Recommended SAE Viscosity Number
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick before
checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or sandy
areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug and dipstick
areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that
could be damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can
provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of any
viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated
in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from
the chart.

An engine oil displaying this API Certification Mark conforms to
the international Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee
(ILSAC). It is recommended to only use engine oils that uphold
this API Certification Mark.

Electric Power Steering (EPS)
warning light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you set the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
ON position.
- The electric power steering warning
light illuminates for about 3 seconds
and then goes off.
• Whenever there is a malfunction with
the electric power steering.
If the EPS warning light remains
illuminated while driving, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Charging system warning
light
This warning light illuminates:
When there is a malfunction with either
the alternator or electrical charging
system.
If there is a malfunction with either the
alternator or electrical charging system:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and check the
alternator drive belt for looseness or
breakage.
If the belt is adjusted properly, there
may be a problem in the electrical
charging system.
If the Charging system warning light
remains illuminated while driving,
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Engine oil pressure warning
light
This warning light illuminates:
When the engine oil pressure is low.
If the engine oil pressure is low:
• Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
• Turn the engine off and check the
engine oil level (For more details, refer
to “Engine Oil” section in chapter 9). If
the level is low, add oil as required.
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, have
the vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued driving with the warning
light on may cause engine failure.)
Information
When engine oil pressure decreases due to
insufficient engine oil, etc., the Engine Oil
Pressure warning light will illuminate. In
addition, the enhanced engine protection
system which limits engine power will
be activated. If the engine oil pressure is
restored, the Engine Oil Pressure warning
light and the enhanced engine protection
system will turn off. However, for gasoline
2.5 GDI engine and 2.5 turbo engine, when
the engine oil pressure is restored, the
warning light and the enhanced engine
protection system will turn off after the
engine is restarted.

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. Stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.
2. Turn off 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. If the
warning light stays on after the
engine is started, turn the engine
off immediately. If this occurs,
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 "- - -" on the Distance to
Empty indicator 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 indicator 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 the MIL warning light remains
illuminated while driving, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
• If enhanced engine protection system
becomes activated due to lack of
engine oil, engine power will be
limited. If such condition continues
repeatedly, The Malfunction Indicator
Lamp will illuminate.

Instrument Cluster
4-14
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.
• If the enhanced engine protection
system becomes activated due to
lack of engine oil, engine power
will be limited. If such condition
continues repeatedly, the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp will
illuminate.
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, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
Electronic Parking Brake
(EPB) warning light
This warning light illuminates:
• When you set the ignition switch or
the Engine Start/Stop button to the
ON position.
- The EPB warning light illuminates
for about 3 seconds and then goes
off.
• Whenever there is a malfunction with
EPB.
If the EPB warning light remains
illuminated while driving, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Information
The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB)
warning light may illuminate when
the Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
indicator light comes on to indicate that
ESC is not working properly. This does
not indicate malfunction of EPB.
