WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap when theengine is hot. The engine coolant is underpressure and could erupt and cause severeburns. Wait until the engine is cool beforeremoving the radiator cap. The needle on the engine coolant temperature gauge should stay in the normal range. If itmoves across the dial to "H" (Hot), pull over andstop as soon as possible and turn off theengine. Then open the hood and after theengine has cooled, check the coolant level andthe water pump drive belt. If you suspect cool-ing system trouble, have your cooling systemchecked by a Hyundai dealer as soon as pos-sible.
The needle on the gauge indicates the approxi-mate fuel level in the fuel tank.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY 3-3
WARNING: While the engine is running, keep hair, hands, and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury. WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injec- tors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not move than 30cm closer to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room while engine is running, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or
coolant is leaking out, stop the engine im- mediately and call the nearest Hyundai deal- er for assistance.
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. This can allow coolant to be blown out of the opening and cause serious burns. 2. The spare tire should only be used temporari-
ly and should be returned to the luggage compartment as soon as the original tire can be repaired or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 80 km/h (50 mph) is not recommended.
4. As the temporary spare tire is specifically designed for your car, it should not be used on any other vehicle.
5. The temporary spare tire should not be used
on any other wheels, nor should standard tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings be used with the temporary spare wheel. If such use is attempted, damage to these items or other car components may occur.
6. The temporary spare tire pressure should be
checked once a month while the tire is stored.
CAUTION:
o Do not use snow chains with your tempo- rary spare tire.
o Do not use more than one temporary spare tire at a time.
D040A01FC-GAT TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE The following instructions for the temporary spare tire should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as possible
after installing the spare tire, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tire pressure should be periodically checked and maintained at the specified pressure while the tire is stored.
Inflation Pressure
Tire Size
T115/70R(D)15 420 kPa (60 psi)
Spare Tire Pressure
6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheat-
ing, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if the engine cool- ant has been lost, carefully remove the radia- tor cap and add engine coolant to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for fur- ther signs of overheating. If overheating hap- pens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assis- tance.
CAUTION: Serious loss of engine coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundai dealer.

CHECKING AND CHANGING THE ENGINE COOLANT
WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is under pressure and mayerupt through the opening if the cap isremoved. You could be seriously burned ifyou do not observe this precaution. Do notremove the radiator cap until the radiator iscool to the touch. NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally acceptable manner. It is sug-gested that it be placed in a sealed containerand taken to a service station for maybereclaimation. Do not pour the oil on theground or put it into the household trash. WARNING: Used motor oil may cause irritation or
cancer
of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods of time. Wash your handsthoroughly with soap and warm water assoon as possible after handling used oil.

To Check the Coolant Level
G050C01FC
The coolant level can be seen on the side of the
plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the cool- ant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL"lines on the reservoir when the engine is cold.If the level is below the "LOW" mark, addengine coolant to bring it up between "LOW"and "FULL". If the level is low, inspect for G050D02A-AAT
To Change the Coolant The coolant should be changed at those inter-
vals specified in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5.
CAUTION: Engine coolant can damage the finish of
your car. If you spill engine coolant on the car, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the park- ing brake and remove the radiator cap when cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allowall the engine coolant to drain from thecooling system, then securely close the draincock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then, followingthe manufacturer’s directions on the enginecoolant container, add the appropriate quan-tity of coolant to the radiator.

4. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise with-
out pressing down on it, until it stops. This relieves any pressure remaining in the cool-ing system. And remove the radiator cap bypushing down and turning counterclockwise. Now fill the radiator with clean demineralized or distilled water. Continue to add clean deminer-alized or distilled water in small quantities untilthe fluid level stays up in the radiator neck. G060B02S-GAT
REPLACING THE SPARK PLUGS The spark plugs should be changed at theintervals specified in the vehicle maintenancesschedule in Section 5 or whenever engine per-formance indicates they should be changed.Symptoms that suggest poor spark plug perfor-mance include engine misfiring under load, lossof fuel economy, poor acceleration, etc. Whenspark plugs are replaced, always use sparkplugs recommended by Hyundai. The use ofother spark plugs can result in loss of perfor-mance, radio interference or engine damage. NOTE: When replacing the spark plugs, genuine Hyundai replacement parts are recom-mended. Recommended Spark Plugs:
SSA6060A
Unleaded: 1.0 ~ 1.1 mm (0.039 ~ 0.043 in.) Leaded: 0.7 ~ 0.8 mm (0.028 ~ 0.032 in.)

5. Start the engine, top off the radiator with
water and then add engine coolant to the reservoir until the level is between "LOW"and "FULL".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and check to be sure the drain cocks are fullyclosed and not leaking.
WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool- ant temperature and may sometimes oper-ate even when the engine is not running.Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan so that you are notinjured by a rotating fan blade. As the en-gine coolant temperature decreases, the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normalcondition.
