towards the driver, the compass mirror
can also compensate for drivers seated
on the Left Hand side of the vehicle
(steering wheel on the LH side of the
vehicle) or Right Hand side of the vehicle
(steering wheel on the RH side of the
vehicle).
To adjust the Left Hand, “L” or Right
Hand, “R”, setting:
1. Press and hold the button for more than 12 seconds.
2. Release then press the button to tog- gle between “L” and “R”.
✽✽ NOTICE
This procedure also causes the compass
to be de-calibrated.
3. To re-calibrate the compass, drive the vehicle in 2 complete circles at less than 8km/h (5mph).
CAUTION
1. Do not install the ski rack, anten-
na, etc. which are attached to thevehicle by means of a magnet.They affect the operation of the compass.
2. If the compass deviates from the correct indication soon afterrepeated adjustment, have thecompass checked at an author- ized HYUNDAI dealer.
3. The compass may not indicate the correct compass point in tun-nels or while driving up or down asteep hill.
(The compass returns to the cor-rect compass point when the
vehicle moves to an area wherethe geomagnetism is stabilized.)
4. When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Donot spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may causethe liquid cleaner to enter the mir-

The tachometer pointer may move slight-
ly when the ignition switch is in ACC or
ON position with the engine OFF. This
movement is normal and will not affect
the accuracy of the tachometer once the
engine is running.
Engine temperature gauge
This gauge shows the temperature of the
engine coolant when the ignition switchis ON.
Do not continue driving with an overheat-
ed engine. If your vehicle overheats, refer
to “If the engine overheats” in section 6.
CAUTION
If the gauge pointer moves beyond
the normal range area toward the “ ” position, it indicates over-
heating that may damage theengine.
CAUTION
Do not operate the engine withinthe tachometer's RED ZONE. This may cause severe engine damage.

WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. The enginecoolant is under pressure and
could cause severe burns. Wait
until the engine is cool before
adding coolant to the reservoir.

Parking brake & brake
fluid warning
Parking brake warning
This light is illuminated when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in
the START or ON position. The warning
light should go off when the parking
brake is released.
Low brake fluid level warning
If the warning light remains on, it may
indicate that the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
If the warning light remains on:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check the brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required. Then check all brake
components for fluid leaks.
3. Do not drive the vehicle if leaks are found, the warning light remains on or
the brakes do not operate properly.
Have it towed to any authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for a brake system
inspection and necessary repairs. Your vehicle is equipped with dual-diago-
nal braking systems. This means you still
have braking on two wheels even if one
of the dual systems should fail. With only
one of the dual systems working, more
than normal pedal travel and greaterpedal pressure are required to stop the
car. Also, the car will not stop in as short
a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working. If the brakes fail
while you are driving, shift to a lower gear
for additional engine braking and stop the
car as soon as it is safe to do so.
To check bulb operation, check whether
the parking brake and brake fluid warning
light illuminates when the ignition switchis in the ON position.
WARNING
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light on is dangerous. If the brake
warning light remains on, have the
brakes checked and repaired imme-
diately by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
CAUTION
If the light comes on continuously after adding the engine oil and trav-
eling approximately 50 km, takeyour vehicle to your nearest author-ized HYUNDAI dealer and have the system checked.
Even if this light doesn't come onafter the engine has started, the engine oil should be checked andsupplied periodically.

approximately 120 cm (47 in.).
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the closest
one will be recognized first.
Types of warning sound
When an object is 120 cm to 81 cm (47in. to 32 in.) from the rear bumper:
Buzzer beeps intermittently.
When an object is 80 cm to 41 cm (31 in. to 16 in.) from the rear bumper:
Buzzer beeps more frequently.
When an object is within 40 cm (15 in.) of the rear bumper:
Buzzer sounds continuously.
Type of the warning indicator
(if equipped)
*1: It indicates the range of sensing object by each sensor. (Left, Center, Right)
❈ : In case of that the object is between
sensors or close, indicator could be

1. Moisture is frozen to the sensor. (It will
operate normally when the moisture has been cleared.)
2. The sensor is covered with foreign matter, such as snow or water, or the
sensor cover is blocked. (It will operate
normally when the material is removed
or the sensor is no longer blocked.)
3. Driving on uneven road surfaces (unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, gradi-ent).
