REPLACING HEADLIGHT BULBS Before attempting to replace a headlight bulb, be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF"position. The next paragraph shows how to reach the headlight bulbs so they may be changed. Besure to replace the burned-out bulb with one ofthe same number and wattage rating. CAUTION: Keep the lamps out of contact with petro- leum products, such as oil, gasoline, etc.
G240A01A-AAT
POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should bereplaced if there is severe surface cracking,scuffing or worn spots. Deterioration of thehose could cause premature failure. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi-tions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops dur-ing warm up, there is no abnormal functionin the system. It is due to a power steeringfluid characteristic in extremely cold condi-tions.
Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty. G300A01B-GAT
REMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER (DIESEL ENGINE)
If the fuel filter warning light illuminates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulatedin the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the wateras described below. 1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the
fuel filter.
2. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
3. Check to be sure that the warning lamp illuminates when the ignition key is turned to"ON", and that it goes off when the engine isstarted. If in doubt, consult your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING: Be sure to carefully wipe away any waterdrained out in this manner, because the fuelmixed in the water might be ignited andresult in a fire.

TIRE BALANCING
A tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai werebalanced before the car was delivered but mayneed balancing again during the years you ownthe car. Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car. I080A01A-AAT
TIRE TRACTION Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on
worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re- placed when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control, slowdown whenever there is rain, snow or ice on theroad. The original tires on your car have tread wear
indicators. The tread wear indicators appearwhen the tread depth is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.). Thetire should be replaced when these appear as asolid bar across two or more grooves of thetread. Always replace your tires with those ofthe recommended size. If you change wheels,the new wheel's rim width and offset must meetHyundai specification.
WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous! Worn-out tires can cause loss of brakingeffectiveness, steering control and trac-tion. When replacing tires, never mix ra-dial and bias-ply tires on the same car. Ifyou replace radial tires with bias-ply tires,they must be installed in sets of four. I100A01FC-GAT

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemen-
tal Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of the system's presence are the letters "SRSAIR BAG" embossed on the airbag pad coverin the steering wheel and the passenger'sside front panel pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags in-
stalled under the pad covers in the centre ofthe steering wheel and the passenger's sidefront panel above the glove box. The purposeof the SRS is to provide the vehicle's driverand/or the front passenger with additionalprotection than that offered by the seat beltsystem alone, in case of a frontal impact ofsufficient severity. NOTE: Be sure to read information about the SRS on the labels provided on the backside ofthe sun visor and in the glove box. WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is de-
signed to work with, and be supplemen- tal to, the driver's and the passenger'sthree point seat belt systems and is nota substitute for them. Therefore yourseat belts must be worn at all timeswhile the vehicle is in motion. In addi-tion, the airbags deploy only in certainfrontal impact conditions severe enoughto likely cause significant injury to thevehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the airbags only when an impact is suffi-ciently severe and when the impact angleis less than 30° from the forward longi-tudinal axis of the vehicle and will notdeploy in side, rear or rollover impacts.Additionally, the airbags will only de-ploy once. Thus, seat belts must beworn at all times.

Side Impact RolloverB240C01FC
o Front airbags are not intended to de-
ploy in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover crashes. In addition, airbagswill not normally deploy in frontalcrashes below the deployment thresh-old speed.
o For maximum safety protection in all types of crashes, all occupants includ-ing the driver should always wear theirseat belts whether or not an airbag isalso provided at their seating positionto minimize the risk of severe injury ordeath in the event of a crash. Do not sitor lean unnecessarily close to the airbagwhile the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy very rapidly to provide protection in acrash. If an occupant is out of positionbecause of not wearing a seat belt, theairbag may forcefully contact the occu-pant causing serious or fatal injuries.

Passenger's Airbag

Upon deployment, tear seams molded di- rectly into the pad covers will separate underpressure from the expansion of the airbags.Further opening of the covers then allows fullinflation of the airbags. A fully inflated airbag in combination with a properly worn seat belt slows the driver's orthe passenger's forward motion, thus reduc-ing the risk of head or chest injury. CAUTION: Do not install or place any accessories (drink holder, cassette holder, sticker, etc)on the front passenger's panel above theglove box in a vehicle with passenger'sside air bag. Such objects may become

SSA1110B
The SRS consists of the following compo- nents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements while the ignition is "ON" to determine if afrontal or near-frontal impact is severe enoughto require airbag deployment.

WARNING:
o Do not install a child restraint system in the front passenger seat position.
A child restraint system must never be placed in the front seat. The infant orchild could be severely injured by anairbag deployment in case of an accident.
o Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat pro-tected by an airbag in front of it!
o Modification to SRS components or wir- ing, including the addition of any kindof badges to the pad covers or modifi-cations to the body structure, can ad-versely affect SRS performance and leadto possible injury.
WARNING:
o For best protection from the side airbag
system and to avoid being injured is by the deploying side impact airbag, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt prop-erly fastened. The driver's hands shouldbe placed on the steering wheel at the9:00 and 3:00 o'clock positions. Thepassenger's arms and hands should beplaced in their laps.
o Do not use any accessory seat covers.
o Use of seat covers could reduce or prevent the effectiveness of the system.
o Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side impact airbag.
o Do not use excessive force on the side of the seat.
o Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and yourself. B240C03Y-GAT SRS Care The SRS is virtually maintenance-free and there are no parts you can safely service byyourself. The entire SRS system must beinspected by an authorized Hyundai dealer in10 years after the date that the vehicle wasmanufactured. Any work on the SRS system, such as remov- ing, installing, repairing, or any work on thesteering wheel must be performed by a quali-fied Hyundai technician. Improper handling ofthe SRS system may result in serious per-sonal injury.

o Do not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door and the front seat. Such objects may be-come dangerous projectiles and causeinjury if the supplemental side impactair bag inflates.
o To prevent unexpected deployment of the side impact air bag that may resultin personal injury, avoid impact to theside airbag sensor when the ignitionkey is on.
