Features of your vehicle
52 4
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 greater pedal
pressure are required to stop the vehicle.
Also, the vehicle 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 addi-
tional engine braking and stop the vehicle
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 switch
is in the ON position.Front fog light indicator
(if equipped)
This indicator illuminates when the front
fog lights are ON.
Rear fog light indicator
(If equipped)
This indicator illuminates when the rear
fog lights are ON.
Shift pattern indicator
(if equipped)
The indicator displays which automatic
transaxle shift lever is selected.
WARNING
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light on is dangerous. If the brake
warning light remains on, we recom-
mend that the system be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Maintenance
LIGHT BULBS
Consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer
to replace most vehicle light bulbs. It is
difficult to replace vehicle light bulbs
because other parts of the vehicle must
be removed before you can get to the
bulb. This is especially true for removing
the headlight assembly to get to the
bulb(s). Removing/installing the head-
light assembly can result in damage to
the vehicle.
✽NOTICE
After heavy driving, rain or washing
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is caused
by the temperature difference between
the lamp inside and outside. This is sim-
ilar to the condensation on your win-
dows inside your vehicle during the rain
and doesn’t indicate a problem with
your vehicle. If the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, we recommend that
the system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
• Prior to replacing a light, depress
the foot brake, move the shift
lever into the P (Park, for auto-
matic transaxle vehicle) or neu-
tral (for manual transaxle vehi-
cle), apply the parking brake,
place the ignition
switch in the LOCK/OFF position,
and take the key with you when
leaving the vehicle to avoid sud-
den movement of the vehicle and
to prevent possible electric
shock.
• Be aware the bulbs may be hot
and may burn your fingers.
CAUTION
Be sure to replace the burned-out
bulb with one of the same wattage
rating. Otherwise, it may cause
damage to the fuse or electric
wiring system.
