If the gauge pointer moves beyond the
normal range area toward the "H"
position, it indicates overheating that
may damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine. If your vehicle over-
heats, refer to "If the Engine
Overheats" in chapter 6.
Fuel gauge
This gauge indicates the approximate
amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.
Information
• The fuel tank capacity is given in chap-ter 8.
• 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 pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in the
tank.
Avoid driving with an extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, damaging
the catalytic converter.
NOTICE
iNOTICE
Running out of fuel can expose
vehicle occupants to danger. You
must stop and obtain additional
fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the
"E (Empty)" level.
WARNINGNever remove the radiator cap or
reservoir cap when the engine is
hot. The engine coolant is under
pressure and could severely burn.
Wait until the engine is cool before
adding coolant to the reservoir.

cates the brake fluid level in reservoir
is low.
If the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir is low:
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 (For more informa-
tion, refer to "Brake Fluid" in chap-
ter 7). After adding brake fluid, check
all brake components for fluid leaks. If
a brake fluid leak is found, or if the

brakes do not operate properly, do not
drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
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 work-
ing, more than normal pedal travel and
greater pedal pressure is 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 additional engine
braking and stop the vehicle as soon as
it is safe to do so.
