CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 41
B260M01A-AAT
Low Fuel Level Warning Light
The low fuel level warning light comes on when
the fuel tank is approaching empty. When it
comes on, you should add fuel as soon as
possible. Driving with the fuel level warning light
on or with the fuel level below "E" can cause the
engine to misfire and damage the catalytic
converter.
B260K01B-EAT
Hatchback Door Open Warning
Light
This light remains on unless the tail gate is
completely closed and latched.
B260E01HP-GAT
Seat Belt Warning Light
The seat belt warning light blinks for about 6
seconds when the ignition key is turned from
the "OFF" position to "ON" or "START".
B260L01A-GAT
Door Ajar Warning Light
The door ajar warning light warns you that a
door is not completely closed.
B260A01B-GAT
Front Fog Indicator Light
Front fog indicator light comes on whenever the
fog light switch is on.
B260J01S-EAT
Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light should come
on when the ignition is turned on, then go out
when the engine is running. If the light stays on
whilst the engine is running, there is a malfunc-
tion in the electrical charging system. If the light
comes on whilst you are driving, stop, turn off
the engine and check under the bonnet. First,
make certain the generator drive belt is in
place. If it is, check the tension of the belt.
And then, have the system checked by your
Hyundai dealer.
CAUTION:
If the drive belt (generator belt) is loose,
broken, or missing whilst the vehicle is driv-
ing, there may be a serious malfunction,
engine could overheat because this belt also
drives the water pump.
B260Q01HP-EAT
Cruise Indicator Light
(Not all models)
The cruise indicator light in the instrument clus-
ter is illuminated only when the vehicle cruising
speed has been set using the control switch on
the steering wheel.
The indicator light does not illuminate when the
main cruise control switch is activated.
Information on the use of cruise control may be
found on page 1-66.
The brake fluid level warning light indicates that
the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder
is low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming to
DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be
added. After adding fluid, if no other trouble is
found, the car should be immediately and care-
fully driven to a Hyundai dealer for inspection.
If further trouble is experienced, the vehicle
should not be driven at all but taken to a dealer
by a professional towing service or some other
safe method.
Your Hyundai 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 car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a
distance with only half of the brake system
working. If the brakes fail whilst you are driving,
shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak-
ing and stop the car as soon as it is safe to do
so.
