1. Loosen the adusting bolts just
enough so that the components can be moved.
2. Whilst pulling outward on the pry bar
or screwdriver, test the belt deflec-tion with your thumb.
3. After tightening the adjusting bolts, be sure to recheck the belt tension. Overtightening drive belts can cause excessive wear and failurein driven components and belts.
WARNING:
The drive belt should be checked when the engine is cool or cold to avoid burning yourself on hot en-gine. The fusible link prevents damage tothe wiring harness in the event of anelectrical system malfunction. Failure of a fusible link is indicative of a serious overload condition havingoccurred and therefore the electrical system should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before areplacement link is fitted.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should afusible link be replaced with any- thing other than a new link of the same rating. The use of higherrated links or other means of con- necting the circuit will create a potential fire hazard.
