fitted with automatic transaxle ensure that the transaxle selector is at the "P" or"N"position.
2. Check the battery terminals and connec- tions to ensure that these are clean and alsotight.
3. If the ignition warning lamps dim when the engine is cranked and the battery terminalshave been checked, a discharged battery isindicated.
4. Do not attempt to push or tow start the vehicle, refer to "Jump Starting" for informa-tion regarding engine starting when the bat-tery is discharged.
DD020A1-E
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai
dealer with regard to the method of ignition andfuel system diagnosis.
CAUTION: If the engine refuses to start, no attempt
should be made to push or tow start the vehicle. Vehicles with automatic transaxleor fuel injection will not be able to be startedin this manner since no drive is transmittedthrough the automatic transaxle whilst theengine is not running, and in the case of fuelinjected derivatives, the fuel pump will notoperate under tow start conditions. In addi-tion, if the vehicle is equipped with an ex-haust catalyst, damage to the catalyst mayresult if the vehicle is tow started. ZD000A1-E

steam is coming out from under the bonnet stop the engine. Do not open the bonnetuntil the coolant has stopped running or thesteaming has stopped. If there is no visibleloss of coolant and no steam, leave theengine running and check to be sure theengine cooling fan is operating. If the fan isnot running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing, check to see thatit is tight. If the drive belt seems to besatisfactory, check for coolant leaking fromthe radiator, hoses or under the car. (If theair conditioner had been in use, it is normalfor cold water to be draining from it).
WARNING: While the engine is running, keep hands andclothing away from moving parts such asthe fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine imme-diately and call the nearest Hyundai dealerfor assistance.
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when theengine is hot since steam and boiling watermay be ejected from the radiator resulting inburns or scalding.
CAUTION:
Personal injury and damage to the vehicle
may occur if jump starting is not performedcorrectly. If any doubt exists as to how thisoperation should be performed, seek assis-tance from qualified personnel. WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric
acid and emit hydrogen gas. Protective cloth- ing should be worn and care exercised toprevent the acid from coming into contactwith skin or clothing and the vehicle. Nakedlights should not be permitted in the vicinityof the battery. Care should be exercised topreventsparks occurring during connection.If acid accidentally comes into contact withskin or eyes, the affected area should imme-diately be flushed with copious amounts ofwater and medical assistance sought.
1. Ensure that the booster battery is 12 volt type. If the booster battery is installed in another vehicle, ensure that the two vehi-cles are not touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equip- ment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the vehicle provid- ing the jump start is running prior to connec-tion of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+) terminal of the booster battery and theother end to the positive (+) terminal of thedischarged battery. 5. Attach the black jump cable to the negative
(-) terminal of the booster battery, and theother end to a ground point within the enginecompartment of the vehicle with the flat bat-tery. Do not connect to the negative batteryterminal of the flat battery since sparks maybe generated with the subsequent risk ofexplosion.
6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to 2,000 r.p.m. and start the engine of thevehicle with the flat battery.
7. Remove jump cables in the reverse order of installation (black cable first).
NOTE: If the jump cable is incorrectly installed, damage to the vehicle electrical system mayoccur, in particular the electronic compo-nents such as the Fuel Injection systemcomputer and the Automatic Transaxle com-puter. The battery must never be discon-nected whilst the engine is running. XD040A1-E
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS If the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic), or neutral (manual transaxle, semi- automatic transalxe) and set the parkingbrake. If the air conditioner is on, turn it off.

6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be
found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant hasbeen lost, carefully remove the radiator capand add water to bring the fluid level in thereservoir up to the base of the radiator fill
opening. Fill the coolant expansion tank tothe halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is established that the engine is operating normally. If theengine overheats repeatedly, the advice of aHyundai dealer should be sought.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is aleak in the cooling system and this shouldbe checked as soon as possible by a Hyundaidealer. 3. Passengers must not be allowed to remain
inside the vehicle during wheel changing. Ifa puncture occurs whilst the vehicle is on amotorway, the passengers should take ref-uge on the motorway embankment to avoidthe possibility of injury occurring should thevehicle be struck by other motorway traffic.
4. Wheel changing should be performed ac- cording to the following instructions.

F060A01A-AAT EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAIN-
TENANCE ITEMS
F060M01A-AAT
o Engine oil and filterThe engine oil and filter should be changed at
the intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. If the car is being driven in severe condi-tions, more frequent oil and filter changes arerequired.
F060B01A-AAT
o Drive belts Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts,
cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace if necessary. Drive belts should be checked periodically for proper tension andadjusted as necessary.
F060C01A-AAT
o Fuel filterA clogged filter can limit the speed at which the
vehicle may be driven, damage the emission system and cause hard starting. If an exces-sive amount of foreign matter accumulates in
the fuel tank, the filter may require replacementmore frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine for
several minutes, and check for leaks at theconnections. F060D01A-AAT
o Fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions for leakage and damage. Replace anydamaged or leaking parts immediately.
F060E01A-AAT
o Timing beltInspect all parts related to the timing belt for
damage and deformation. Replace any dam- aged parts immediately.
F060G01A-AAT
o Vapour hose and fuel filler capThe vapor 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 re-placed.
F060F01A-AAT
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence of
heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard andbrittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions,and excessive swelling indicate deterioration.Particular attention should be paid to examine
those hose surfaces nearest to high heat sourc-
es, such as the exhaust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure that the
hoses do not come in contact with any heatsource, sharp edges or moving component
which might cause heat damage or mechanicalwear. Inspect all hose connections, such as
clamps and couplings, to make sure they aresecure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses
should be replaced immediately if there is any
evidence of deterioration or damage.
F060H01A-AAT
o Air cleaner filter A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom-
mended when filter is replaced.
F060J01A-AAT
o Spark plugsMake sure to install new spark plugs of the
correct heat range.
F060N01X-GAT
o Valve clearances Incorrect valve clearance will not only result in
unsteady engine operation, but will also cause excessive noise and reduced engine perfor-mance. Inspect valve clearance and adjust asrequired while the engine is hot.
