Engine Oil LevelWarning Light(if equipped)
The engine oil level warning light illu-
minates when the engine oil level
should be checked.
If the warning light comes on, check
the engine oil level as soon as possi-
ble and add engine oil as required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil lit-
tle by little into a funnel. (Oil refill
capacity : approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 l)
Use only the specified engine oil.
(Refer to "Recommended lubricants
and capacities" in chapter 8.)
Do not overfill the engine oil. Make
sure the oil level is not above F (Full)
mark on the dipstick.
Information 
• If you travel approximately 30 ~ 60
miles (50 km ~100 km) after the
engine warms up, after adding the
engine oil, the warning light will go
off.
• Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3 times within 10 seconds, the warning
light will go off immediately. However,
when you turn off the warning light
without adding the engine oil, the light
will come on again after travelling
approximately 30 ~ 60 miles (50 ~ 100
km) after the engine warms up.
If the light comes on continuously
after adding the engine oil and
travelling approximately 30 ~ 60
miles (50 ~ 100 km) after the
engine warms up, we recommend
that the system be checked by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Even if this light doesn't come on
after the engine has started, the
engine oil level should be periodi-
cally checked and topped up if
required.
Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
 When the fuel tank is nearly empty.
Add fuel as soon as possible.
Driving with the Low Fuel Level
warning light on or with the fuel
level below “0” can cause the
engine to misfire and damage the
catalytic converter (if equipped).
Overspeed Warning Light (if equipped)
This warning light blinks:
 When you drive the vehicle more
than 72 mph (120 km/h).
- This is to prevent you from drivingyour vehicle with overspeed.
- The overspeed warning chime also sound for approximately 5
seconds.

(Diesel engine)
1. Be sure the vehicle is on levelground. 2. Start the engine and allow it to reach
normal operating temperature.
3. Turn the engine off and wait for a few minutes (about 5 minutes) for
the oil to return to the oil pan.
4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully.
5. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level.

 Do not spill engine oil, whenadding or changing engine oil. If
you drop the engine oil on the
engine room, wipe it off immedi-
ately.
 When you wipe the oil level gauge, you should wipe it with a clean
cloth. When mixed with debris, it
can cause engine damage.
If it is near or at L, add enough oil to
bring the level to F. Do not overfill.
Use only the specified engine oil.

Checking the brake/clutch
fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir
periodically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap
and adding brake/clutch fluid, clean
the area around the reservoir cap
thoroughly to prevent brake/clutch
fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the
MAX level. The level will fall with
accumulated mileage. This is a nor-
mal condition associated with the
wear of the brake linings. If the fluid level is excessively low, 
we recommend that the system be
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
Information 
Use only the specified brake/clutch
fluid. Refer to “Recommended lubri-
cants and capacities” in chapter 8. 
Information 
Before removing the brake/clutch filler
cap, read the warning on the cap.
Information 
Clean the filler cap before removing.
Use only DOT3 or DOT4 brake/clutch
fluid from a sealed container.
 Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to contact the vehicle's body
paint, as paint damage will
result.
 Brake/clutch fluid, which has been exposed to open air for an
extended time should never be
used as its quality cannot be
guaranteed. It should be dis-
posed of properly.
 Don't put in the wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of mineral-
based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake/clutch system can
damage system parts.
NOTICE

i
OOS077007AU
If the brake/clutch system
requires frequent additions of
fluid this could indicate a leak in
the brake/clutch system. We
recommend that the vehicle be
inspected by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
WARNING  
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid
to come in contact with your
eyes. If brake/clutch fluid comes
in contact with your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention.
