HYUNDAI dealer. Disconnect the jumper cables in the
exact reverse order you connectedthem:
1. Disconnect the jumper cable from
the black, negative () chassis
ground of your vehicle (4).
2. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the black, neg
ative () battery/chassis ground of
the assisting vehicle (3).
3. Disconnect the second jumper cable from the red, positive (+)
batter y/jumper terminal of the
assisting vehicle (2).

Maintenance
•Do not put heavy objects or apply
excessive force on top of the
engine cover (if equipped) or fuel
related parts.
•When you inspect the fuel system
(fuel lines and fuel injection
devices), we recommend that you
contact an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
•Do not drive long time with
the engine cover (if equipped)
removed.
•When checking the engine room,
do not go near fire. Fuel, washer
fluid, etc. are flammable oils that
may cause fire.
•Before touching the battery, igni
tion cables and electrical wiring,
you should disconnect the battery
"" terminal. You may get an elec
tric shock from the electric current.

NOTICE
Maintenance work
•Performing maintenance work
on avehicle can be dangerous.
You can be seriously injured
while performing some mainte
nance procedures. If you lack
sufficient knowledge and experi
ence or the proper tools and
equipment to do the work, we
recommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
•Working under the hood with the
engine running is dangerous. It
becomes even more dangerous
when you wear jewelry or loose
clothing. These can become
entangled in moving parts and
result in injury.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
Therefore, if you must run the
engine while working under the
hood, make certain that you
remove all jewelry (especially
rings, bracelets, watches, and
necklaces) and all neckties,
scarves, and similar loose cloth
ing before getting near the engine
or cooling fans.
Do not leave gloves, rags or any
other combustible material in the
engine compartment. Doing so
may cause a heatinduced fire.

Maintenance
Check the condition and connections
of all cooling system hoses and
heater hoses. Replace any swollen
or deteriorated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between F (Full) and L (Low)
marked on the side of the coolant
reservoir when the engine is cool. If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) water (except
Middle East) or add enough pre
mixed coolant (for Middle East).
Bring the level to F (Full), but do not
overfill. If frequent additions are
required, we recommend that the
system be inspected by an author
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
The electric motor
(cooling fan) is con
trolled by engine
coolant temperature,
refrigerant pressure
and vehicle speed. It may some
times operate even when the
engine is not running. Use
extreme caution when working
near the blades of the cooling fan
so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blades. As the engine
coolant temperature decreases,
the electric motor will automatical
ly shut off. This is a normal condi
tion.
The electric motor (cooling fan)
may operate until you disconnect
the negative battery cable.
