Service Lamp
This warning light illuminates:
• [Red] When a hydrogen leak is detected by one of the four hydrogen
sensors in the vehicle.
If this occurs, the vehicle will revert to “EV mode”, which will allow the
vehicle to be driven solely on the high voltage battery system. EV mode is
limited to only about 1 mile of driving range, therefore it is important to pull
over to the side of the road as soon as it is reasonably safe to do so.
When the vehicle has stopped, turn OFF the ignition and contact an
authorized Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell dealer immediately.
• [Yellow] When there is a malfunction with one of the hydrogen leakage
detection sensors.
If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Hyundai
Tucson Fuel Cell dealer as soon as possible.
