WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
!
B260B01A-AAT
SRS (AIRBAG) SERVICE RE-
MINDER INDICATOR (SRI)
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) comes
on and flashes for about 6 seconds after the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position or
after the engine is started, after which it will go
out.
This light also comes on when the SRS is not
working properly. If the SRI does not come on,
or continuously remains on after flashing for
about 6 seconds when you turned the ignition
key to the "ON" position or started the engine,
or if it comes on while driving, have the SRS
inspected by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.
B260P02Y-GAT
ABS SERVICE REMINDER IN-
DICATOR (SRI) (If Installed)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the
Anti-Lock Brake System SRI will come on and
then go off in a few seconds. If the ABS SRI
remains on, comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the key is turned to the "ON"
position, this indicates that there may be a
problem with the ABS.
If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by
your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. The
normal braking system will still be operational,
but without the assistance of the anti-lock brake
system.
WARNING:
If both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/Brake fluid
level warning lights remain "ON" or come on
while driving, there may be a problem with
E.B.D. (Electronic Brake Force Distribution).
If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have
your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer
as soon as possible.

TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR
LIGHTS
The blinking green arrow on the instrument
panel shows the direction indicated by the turn
signals. If the arrow comes on but does not
blink, blinks more rapidly than normal, or does
not blink at all, a malfunction in the turn signal
system is indicated. Your dealer should be con-
sulted for repairs.
