Parking brake & brake
fluid warning
Parking brake warning
This light illuminates when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in
the START or ON position. The warning
light should go off when the parking
brake is released.
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 it towed to any authorized
HYUNDAI dealer for a brake system
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 car 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
car 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 ignition switch
is in the ON position.
EPB (Electric Parking
Brake) malfunction indica-tor
The EPB malfunction indicator will illumi-
nate when the ignition switch is turned
ON, but should go off after approximate-
ly 3 seconds. If the warning light does not
come on, or continuously remains on
take your vehicle to an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer and have the system
checked.
Also, the EPB malfunction indicator may
illuminate when the ESP indicator comes
on to indicate that the ESP is not working
properly, but if this occurs, it does not
indicate the EPB has malfunctioned.
For more details, refer to "EPB" in sec-
tion 5.
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
AUTO HOLD indicator (if equipped)
If you press the AUTO HOLD switch, the
AUTO HOLD indicator on the cluster
comes on white. And when you stop the
vehicle completely by pressing the brake
pedal, the indicator changes from white
to green.
If the AUTO HOLD malfunction indicator
lights up yellow, the AUTO HOLD is not
working properly. Take your vehicle to an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer and have
the system checked.
For more details, refer to “AUTO HOLD”
in section 5.
Anti-lock brake system
(ABS) warning light
This light illuminates if the ignition switch
is turned ON and goes off in approxi-
mately 3 seconds if the system is operat-
ing normally.
If the ABS warning light remains on,
comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the ignition switch 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 an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible. The normal braking
system will still be operational, but with-
out the assistance of the anti-lock brake
system.
Electronic brake
force distribution
(EBD) system
warning light
If two warning lights illuminate at the
same time while driving, your vehicle’s
ABS and EBD system may have mal-
functioned. In this case, your ABS and regular brake
system may not work normally. Have the
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If the ABS warning light or EBD warn-
ing light is on and stays on, the
speedometer or odometer/tripmeter
may not work. Also, the EPS warning
light may illuminate and the steering
effort may increase or decrease. In this
case, have your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
AUTO
HOLD
WARNING
If both ABS and Brake warning
lights are on and stay on, your vehi-
cle’s brake system will not work
normally. So you may experience
an unexpected and dangerous situ-
ation during sudden braking. In this
case, avoid high speed driving and
abrupt braking.
Have your vehicle checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.

the ignition switch is turned ON, but
should go off after approximately 3 sec-
onds. When the ESP is on, it monitors the
driving conditions. Under normal driving
conditions, the ESP indicator will remain
off. When a slippery or low traction con-
dition is encountered, the ESP will oper-
ate, and the ESP indicator will blink to
indicate the ESP is operating.
But, if the ESP system malfunctions the
indicator illuminates and stays on. Take

auto stop indicator on the cluster will
blink for 5 seconds.
For more details, refer to the ISG (Idle
Stop and Go) system in section 5.

cluster type B, the indicator illuminates
on the LCD display.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
When the engine automatically starts by
the ISG system, some warning lights
(ABS, ESP, ESP OFF, EPS or Parking
brake warning light) may turn on for a
few seconds.
This happens because of low battery
voltage. It does not mean the system is
malfunctioning.
SPORT indicator
(if equipped)
The SPORT indicator light will illuminate
when the SPORT button is pressed. The
indicator light turns off when the SPORT
button is pressed again.
For more details, refer to "Automatic
transaxle" in section 5.

The low tire pressure and position tell-
tales illuminates when one or more of
your tires is significantly underinflated.
The TPMS malfunction indicator will illu-
minate after it blinks for approximately
one minute when there is a problem with
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
If this occurs, have the system checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as
soon as possible.
For more details, refer to the TPMS in sec-
tion 6.
The low tire pressure position telltale illu-
minates on the LCD display.
WARNING - Safe stopping
The TPMS cannot alert you to severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors.
If you notice any vehicle instabili- ty, immediately take your foot off
the accelerator pedal, apply the
brakes gradually and with light
force, and slowly move to a safe
position off the road.
