WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
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

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.

CORROSION PREVENTION & APPEARANCE CARE
4-2 Household detergents, solvents and abrasive
cleaning materials should not be used in order ot avoid damaging the paint film.
Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a
sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels should becleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent.Abrasive compounds must not be used since inthe event of these damaging the lacquer coat-ing, oxidisation of the aluminium wheel willoccur, spoiling the appearance.
The use of an a toothbrush will facilitate clean-
ing between the wheel "spokes". JE080A1-E
BUMPER MAINTENANCE
The special material from which the bumpersare manufactured warrants special attention topreserve the appearance of thebumpers. Avoidcontact with battery electrolyte or brake fluidand ensure that accidental spillages are imme-diately flushed with water. Do not use abrasive cleaning materials which may damage the bumpers. Avoid subjecting the bumpers to high tempera- tures such as may be encountered in high bakepaing ovens.
JE060A1-E
STAIN/SPOT REMOVAL Should tree sap, dead insects or tar prove to be
difficult to remove from the paint film, turpentineor a proprietary paint cutting compound may beused. Ensure that the area to be cleaned is notrubbed intensively to prevent breaking throughthe colour coat and exposing the under coat.
JE070A1-E
POLISHING The exterior paint work should be polished with
a proprietary wax polish when water no longercollects in bead form on the paint work. Theinstructions of the product manufacturer shouldbe adhered to. JE090A1-E
ACCIDENT REPAIRS In the event of the body work sustaining dam-age, the following points should be noted priorto repairs being undertaken. If body panels are replaced or repaired, anti corrosion treatment must be applied to therepair area. The product used must be compat-ible with those used in manufacture. It is recom-mended that repairs are entrusted to a Hyundaidealer to ensure that replacement parts usedare of the same high quality as those used inmanufacture of the vehicle and that the correctrepair methods and materials will ensure ade-quate levels of corrosion protection and thecontinued validity of the Anti Perforation War-ranty. JE100A1-E
SEAT BELTS
Seat belts should be cleaned only with a mildsoap solution. Strong detergents, solvens orbleaches may damage the belt webbing andtherefore reduce the effectiveness of the belt.Belts which display signs of fraying, wear of cutshould be replaced. JE110A1-E
INTERIOR VALETING
The soft trim and carpets should be maintained with the regular use of a vacuum cleaner. Heavysoiling should be removed with a dry cleaningagent recommended for this purpose followingthe instructions of the product manufacturer.Paint thinner, solvents or other such cleaningmaterials should not be used since damage tothe upholstery may result. JE120A1-E
WINDOWS
A proprietary glass cleaner should be used to clean the inside of the windows. However, therear heated windscreen must only be cleanedusing a light horizontal cleaning action. Careshould be exercised to avoid the use of abra-sive cleaners or contact with items of jewellerywhich may damage the heating elements.

CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES Replacing a Fusible Link
G200A01A
Bad
Good
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever overloaded, thus pre- venting damage to the entire wiring harness.(This could be caused by a short in the systemdrawing too much current.) If this ever happens,have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause,repair the system and replace the fusible link.The fusible links are located in a relay box foreasy inspection. CAUTION: When replacing a fusible link, never use anything but a new fusible link with thesame or lower amperage rating. Never use apiece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link.This could result in serious damage andcreate a fire hazard.

Water pump pulley
Generator 0.37 ~ 0.43 in. (9.5~11.0 mm) Crankshaft pulley
Drive belts should be checked periodically for proper tension and adjusted if necessary. At thesame time, belts should be examined for cracks,wear, fraying or other evidence of deteriorationand replaced if necessary. Belt routing should also be checked to be sure there is no interference between the belts andother parts of the engine. After a belt is re-placed, the new belt should be adjusted againafter two or three weeks to eliminate slackresulting from initial stretching after use.
ZG180A1-A
CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL CLEARANCE
SSA6180A
1.42 in. (36 mm)
You need a helper to check the brake pedal
clearance. With the engine running, have your helper press down on the brake pedal severaltimes and then hold it down with a force of about110 lbs (50 kg, 490 N). The brake pedal clear-ance is the distance from the top surface of thebrake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under thefloor mat.
If the brake pedal clearance is not within the
limits specified in the illustration, have it in-spected by your Hyundai dealer and adjustedor repaired if necessary.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric
acid which is corrosive and poisonous. Hy- drogen gas is emitted from the battery whichis explosive when combined with oxygen.The following precautions must be strictlyobserved to avoid personal injury or dam-age to the vehicle.
o If battery electrolyte is spilled onto skin or into eyes, the effected area must be flushed with copious amounts of water and medicalassistance sought. o If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious
amounts of water or milk followed by anantacid (raw egg or milk of magnesia) mustbe drunk. Vomiting should not be inducedand medical assistance must be sought.
o Batteries must only be charged in well ven- tilated areas from which naked lights orsources of sparks are excluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other unautho- rized persons are kept away from batteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the positive (+)and negative (-) terminals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery.
The battery fitted during production is of the“Maintenance Free” type. G220A01A-AAT
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool- ant temperature and may sometimes oper-ate even when the engine is not running.
Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan, so that you are notinjured by a rotating fan blade. As the en-
gine coolant temperature decreases the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normalcondition. G220B01A-AAT
Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should come on auto- matically if the engine coolant temperature ishigh.
