ENGINE COOLANT
The high-pressure cooling system
has a reservoir filled with year-round
antifreeze coolant. The reservoir is
filled at the factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at
the beginning of the winter season
and before traveling to a colder cli-
mate.Checking the engine coolant
level
WARNING
Never remove the
radiator cap or the
drain plug while the
engine and radiator
are hot. Hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure, causing serious
injury.

(Continued)
Turn the engine off and wait
until the engine cools down.
Use extreme care when remov-
ing the radiator cap. Wrap a
thick towel around it, and turn it
counterclockwise slowly to the
first stop. Step back while the
pressure is released from the
cooling system. When you are
sure all the pressure has been
released, press down on the
cap, using a thick towel, and
continue turning counterclock-
wise to remove it.
WARNING
The electric motor for
the cooling fan may
continue to operate
or start up when the
engine is not running
and can cause serious injury.
Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the rotating fan
blades of the cooling fan.

WIPER BLADES
Blade inspection
Contamination of either the wind-
shield or the wiper blades with for-
eign matter can reduce the effective-
ness of the windshield wipers.
Common sources of contamination
are insects, tree sap, and hot wax
treatments used by some commer-
cial car washes. If the blades are not
wiping properly, clean both the win-
dow and the blades with a clean
cloth dampened with washer fluid.✽ ✽NOTICE
Commercial hot waxes applied by
automatic car washes have been
known to make the windshield diffi-
cult to clean.
Blade replacement
■ ■ Type A
1. Raise the wiper arm and slightly rotate the wiper blade assembly to
expose the plastic locking clip.
1JBA5122
CAUTION
Do not allow the wiper arm tofall against the windshield,since it may chip or crack thewindshield.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiperblades, arms or other compo-nents, do not:
Use gasoline, kerosene, paint thinner, or other solvents onor near them.
Attempt to move the wipers manually.
Use non-specified wiper blades.

Maintenance
Battery recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedin a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.
WARNING
Always follow these instruc-
tions when recharging your
vehicle’s battery to avoid the
risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH from explosions or acid
burns:
Before performing mainte-nance or recharging the bat-
tery, turn off all accessories
and place the ignition switch
in the LOCK/OFF position.
Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking materials away from
the battery.
Always work outdoors or in an area with plenty of ventilation.
Wear eye protection when checking the battery during
charging.
The battery must be removed from the vehicle and placed in
a well ventilated area.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Watch the battery duringcharging, and stop or reduce
the charging rate if the battery
cells begin boiling violently.
The negative battery cable must be removed first and
installed last when the battery
is disconnected. Disconnect
the battery charger in the fol-
lowing order:
(1) Turn off the battery charg- er main switch.
(2) Unhook the negative clamp from the negative
battery terminal.
(3) Unhook the positive clamp from the positive battery
terminal.
Always use a genuine HYUNDAI approved battery
when you replace the battery.

By jump starting
After a jump start from a good bat-
tery, drive the vehicle for 20-30 min-
utes before it is shutoff. The vehicle
may not restart if you shut it off
before the battery had a chance to
adequately recharge. See “Jump
Starting” in chapter 6 for more infor-
mation on jump starting procedures.
✽ ✽
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.
Reset features
Some items need to be reset after
the battery has been discharged or
the battery has been disconnected.

Maintenance
TIRES AND WHEELS
Tire care
For proper maintenance, safety, and
maximum fuel economy, you must
always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within
the load limits and weight distribution
recommended for your vehicle.WARNING
Tire failure may cause loss of
vehicle control resulting in an
accident. To reduce risk of
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH,
take the following precautions:
Inspect your tires monthly forproper inflation as well as
wear and damage.
The recommended cold tire pressure for your vehicle can
be found in this manual and
on the tire label located on the
driver’s side center pillar.
Always use a tire pressure
gauge to measure tire pres-
sure. Tires with too much or
too little pressure wear
unevenly causing poor han-
dling.
Check the pressure of the spare (if equipped) every time
you check the pressure of the
other tires on your vehicle.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Replace tires that are worn,show uneven wear, or are
damaged. Worn tires can
cause loss of braking effec-
tiveness, steering) control, or
traction.
ALWAYS replace tires with the same size as each tire that
was originally supplied with
this vehicle. Using tires and
wheels other than the recom-
mended sizes could cause
unusual handling characteris-
tics, poor vehicle control, or
negatively affect your vehi-
cle’s Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) resulting in a serious
accident.

Maintenance
Wheel alignment and tire bal-
ance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to
have your wheels aligned again.
However, if you notice unusual tire
wear or your vehicle pulling one way
or the other, the alignment may need
to be reset.
If you notice your vehicle vibrating
when driving on a smooth road, your
wheels may need to be rebalanced.
Tire replacement
If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear
indicator will appear as a solid band
across the tread. This shows there is
less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) of tread
left on the tire. Replace the tire when
this happens.
Do not wait for the band to appear
across the entire tread before replac-
ing the tire.
CAUTION
Improper wheel weights candamage your vehicle’s alu-minum wheels. Use onlyapproved wheel weights.
OEN076053
Tread wear indicator
WARNING
To reduce the risk of DEATH or
SERIOUS INJURY:
Replace tires that are worn,
show uneven wear, or are dam-
aged. Worn tires can cause loss
of braking effectiveness, steer-
ing control, and traction.
Always replace tires with the
same size as each tire that was
originally supplied with this
vehicle. Using tires and wheels
other than the recommended
sizes could cause unusual han-
dling characteristics, poor vehi-
cle control, or negatively affect
your vehicle’s Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) resulting in a
serious accident.
Tires degrade over time, even
when they are not being used.
Regardless of the remaining
tread, HYUNDAI recommends
that tires be replaced after six
(6) years of normal service.

Maintenance
In an emergency, if you do not have
a spare fuse, use a fuse of the same
rating from a circuit you may not
need for operating the vehicle, such
as the cigarette lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the
fuses are OK, check the fuse panel
in the engine compartment. If a fuse
is blown, it must be replaced.Memory fuse
Always, put the fuse switch at the ON
position.
If you move the switch to the OFF
position, some items such as the
audio and digital clock must be reset
and the remote key (or smart key)
may not work properly.
OMD070019
CAUTION
Always place the fuse switch inthe ON position while drivingthe vehicle.
