Features of your vehicle
Low brake vacuum pressure warning
(2.0 TGDI engine only, if equipped)
Low tire pressure
telltale
WARNING - Safe stopping
If  the warning  light  remains  on,  it may
indicate that the brake vacuum pump has
any problem. Therefore you should avoid
high speed  driving or  sudden stop,  and
you  should   depress   the  brake   pedal
deeper and harder than usual in braking.
Make  sure  to   have  the  brake  system
checked and  repaired  by an  authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•  The  TPMS  cannot   alert  you   to
severe  and  sudden tire  damage
caused by external factors.
•  If you  feel any vehicle  instability,
immediately take your foot off the
accelerator,   apply    the   brakes
gradually  and   with   light  force,
and slowly  move  to a  safe posi-
tion off the road.
The low  tire pressure  telltale illuminates
when one or more  of your tires is signifi-
cantly underinflated.
The  low tire  pressure telltale  will  illumi-
nate after it  blinks for approximately one
minute when there  is a problem with the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
If this  occurs, have  the system checked
by  an  authorized  HYUNDAI  dealer   as
soon as possible.
For details, refer to the TPMS on chapter
6.
WARNING
Continuous braking while driving
on  steep  or  long  downhill  may
cause  to   descend  the   vacuum
level in  brake booster  for a  time
and turn  on the  warning light. In
this  case,  shift  down the  trans-
mission. If  the warning  light illu-
minate   continuously,   stop   the
vehicle  in  the safe  location  and
wait until  the warning  light goes
off.
WARNING - Low tire pres-
sure
Significantly
low    tire   pressure
makes the vehicle unstable and can
contribute to loss of vehicle control
and increased braking distances.
Driving  the vehicle  with  a warn-
ing  light on  is  dangerous. If  the
brake  warning light  remains  on,
have   the  brakes   checked   and
Continued driving on tires with  low
pressure   will  cause   the  tires   to
overheat and fail.
