ABS Service Reminder Indicator Light (If installed)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the Anti-Lock Brake System SRI will come on and then go off in a few seconds. If the ABS SRI remains on, comes on while driving, or does not come on when the key is turned to the "ON" position, this indicates that there may be a prob- lem with the ABS. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your 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. WARNING: If both ABS SRI and Parking Brake/Brake fluid level warning lights remain "ON" or come on while driving, there may be a prob-
lem with E.B.D. (Electronic Brake Force Dis- tribution). If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. B260F01A-AAT
High Beam Indicator Light
The high beam indicator light comes on when- ever the headlights are switched to the high beam or flash position.
B260D01A-AAT Turn Signal Indicator Lights
The blinking green arrows on the instrument 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 dealer should be con- sulted for repairs. B260G01A-AAT
Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
CAUTION: If the oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is running, serious engine damage may result. The oil pressure warning light comes on whenever there is insufficient oil pressure. In normal operation, it should come on when the ignition switch is turned on, then go out when the engine is started. If the oil pressure warning light stays on while the engine is running, there is a serious malfunction. If this happens, stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so, turn off the engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill engine oil to the proper level and start the engine again. If the light stays on with the engine running, turn the engine off immediately. In any in- stance where the oil light stays on when the engine is running, the engine should be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer before the car is driven again.B260C01A-AAT O/D OFF Indicator

Warning Light Operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warning light should come on when the parking brake is ap- plied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START". After the engine is started, the light should go out when the parking brake is re- leased. If the parking brake is not applied, the warning light should come on when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START", then go out when the engine starts. If the light comes on at any other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the road- way.

(Refer to "Do-lt-Yourself Maintenance") B265B01HP-GAT Brake Vacuum Warning Light(Diesel)
WARNING: If you suspect brake trouble, have your brakes checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. Driving your car with a problem in either the brake electrical system or brake hydraulic system is dangerous, and could result in serious injury or death. The brake vacuum warning light should come on when the vacuum level in brake booster descends to about 275 mmHg or below. The brake system is designed to stop the vehicle with reserve assist if brake pedal is held down. This reserve is greatly reduced each time you release the brake. Without vacuum assist your vehicle can still be stopped by pushing much harder on brake pedal, however the stopping distance may be much longer. If the light comes on at any other time, you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway.Water temperature
