Turn signal indicator
The blinking arrows on the instru-
ment panel show the direction indi-
cated by the turn signals. If the arrow
comes on but does not blink, blinks
more rapidly than normal, or does
not illuminate at all, a malfunction in
the turn signal system is indicated.
Your dealer should be consulted for
repairs.
High beam indicator
This indicator illuminates when the
headlights are on and in the high
beam position or when the turn sig-
nal lever is pulled into the Flash-to-
Pass position.
Tail light indicator
This indicator illuminates when the
tail lights are on.
Engine oil pressure
warning light
This warning light indicates the
engine oil pressure is low.
If the warning light illuminates while
driving:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and stop.
2. With the engine off, check the engine oil level. If the level is low,
add oil as required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, call
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
If the engine is not stopped immediately after the engine oilpressure warning light is illumi-nated, severe engine damagecould result.

Parking brake & brakefluid warning light
Parking brake warning
This light is illuminated when the
parking brake is applied with the igni-
tion switch in the START or ON posi-
tion. 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 prop-
erly. Have the vehicle towed to any
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for a
brake system inspection and nec-
essary repairs. Your vehicle is equipped with a dual-
diagonal braking system. This means
you still have braking on two wheels
even if one of the brake circuits is
damaged or malfunctions. With only
one of the circuits working, more
than normal pedal travel and greater
pedal pressure are required to stop
the car. Also, the car will not stop in
as short a distance with only a por-
tion 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 switch is in the ON position.
CAUTION
If the oil pressure warning light
stays on while the engine is run-ning, serious engine damage mayresult. The oil pressure warninglight comes on whenever there isinsufficient oil pressure. In nor-mal operation, it should come onwhen the ignition switch is turnedon, then go out when the engineis started. If the oil pressure warn-ing light stays on while theengine is running, there is a seri-ous malfunction.
If this happens, stop the car assoon as it is safe to do so, turnoff the engine and check the oillevel. If the oil level is low, fill theengine oil to the proper leveland start the engine again. If thelight stays on with the enginerunning, turn the engine offimmediately. In any instancewhere the oil light stays onwhen the engine is running, theengine should be checked by anauthorized HYUNDAI dealerbefore the car is driven again.
WARNING
Driving the vehicle with a warn-
ing light on is dangerous. If the
brake warning light remains on,
have the brakes checked and
repaired immediately by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Checking the amount of air
conditioner refrigerant and
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is
low, the performance of the air con-
ditioning is reduced. Overfilling also
has a negative influence on the air
conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is
found, have the system inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING
Because the refriger-
ant is at very high
pressure, the air con-
ditioning system
should only be serv-
iced by trained and certified
technicians. It is important that
the correct type and amount of
oil and refrigerant is used, oth-
erwise damage to the vehicle
and personal injury may occur.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
The following lists are vehicle checks
and inspections that should be per-
formed by the owner or an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer at the frequencies
indicated to help ensure safe,
dependable operation of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer
as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks
are generally not covered by war-
ranties and you may be charged for
labor, parts and lubricants used.Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolantreservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Look for low or under-inflated tires.
While operating your vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of the exhaust or any smell of
exhaust fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel. Notice any increased steer-
ing effort or looseness in the steer-
ing wheel, or change in its straight-
ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns slightly or “pulls” to one side
when traveling on a smooth, level
road.
When stopping, listen and check for unusual sounds, pulling to one
side, increased brake pedal travel
or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the operation of your transaxle occurs,
check the transaxle fluid level.
Check automatic transaxle P (Park) function.
Check parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot
coolant and steam may blow
out under pressure. This could
cause burns or other serious
injury.

Waxing
Wax the vehicle when water will no
longer bead on the paint.
Always wash and dry the vehicle
before waxing. Use a good quality liq-
uid or paste wax, and follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions. Wax all metal
trim to protect it and to maintain its
luster.
Removing oil, tar, and similar materi-
als with a spot remover will usually
strip the wax from the finish. Be sure to
re-wax these areas even if the rest of
the vehicle does not yet need waxing.Finish damage repair
Deep scratches or stone chips in the
painted surface must be repaired
promptly. Exposed metal will quickly
rust and may develop into a major
repair expense.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If your vehicle is damaged and
requires any metal repair or
replacement, be sure the body shop
applies anti-corrosion materials to
the parts repaired or replaced.
Bright-metal maintenance
To remove road tar and insects,
use a tar remover, not a scraper or
other sharp object.
To protect the surfaces of bright- metal parts from corrosion, apply a
coating of wax or chrome preser-
vative and rub to a high luster.
During winter weather or in coastal areas, cover the bright metal parts
with a heavier coating of wax or
preservative. If necessary, coat the
parts with non-corrosive petroleum
jelly or other protective compound.CAUTION
Wiping dust or dirt off the body with a dry cloth willscratch the finish.
Do not use steel wool, abra- sive cleaners, or strong deter-gents containing highly alka-line or caustic agents onchrome-plated or anodizedaluminum parts. This mayresult in damage to the protec-tive coating and cause discol-oration or paint deterioration.
CAUTION
Water washing in the engine compartment including highpressure water washing maycause the failure of electricalcircuits or engine and relatedcomponents located in theengine compartment.
Never allow water or other liq- uids to come in contact withelectrical/electronic compo-nents and air duct inside thevehicle as this may damagethem.
