CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use
anything but a new fusible link with the
same or lower amperage rating. Never
use a piece of wire or a higher-rated
fusible link. This could result in serious
damage and create a fire hazard.

4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a
new fuse of the same rating into place.
The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not,
have the fuse clip repaired or replaced
by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have
a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow
a fuse of the same or lower rating from
an accessory you can temporarily get
along without (the radio or cigarette
lighter, for example). Always remember
to replace the borrowed fuse.
G200B01NF-AATReplacing Accessory FuseThe fuse box for the lights and other elec-
trical accessories will be found on the left
side of the instrument panel. Inside the box
you will find a list showing the circuits
protected by each fuse.
If any of your car's lights or other electrical
accessories stop working, a blown fuse
could be the reason. If the fuse has burned
out, you will see that the metal strip inside
the fuse has burned through. If you suspect
a blown fuse, follow this procedure:
1. Turn off the ignition and all other
switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each
fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it
toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is
contained in the relay and fuse box of
the engine room to simplify this
operation).

3. Be sure to check all other fuses, even if
you find one that appears to have burned
out.
