WARNING
Make sure the vehicle is off, the shift
lever is in P (Park), and the parking
brake is securely applied whenever
loading or unloading cargo. Failure to
take these steps may allow the vehicle
to move if the shift lever is inadvertently
moved to another position.
NOTICE
• Be careful when loading cargo
through the rear passenger seats
to prevent damage to the vehicle
interior.
• When cargo is loaded through the
rear passenger seats, ensure the
cargo is properly secured to prevent
it from moving while driving.
• Unsecured cargo in the passenger
compartment can cause damage
to the vehicle or injury to the
occupants.
Head Restraints
The vehicle’s front and rear seats
have adjustable head restraints. The
head restraints provide comfort for
passengers, but more importantly they
are designed to help protect passengers
from whiplash and other neck and spinal
injuries during an accident, especially in
a rear impact collision.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death in an accident, take the following
precautions when adjusting your head
restraints:
• Always properly adjust the head
restraints for all passengers BEFORE
starting the vehicle.
• NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the head restraints removed or
reversed.
OLF034072N
Adjust the head restraints so the
middle of the head restraint is at the
same height as the height of the top
of the eyes.
• NEVER adjust the head restraint
position of the driver’s seat when the
vehicle is in motion.
• Adjust the head restraint as close to
the passenger’s head as possible. Do
not use a seat cushion that holds the
body away from the seatback.
• Make sure the head restraint locks
into position after adjusting it.
NOTICE
To prevent damage, NEVER hit or pull
on the head restraints.
CAUTION
When there are no occupants in the
rear seats, adjust the height of the head
restraint to the lowest position. The
rear seat head restraint can reduce the
visibility of the rear area.

Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you place the ignition switch to
the ON position.
-The parking brake light illuminates
for about 3 seconds and will then
turn off once the parking brake is
released.
• Whenever the parking brake is
applied.
• Whenever the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
-If the warning light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level in
the reservoir is low.
If the brake fluid level in the reservoir 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
information, refer to "Brake Fluid" in
chapter 8). After adding brake fluid,
check all brake components for fluid
leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found, or
if the warning light remains on, 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
dualdiagonal 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
working, 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.
WARNING
Parking Brake & Brake Fluid Warning
Light
Driving the vehicle with a warning light
ON is dangerous. If the Parking Brake &
Brake Fluid Warning Light illuminates
with the parking brake released, it
indicates that the brake fluid level is
low.
In this case, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Note that the hydraulic braking
system will still be operational even if
there is a malfunction with the ABS.

(EBD) System Warning Light
When both ABS and Parking Brake &
Brake Fluid Warning Lights are on, the
brake system will not work normally
and you may experience an unexpected
and dangerous situation during sudden
braking.
In this case, avoid high speed driving
and abrupt braking.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.

may illuminate and the steering effort may
increase or decrease.
In this case, have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.

This warning light illuminates:
• When you place the ignition switch to
the ON position.

WARNING
Do not leave children or animals
unattended in your vehicle. An enclosed
vehicle can become extremely hot,

cannot escape the vehicle. Children
might operate features of the vehicle
that could injure them, or they could
encounter other harm, possibly from
someone gaining entry to the vehicle.
WARNING
Always secure your vehicle.
Leaving your vehicle unlocked increases
the potential risk to you or others from

around the engine compartment to
ensure the following:
-Any tools or other loose objects are
removed from the engine room area
or hood opening area
