stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as

gine braking and stop the car as soon as it is
safe to do so.

CHARGING SYSTEM
WARNING LIGHT
The charging system warning light should come
on when the ignition is turned on, then go out
when the engine is running. If the light stays on
while the engine is running, there is a malfunc-
tion in the electrical charging system. If the light
comes on while you are driving, stop, turn off
the engine and check under the hood. First,
make certain the generator drive belt is in
place. If it is, check the tension of the belt. Do
this as shown on page 6-16 by pushing down
on the center of the belt. And then have the
system checked by your Hyundai dealer.

ABS Service Reminder Indicator
(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
problem with the ABS.
FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by
your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. The
normal braking system will still be operational,
but without the assistance of the anti-lock brake
system.
CAUTION:
If the 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 distri-
bution).
If this occurs, avoid sudden stops and have
your vehicle checked by your Hyundai dealer
as soon as possible.

Door Ajar Warning Light
and Chime (If installed)
The door ajar warning light warns you that a
door is not completely closed and the chime
warns you that the key is in the ignition switch.
NOTE :
The warning chime only sounds whenever
the key is in the ignition switch and the
driver's side front door is open simulta-
neously. The chime sounds until the key is
removed from the ignition switch.

LOW FUEL LEVEL
WARNING LIGHT
The low fuel level warning light comes on when
the fuel tank is approaching empty. When it
comes on, you should add fuel as soon as
possible. Driving with the fuel level warning light
on or with the fuel level below "E" can cause the
engine to misfire and damage the catalytic
converter.
B260N01A-AAT
Malfunction Indicator Light
This light illuminates when there is a malfunc-
tion of an exhaust gas related component, and
the system is not functioning properly so that
the exhaust gas regulation values are not sat-
isfied. This light will also illuminate when the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, and
will go out in a few seconds. If it illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, take
your car to your nearest authorized Hyundai
dealer and have the system checked.

SRS (AIRBAG) SERVICE
REMINDER INDICATOR (SRI)
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) comes
on and flashes for about 6 seconds after the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position or after
the engine is started, after which it will go out.
This light also comes on when the SRS is not
working properly. If the SRI does not come on,
or continuously remains on after flashing for
about 6 seconds when you turned the ignition
key to the "ON" position or started the engine,
or if it comes on while driving, have the SRS
inspected by an authorized Hyundai Dealer.
