Engine oil pressure warn-
ing
Engine oil level warning
light (Diesel engine,
if equipped)
CAUTION
If the oil pressure warning light
stays on while the engine is run-
ning, serious engine damage may
result. The oil pressure warning
light comes on whenever there is
insufficient oil pressure. In normal
operation, it should come on when
the ignition switch is turned on,
then go out when the engine is
started. If the oil pressure warning
light stays on while the engine is
running, there is a serious malfunc-
tion.
This warning light indicates the engine oil
pressure is low.
The engine oil level warning light illumi-
nates when the engine oil level should be
checked.
If the warning light illuminates while driv-
ing:
If the warning light comes on, check the
engine oil level as soon as possible and
add engine oil as required.
1.
Drive safely to the side of the road and
stop.
2.
With the engine off, check the engine
oil level. If the level is low, add oil as
required.
Slowly pour the recommended oil little by
little into a funnel. (Oil refill capacity :
approximately 0.6 ~ 1.0 l)
If the warning light remains on after
adding oil or if oil is not available, call an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to "Recommended lubricants and capac-
ities" in section 8.)
If this happens, stop the car as
soon as it is safe to do so, turn off
the engine and check the oil level. If
the oil level is low, fill the engine oil
to the proper level and start the
engine again. If the light stays on
with the engine running, turn the
engine off immediately. In any
instance where the oil light stays on
when the engine is running, the
engine should be checked by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer before
the car is driven again.
Do not overfill the engine oil to ensure
the oil level is not above F mark on the
dipstick.
CAUTION
If the engine is not stopped immedi-
ately after the engine oil pressure
warning light is illuminated, severe
damage could result.
✽ NOTICE
� If you travel approximately 50 km
after adding the engine oil, the warn-
ing light will go off.
� Cycle the ignition from OFF to ON 3
times within 10 seconds, the warning
light will go off immediately. However,
when you turn off the warning light
without adding the engine oil, the light
will come on again after traveling
approximately 50 km.
