BRAKE PAD WEAR WARNING
SOUND
The front disc brake pads have wear indicators
that should make a high-pitched squealing or
scraping noise when new pads are needed. The
sound may come and go or be heard all the time
when the vehicle is moving. It may also be
heard when the brake pedal is pushed down
firmly. Expensive rotor damage will result if the
worn pads are not replaced. See your Hyundai
dealer immediately.

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.

B740D01A-AAT
Operation Tips
o If the interior of the car is hot when you first
get in, open the windows for a few minutes to
expel the hot air.
o When you are using the air conditioning
system, keep all windows closed to keep hot
air out.
o When moving slowly, as in heavy traffic, shift
to a lower gear. This increases engine speed,
which in turn increases the speed of the air
conditioning compressor.
o On steep grades, turn the air conditioner off
to avoid the possibility of the engine over-
heating.
o During winter months or in periods when the
air conditioner is not used regularly, run the
air conditioner once every month for a few
minutes. This will help circulate the lubri-
cants and keep your system in peak operat-
ing condition.
