Warning and indicator lights

Make sure that all warning lights are OFF after starting the vehicle. If any light is still ON, this indicates a situation that needs attention.

Ready indicator

This indicator illuminates:

When the vehicle is ready to be driven.

  • ON: Normal driving is possible.

  • OFF: Normal driving is not possible, or a problem has occurred.

  • Blinking: Emergency driving.

When the ready indicator goes OFF or blinks, there is a problem with the system. If this occurs, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Service warning light

This warning light illuminates:

  • When the Start/Stop button is in the ON position. It illuminates for about 3 seconds and then goes off.

  • When there is a problem with related parts of the electric vehicle control system, such as sensors, etc.

When the warning light illuminates while driving, or does not go OFF after starting the vehicle, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Power down indicator light

This indicator light illuminates:

When the power is limited for the safety of the high-powered parts of an electric vehicle. The power is limited for the following reasons.

  • The high voltage battery level is too low or voltage is decreasing.

  • The temperature of the high voltage battery is too high or too low.

  • The temperature of the motor is high.

  • Do not accelerate or start the vehicle suddenly when the Power Down indicator light is ON.

  • Your vehicle may not be driven, or may roll back on a slope with the indicator light ON due to the limitation of vehicle power.

Unless both the Service warning light and Power down indicator light illuminate at the same time, it is not a failure.

Charging connector indicator light

This warning light illuminates:

This warning light indicates the connection status of the charging connector. When the charging connector is connected to the vehicle, the green light illuminates for charging.

High voltage battery level warning light

This warning light illuminates:

When the high voltage battery level is low.

Charge the high voltage battery immediately.

    If the Airbag warning light remains illuminated while driving, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Regenerative brake warning light

This warning light illuminates:

When the regenerative brake does not operate and the brake does not perform well. This causes the Parking Brake warning light (red) and Regenerative Brake warning light (yellow) to illuminate simultaneously.

If this occurs, drive safely and we recommend that you have your vehicle inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

The operation of the brake pedal may be more difficult than normal and the braking distance may increase.

This warning light illuminates:

  • When the Start/Stop button is in the ON position. It illuminates for about 3 seconds and then goes off once the parking brake is released.

  • Whenever the parking brake is applied.

    • If the warning light illuminates with the parking brake released, it indicates the brake fluid level in the reservoir is low.

If the brake fluid level in the reservoir is low:

  1. Drive carefully to the nearest safe location and stop your vehicle.

  2. With the vehicle stopped, check the brake fluid level immediately and add fluid as required (For more information, refer to the "Brake fluid" section in chapter 9). After adding brake fluid, check all brake components for fluid leaks. If a brake fluid leak is found, or if the warning light remains on, or if the brakes do not operate properly, do not drive the vehicle. We recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Dual-diagonal braking system

Your vehicle is equipped with the dual-diagonal braking system. This means you still have braking on two wheels even if one of the dual systems should fails.

With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal travel and greater pedal force are required to stop the vehicle.

Also, the vehicle does not stop in a short distance if only a portion of the braking system is working.

If the parking brake warning light illuminates with the parking brake released, it indicates that the brake fluid level is low. We recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

    The hydraulic braking system still operates even if there is a malfunction with the ABS. If the ABS warning light remains illuminated while driving, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) System warning light

These two warning lights illuminate at the same time while driving:

When the ABS and brake system does not work normally.

If both the ABS warning light and the Parking Brake warning light remain illuminated while driving, we recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

When both ABS and Parking Brake warning lights are on, the braking system does not work normally and you may experience an unexpected and dangerous situation during sudden braking.

Avoid high speed driving and abrupt braking.

We recommend that your vehicle be inspected by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as possible.
