If the red indicator illuminates, pull over and stop as soon as possible and turn off the engine. Then open the bonnetand check the coolant level (See "If the engine overheats" on the page 3-4.) and the water pump drive belt. If you sus-pect cooling system trouble, have your cooling system checked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as possible. NOTE: If the red engine temperature indica- tor illuminates, it indicates overheat-ing that may damage the engine.

FUEL FILTER WARNING LIGHT-RED(Diesel Engine)
This light illuminates when the engine has started and go off after a approimately seconds. If it lights upwhile the engine is running, it indicates that water has accumulated inside the fuel filter. If this happens, remove thewater from the fuel filter. (Refer to "6-24 page")B290A01TB-EAT ENGINE COOLANT TEM-
PERATURE INDICATOR
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The engine coolantis under pressure and could erupt and cause severe burns. Wait until the engine is cool before removingthe radiator cap.
!
These indicators show the temperature of the engine coolant when the ignition switch is ON. Red indicator illuminatesif the temperature of the engine coolant is above 120±3°C (248±37.4°F). Blue indicator Illuminates if the tem-perature of the engine coolant is below 60±3°C (140±37.4°F).

NOTE: If the fuel-filler flap will not open because ice has formed around it, tap lightly or push on the lid to breakthe ice and release the lid. Do not lever the flap. If necessary, spray around the flap with an approved de-icer fluid (do not use radiator anti- freeze) or move the vehicle to a warm place and allow the ice to melt.

!WARNING:
o Gasoline vapors are dangerous. Before refueling, always stop the engine and never allow sparks or open flames near the filler area. Ifyou need to replace the filler cap, use a genuine Hyundai replace- ment part.If you open the fuel filler cap dur- ing high ambient temperatures, a slight "pressure sound" may beheard. This is normal and not a cause for concern. Whenever you open the fuel fillercap, turn it slowly.
o Automotive fuels are flammable/
explosive materials. When refuel-ing, please note the following guidelines carefully.
o Before touching the fuel nozzle or
fuel filler cap, have one's hands incontact with metal parts away from the filler neck to discharge staticelectricity.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY 3- 5
!
D040A01TB-EAT TEMPORARY SPARE TYRE (Not all models) The following instructions for the tem- porary spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as
practical after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specifiedpressure. The tyre pressure should be periodically checked and main- tained at the specified pressurewhile the tyre is stored.
6. If the cause of the overheating can- not be found, wait until the enginetemperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, care- fully remove the radiator cap and addwater to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the base of the radia- tor fill opening. Fill the coolant ex-pansion tank to the halfway mark. To ensure the correct water to cool- ant mix is obtained after top up,testing by an authorised repairer is required. WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected fromthe radiator resulting in burns or scalding.
Inflation Pressure
Tyre Size
T105/70D14 420 kPa (60 psi)
2. The spare tyre should only be used temporarily and should be returned to the luggage compartment as soonas the original tyre can be repairered or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 50 mph(80 km/h) is not recom-mended.
4. As the temporary spare tyre is spe- cifically designed for your car, itshould not be used on any other vehicle.
Spare Tyre Pressure
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or coolant is leaking out, stop theengine immediately and call the near-est Hyundai authorised repairer for assistance.
! CAUTION:
Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soonas possible by a Hyundai authorised repairer.
7. Proceed with caution until it is estab-
lished that the engine is operating normally. If the engine overheatsrepeatedly, the advice of a Hyundai authorised repairer should be sought.

o The engine oil consumption is strongly
effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condi-tion etc. More engine oil may be consumed under severe driving conditions suchas high speeds, frequent accelera- tion and deceleration, compared to normal driving.
ZG030E1-E ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of engine oil Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should con- sume some engine oil while normal driving. The cause of oil consumption in a normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis-
tons, piston rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a piston moves down- wards in the cylinder. High negativepressure generated during engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high tempera- ture combustion gases during thecombustion process.

SG050A2-E ENGINE COOLANT CHECKING
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot, since the system is pressurized and coolant may beejected from the radiator resulting in scalding. NOTE: It is recommended that the engine coolant should be changed by an authorised Hyundai dealer.
