SD020B1-E IF THE ENGINE CANNOT BE CRANKED
1. If the vehicle is fitted with manual
transaxle, ensure that the clutch pedal is depressed whilst cranking the engine. If the vehicle is fitted with automatic transaxle, ensurethat the transaxle selector is at the "P" or"N" position.
2. Check the battery terminals and
connections to ensure that theseare clean and also tight.
3. If the ignition warning lights dim
when the engine is cranked and thebattery terminals have been checked, a discharged battery isindicated. SD020C1-F If Engine Turns Over Normally but Does Not Start
SD020A1-E IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START Seek assistance from the nearest Hyundai authorised repairer with re- gard to the method of ignition and fuelsystem diagnosis.

CAUTION:
If the engine refuses to start, no attempt should be made to push or tow start the vehicle. Vehicles withautomatic transaxle or fuel injec- tion will not be able to be started in this manner since no drive is trans-mitted through the automatic transaxle whilst the engine is not running, and in the case of fuelinjected derivatives, the fuel pump will not operate under tow start conditions. In addition, if the ve-hicle is equipped with an exhaust catalyst, damage to the catalyst may result if the vehicle is tow started. 4. Do not attempt to push or tow start
the vehicle, refer to "Jump Starting"for information regarding enginestarting when the battery is dis- charged.
1. Check fuel Level
2. Check all connectors at ignition coil and spark plugs. Replace any that may be discon- nected or loose.
3. Check fuel line in the engine com- partment.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a
Hyundai authorised repairer or seek other qualified assistance.

SD070K1-E AFTER CHANGING WHEELS The pressure of the spare tyre should be checked at the first available oppor-tunity. If any doubt exists as to the tyre pressure, the vehicle should be driven slowly to the nearest service stationand the tyre pressure checked and adjusted as required. D080A01O-GAT IF YOUR VEHICLE MUST BE TOWED If your vehicle has to be towed, it should be done by your Hyundai dealer or a commercial tow truck service. This will help assure that your vehicleis not damaged in towing. Also, profes- sionals are generally aware of local laws governing towing. In any case,rather than risk damage to your car, it is suggested that you show this infor- mation to the tow truck operator. Besure that a safety chain system is used and that all local laws are observed. It is recommended that your vehiclebe towed with a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheels off the ground.
!
CAUTION:
o Your vehicle can be damaged if towed incorrectly!
o Be sure the transaxle is in neu-
tral.
o When the engine will not start, be sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" po-sition.
Wheel nut tightening torque: Steel wheel & aluminium alloy wheel: 90-110 N.m (65-80 lb.ft)
If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves, a replacement should be ob- tained and fitted at the first availableopportunity. The valve cap prevents the ingress of dirt which may cause the valve to stick and therefore leak and ispart of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and wheel nut wrench as well tools are correctly located in the boot of the vehicle to prevent damage and noise.

1) If the vehicle is being towed with the
rear wheels on the ground, be sure the parking brake is released.
NOTE: Before towing, check the level of the automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" range on the dip-stick, add fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing dolly must be used.
2) If any of the loaded wheels or sus- pension components are damaged or the vehicle is being towed withthe front wheels on the ground, use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
o Manual Transaxle:
If you do not use a towing dolly,place the ignition key in the "ACC" position and put the transaxle in "N(Neutral)".
CAUTION:
Do not tow with the key removed orin the "LOCK" position when tow- ing from the rear without a towing dolly.
CAUTION:
o When towing the vehicle, take care not to cause damage to the bumper or underbody of the ve- hicle.
o Do not tow with sling type truck as this may cause damage to thebumper or underbody of the ve-hicle. HTB210

o Automatic Transaxle:
Be sure to use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
CAUTION:
A vehicle with an automatic transaxle should never be towed from the rear with the front wheelson the ground. This can cause seri- ous damage to the transaxle.
3) It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with all the wheels off the ground.
D080D03TB-EAT EMERGENCY TOWING For emergency towing when no com- mercial tow vehicle is available. Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in thismanner on any unpaved surface. This could result in serious damage to your car.Nor should towing be attempted if the wheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged. Before towing,be sure the transaxle is in neutral and the key is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON" position (with the enginerunning). A driver must be in the towed car to steer it and operate the brakes. (1)Open the towing cover to push it
with your finger.
(2)To mount the towing hook, rotate it clockwise.

H020A01TB-EAT
CATALYTIC CONVERTOR OP- ERATION PRECAUTIONS ; For a Petrol engine
Hyundai Getz models are fitted with
catalytic convertors which require special operating considerations. Thecatalytic convertor serves to oxidize certain noxious elements of the ex- haust gases leaving the engine toreduce the level of pollutants emitted from the vehicle and, provided that care is exercised to prevent damage,the catalyst will operate efficiently for the life of the vehicle.
It is of the utmost importance that the
following information is read and un-derstood by the vehicle operator in
HTB5017Catalytic Converter order to prevent operational problems arising from damage to the catalyst.
Damage to the catalyst will result if
contamination occurs through the use of leaded fuel. Whilst the vehicle isfitted with a reduced diameter filler neck to prevent charging of the fuel tank with a leaded fuel pump nozzle,it is possible that the use of funnels or fuel cans will permit leaded fuel to be introduced into the fuel tank.
The catalyst is intolerant of unburnt
fuel and therefore if an engine misfirecondition exists, damage to the cata-lyst will occur. It is imperative that if a misfire condition develops, the ve- hicle is immediately presented to aHyundai dealer for rectification. Simi- larly, the practice of certain ignition system diagnosis procedures whichinvolve inducing a misfire (cylinder power balance tests for example) may result in catalyst damage.
For these reasons, it is advisable that
the exhaust gas emission be testedat each routine service with a gas analyzer having a Hydrocarbon mea- suring facility to ensure continuedreliability of the catalyst. Push or tow starting of the vehicle is to be avoided since unburnt fuel may enter the catalyst and result in dam-age. (Note, it is impossible to push or tow start a Hyundai model equipped with fuel injection since the fuel pumpsafety interlock will prevent the pump from operating under these conditions). Operation of the catalyst involves ex- tremely high temperatures being at- tained within the catalytic convertor,and although the convertor is fitted with heat shields, it is important that the vehicle is not parked over combus-tible or volatile material which may result in fire. If the above precautions are not ad- hered to and the catalyst becomes inoperative, the resultant increase in core temperature will result in a "meltdown" where the catalyst core will melt and subsequently may block the exhaust system.Due to the fragile nature of the cata-lyst element, it is important that dam-age does not occur when the vehicle is raised by means of a garage jack. Care must also be exercised to avoiddriving over road hazards or debris which may cause damage to the cata- lyst element.
