Parking Brake/Low Brake Fluid
LevelWarningLight
The brake fluid level warning light indicates that
the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder
is low  and hydraulic brake fluid  conforming to
DOT  3  or  DOT  4  specifications   should  be
added. After adding fluid,  if no other trouble is
found, the car should be immediately and care-
fully driven to a  Hyundai dealer for inspection.
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,
shifttoalowergearforadditionalenginebraking
and stop the car as soon as it is  safe to do so.
B260J01A-AAT
ChargingSystemWarningLight
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 6-19 by pushing down on the center of
the belt. And then have the system checked by
your Hyundai  dealer.
!
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  sys-
tem  or brake  hydraulic system  is  danger-
ous, and could result  in a serious injury or
death.
WarningLightOperation
The parking brake/brake fluid level warning light
should  come  on  when  the  parking  brake is

leased.
