and distance to empty values may
vary significantly based on driving
conditions, driving habits, and condi-
tion of the vehicle.
• The distance to empty value is an esti-
mate of the available driving distance.
This value may differ from the actual
driving distance available.

Parking brake & brake fluid
warning light
Parking brake warning
This light is illuminated when the parking
brake is applied with the engine
start/stop button in the ON position. The
warning light should go off when the
parking brake is released while the
engine is running.
The parking brake warning chime will
sound to remind you that the parking
brake is applied when you are driving
above 10 km/h (6 mph). Always release
the parking brake before you drive.
Low brake fluid level warning
If the warning light remains on, it may
indicate that the brake fluid level in the
reservoir is low.
If the warning light remains on:
1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe
location and stop your vehicle.
2. With the engine stopped, check the
brake fluid level immediately and add
fluid as required. Then check all brake
components for fluid leaks.3. Do not drive the vehicle if leaks are
found, the warning light remains on or
the brakes do not operate properly.
Have the vehicle towed to any author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer for a brake sys-
tem inspection and necessary repairs.
Your vehicle is equipped with dual-diago-
nal 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 vehicle will not stop in as
short a distance with only a portion of the
brake system working. If the brakes fail
while you are driving, shift to a lower gear
for additional engine braking and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
To check bulb operation, check whether
the parking brake and brake fluid warning
light illuminates when the engine start/
stop button is in the ON position.
Low tire pressure
telltale (if equipped)
The low tire pressure telltale comes on
for 3 seconds after the engine start/stop
button is turned to the ON position.
If the warning light does not come on, or
continuously remains on after coming on
for about 3 seconds when you turned the
engine start/stop button to the ON posi-
tion, the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System is not working properly. If this
occurs, have your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
These warning lights will also illuminate if
one or more of your tires are significantly
under-inflated. You should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible. If
the warning lights illuminate while driv-
ing, reduce vehicle speed immediately
and stop the vehicle. Avoid hard braking
and overcorrecting at the steering wheel.
Inflate the tires to the proper pressure as
indicated on the vehicle’s tire information
placard.
WARNING
Driving the vehicle with a warning
light on is dangerous. If the brake
warning light remains on, have the
brakes checked and repaired imme-
diately by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.

Features of your vehicle
Low tire pressure position indicator
(if equipped)
If one or more of your tires are signifi-
cantly under-inflated, this indicator indi-
cates which tire is significantly under-
inflated by illuminating the corresponding
position light.
TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
malfunction indicator
(if equipped)
The TPMS malfunction indicator comes
on for 3 seconds after the engine
start/stop button is turned to the ON posi-
tion. If the warning light does not come
on, or continuously remains on after
coming on for about 3 seconds when you
turned the engine start/stop button to the
ON position, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System is not working proper-
ly. If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
The warning light also comes on and
stays on when there is a problem with the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
If this happens, the system may not mon-
itor the tire pressure. Have the system
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING - Low tire pres-
sure
Significantly low tire pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and can
contribute to loss of vehicle control
and increased braking distances.
Continued driving on low pressure
tires will cause the tires to overheat
and fail.

ing conditions and under normal driving
conditions, the ESP light will remain off.
When a slippery or low traction condition
is encountered, the ESP will operate,
and the ESP indicator will blink to indi-
cate the ESP is operating.
CAUTION

Malfunction Indicator Light illumi-
nated may cause damage to the
emission control systems which
could effect drivability and/or fuel
economy.
CAUTION
If the Malfunction Indicator Light
illuminates, potential catalytic con-
verter damage is possible which
