B290A03A-AATENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
WARNING:Never remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. The engine coolant is under
pressure and could erupt and cause
severe burns. Wait until the engine is
cool before adding coolant to the
reservoir.The normal range is approximately in the
middle between "H" and "C". If it moves
across the dial to "H" (HOT), pull over and
stop as soon as possible and turn off the
engine. Then open the hood and, after the
engine has cooled, check the coolant level
(See "If the engine overheats" on the page
3-4.) and the water pump drive belt. If you
suspect cooling system trouble, have your
cooling system checked by a Hyundai dealer
as soon as possible.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTERB280A02NF-AATFUEL GAUGEThe needle on the gauge indicates the
approximate fuel level in the fuel tank. The
fuel capacity is given in section 9.NOTE:The "
" symbol means, the fuel filler
lid is located on the left side of the ve-
hicle.

CAUTION:
Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. If
you run out of fuel, it could cause the
engine to misfire and result in excessive
loading of the catalytic converter.

entering the car through the ventilation
system, temporarily set the air intake
control at the position. Be sure to
return the control to the position
