Engine coolant temperature
gauge
This gauge shows the temperature
of the engine coolant when the igni-
tion switch is ON.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “If the engine over-
heats” in section 6.
If the segment level moves beyond
the normal range area toward the “H”
position, it indicates overheating that
may damage the engine.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the approx-
imate amount of fuel remaining in the
fuel tank.

The fuel tank capacity is given in sec-
tion 12.
The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is
nearly empty.
On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge segment level may fluctuate
or the low fuel warning light may
come on earlier than usual due to
the movement of fuel in the tank.
CAUTION - Red zone
Do not operate the engine with-in the tachometer's RED ZONE.This may cause severe enginedamage.

EPB (Electric ParkingBrake) malfunction indi-cator (if equipped)
The EPB malfunction indicator will
illuminate when the ignition switch is
turned ON, but should go off after
approximately 3 seconds. If the
warning light does not come on, or
continuously remains on take your
vehicle to an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer and have the system
checked.
Also, the EPB malfunction indicator
may illuminate when the ESC indica-
tor comes on to indicate that the
ESC is not working properly, but if
this occurs, it does not indicate the
EPB has malfunctioned.
AUTO HOLD indicatorlight (if equipped)
If you press the AUTO HOLD switch,
the AUTO HOLD indicator on the
cluster comes on white. And when
you stop the vehicle completely by
pressing the brake pedal, the indica-
tor changes from white to green.
If the AUTO HOLD malfunction indi-
cator lights up yellow, the AUTO
HOLD is not working properly. Take
your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the sys-
tem checked.
For more information, refer to
"AUTO HOLD" in section 5.
EPS (Electronic PowerSteering) system warn-ing light
This indicator light comes on after
the ignition key is turned to the ON
position and then goes out after
approximately 6 seconds.
This light also comes on when the
EPS has some problems. If it comes
on while driving, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Engine coolant tempera-ture warning light
The warning light illuminates if the
temperature of the engine coolant is
above 125±2.5°C (257±4.5°F).
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to “Overheating” in sec-
tion 6.

Low Fuel
This warning message illuminates if
the fuel tank is nearly empty.
- When the low fuel level warning
light is illuminates.
- When the trip computer displays “-- - mile (or km)” as distance to empty.
Add fuel as soon as possible. Engine has overheated
This warning message illuminates
when the engine coolant tempera-
ture is above 120°C (248°F). This
means that the engine is overheated
and may be damaged.
If your vehicle is overheated, refer
to “Overheating” in chapter 6.

Air conditioning
HYUNDAI Air Conditioning Systems
are filled with environmentally friend-
ly R-134a refrigerant.
1. Start the engine. Press the air
conditioning button.
2. Set the mode to the position.
3. Set the air intake control to the outside air or recirculated air posi-
tion.
4. Adjust the fan speed control and temperature control to maintain
maximum comfort.
✽ ✽NOTICE- Excessive A/C
When using the air conditioning sys-
tem, monitor the engine coolant
closely while driving up hills or in
heavy traffic when outside tempera-
tures are high. Air conditioning sys-
tem operation may cause engine
overheating and potential engine
damage. Continue to use the blower
fan but turn the air conditioning
system off if the engine coolant tem-
perature gauge indicates engine
overheating.
Air conditioning system operation tips
If the vehicle has been parked in
direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows for a short time
to let the hot air inside the vehicle
escape.
To help reduce moisture inside of the windows on rainy or humid
days, decrease the humidity inside
the vehicle by operating the air
conditioning system.
During air conditioning system operation, you may occasionally
notice a slight change in engine
speed as the air conditioning com-
pressor cycles. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.
Use the air conditioning system every month only for a few minutes
to ensure maximum system per-
formance.
When using the air conditioning system, you may notice clear water
dripping (or even puddling) on the
ground under the passenger side
of the vehicle. This is a normal sys-
tem operation characteristic. Operating the air conditioning sys-
tem in the recirculated air position
provides maximum cooling, how-
ever, continual operation in this
mode may cause the air inside the
vehicle to become stale.
After sufficient cooling has been
achieved, switch back from the
recirculated air to the fresh outside
air position.
During cooling operation, you may occasionally notice a misty air flow
because of rapid cooling and
humid air intake. This is a normal
system operation characteristic.

Operation Tips
To keep dust or unpleasant fumesfrom entering the vehicle through
the ventilation system, temporarily
set the air intake control to the
recirculated air position. Be sure to
return the control to the fresh air
position when the irritation has
passed to keep fresh air in the
vehicle. This will help keep the driv-
er alert and comfortable.
Air for the heating/cooling system is drawn in through the grilles just
ahead of the windshield. Care
should be taken that these are not
blocked by leaves, snow, ice or
other obstructions.
To prevent interior fog on the wind- shield, set the air intake control to
the fresh air position and fan speed
to the desired position, turn on the
air conditioning system, and adjust
the temperature control to desired
temperature.Air conditioning

The power outlet is designed to pro-
vide power for mobile telephones or
other devices designed to operate
with vehicle electrical systems. The
devices should draw less than 10
amps with the engine running.
Use the power outlet only when the
engine is running and remove the
accessory plug after use. Using the
accessory plug for prolonged peri-
ods of time with the engine off could
cause the battery to discharge.
Only use 12V electric accessories which are less than 10A in electric
capacity. If not, it could lead to an
overheated power outlet or electric
wiring in the vehicle and electric
systems may malfunction.
Adjust the air-conditioner or heater to the lowest operating level when
using the power outlet.
Close the cover when not in use.
Some electronic devices can cause electronic interference when
plugged into a vehicle’s power
outlet. These devices may cause
excessive audio static and malfunc-
tions in other electronic systems or
devices used in your vehicle.Digital clock (if equipped)
Whenever the battery terminals or
related fuses are disconnected, you
must reset the time.
Detailed information on setting the
clock is described in Audio system
section 4.
WARNING
Do not adjust the clock while
driving. You may lose your
steering control and cause an
accident that results in severe
personal injury or death.
WARNING - Electricshock
Do not put fingers or objects
(pin, coin, etc.) into a power out-
let and do not touch with wet
hands. You may get an electric
shock.
CAUTION
Make sure that the electric devices are plugged in secure-ly. If not, it could cause a mal-function of electric systems.
If you use an electric device with a battery, electric currentmay flow from the electricdevice into the vehicle andmay cause a malfunction ofelectric systems. Only useelectric devices which couldprevent inverse current.

WARNING - Driving while
intoxicated
Do not drive while intoxicated.
Drinking and driving is danger-
ous. Even a small amount of
alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment.
Driving while under the influence
of drugs is as dangerous as or
more dangerous than driving
drunk. Driving while intoxicated
can result in a serious accident.
WARNING - Loose object
Securely store items in your
vehicle. When you make a sud-
den stop or turn the steering
wheel rapidly, loose objects
may drop on the floor and it
could interfere with the opera-
tion of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident.WARNING - Fire risk
When you intend to park or stop
the vehicle with the engine on,
be careful not to depress the
accelerator pedal for a long
period of time. It may overheat
the engine or exhaust system
and cause fire.WARNING - Check
surroundings
Always check the surrounding
areas near your vehicle for peo-
ple, especially children, before
putting a vehicle into D (Drive)
or R (Reverse). Otherwise, an
accident may occur hurting or
killing people or children around
the vehicle.
