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.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or
engine coolant is leaking out, stop the en-
gine immediately and call the nearest
Hyundai dealer 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.
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 ra-
diator 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.
