunc- tion of an exhaust gas related component, andthe system is not functioning properly so thatthe exhaust gas regulation values are not sat-isfied. This light will illuminate when the ignitionkey is tuned to the "ON" position, and will go outafter the engine start. If it illuminates whiledriving, or does not illuminate when the ignitionkey is turned to the "ON" position, take your carto your nearest authorized Hyundai dealer andhave the system checked.
B260C02E-GAT Traction Control Indicator Light (If Installed)
The traction control indicator changes opera- tion according to the ignition switch positionand whether or not the system is in operation.It will also illuminate when the ignition key isturned to the "ON" position, and then go off in afew seconds. If the TCS indicator stays on,take your car to your authorized Hyundai dealerand have the system checked. See section 2for more information about the TCS system.
B270A01A-AAT BRAKE PAD WEAR WARNING SOUND The front disc brake pads have wear indicators
that should make a high-pitched squealing orscraping noise when new pads are needed.
The sound may come and go or be heard all thetime when the vehicle is moving. It may also beheard when the brake pedal is pushed down
firmly. Excessive rotor damage will result if theworn pads are not replaced. See your Hyundaidealer immediately.
B260S01B-GAT
Diesel Pre-heat Indicator Light-Amber (Diesel Engine)
The indicator light illuminates amber when the
ignition switch is placed at the "ON" position. The engine can be started after the pre-heatindicator light goes off. The illuminating timevaries with the water temperature, air tem-perature and battery condition.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 2 6SB035A1-FE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM The immobilizer system is an anti-theft de- vice, designed to prevent and deter automo-bile theft. B880B03A-GAT Keys All of the locks fitted to the vehicle are oper- ated by the same key. However, since it ispossible to lock the doors without the use ofthe key, care should be exercised to ensurethat the key does not become locked insidethe vehicle by mistake. NOTE: If you make your own duplicate key, you will not be able to cancel the system orstart the engine.
B020A01FC-EAT RUNNING IN (Gasoline Engine) The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercisedduring the first 1,000 miles of motoring. Be-cause of modern manufacturing techniques,rigid guidelines regarding maximum roadspeeds have become unnecessary. However,certain precautions should be observed inorder to obtain the best possible performanceand useful life from the vehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load
(i.e revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maximum engine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components of the engine willbecome more quickly run in if the operationspeed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maximum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles ofmotorway driving to allow the friction fac-ings of the brake pads and shoes to bedagainst the discs and drums properly.
7) Avoid trailer towing during the running in period.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTSB210S1-E BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR The front brake disc pads are fitted with an audible wear indicator which will cause a highpitched noise to be emitted when the remain-ing amount of friction lining is below the speci-fied value. When the wear indicator is heard,the brake pads should be replaced withoutdelay to avoid damage occurring to the brakediscs and a severe reduction in braking effi-ciency.

TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR LIGHT(Not all models)
The traction control indicator changes opera- tion according to the ignition switch positionand whether or not the system is in operation. It will also illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, and then go off ina few seconds. If the TCS indicator stays on,take your car to your authorized Hyundaidealer and have the system checked. Seesection 2 for more information about the TCSsystem.
B270B02O-EAT
PARKING START WARNING SOUND (Not all models)
If the vehicle is driven at 6mph(10km/h) for
more than 2~3 seconds, the warning chime will sound continuously when the parking brake engaged.
B900A01A-EAT ACOUSTIC WARNING SOUND (Not all models) The acoustic warning chime sounds when the tail lights are on and the door in driver side isopen. This prevents the battery from dis-charging when the car is left with the tail lightson. The chime sounds until the tail lights areturned off.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI 2- 9
SC130A1-E
OVERDRIVE SWITCH
The overdrive switch prevents the transaxle
upshifting higher than third gear when the switch is turned "OFF". The transaxle will startfrom rest in first gear and upshift to secondand third gear depending upon the roadspeedand throttle opening but will not upshift tofourth gear. When the overdrive switch isturned "ON", the transaxle will start from restin first gear and will upshift, depending uponroadspeed and throttle opening to second,third and fourth gear. Therefore, when theoverdrive switch is turned "OFF", the transaxleperforms as a three speed unit and the over-drive warning light located in the instrumentcluster will be illuminated. When the overdriveswitch is turned "ON", the transaxle functionsas a fully automatic four speed unit with themaximum fuel economy potential of the ve-hicle being realized. o Do not hold the vehicle on the upgrade
with the accelerator pedal. This can causethe transmission to overheat. Always usethe brake pedal or parking brake.
SC140A1-E EFFECTIVE BRAKING Braking system performance and friction ma- terial life are greatly affected by the drivingstyle adopted. The following suggestions aremade to assist in achieving the best resultsfrom the braking system.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead
in order that heavy braking may be avoided.
o When descending long gradients, use the engine to assist in retarding the vehicle to minimize the possibility of brake fade oc-curring.
o When trailer towing, ensure that the trailer brakes function correctly and use enginebraking to assist the vehicle braking system.
o Use only genuine Hyundai replacement brake pads and shoes to ensure consis-tent friction characteristics and wear rates.
o After driving through deep water (e.g. fording), the brakes may become wet andperformance reduced. Always check brakeefficiency after emerging from the waterand dry the brakes by lightly depressingthe brake pedal several times whilst driv-ing slowly.
o Apply the parking brake only when the vehicle is at rest.
o Since the power assistance provided by the brake servo is derived from the engine,coasting with the engine turned off or tow-ing of the vehicle with the engine turned offwill result in greatly increased pedal pres-sures being required to stop the vehicle. SC140B1-E
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (Not all models)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is de-
signed to prevent wheel lock-up during sud- den braking or on hazardous road surfaces.The ABS control module monitors the wheelspeed and controls the pressure applied toeach brake. Thus, in emergency situations oron slick roads, ABS will increase vehicle con-trol during braking.
NOTE: During ABS operation, a slight pulsation
may be felt in the brake pedal when the brakes are applied. Also, a noise may beheard in the engine compartment whilstbraking. These conditions are normal andindicate that the anti-lock brake system isfunctioning properly.
WARNING:ABS will not prevent accidents due to im-
proper or dangerous driving maneuvers.Even though vehicle control is improvedduring emergency braking, always maintaina safe distance between you and objectsahead. Vehicle speeds should always bereduced during extreme road conditions.
