Driving your vehicle
ABS cannot prevent a loss of stabili-
ty. Always steer moderately when
braking hard. Severe or sharp steer-
ing wheel movement can still cause
your vehicle to veer into oncoming
traffic or off the road.
On loose or uneven road surfaces,
operation of the anti-lock brake sys-
tem may result in a longer stopping
distance than for vehicles equipped
with a conventional brake system.
The ABS warning light ( ) will stay
on for several seconds after the igni-
tion switch is in the ON position.
During that time, the ABS will go
through self-diagnosis and the light
will go off if everything is normal. If
the light stays on, you may have a
problem with your ABS. Contact an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.✽ ✽NOTICE
When you jump start your vehicle
because of a drained battery, the
ABS warning light ( ) may turn
on at the same time. This happens
because of the low battery voltage. It
does not mean your ABS is malfunc-
tioning. Have the battery recharged
before driving the vehicle.WARNING
If the ABS warning light ( ) is
on and stays on, you may have
a problem with the ABS. Your
power brakes will work normal-
ly. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death, contact your
HYUNDAI dealer as soon as
possible.
CAUTION
When you drive on a road hav-
ing poor traction, such as an icyroad, and apply your brakescontinuously, the ABS will beactive continuously and theABS warning light ( ) mayilluminate. Pull your car over toa safe place and turn the engineoff.
Restart the engine. If the ABSwarning light is off, then yourABS system is normal.Otherwise, you may have aproblem with your ABS system.Contact an authorized HYUNDAIdealer as soon as possible.

IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START
If the engine doesn't turn over
or turns over slowly
Be sure the shift lever is in N(Neutral) or P (Park) if it is an auto-
matic transaxle vehicle. The engine
starts only when the shift lever is in
N (Neutral) or P (Park).
Check the battery connections to be sure they are clean and tight.
Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it. This could cause damage to
your vehicle. See instructions for
"Jump Starting" provided in this
chapter.
If the engine turns over nor-
mally but doesn’t start
Check the fuel level and add fuel if necessary.
If the engine still does not start, call
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.

may cause the catalytic con-
verter to overload which can
lead to damage to the emission
control system.

Jump starting can be dangerous if
done incorrectly. Follow the jump
starting procedure in this section to
avoid serious injury or damage to
your vehicle. If in doubt about how to
properly jump start your vehicle, we

What to do in an emergency
WARNING
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH to you or bystanders,
always follow these precautions
when working near or handling
the battery:Always read and follow
instructions carefully
when handling a battery.Wear eye protection
designed to protect the
eyes from acid splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks,
or smoking materials
away from the battery.
Hydrogen is always present in battery cells,
is highly combustible,
and may explode if ignit-
ed.
Keep batteries out of
reach of children.
(Continued)
(Continued)Batteries contain sulfu-
ric acid which is highly
corrosive. Do not allow
acid to contact your
eyes, skin or clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention. If acid
gets on your skin, thoroughly
wash the area. If you feel pain or
a burning sensation, get med-
ical attention immediately.
When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause battery
acid to leak. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
Do not attempt to jump start your vehicle if your battery is
frozen.
(Continued)

✽
✽NOTICE
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to
the environment and human
health. Dispose the battery
according to your local
law(s) or regulation.
Jump starting procedure
1.Position the vehicles close enough
that the jumper cables will reach,
but do not allow the vehicles to
touch.
2.Avoid fans or any moving parts in the engine compartment at all
times, even when the vehicles are
turned off.
3.Turn off all electrical devices such as radios, lights, air conditioning,
etc. Put the vehicles in P (Park, for
automatic transaxle vehicle) or
neutral (for manual transaxle vehi-
cle), and set the parking brakes.
Turn both vehicles OFF.
What to do in an emergency
66
(Continued)
NEVER attempt to rechargethe battery when the vehicle’s
battery cables are connected
to the battery.
The electrical ignition system works with high voltage.
NEVER touch these compo-
nents with the engine running
or when the ignition switch is
in the ON position.
Pb
CAUTION
To prevent damage to your vehi-cle:
Only use a 12-volt power sup- ply (battery or jumper system)to jump start your vehicle.
Do not attempt to jump start your vehicle by push-starting.

4.Connect the jumper cables in theexact sequence shown in the illus-
tration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+)
jumper terminal of your vehicle (1).
5.Connect the other end of the jumper cable to the red, positive
(+) battery/jumper terminal of the
assisting vehicle (2).
6.Connect the second jumper cable to the black, negative (-) battery of
the assisting vehicle (3). 7.Connect the other end of the sec-
ond jumper cable to the chassis
ground of your vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the correct
battery or jumper terminals or the
correct ground. Do not lean over
the battery when making connec-
tions.
8.Start the engine of the assisting vehicle and let it run at approxi-
mately 2,000 rpm for a few min-
utes. Then start your vehicle.
If your vehicle will not start after a
few attempts, it probably requires
servicing. In this event please seek
qualified assistance. If the cause of
your battery discharging is not
apparent, have your vehicle checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Disconnect the jumper cables in the
exact reverse order you connected
them:
1.Disconnect the jumper cable from
the chassis ground of your vehicle
(4).
2.Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the black, nega-
tive (-) battery of the assisting vehi-
cle (3).
3.Disconnect the second jumper cable from the red, positive (+) bat-
tery/jumper terminal of the assist-
ing vehicle (2).
4.Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the red, positive
(+) jumper terminal of your vehicle
(1).
