SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-freeand
there are no parts you can safely service
by yourself. If the SRS air bag warning
light does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is in the ON position,
or continuously remains on, have your
vehicle immediately inspected by
anauthorized HYUNDAI dealer. Any work
on the SRS system, such as removing,
installing, repairing, or anywork on the
steering wheel, the front passenger’s
panel, front seats and roofrails must be
performed by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer. Improper handling ofthe SRS
system may result in serious personal
injury. WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death take the following precautions:
• Do not attempt to modify or
disconnect the SRS components or
wiring, including the addition of any
kind of badges to the pad covers or
modifications to the body structure.
• Do not place objects over or near
the air bag modules on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, and the
front passenger’s panel above the
glove box.
• Clean the air bag pad covers with
a soft cloth moistened with plain
water. Solvents or cleaners could
adversely affect the air bag covers
and proper deployment of the
system.
• Always have inflated air
bagsreplaced by an authorized
HYUNDAIdealer.
• If components of the air bag system
must be discarded, or if the vehicle
must be scrapped, certain safety
precautions must be observed.
Consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for the necessary information.
Failure to follow these precautions
could increase the risk of personal
injury.

ONX4040007ONX4040007OTM040010OTM040010This gauge indicates the temperature
of the engine coolant when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
NOTICE
If the gauge pointer moves beyond the
normal range area toward the H (or
HOT) 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” section in chapter 8.
WARNING
Never remove the engine coolant
reservoir cap when the engine is hot.
The engine coolant is under pressure
and could cause a severe burn or injury.
Wait until the engine is cool before
adding coolant to the reservoir.

Information
• The fuel tank capacity is given in
chapter 2.
• The fuel gauge is supplemented by
a low fuel warning light, which will
illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly
empty.
• On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge
pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel
warning light may come on earlier than
usual due to the movement of fuel in
the tank.
WARNING
Running out of fuel can expose vehicle
occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional
fuel as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on or when the
gauge indicator comes close to the “E
(Empty) or 0” level.
NOTICE
Avoid driving with an extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire damaging
the catalytic converter.
