o Charge batteries only in a well ventilated
area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area. G210B01A-AAT Checking the BatteryKeep the battery clean. Any evidence of corro- sion around the battery posts or terminals should be removed using a solution of household bak- ing soda and warm water. After the battery terminals are dry, cover them with a light coat- ing of grease. G220A01A-AAT CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS 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 the blades of the coolant fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the en- gine coolant temperature decreases the fan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
G210A01A-AAT CHECKING THE BATTERYWARNING: Batteries can be dangerous! When working with batteries, carefully observe the follow- ing precautions to avoid serious injuries. The fluid in the battery contains a strong solu- tion of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or the car. If you do spill battery fluid on yourself, immediately do the following:
o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the
affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medical assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and get medical assistanceas soon as possible. While you are being driven to get medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk followed by milk ofmagnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetable oil. Get medical assistance as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged (either by a battery charger or by the vehicle’s alternator), they produce explosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries from occur- ring:

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 7-1
7. EMISSION
CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010A01A-GAT EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS (If installed) Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibition rules of your province. There are three emission control systems which are as follows. (1) Crankcase emission control system (For a Gasoline Engine)
(2) Evaporative emission control system (For a Gasoline Engine)
(3) Exhaust emission control system In order to assure the proper function of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main- tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac- cordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual. H010C02Y-GAT 2. Evaporative Emission Control
System; For a Gasoline Engine
The Evaporative Emission Control System is
designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. Canister While the engine is inoperative, fuel vapors
generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canis- ter are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve The purge control solenoid valve is controlled
by the ECM; when the engine coolant tempera- ture is low, and during idling, it closes, so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the surge tank.
After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, it opens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to the surge tank. H020A01A-AAT CATALYTIC CONVERTER ; For a Gasoline Engine
H020A01HP
Catalytic Converter
All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a mono- lith type three-way catalytic converter to re- duce the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter may cause it to operate at a very high temperature. The introduction of large amounts of unburned gasoline into the exhaust may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and create a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by observing the following:
H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control System
; For a Gasoline Engine
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation System is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crank- case. This system supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, which the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve into the induction system.7
H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control SystemThe Exhaust Emission Control System is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining good vehicle performace.

ZB130A2-E WINDSCREEN WIPER ANDWASHER SWITCH The windscreen wiper switch has three posi-
tions.
1. Intermittent operation
2. Low speed operation
3. High speed operation
NOTE: To prevent damage to the wiper system, do
not attempt to wipe away heavy accumula- tions of snow or ice. Accumulated snow andice should be removed manually. If there isonly a light layer of snow or ice, operate theheater in the defrost mode to melt the snowor ice before using the wiper. YB130B1-E WINDSCREEN WASHER OPERATION
To use the windscreen washer, pull the wiper/
washer lever toward the steering wheel. When the washer lever is operated, the wipers auto-matically make two passes across the wind-shield. The washer continues to operate untilthe lever is released.
NOTE: In winter conditions where screen washer
icing occurs, a winter screen wash additive containing an anti-freeze component maybe used. Only fluids specifically intendedfor this purpose should be used. Ensurethat undiluted additive is not spilt upon thevehicle paintwork and that engine coolantanti-freeze is not used for this purpose ordamage to the paintwork may occur. HXG199J

Windscreen Washers & Wipers
The windscreen washer bottle should be filled with a solution of water and a proprietary winterscreen wash additive. The windscreen wipersshould not be used if the blades are frozen tothe windscreen or if they are covered withsnow, before this is removed. NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid additive to spill upon the paintwork or useengine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.
o When driving in extreme conditions, the windscreen wiper blades may fail to clearthe screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice build up inside the wheel arches may interfere with theroadwheels or steering mechanism. In suchinstances, unusual noises or an increase insteering effort may result. Therefore, ensurethat the wheelarches are checked periodi-cally and any accumulated snow or ice re-moved.
ZC170B1-E
Electrical System
Winter conditions impose severe demands upon
vehicle electrical systems, particularly the charg-ing circuit. The battery condition and perfor-mance along with the alternator performanceand drive belt condition should be checked priorto the onset of winter.
YC170C1-E
Anti-freeze/Corrosion inhibitor The cooling system must always contain anEthylene-Glycol based anti-freeze solution. Thesystem is filled during manufacture with solu-tion of the correct strength which should bechecked before the onset of winter and adjust-ed or changed as required. NOTE: The anti-freeze solution contains a corro- sion inhibitor to prevent degradation of thealuminium castings contained within theengine. Therefore, never, drain the systemand refill with water only. In addition, anti-freeze solution must ALWAYS be used in vehicles fitted with air conditioning,to prevent the heater matrix from freezing andsubsequently bursting with the refrigeration sys-tem in use. ZC170D1-E
Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism become fro-zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.Alternatively, warming the door key may thawthe door lock. However, the key should behandled carefully to avoid burning the fingers. Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using hot water, since the water will eventually freezeand compound the problem. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immo-bilizer key is from -40°F to 176°F (-40°C to80°C). If you heat the immobilizer key over176°F to open the frozen lock, it may causedamage to the transponder in its head.
