COMBINATION TURN SIGNAL,
HEADLIGHT AND LOW-BEAM SWITCH
Turn Signal Operation
Pulling down on the lever causes the turn sig-
nals on the left side of the car to blink. Pushing
upward on the lever causes the turn signals on
the right side of the car to blink. As the turn is
completed, the lever will automatically return to
the center position and turn off the turn signals
at the same time. If either turn signal indicator
light blinks more rapidly than usual, goes on but
does not blink, or does not go on at all, there is
a malfunction in the system. Check for a burned-
out fuse or bulb or see your Hyundai dealer.

Lane Change Signal
