spection. If further trouble is experienced, the
vehicle should not be driven at all but taken
to a dealer by a professional towing service or
some other safe method.
Your Hyundai is equipped with dual-diagonal
braking systems. This means you still have
braking on two wheels even if one of the dual
systems should fail. With only one of the dual
systems 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 half of the brake
system working. If the brakes fail while you
are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional
engine 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 malfunction in the electrical charging sys-
tem. If the light comes on while you are
driving, stop, turn off the engine and check
under the hood. First, make certain the gen-
erator drive belt is in place. If it is, check the
tension of the belt. Do this as shown on page
6-12 by pushing down on the center of the
belt. And then have the system checked by
your Hyundai dealer.

Tail gate Open Warning Light
This light remains on unless the tail gate is
completely closed.

Door Ajar Warning Light
and Chime
The door ajar warning light warns you that a
door is not completely closed and the chime
warns you that driver's side front door is not
completely closed.
NOTE:
To remind you not to lock the key inside
the car, the warning light comes on when-
ever the key is in the "LOCK" position and
a door is open. The warning chime only
sounds whenever the key is in the "LOCK"
position and driver's side front door is
open. The chime sounds and the light
remains on until the key is removed from
the ignition.

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 dam-
age the catalytic converter.

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
satisfied. 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.
B260P02Y-GAT
ABS Service Reminder
Indicator (If installed)
When the key is turned to the "ON" position,
the Anti-Lock Brake System 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.
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
