FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
This warning light shows the tempera-
ture of the engine coolant when the
ignition switch is ON. The warning light
illuminates if the temperature of the
engine coolant is above 123±3°C
(253.4±5.4°F).
If the warning light illuminates, pull over
and stop as soon as possible and turn
off the engine. Then open the hood and
check the coolant level (See "If the
engine overheats" on the page 3-4.) and
the water pump drive belt. If you sus-
pect cooling system trouble, have your
cooling system checked by a Hyundai
dealer as soon as possible.
NOTE:
If the engine coolant temperature
warning light illuminates, it indicates
overheating that may damage the
engine.
