o If battery electrolyte is spilled ontoskin or into eyes, the effected area must be flushed with copious amounts of water and medical as- sistance sought.
o If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious amounts of water or milkfollowed by an ant-acid (raw egg ormilk of magnesia) must be drunk. Vomiting should not be induced and medical assistance must besought.
o Batteries must only be charged in well ventilated areas from which naked lights or sources of sparks are excluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other unauthorised persons are kept awayfrom batteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the
positive (+) and negative (-) termi-nals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery.
The battery fitted during production isof the "Maintenance Free" type.
If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burn- ing sensation, get medical attention immediately. Wear eye protection when charging or working near a battery.Always provide ventilationwhen working in an en-closed space.
o When lifting a plastic-cased bat- tery, excessive pressure on thecase may cause battery acid toleak, 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 componentswith the engine running or theignition switched on.!WARNING:
Always read the following instructions carefully when handling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the battery.Hydrogen, which is a highlycombustible gas, is alwayspresent in battery cells and may explode if ignited. Keep batteries out of the reach of children because
batteries contain highly cor-rosive SULPHURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acid to
contact your skin, eyes,
clothing or paint finish.If any electrolyte gets intoyour eyes, flush your eyeswith clean water for at least 15 minutes and get imme- diate medical attention. Ifpossible, continue to apply water with a sponge or cloth until medical atten-tion is received.

!
YG210A1-E
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Do not touch the radiator fan until it is completely stopped.
As the coolant temperature de-
creases the fan will automaticallyshut off. This is a normal condi- tion. Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine cooling fan should auto-
matically come on if the engine cool- ant temperature is high. Checking Condenser Cooling Fan
The condenser cooling fan (in front of
the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioneris in operation. YG220A1-E Power Steering Hoses It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hoses could cause premature failure.
HGK5011
G230A01GK-EAT 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. NOTE:
o The power steering pump may be
noisy when the engine is first started in the extreme cold (-20°C/ -4°F). This noise is not abnormal and will stop as the engine warmsup. If the power steering pump continues to be noisy after the engine has warmed up, have itinspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer.
o Do not check whilst the engine is running. Do not start when powersteering fluid reservoir is empty.

I050A01GK-EAT TYRE CHAINS Tyre chains should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Refer tothe following information.
To minimise tyre and chain wear, do
not continue to use tyre chains when they are no longer needed. WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h).
o Use tyre chains less than 0.39 in. (10 mm) to 16", 17" tyre.
o Avoid sudden stop and turn.
o Tighten firmly not to hear con- tact sound, if it still sounds,remove the chains for damage protection.
ZI030A2-E SNOW TYRES If you equip your car with snow tyres, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tyres. Do not drive faster than70 mph (113 km/h) when your car is equipped with snow tyres.

I060A01GK-EAT TYRE ROTATION The tyre wear characteristics will vary between each tyre dependant upon the conditions of use. It is normal for the front tyres to wear more rapidlythan those fitted to the rear of the vehicle and therefore tyre rotation will provide a means of helping to ensurean even wear rate across the tyre set. For vehicles fitted with radial ply tyres, rotation should be confined to front torear tyre alternation. It is not recom- mended that radial ply tyres be ro- tated from side to side. NOTE: Aluminium wheels which are not supplied as Original Equipmentshould not be mixed on the same vehicle with the original steel wheels.

Sidewall
HGK5018
17" Tyre Tyre rotation direction
WARNING:
When rotating the 215/45 R17 tyres,
ensure to follow the"ROTATION" direction marked on the sidewallof tyres.
When rotating the tyres of the left
and right, separate the wheel fromthe tyre and then re-assemble them. However, it is acceptable that the steel spare wheel be used in con-junction with Original Equipment aluminium wheels since the offset of both wheels is compatible. Ra-dial and cross ply tyres should not be mixed on the same vehicle.

TYRE REPLACEMENT
Tyres must be replaced when the wear
indicators appear as a solid bar across the tyre tread. At this point, the re- maining tread depth will be approxi-mately 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). In addition to this, the tyre must be replaced if any portion of the tread has become baldor if there are any lumps, bulges or deep cuts in the sidewalls or tread.
Replacement tyres must be of the
recommended size and rating and should be of the same manufactureand tread pattern on each axle. HGK5015
0.06 in. (1.6 mm )
Wear indicator
SI060A2-E TYRE BALANCING Incorrect tyre balance will cause steer- ing vibration and uneven tyre wear. The vehicle tyres are balanced during production but may need further bal-ancing throughout the life of the tyres.It is recommended that the tyres bebalanced on the car for best results and that the tyres are balanced when- ever they have been removed from thewheel for repair. NOTE: Should abnormal wear be noted on a tyre, then it is recommended that the wheel alignment be checked byyour Hyundai authorised repairer at the earliest opportunity.
!WARNING:
Tyres degrade over time, even when they are not being used. Regardless of the remaining tread, it is recom-mended that tyres generally be re- placed after six (6) years of normal service. Heat caused by hot cli-mates or frequent high loading con- ditions can accelerate the aging pro- cess. Failure to follow this warningcan result in sudden tyre failure, which could lead to a loss of con- trol and an accident involving seri-ous injury or death.

WHEEL REPLACEMENT
The original wheels may only be re-
placed with Hyundai Approved Wheels.
WARNING:
Driving on worn or defective tyres
is dangerous. Worn tyres may cause loss of steering control anda serious deterioration of braking efficiency. Defective tyres may cause vibration and loss of con-trol through blow outs.
Tyres of different size, construction or
tread pattern should not be intermixedon the same axle. Radial and cross ply tyres should not be used on the same vehicle. The use of tyres and wheels of non
approved sizes can be dangerous.
