1 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 68 B290A01MC-AAT Engine Coolant Temperature Indicator Light (If Installed) NOTE: If the red engine coolant temperature indicator light illuminates, it indicates overheating that may damage the engine. B900A01A-AAT LIGHTS ON WARNING SOUND The warning chime sounds when the tail lights are on and the driver side door is open. This prevents the battery from discharging by warning you when the car is left with the tail lights on. The chime sounds until the tail lights are turned off. !

Wait until the engine is cool before removing the radiator cap. These indicator lights show the temperature of the engine coolant when the ignition switch is ON.
