Warnings and indicators
All warning lights are checked by
turning the ignition switch ON (do not
start the engine). Any light that does
not illuminate should be checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
After starting the engine, check to
make sure that all warning lights are
off. If any are still on, this indicates a
situation that needs attention. When
releasing the parking brake, the
brake system warning light should go
off. The fuel warning light will stay on
if the fuel level is low.
Air bag warning light
This warning light will illuminate for
approximately 6 seconds each time
you turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
This light also comes on when the
Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) is not working properly. If the
SRS air bag warning light does
not come on, or continuously remains
on after operating for about 6 sec-
onds when you turned the ignition
switch to the ON position or started
the engine, or if it comes on while
driving, have the SRS inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Anti-lock brake system(ABS) warning light
This light illuminates if the ignition
switch is turned ON and goes off in
approximately 3 seconds if the sys-
tem is operating normally.
If the ABS warning light remains on,
comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, this indi-
cates that there may be a malfunc-
tion with the ABS.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible. The nor-
mal braking system will still be oper-
ational, but without the assistance of
the anti-lock brake system.

the warning light will blink for approxi-
mately the 6 seconds and the warning
chime will turn off immediately.
If the driver's seat belt is disconnected
after the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position, the seat belt warning light
will blink for approximately 6 seconds
until the belt is fastened. If the driver's
seat belt is not fastened when the vehi-
cle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h),
the seat belt warning light and chime
will operate approximately 10 times
with a pattern of 6 seconds on and 24
