for five seconds when the ignition key is
turned to the "ON" position, this indicates

start the engine using the limp home func-
tion (0, 1, 2, 3 as a sample password).NOTE:You can get a limp home password when

Turn Signal Indicator
Lights
The blinking green arrows on the instru-
ment panel show the direction indicated
by the turn signals. If the arrow comes on
but does not blink, blinks more rapidly than
normal, or does not illuminate at all, a
malfunction in the turn signal system is
indicated. Your Hyundai dealer should be
consulted for repairs.
!
B260P03Y-GAT
ABS Service Reminder
Indicator
When the key is turned to the "ON" position,
the Anti-Lock Brake System indicator will
illuminate and then go off in a few seconds.
If the ABS SRI remains on, illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when
the key is turned to the "ON" position, this
indicates that there may be a malfunction
with the ABS.
If this occurs, have your vehicle checked
by your Hyundai dealer as soon as pos-
sible. The normal braking system will still
be operational, but without the assistance
of the anti-lock brake system.
WARNING:
If both the ABS SRI and Parking Brake/
Brake fluid level warning lights remain
"ON" or come on while driving, there
may be a malfunction with E.B.D. (Elec-
tronic Brake Force Distribution).
If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and
have your vehicle checked by your
Hyundai dealer as soon as possible.
B265C03LZ-AAT
Electronic Stability
Control Indicator Lights
The electronic stability control indicators
change operation according to the ignition
switch position and whether the system is
in operation or not.
They will illuminate when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position, but should go
out after approximately three seconds. If
the ESC or ESC-OFF indicator stays on,
take your car to your authorized Hyundai
dealer and have the system checked. See
section 2 for more information about the
ESC.
B270A01O-AATBrake Pad Wear Warning SoundThe front and rear disc brake pads have
wear indicators that should make a high-
pitched squealing or scraping noise when
new pads are needed. The sound may
come and go or be heard all the time when
the vehicle is moving. It may also be heard
when the brake pedal is pushed down
firmly. Excessive rotor damage will result
if the worn pads are not replaced. See your
Hyundai dealer immediately.B260U02CM-AAT
Immobilizer WarningLight (If Installed)
This indicator light illuminates after the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position.
The light goes out after the engine is run-
ning or after 30 seconds. If this light blinks
for five seconds when the ignition key is
turned to "ON" position, this indicates that
the immobilizer system is not functioning
correctly. At this time, consult your Hyundai
dealer.

C160D01A-AATCheck Battery and CablesWinter puts additional burdens on the
battery system. Visually inspect the battery
and cables as described in Section 6. The
level of charge in your battery can be
checked by your Hyundai dealer or a ser-
vice station.
C160F01A-AATCheck Spark Plugs and Ignition
SystemInspect your spark plugs as described in
Section 6 and replace them if necessary.
Also check all ignition wiring and compo-
nents to be sure they are not cracked, worn
or damaged in any way.C160E01A-AATChange to "Winter Weight" Oil if
NecessaryIn some climates it is recommended that a
lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used
during cold weather. See Section 9 for
recommendations. If you aren't sure what
weight oil you should use, consult your
Hyundai dealer.
C160G01A-GATTo Keep Locks from FreezingTo keep the locks from freezing, squirt an
approved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the
key opening. If a lock is covered with ice,
squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to
remove the ice. If the lock is frozen inter-
nally, you may be able to thaw it out by
using a heated key. Handle the heated key
with care to avoid injury.NOTE:The proper temperature for using the
immobilizer key is from -40°F (-40°C) to
176°F (80°C). If you heat the immobilizer
key over 80°C to open the frozen lock, it
may cause damage to the transponder
in its head.
C160C01A-AATUse High Quality Ethylene Glycol
CoolantYour Hyundai is delivered with high qual-
ity ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system, lubricates
the water pump and prevents freezing. Be
sure to replace or replenish your coolant in
accordance with the maintenance sched-
ule in Section 5. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its freezing
point is sufficient for the temperatures an-
ticipated during the winter.

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYSD120A01CM-AATIf you lose your keys, many Hyundai deal-
ers can make you a new key if you have
your key number. If you lock the keys inside
your car and you cannot obtain a new key,
many Hyundai dealers can use special
tools to open the door for you.
Information about immobilizer keys (if in-
stalled) will be found on page 1-4.
