Features of your vehicle
Malfunction indicator light
(MIL) (check engine light)
ESC indicator (Electronic
CAUTION
Stability Control)
Prolonged
driving
with
the
Malfunction Indicator Light illumi-
nated  may cause  damage to  the
emission  control systems  which
could effect drivability and/or fuel
economy.
The  ESC indicator  will  illuminate  when
the  ignition   switch  is   turned  ON,  but
should go  off after approximately  3 sec-
onds. When  the  ESC is  on, it  monitors
the driving conditions. Under normal driv-
ing conditions,  the ESC light  will remain
off.  When a slippery or  low traction con-
dition is encountered, the  ESC will oper-
ate,  and the  ESC  indicator will  blink  to
indicate the ESC is operating.
The  ESC  indicator  stays  on  when  the
ESC may  have a malfunction. Take your
car  to  an  authorized  HYUNDAI  dealer
and have the system checked.
This indicator  light is  part of the  Engine
Control  System which  monitors  various
emission control  system  components. If
this light illuminates  while driving, it indi-
cates  that  a  potential  malfunction  has
been  detected somewhere  in the  emis-
sion control system.
This  light  will also  illuminate  when  the
ignition switch  is turned to  the ON  posi-
tion,  and  will go  out  in  a  few seconds
after the engine is started. If it illuminates
while driving, or does not illuminate when
the  ignition switch  is  turned  to  the ON
position, take  your vehicle  to your near-
est   authorized   HYUNDAI  dealer   and
have the system checked.
If the  Malfunction Indicator  Light
illuminates   or   blinks,  potential
catalytic   converter    damage   is
possible.This  could result in loss
of engine power. Have the Engine
Control    System   inspected    as
soon  as  possible  by  an  author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
ESC OFF indicator
Generally, your vehicle will continue to be
drivable, but have the system checked by
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer promptly.
The  ESC  OFF  indicator  will  illuminate
when  the  ignition switch  is  turned  ON,
but  should go  off  after approximately  3
seconds. To  switch to  ESC  OFF mode,
press  the  ESC  OFF  button.  The  ESC
OFF  indicator  will   illuminate  indicating
the ESC is deactivated.
