Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the
approximate number of engine revo-
lutions per minute (rpm). Use the tachometer to select the cor-
rect shift points and to prevent lug-
ging and/or over-revving the engine. Do not operate the engine within
the tachometer's RED ZONE. This
may cause severe engine damage.
Engine coolant temperaturegauge
This gauge indicates the tempera- ture of the engine coolant when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
If the gauge pointer moves
beyond the normal range area
toward the “130 or H” position, it
indicates overheating that may
damage the engine.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. If your vehicle
overheats, refer to "If the Engine
Overheats" in chapter 6.
Fuel gauge
This gauge indicates the approxi- mate amount of fuel remaining in thefuel tank.

What to do in an emergency

6. If you cannot find the cause of theoverheating, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor-
mal. Then, if coolant has beenlost, carefully add coolant to the
reservoir to bring the fluid level in
the reservoir up to the halfway
mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheat-
ing. If overheating happens again,
we recommend that you call an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance. (1) Low tire pressure telltale /
TPMS malfunction indicator
Each tire, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthlywhen cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer on the vehicle plac-
ard or tire inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for
those tires.) As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of yourtires is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pres-
sure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a signifi-cantly under-inflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and
may affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-bility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.
Serious loss of coolant indi- cates a leak in the coolingsystem and we recommend
the system be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
When the engine overheats
from low engine coolant, sud-
denly adding engine coolant
may cause cracks in the
engine. To prevent damage,
add engine coolant slowly insmall quantities.

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, depend-
able operation of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer
as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance vehicle
checks are generally not covered by
warranties 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 the coolant level in the
engine coolant reservoir.
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
Check for low or under-inflated tires.
Performing maintenance work
on a vehicle can be dangerous.
If you lack sufficient knowledge
and experience or the propertools and equipment to do the
work, we
recommend that the
system be serviced by an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer. ALWAYS
follow these precautions for
performing maintenance work:
Park your vehicle on level
ground, move the shift lever
into the P (Park, for dual
clutch transmission vehicle)
position or neutral (for manu-
al transmission vehicle) posi-
tion, apply the parking brake,
and place the ignition switchin the LOCK/ OFF position.
Block the tires (front and back)
to prevent the vehicle from
moving.
Remove loose clothing or jew-
elry that can become entan-
gled in moving parts.
WARNING If you must run the engine
during maintenance, do so
out doors or in an area withplenty of ventilation.
Keep flames, sparks, or smok-
ing materials away from the
battery and fuel-related parts.
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. This may result in
coolant being blown out of theopening and cause serious
burns and other injuries.
