!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is run- ning, serious engine damage may result. The oil pressure warninglight comes on whenever there is insufficient oil pressure. In normal operation, it should come on whenthe ignition switch is turned on, then go out when the engine is started. If the oil pressure warninglight stays on while the engine is running, there may be a serious malfunction. If this happens, stop the car assoon as it is safe to do so, turn off the engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill the engine oilto the proper level and start the engine again. If the light stays on with the engine running, turn theengine off immediately. In any in- stance where the oil light stays on when the engine is running, theengine should be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer before the car is driven again.
Warning Light Operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning light should come on when theparking brake is applied and the igni- tion switch is turned to "ON" or "START". After the engine is started,the light should go out when the park- ing brake is released. If the parking brake is not applied, thewarning light should come on when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START", then go out when the enginestarts. If the light comes on at any other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safelocation off the roadway. The brake warning light indicates that the brake fluid level in the brake mas-ter cylinder is low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added. Afteradding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should be immediately and carefully driven to a Hyundai dealer forinspection. If further trouble is experi- enced, the vehicle should not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by aprofessional towing service or some other safe method.

C190C03S-GAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to fed-eral and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating cor- rectly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent main- tenance due to the additional load.See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-5.
CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake sys- tem directly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep
grades (in excess of 12%) payclose attention to the engine cool- ant temperature gauge to ensure the engine does not overheat. Ifthe needle of the coolant tem- perature gauge moves across the dial towards "H" (HOT), pull overand stop as soon as it is safe to do so, and allow the engine to

C180A01A-AAT USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean.When driving during the day in condi- tions of poor visibility, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low beam.This enables you to be seen as well as to see. C190A02A-GAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your Province Department of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements.Since laws vary from province to prov- ince, the requirements for towing trail- ers, cars, other types of vehicles, orapparatus may differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing. C190B01S-AAT Trailer Hitches Select the proper hitch and ball combi- nation, making sure that it's location iscompatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. Use a quality non-equalizing hitch whichdistributes the tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. The hitch should be bolted securely to the car and installed by a qualified technician. DO NOT USE A HITCHDESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY IN- STALLATION AND NEVER USE ONE THAT ATTACHES ONLY TO THEBUMPER.

OIL PRESSURE
WARNING LIGHT
!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure light illuminates
when the engine is running, an in-
sufficient oil pressure level for con-
tinued safe operation of the engine
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 immediately
and check the engine oil level. If the
level is insufficient, add the required amount of oil as indicated by the
engine oil dipstick. If the light fails to
extinguish when the engine is re-
started, do not continue to operate
the vehicle.
If the oil pressure light illuminates
during normal operation and the
cause is not an insufficient oil level,
or the light fails to illuminate when
the ignition is turned "on", contact
the nearest Hyundai dealer before
further operating the vehicle.

The parking brake/brake fluid level warn-
ing light will be illuminated whenever
the ignition switch is turned to the "ON"
position irrespective of whether or not
the parking brake is applied and must
be extinguished when the engine starts
and the parking brake released.
If the warning light fails to extinguish or
illuminates at any other time, the ve-
hicle must be brought to rest in a safe
location and the level of brake fluid in
the 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
dealer must be sought before the ve-
hicle is driven again.
Your Hyundai is equipped with a diago-
nally split dual braking system which
will ensure that in the event of one of the
brake circuits becoming defective, ap-
proximately fifty per cent of the normal
braking performance will be available.
If 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
WARNING:
In the event of problems being sus-
pected with the braking system, the
advice of the nearest Hyundai dealer
must be sought before the vehicle is
driven. Driving the vehicle with ei-
ther an electrical or hydraulic brak-
ing system defect may be danger-
ous, resulting in accident or per-
sonal injury.
