tion of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it onyourself or the car. If you do spill battery fluid onyourself, immediately do the following:
o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medical assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and get medical assistanceas soon as possible. While you are beingdriven to get medical assistance, continueto rinse your eyes by using a sponge or softcloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk followed by milk ofmagnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetableoil. Get medical assistance as soon aspossible.
While batteries are being charged (either by abattery charger or by the vehicle's alternator),they produce explosive gases. Always observethese warnings to prevent injuries from occur-ring:
o Charge batteries only in a well ventilated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area. G210B01A-AAT

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
3-2 3. If coolant is running out under the car or
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.

Handling Spare Tyre
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.

Recommended Coolant
G050B01A
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50 mix with water. The coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Addi-tional corrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system must be main-tained with the correct concentration and typeof coolant to prevent freezing and corrosion.
NEVER allow the concentration of antifreeze to
exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% levelor damage to the coolant system may result.For proper concentration when adding or re-placing the coolant, refer to the following table.
Coolant concentration
ZG050C1-A
To Check the Coolant Level
G050C01A
The coolant level can be seen on the side of the
plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the cool- ant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL"lines on the reservoir. If the level is below the"LOW" mark, add coolant to bring it up between"LOW" and "FULL". If the level is low, inspectfor coolant leaks and recheck the fluid levelfrequently. If the level drops again, visit yourHyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosisof the reason. ZG050D2-A
To Change the Coolant
The coolant should be changed at those inter-vals specified in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5. NOTE: Coolant can damage the finish of your car. If you spill coolant on the car, wash it offthoroughly with clear water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and remove the radiator cap whencool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allowall the coolant to drain from the coolingsystem, then securely close the drain cock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then, followingthe manufacturer’s directions on the coolantcontainer, add the appropriate quantity ofcoolant to the radiator.
