Engine oil pressure warning 
light
This warning light illuminates:
When the engine oil pressure is low.
If the engine oil pressure is low:
1.
 Drive car
efully to the nearest safe 
location and stop your vehicle.
2.
 Turn the engine o
ff and check the 
engine oil level (For more details, 
refer to “Engine Oil” section in 
chapter 2). If the level is low, add oil 
as required.
If the warning light remains on after 
adding oil or if oil is not available, we 
recommend that you have the vehicle 
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer as soon as possible.
NOTICE
•	 If the engine does not stop 
immediately after the Engine Oil 
Pressure warning light is illuminated, 
severe damage could result.
•	 If the warning light stays on while the 
engine is running, it indicates that 
there may be serious engine damage 
or malfunction. In this case:
1.
 St
op the vehicle as soon as it is 
safe to do so.
2.
 Turn o
ff the engine and check the 
oil level. If the oil level is low, fill 
the engine oil to the proper level.
3.
 Start the engine again. I
f the 
warning light stays on after the 
engine is started, turn the engine 
off immediately. If this occurs, 
we recommend that you have 
the vehicle inspected by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Low fuel level warning light
This warning light illuminates:
When the fuel tank is nearly empty.
Add fuel as soon as possible.
NOTICE
Driving with the Low Fuel Level warning 
light on or with the fuel level below “E 
or 0” can cause the engine to misfire 
and damage the catalytic converter.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp 
(MIL)
This indicator light illuminates:
•	 When you set the ignition switch or 
the Engine Start/Stop button to the 
ON position.
 - The malfunction indicat
or light 
illuminates for about 3 seconds and 
then goes off.
•	 Whenever there is a malfunction with 
either the emission control system or 
the engine or the vehicle powertrain.
If this occurs, we recommend that 
you have the vehicle inspected by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
Driving with the Malfunction Indicator 
Lamp (MIL) on may cause damage to 
the emission control system which 
could affect drivability and/or fuel 
economy.
NOTICE
If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp 
(MIL) illuminates, potential catalytic 
converter damage is possible which 
could result in loss of engine power.
If this occurs, we recommend that 
you have the vehicle inspected by an 
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as 
possible.

Checking the amount of air 
conditioner refrigerant and 
compressor lubricant
When the amount of refrigerant is low, 
the performance of the air conditioning 
is reduced. Overfilling also reduces the 
performance of the air conditioning system.
Therefore, if abnormal operation is found, we 
recommend that the system be inspected by 
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
It is important that the correct type and 
amount of oil and refrigerant is used. 
Otherwise, damage to the compressor 
and abnormal system operation may 
occur. To prevent damage, the air 
conditioning system in your vehicle 
should only be serviced by trained and 
certified technicians.
 WARNING
Vehicles equipped with R-1234yf
Since the refrigerant is 
mildly flammable and 
operated at high pressure, 
the air conditioning system 
should only be serviced 
by trained and certified 
technicians. It is important 
that the correct type and 
amount of oil and refrigerant 
are used.
All refrigerants should be reclaimed 
with proper equipment.
Venting refrigerants directly to the 
atmosphere is harmful to individuals 
and environment. Failure to heed these 
warnings can lead to serious injuries.

Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas 
unless you are sure the water is no 
higher than the bottom of the wheel hub. 
Drive through any water slowly. Allow 
adequate stopping distance because 
brake performance may be reduced.
After driving through water, dry the 
brakes by gently applying them several 
times while the vehicle is moving slowly.
Highway driving
Tires
Adjust the tire inflation, as specified. 
Under-inflation may overheat or damage 
the tires.
Do not install worn-out or damaged tires, 
which may reduce traction or fail the 
braking operation.
 Information
Never over-inflate your tires above the 
maximum inflation pressure, as specified 
on your tires.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil
Driving at higher speeds on the highway 
consumes more fuel and is less efficient 
than driving at a slower, more moderate 
speed. Maintain a moderate speed in 
order to conserve fuel when driving on 
the highway.
Be sure to check both the engine coolant 
level and the engine oil before driving.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may 
overheat the engine.
Reducing the risk of a rollover
Your multi-purpose passenger vehicle is 
defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV). 
SUV’s have higher ground clearance 
and a narrower track to make them 
capable of performing in a wide variety 
of off-road applications. The specific 
design characteristics give them a higher 
center of gravity than ordinary vehicles 
making them more likely to roll over if 
you make abrupt turns. Utility vehicles 
have a significantly higher rollover rate 
than other types of vehicles. Due to this 
risk, driver and passengers are strongly 
recommended to buckle their seat belts. 
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person 
is significantly more likely to die than a 
person wearing a seat belt.
There are steps that a driver can make 
to reduce the risk of a rollover. If at all 
possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt 
maneuvers, do not load your vehicle 
with heavy cargo on the roof, and never 
modify your vehicle in any way.
 WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly 
higher rollover rate than other types of 
vehicles. To prevent rollovers or loss of 
control:
•	Take corners at slower speeds than 
you would with a passenger vehicle.
•	 Avoid sharp turns and abrupt 
maneuvers.
•	 Do not modify your vehicle in any 
way that you would raise the center 
of gravity.
•	 Keep tires properly inflated.
•	 Do not carry heavy cargo on the roof.
 WARNING
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person 
is significantly more likely to die than a 
person wearing a seat belt. Make sure 
all passengers are wearing their seat 
belts.    

Maintenance
9-6
Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop for fuel:
•	Check the engine oil level.
•	 Check the coolant level in the engine 
coolant reservoir or the water-cooled 
intercooler coolant reservoir.
•	 Check the windshield washer fluid 
level.
•	 Check for low or under-inflated tires.
 WARNING
Be careful when checking your coolant 
level when the engine is hot. This may 
result in coolant being blown out of the 
opening and cause serious burns and 
other injuries.
While operating your vehicle:
•	Note any changes in the sound of the 
exhaust or any smell of exhaust fumes 
in the vehicle.
•	 Check for vibrations in the steering 
wheel. Notice if there is any increased 
steering effort or looseness in the 
steering wheel, or change in its 
straight-ahead position.
•	 Notice if your vehicle constantly turns 
slightly or “pulls” to one side when 
traveling on smooth, level road.
•	 When stopping, listen and check for 
unusual sounds, pulling to one side, 
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.
•	 If any slipping or changes in the 
operation of your transmission occurs, 
check the transmission fluid level.
•	 Check the automatic transmission P 
(Park) function.
•	 Check the parking brake.
•	 Check for fluid leaks under your 
vehicle (water dripping from the air 
conditioning system during or after 
use is normal).
At least monthly:
•	Check coolant level in the engine 
coolant reservoir.
•	 Check the operation of all exterior 
lights, including the stoplights, turn 
signals and hazard warning flashers.
•	 Check the inflation pressures of all 
tires including the spare for tires that 
are worn, show uneven wear, or are 
damaged.
•	 Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year: (i.e., every 
Spring and Autumn)
•	Check radiator, heater and air 
conditioning hoses for leaks or 
damage.
•	 Check windshield washer spray and 
wiper operation. Clean wiper blades 
with a clean cloth dampened with 
washer fluid.
•	 Check headlamp alignment.
•	 Check muffler, exhaust pipes, shields 
and clamps.
•	 Check the seat belts for wear and 
function.
At least once a year:
•	Clean body and door drain holes.
•	 Lubricate door hinges and hood 
hinges.
•	 Lubricate door and hood locks and 
latches.
•	 Lubricate door rubber weather strips.
•	 Check the air conditioning system.
•	 Inspect and lubricate automatic 
transmission linkage and controls.
•	 Clean the battery and terminals.
•	 Check the brake fluid level.
