G200B02HP-AAT Replacing Accessory Fuse The fuse box for the lights and other electrical accessories will be found lowon the dashboard on the driver's side. Inside the box you will find a list show- ing the circuits protected by each fuse.If any of your car's lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown fuse could be the reason. If thefuse has burned out, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has burned through. If you suspect a blownfuse, follow this procedure:
OMC045001
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use anything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amperagerating. Never use a piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious damage andcreate a fire hazard.

CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES
G200A01A-AAT Replacing a Fusible Link
OMC045003
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever over- loaded, thus preventing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This could becaused by a short in the system draw- ing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer de-termine the cause, repair the system and replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a fuse box for easyinspection.

4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing
a new fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repaired or replaced by a Hyundai dealer.
1. Turn off the ignition and all other
switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse bypulling it toward you (a small "fusepuller" tool is contained in the relay and fuse box of the engine room to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears tohave burned out.
G200B02MC
If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower rating from an acces- sory you can temporarily get alongwithout (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Always remember to replace the borrowed fuse.

urned out CAUTION:
A burned-out fuse indicates that there is a problem in the electrical circuit. If you replace a fuse and itblows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is serious and should be referred to a Hyun-dai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse with anything except a fuse with the same or alower amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and create a fire hazard. NOTE: See page 6-35 for the fuse panel descriptions.

CHECKING THE BATTERY
G210A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Batteries can be dangerous! When working with batteries, carefully ob-serve the following precautions to avoid serious injuries. The fluid in the battery contains a strong solution of sulfuric acid, which is poi- sonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or the car. If youdo spill battery fluid on yourself, imme- diately do the following:
OMC055018
G200C01CM-GAT Power Connector
NOTE:
o If the power connector is pulled
up from the fuse panel, the warn- ing chime, audio, clock and inte- rior lamps, etc., will not operate. The following items must be resetafter replacement. - Digital Clock - Trip computer
- Automatic heating and cooling control system
- Audio
o Even though the power connector is pulled up, the battery can stillbe discharged by operation of theheadlights or other electrical de- vices.
Your vehicle is equipped with a power connector to prevent battery discharge if your vehicle is parked without being operated for prolonged periods. Use thefollowing procedures before parking the vehicle for prolonged periods.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Turn off the headlights and tail lights.
3. Open the driver’s side panel cover
and pull up the power connector.
4. Insert the power connector in the
opposite direction.

o When lifting a plastic-cased bat-
tery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid to leak, resulting in personal injury.Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the bat-
tery when the battery cables areconnected.
o The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage.Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
!
G220B01A-AAT Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should come on automatically if the engine coolant tem-perature is high. G220C01TB-GAT Checking Condenser Cooling Fan When the air conditioning is in opera- tion, the condenser cooling fan comeson automatically to be controlled by ECU.G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant temper- ature decreases the fan will automat- ically shut off. This is a normal con-dition.
POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
G230A01MC-GAT (If Installed) The power steering fluid level should be checked regularly. To check the power steering fluid level,be sure the ignition is "OFF", then check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX"and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
H020A01A-GAT
(If Installed) ; For a gasoline engine
H020A01MC
The catalytic converter is part of the exhaust emission control system. Itspurpose is to remove certain engine emission products from the engine's exhaust. It looks something like amuffler and is located underneath the car in the exhaust system.
Catalytic Converter H020B01A-GAT
About the Catalytic Converter
Exhaust gases passing through the
catalytic converter cause it to operate at very high temperatures. As a re- sult, the introduction of large amountsof unburned gasoline may cause it to overheat and create a fire hazard. This can be avoided by observing thefollowing:
WARNING:
o Use unleaded fuel only.
o Maintain your engine in good condition. Extremely high con-verter temperatures can result from improper operation of the electrical, ignition or fuel injec-tion systems.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, takeyour car to your Hyundai dealer as soon as possible and have the difficulty corrected.
o Avoid driving with a very low fuel
level. If your run out of gasoline, it could cause the engine to mis- fire and result in excessive load- ing of the catalytic converter.
o Avoid idling the engine for peri-
ods longer than 10 minutes.
o Your Hyundai should not be ei- ther pushed or pulled to get itstarted. This can cause the cata-lytic converter to overload.
o Take care not to stop your Hyundai over any combustible material such as grass, paper, leaves or rags. As these materials couldcome in contact with the catalytic converter and could cause a fire.
o Do not touch the catalytic con- verter or any other part of theexhaust system while the en- gine is running as it is very hotand could result in burns.
o Remember that your Hyundai dealer is your best source of assistance.
