The speedometer indicates the speed of
the vehicle and is calibrated in kilometers
per hour (km/h).
Power/Charge gauge
OOSEV040474L
The Power/Charge gauge shows the
energy consumption rate of the vehicle
and the charge/discharge status of the
regenerative brakes. • POWER :
It shows the energy consumption rate
of the vehicle when driving uphill or
accelerating. The more electric energy is
used, the higher the gauge level. • CHARGE :
It shows the charging status of the
battery when it is being charged by the
regenerative brakes (decelerating or
driving on a downhill road). The more
electric energy is charged, the lower the
gauge level.

Parking Brake & Brake Fluid
Warning Light
This warning light illuminates:
•
When you set the START/STOP button in the ON position.
- It illuminates for approximately 3 seconds.
- It remains on if the parking brake is applied.
• When the parking brake is applied.
• When the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
- If the warning light illuminates with the parking brake released, it
indicates the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
• When the regenerative brake does not
operate.
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 vehicle turned off, check the brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required (For more details,
refer to “Brake Fluid” in chapter 9) .
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. We recommend that
you have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Dual-diagonal braking system
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-
diagonal 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 are 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.
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, we recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
