Hyundai i30 (PD): Warning and indicator lights / Charging System Warning Light. Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light. Low Fuel Level Warning Light

Charging System Warning Light

This warning light illuminates:

• When there is a malfunction with either the alternator or electrical charging system.

If there is a malfunction with either the alternator or electrical charging system:

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

2. Turn the engine off and check the alternator drive belt for looseness or breakage.

If the belt is adjusted properly, there may be a problem in the electrical charging system.

In this case, we recommend that you have the vehicle inspected by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer as soon as possible.

Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light

This warning light illuminates:

• When the engine oil pressure is low. If the engine oil pressure is low:

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

2. Turn the engine off and check the engine oil level (For more details, refer to “Engine Oil” in chapter 7).

If the level is low, add oil as required. If the warning light remains on after adding oil or if oil is not available, we recommend that you have the vehicle inspected by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer as soon as possible.

NOTICE

• If the engine does not stop immediately after the Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light is illuminated, severe damage could result.

• If the warning light stays on whilst the engine is running, it indicates that there may be serious engine damage or malfunction. In this case:

1. Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

2. Turn off the engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, fill the engine oil to the proper level.

3. Start the engine again. If the warning light stays on after the engine is started, turn the engine off immediately. In this case, we recommend that you have the vehicle inspected by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
