placing the ignition switch in the ON
position (do not start the engine).
Any light that does not illuminate
should be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
After starting the engine, check to
make sure that all warning lights are
off. If any are still on, this indicates asituation that needs attention.

When the active ECO is operating, the
ECO indicator is green.
For more detailed information, refer
to “Active ECO” in chapter 5.
Air bag warning light

approximately 6 seconds each time
you place the ignition switch in theON position. This light also comes on when the
Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) is not working properly. If the
AIR BAG warning light does not
come on, or continuously remains on
after operating for about 6 seconds
when you place the ignition switch in
the ON position or start the engine,
or if it comes on while driving, have

Anti-lock brake system(ABS) warning light
This light illuminates if the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position and
goes off in approximately 3 seconds if
the system is operating normally.
If the ABS warning light remains on,
comes on while driving, or does not
come on when the ignition switch isplaced to the ON position, this indi-
cates that there may be a malfunc-
tion with the ABS.
If this occurs, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer as soon as possible. The nor-
mal braking system will still be oper-
ational, but without the assistance of
the anti-lock brake system.
Electronic
brake force
distribution
(EBD) system
warning light
If these two warning lights illuminate
at the same time while driving, your
vehicle may have a malfunction withthe ABS and EBD system.
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
warning 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.
If both ABS and brake warning
lights are on and stay on, your
vehicle’s brake system will not
work normally. So you may expe-
rience an unexpected and dan-
gerous situation during sudden
braking. In this case, avoid highspeed driving and abrupt brak-
ing. Have your vehicle checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI deal-
er as soon as possible.
WARNING

Convenient features of your vehicle
Parking brake & brakefluid warning light
Parking brake warning
This light is illuminated when the
parking brake is applied with the igni-
tion switch in the START or ON posi-
tion. 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 6 mph (10 km/h). 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 authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for a brake system inspec-
tion and for repairs if necessary. Your vehicle is equipped with a dual-
diagonal braking system. This means
you still have braking on two wheels
even if one of the brake circuits is
damaged or malfunctions. With only
one of the circuits 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 brak-ing 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 posi-tion.
