!WARNING:
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!
o Do not install a child restraint sys- tem in the front passenger seatposition. A child restraint system mustnever be placed in the front seat. The infant or child could be se- verely injured by an airbag de-ployment in case of an accident. o Modification to SRS components
or wiring, including the addition of any kind of badges to the pad covers or modifications to the bodystructure, can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to possible injury.
o For cleaning the airbag pad cov- ers, use only a soft, dry cloth orone which has been moistenedwith plain water. Solvents or clean- ers could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deploy-ment of the system.
o No objects should be placed over
or near the airbag modules on thesteering wheel, instrument panel, and the front passenger's panel above the glove box, because anysuch object could cause harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to cause the airbags toinflate.
o If the airbags inflate, they must be
replaced by a Hyundai authorisedrepairer.
B240C01NF-EAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and so there are no parts you can safelyservice by yourself. If the SRS SRI (Service Reminder Indicator) does not come on, or continuously remains on,have your vehicle immediately in- spected by your Hyundai authorised repairer. Any work on the SRS system, such as removing, installing, repairing, or anywork on the steering wheel must be performed by a qualified Hyundai tech- nician. Improper handling of the SRSsystem may result in serious personal injury.

In case thislight goes out before you start the en- gine, you must turn to the "LOCK" position and restart the engine. In casethis light blinks for five seconds when the ignition key is turned to "ON" posi- tion, this indicates that the immobilisersystem is out of order. At this time, consult to the Hyundai authorised re- pairer.SB210M1-E Charging System Warning Light

SB210K1-E Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure warning light illu- minates when the engine is running, an insufficient oil pressure level for continued safe operation of the en-gine exists. Continued operation of the engine in this condition may result in serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the light will illuminate when the igni- tion is turned "on" and will be extin- guished when the engine is started.If the oil pressure warning light illu- minates whilst the engine is run- ning, stop the engine immediatelyand check the engine oil level.

B260N02A-EAT Malfunction Indicator
Light (Not all models)
This light illuminates when there is a malfunction of an exhaust gas relatedcomponent, and the system is not func- tioning properly so that the exhaust gas regulation values are not satisfied. Thislight will also illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to the "ON" position, and then it will go out in a few secondsafter the engine is started.

B260H01GK-EAT
Parking Brake/ Low Brake Fluid LevelWarning LightIf failure of one of the circuits occurs, the required amount of pedal effort,pedal travel and stopping distance will be increased. Use of the gearbox is recommended to assist in bringing thevehicle to rest. The vehicle must not be driven once brake failure has occurred until the system has been repaired andis functioning normally. The braking system employs a vacuum servo in order that the pedal efforts arereduced. Power for the servo is derived from the engine and therefore, in the event of the engine stopping or thevehicle being towed, pedal efforts will be substantially increased.
WARNING:
In the event of problems being sus-pected with the braking system, the advice of the nearest Hyundaiauthorised repairer must be sought before the vehicle is driven. Driving the vehicle with either an electricalor hydraulic braking system defect may be dangerous, resulting in acci- dent or personal injury. Warning light operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warn- ing light will be illuminated wheneverthe ignition switch is turned to the "ON" or "START" position when the parking brake is applied and must be extin-guished in a three seconds after the engine starts. If the warning light fails to extinguish orilluminates at any other time, the ve- hicle must be brought to rest in a safe location and the level of brake fluid inthe reservoir checked. If the fluid level is incorrect, fluid conforming
to DOT 3
or DOT 4 specifications should be added. If, after correcting the brake fluid level, the warning light continues to be illumi-
nated, the advice of the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer must be sought be-
fore the vehicle is driven again.The Hyundai Coupe is equipped with adiagonally split dual braking system which will ensure that in the event of one of the brake circuits becomingdefective, approximately fifty per cent of the normal braking performance will be available.

B260P02Y-EAT ABS Service Reminder
Indicator (SRI)

If the ABS SRI remains on, comes on whilst 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 vehiclechecked by your Hyundai authorised repairer as soon as possible. The nor- mal braking system will still be opera-tional, but without the assistance of the anti-lock brake system.
WARNING:
If both the ABS SRI and Parking Brake/Brake fluid level warning lightsremain "ON" or come on whilst driv- ing, there may be a problem with E.B.D (Electronic Brake Force Distri-bution). If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai authorised repaireras soon as possible.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
SB210S1-E BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR The front brake disc pads are fitted with an audible wear indicator whichwill cause a high pitched noise to be emitted when the remaining amount of friction lining is below the specifiedvalue. When the wear indicator is heard, the brake pads should be replaced without delay to avoid damage occur-ring to the brake discs and a severe reduction in braking efficiency. SB215A2-E FUEL GAUGE The fuel gauge indicates the quantity of fuel remaining in the fuel tank. NOTE:
o The fuel gauge is not intended to
give other than an approximate indication of the fuel level and isunsuitable for the purposes of cal- culating fuel consumption figures.
o The "
" symbol means the fuel
filler flap is placed on the left side of the vehicle. B290A02A-EAT COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The engine cool- ant is under pressure and could erupt and cause severe burns. Waituntil the engine is cool before re- moving the radiator cap.

SB220A1-E Turn Signal Operation To signal an intention to turn right, the switch lever should be pressed down. To signal an intention to turn left, the switch lever should be pushed upwards.In both instances, the turn signal lights and the instrument cluster warning light will flash. Upon completion of the ma-noeuvre, the lever will, under normal circumstances, return to the "OFF" position. However, if the manoeuvreinvolved only a small movement of the steering wheel, the signal may need to be cancelled manually. If either turnsignal indicator flashes more rapidly than normal or refuses to flash at all, a malfunction of the turn signal systemmay exist. SB220B1-E Lane Change Signal To indicate an intention to change lanes, moving the lever slightly towards the direction of the relevant turn signal will cause the turn signal lights to flash.When the lever is released, it will return to the "OFF" position.B340C05FC-EAT LIGHTING SWITCH The vehicle sidelights and headlights are operated by rotating the end of the turn signal switch barrel. To operate theside lights, rotating the switch to the first detent with ignition switch at the "OFF" position will cause the lights toilluminate. To operate the headlights, the turn signal switch barrel should be rotated to the second detent. The head-lights will only operate when the ignition switch is at the "ON" position. If the ignition switch is turned to the "OFF"position, only the side lights will func- tion.
