Exhaust System (DPF)
Warning Light (for
diesel engine)
This warning light illuminates:
• When there is a malfunction with
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) sys-
tem.
• When this warning light illumi-
nates, it may turn off after driving
the vehicle:
- at more than 60 km/h (37 mph), or
- at more than 2nd gear with 1500
~ 2000 engine rpm for a certain
time (for about 25 minutes).
If this warning light blinks in spite of
the procedure (at this time LCD
warning message will be displayed),
we recommend that you have the
DPF system checked by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
If you continue to drive with the
DPF warning light blinking for a
long time, the DPF system can be
damaged and fuel consumption
can worsen.
Glow Indicator Light
(for diesel engine)
This indicator light illuminates:
• When the engine is being preheat-
ed with the ignition switch or
Engine Start/Stop Button in the ON
position.
- The engine can be started after
the glow indicator light goes off.
- The illumination time varies with
the engine coolant temperature,
air temperature, and battery con-
dition.
If the indicator light remains on or
blinks after the engine has warmed
up or while driving, there may a mal-
function with the engine preheating
system.
In this case, we recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
If the engine does not start within 10
seconds after the preheating is com-
pleted, set the ignition switch or
Engine Start/Stop Button to the
LOCK or OFF position for 10 seconds
and then to the ON position in order
to preheat the engine again.

System maintenance
Climate control air filter
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dust
or other pollutants that come into the
vehicle from the outside through the
heating and air conditioning system.
If dust or other pollutants accumulate
in the filter over a period of time, the
air flow from the air vents may
decrease, resulting in moisture accu-
mulation on the inside of the wind-
shield even when the outside (fresh)
air position is selected. If this hap-
pens, we recommend that the cli-
mate control air filter be replaced by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
• Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the car is being driven in severe con-
ditions such as dusty, rough roads,
more frequent climate control air filter
inspections and changes are required.
• When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
It is important that the correct type
and amount of oil and refrigerant is
used. Otherwise, damage to the com-
pressor and abnormal system opera-
tion may occur.

label in the vehicle may differ from the

We recommend that the air con-
ditioning system be serviced by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Improper service may cause
serious injury to the person per-
forming the service.
