What to do in an emergency
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
If your temperature gauge indicates over-
heating, you experience a loss of power
or knocking, the engine is probably too
hot. If this happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it
is safe to do so.
2. Place the shift lever in P (automatic
transaxle / Continuously Variable
Transaxle / Dual clutch transmission)
or neutral (manual transaxle) and set
the parking brake. If the air condition-
ing is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out under
the car or steam is coming out from
the bonnet, stop the engine. Do not
open the bonnet until the coolant has
stopped running or the steaming has
stopped. If there is no visible loss of
engine coolant and no steam, leave
the engine running and check to be
sure the engine cooling fan is operat-
ing. If the fan is not running, turn the
engine off.4. With the engine turned off, check to
see if the water pump drive belt is
missing. If it is not missing, check to
see that it is tight. If the drive belt
seems to be satisfactory, check for
coolant leaking from the radiator,
hoses or under the car. (If the air con-
ditioning had been in use, it is normal
for cold water to be draining from it
when you stop.)
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or engine coolant is leaking out, stop
the engine immediately and call the
nearest authorised HYUNDAI dealer
for assistance.6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine tem-
perature has returned to normal. Then,
if coolant has been lost, carefully add
coolant to the reservoir to bring the
fluid level in the reservoir up to the
halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for
further signs of overheating. If over-
heating happens again, call an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer for assistance.
WARNING
Whilst the engine is running, keep
hair, hands and clothing away from
moving parts such as the fan and
drive belts to prevent injury.
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. This can
allow coolant to be blown out of the
opening and cause serious burns.
CAUTION
• Serious loss of coolant indicates
there is a leak in the cooling sys-
tem and this should be checked
as soon as possible by an autho-
rised HYUNDAI dealer.
• When the engine overheats from
low engine coolant, suddenly
adding engine coolant may cause
cracks in the engine. To prevent
damage, add engine coolant
slowly in small quantities.

Maintenance
Engine compartment precautions
(Diesel engine)
• Follow the safety tips provided below,
when you are checking the engine bay
whilst the engine is running.
- Do not touch the injector, injector
wirings, and the engine computer
whilst the engine is running.
- Do not remove the injector connector
whilst the engine is running.
- People using pacemakers must not
go near the engine whilst the engine
is starting or running.
WARNING- Maintenance
work
• Performing maintenance work on
a vehicle can be dangerous. You
can be seriously injured whilst
performing some maintenance
procedures. If you lack sufficient
knowledge and experience or the
proper tools and equipment to do
the work, have it done by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer.
• Working under the bonnet 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. Therefore, if you
must run the engine whilst work-
ing under the bonnet, make cer-
tain that you remove all jewelry
(especially rings, bracelets,
watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar
loose clothing before getting
near the engine or cooling fans.
WARNING- Diesel Engine
Never work on injection system
with engine running or within 30
seconds after shutting off engine.
High-pressure pump, rail, injectors
and high-pressure pipes are sub-
ject to high pressure even after the
engine stopped. The fuel jet pro-
duced by fuel leaks may cause seri-
ous injury, if it touches the body.
People using pacemakers should
not move within 30cm of the ECU or
wiring harness within the engine
room whilst engine is running, high
currents used in the electronic
engine control system produce
considerable magnetic fields.
CAUTION
• 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 authorised 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 bat-
tery "-" terminal. You may get an
electric shock from the electric
current.
• When you remove the interior
trim cover with a flat head (-) driv-
er, be careful not to damage the
cover.
• Be careful when you replace and
clean bulbs to avoid burns or
electrical shock.

Maintenance
Vapour hose and fuel filler cap
The vapour hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those intervals
specified in the maintenance schedule.
Make sure that a new vapour hose or fuel
filler cap is correctly replaced.
Vacuum crankcase ventilation
hoses (if equipped)
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence
of heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard
and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts,
abrasions, and excessive swelling indi-
cate deterioration. Particular attention
should be paid to examine those hose
surfaces nearest to high heat sources,
such as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that
the hoses do not come in contact with
any heat source, sharp edges or moving
component which might cause heat dam-
age or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and cou-
plings, to make sure they are secure, and
that no leaks are present. Hoses should
be replaced immediately if there is any
evidence of deterioration or damage.
Air cleaner filter
A Genuine HYUNDAI air cleaner filter is
recommended when the filter is
replaced.
Spark plugs (for petrol engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs of
the correct heat range.
Valve clearance (Petrol 1.6L)
Inspect excessive valve noise and/or
engine vibration and adjust if necessary.
An authorised HYUNDAI dealer should
perform the operation.
Cooling system
Check cooling system components, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule.
WARNING
Do not disconnect and inspect
spark plugs when the engine is hot.
You may burn yourself.

Maintenance

ENGINE COOLANT
The high-pressure cooling system has a
reservoir filled with year-round antifreeze
coolant. The reservoir is filled at the fac-
tory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at the
beginning of the winter season, and
before travelling to a colder climate.Checking the coolant level
WARNING
Removing radiator
cap
• Never attempt to remove the radi-
ator cap whilst the engine is
operating or hot. Doing so might
lead to cooling system and
engine damage and could result
in serious personal injury from
escaping hot coolant or steam.
• Turn the engine off and wait until
it cools down. Use extreme care
when removing the radiator cap.
Wrap a thick towel around it, and
turn it counterclockwise slowly to
the first stop. Step back whilst
the pressure is released from the
cooling system. When you are
sure all the pressure has been
released, press down on the cap,
using a thick towel, and continue
turning counterclockwise to
remove it.
(Continued)
WARNING
The electric motor (cool-
ing fan) is controlled by
engine coolant tempera-
ture, refrigerant pres-
sure and vehicle speed.
It may sometimes 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 rotat-
ing fan blades. As the engine
coolant temperature decreases, the
electric motor will automatically
shut off. This is a normal condition.
If your vehicle is equipped with
GDI, the electric motor (cooling fan)
may operate until you disconnect
the negative battery cable.
(Continued)
• Even if the engine is not operat-
ing, do not remove the radiator
cap or the drain plug whilst the
engine and radiator are hot. Hot
coolant and steam may still blow
out under pressure, causing seri-
ous injury.
CAUTION
• Do not drive with no engine
coolant. It may cause water pump
failure and engine seizure, etc.
• When the engine overheats from
low engine coolant, suddenly
adding engine coolant may cause
cracks in the engine. To prevent
damage, add engine coolant
slowly in small quantities.

725
Maintenance
Check the condition and connections of
all cooling system hoses and heater
hoses. Replace any swollen or deterio-
rated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between F and L marks on the side of the
coolant reservoir when the engine is
cool.If the coolant level is low, add enough
distilled (deionized) or soft water.
Bring the level to F, but do not overfill. If
frequent additions are required, see an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer for a cooling
system inspection.
To add coolant follow the below steps:
(Petrol Engine only)
1. Open the cap.
2. Pull the sliding neck up and turn it in
the direction of the arrow to fix it in
place.
3. Add coolant.
