B260M01A-AATLow Fuel Level Warning Light
The low fuel level warning light comes on when
the fuel tank is approaching empty. When it comes on, you should add fuel as soon aspossible. Driving with the fuel level warning lighton or with the fuel level below "E" can cause theengine to misfire and damage the catalyticconverter.

Front Fog Indicator Light
Front fog indicator light comes on whenever the fog light switch is on.
B260J01S-EAT Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light should come on when the ignition is turned on, then go outwhen the engine is running. If the light stays onwhilst the engine is running, there is a malfunc-tion in the electrical charging system. If the lightcomes on whilst you are driving, stop, turn offthe engine and check under the bonnet. First,make certain the generator drive belt is inplace. If it is, check the tension of the belt.And then, have the system checked by yourHyundai dealer. CAUTION: If the drive belt (generator belt) is loose, broken, or missing whilst the vehicle is driv-ing, there may be a serious malfunction,engine could overheat because this belt alsodrives the water pump.
B260Q01HP-EAT Cruise Indicator Light (Not all models)
The cruise indicator light in the instrument clus-
ter is illuminated only when the vehicle cruising speed has been set using the control switch onthe steering wheel.
The indicator light does not illuminate when the
main cruise control switch is activated. Information on the use of cruise control may be
found on page 1-66.
The brake fluid level warning light indicates that
the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinderis low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming toDOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should beadded. After adding fluid, if no other trouble isfound, the car should be immediately and care-fully driven to a Hyundai dealer for inspection.If further trouble is experienced, the vehicleshould not be driven at all but taken to a dealerby a professional towing service or some othersafe method.
Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal
braking systems. This means you still havebraking on two wheels even if one of the dualsystems should fail. With only one of the dualsystems working, more than normal pedal traveland greater pedal pressure are required to stopthe car. Also, the car will not stop in as short adistance with only half of the brake systemworking. If the brakes fail whilst you are driving,shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak-ing and stop the car as soon as it is safe to doso.

The coolant is under pressureand could erupt and cause severe burns.Wait until the engine is cool before remov-ing the radiator cap. The needle on the coolant temperature gauge should stay in the normal range. If it movesacross the dial to "H" (Hot), pull over and stopas soon as possible and turn off the engine.Then open the bonnet and check the coolantlevel and the water pump drive belt. If yoususpect cooling system trouble, have your cool-ing system checked by Hyundai dealer as soonas possible.

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
Before you start the engine, you should always:
1. Look around the vehicle to be sure there are no flat tyres, puddles of oil or water or other indications of possible trouble.
2. After entering the car, check to be sure the parking brake is engaged.
3. Check that all windows, and lights are clean.
4. Check that the interior and exterior mirrors are clean and in position.
5. Check your seat, seatback and headrest to be sure they are in their proper positions.
6. Close all the doors.
7. Fasten your seat belt and be sure that all other occupants have fastened theirs.
8. Turn off all lights and accessories that are not needed.
9. When you turn the ignition switch to "ON" check that all appropriate warning lights are operating and that you have sufficient fuel.
10.Check the operation of warning lights and all bulbs when key is in the "ON" position. C030A01HP-EAT COMBINATION IGNITION SWITCH AND STEERING LOCK To Start the Engine
o If your Hyundai is equipped with a manual
transmission, place the shift lever in neutral and depress the clutch pedal fully.
o If your Hyundai has an automatic transmis- sion, place the shift lever in "P" (park).
o To start the engine, insert the ignition key and turn it to the "START" position. Releaseit as soon as the engine starts. Do not holdthe key in the "START" position for morethat 15 seconds.
NOTE: For safety, the engine will not start if the shift lever is not in "P" or "N" position(Automatic Transmission). SC050A1-E
KEY POSITIONS WARNING:
The engine must never be turned off and the key removed from the ignition key cylinderwhilst the vehicle is in motion since thesteering lock will operate and control of thevehicle will be lost.

DRIVING YOUR HYUNDAI
2- 4 low the engine to idle for 20 seconds or so before driving the vehicle. CAUTION: Do not leave the vehicle unattended whilst idling. Never allow the vehicle to idle orwarm up in a confined space (ie garage)longer than is necessary to move the vehi-cle into an open area.

STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Ensure that the transmission is in neutral and that the clutch pedal is held depressed (manual transmission) or the transmissionselector is at the "P" position (automatictransmission vehicle).
2. Turn the ignition key to and hold at the "Start" position until the engine starts. Whenthe engine has started, release the key.
NOTE: Do not operate the starter for more than 15
seconds continuously or continue to oper- ate the starter after the engine has started toavoid damaging the starter motor. If theengine makes a false start, allow it and thestarter motor to come to rest before at-tempting to start the engine again. Neverattempt to start the engine with the trans-mission in gear. Do not depress the accel-erator pedal whilst starting the engine. Al-

Starting Procedure
1. Insert key, and fasten the seat belt.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. If your Hyundai is equipped with a manual transmission, place the shift lever in neutral and depress the clutch pedal fully. If yourHyundai has an automatic transmission,place the shift lever in "P" (park).
4. On vehicles equipped with the diesel pre- heat indication lamp, turn the ignition key tothe "ON" position. The diesel-preheat indi-cation lamp will first illuminate in amber, andthen after a short time, the amber illumina-tion will go off, indicating that preheating iscompleted.C050B01HP

NOTE: If the engine were not started within 2 sec- onds after the preheating is completed, turnthe ignition key once more to the "LOCK"position during 10 seconds, and then to the"ON" position, in order to preheat again. WARNING: Be sure that the clutch is fully depressed when starting a manual tranmission vehicle.Otherwise there is the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the vehicle as a result ofthe forward or backward movement of thevehicle that will occur if the clutch is notdepressed when the vehicle is started.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "Start" position and release it when the engine starts.

3. Select the 4H mode.The 4WD LOW indicator light ( or ) will
be turned on to remind you that you are in the 4L mode.
CAUTION: Do not select 4WD (4H or 4L) mode on dry
paved roads. Especially on dry highway, never select the 4WD mode. Four-wheel driving on dry paved roads for a
long period will increase the fuel consump-tion with possible noise generation and ear-ly tyre wear. In addition, axle gear oil tem-perature increases with possible driving sys-tem part wear. D090E01HP-EAT
Driving Four-wheel drive safely
o The driving posture should be more upright; adjust the seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operation.
o Be sure to wear the seat belt.
o Drive carefully when off the road and avoid dangerous areas.
o 4WD has higher ground clearance and a narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off roadapplications. Specific design characteristicsgive them a higher centre of gravity thanordinary cars. An advantage of the higherground clearance is a better view of the roadallowing you to anticipate problems. Theyare not designed for cornering at the samespeeds as conventional 2-wheel drive vehi-cles any more than low-slung sports carsare designed to perform satisfactorily underoff-road conditions. If at all possible, avoidsharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As withother vehicles of this type, failure to operatethis vehicle correctly may result in loss ofcontrol or vehicle rollover.
o Do not grip the inside or spokes of the steering wheel when driving off-road. Thesteering wheel could jerk and injure yourhands. Always firmly hold the outer steeringwheel when you are driving off-road.
o Drive at lower speeds in strong crosswinds. Because of your vehicle’s high centre ofgravity, its stability will be affected in cross-winds. Slower speeds ensure better vehiclecontrol.
