32WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START!
D010B02A-AATIf Engine Doesn't Turn Over or Turns
Over Slowly
D010A01A-AATD010C01A-AAT
If Engine Turns Over Normally but Does
Not Start1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the "OFF" position, check all
connectors at ignition coil and spark plugs.
Reconnect any that may be disconnected or
loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine room.
4. If the engine still refuses to start, call a
Hyundai dealer or seek other qualified assis-
tance.
WARNING:
If the engine will not start, do not push or
pull the car to start it. This could result in a
collision or cause other damage. In addition,
push or pull starting may cause the catalytic
converter to be overloaded and create a fire
hazard.

1. If your car has an automatic transaxle, be
sure the gear selector lever is in "N" or "P"
and the emergency brake is set.
2. Check the battery connections to be sure
they are clean and tight.
3. Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or
goes out when you operate the starter, the
battery is discharged.
4. Check the starter connections to be sure
they are securely tightened.
5. Do not push or pull the vehicle to start it. See
instructions for "Jump Starting".

D080B01A-AATTOWING A CAR WITH MANUAL
TRANSAXLEo If the car is being towed with the rear wheels
on the ground, be sure the parking brake is
released.
o If the car is being towed with the front wheels
on the ground, be sure that the transaxle is
in neutral. Also, be sure that the ignition key
is in the "ACC" position. This is necessary to
prevent damage to the steering lock mecha-
nism, which is not designed to hold the front
wheels straight while the car is being towed.
o If any of the loaded wheels or suspension
components are damaged, a towing dolly
must be used.

CAUTION:A car with an automatic transaxle should
never be towed from the rear with the front
wheels on the ground. This can cause seri-
ous damage to the transaxle. If the car must
be towed from the rear, a towing dolly must
be used under the front wheels. o NOT OK FOR AUTOMATIC

released.
!
NOTE:Before towing, check the level of the tran-
saxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" range on
the dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot add
fluid, a towing dolly must be used as de-
scribed above.

CAUTION:
An open fuse indicates that there is a prob-
lem in the electrical circuit. If you replace a
fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory
is turned on, the problem is serious and
should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for
diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse
with anything except a fuse with the same or
a lower amperage rating. A higher capacity
fuse could cause damage and create a fire
hazard.

G200B01A-AATReplacing Accessory FusesThe fuse box for the lights and other electrical
accessories will be found low on the dashboard
on the driver's side. 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 (open) fuse
could be the reason. If the fuse has opened, you
will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has
melted through. If you suspect a blown fuse,
follow this procedure:
HLC4002
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
fuse box to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you
find one that appears to have opened.
HLC4003
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 deal-
er. 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 tempo-
rarily get along without (the radio or cigarette
lighter, for example). Always remember to
replace the borrowed fuse.
NOTE:See page 6-32 for the fuse panel descrip-
tions.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING
FANS!
G220A01A-AAT G230A03A-AAT
G220B01A-AATChecking Engine Cooling FanThe engine cooling fan should come on auto-
matically if the engine coolant temperature is
high.
WARNING:
The radiator fan is controlled by engine cool-
ant temperature and may sometimes operate
even when the engine is not running. Use
extreme caution when working near the
blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not
injured by a rotating fan blade. As the cool-
ant temperature decreases the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal condition.G220C01A-AATChecking Condenser Cooling FanThe condenser cooling fan should come on
automatically whenever the air conditioner is in
operation.
HLC5006
The power steering fluid level should be checked
regularly. To check the power steering fluid
level, be sure the engine is "OFF", then check to
make certain that the power steering fluid level
is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings
on the fluid reservoir.NOTE:Grinding noise from the power steering pump
may be heard immediately after the engine is
started in extremely cold conditions (below
-4°F). If the noise stops during warm up,
there is no abnormal function in the system.
It is due to a power steering fluid character-
istic in extremely cold conditions.
If any electrolyte gets into your
eyes, flush your eyes with clean
water for at least 15 minutes and
get immediate medical attention.
If possible, continue to apply wa-
ter with a sponge or cloth until
medical attention is received.
If electrolyte gets on your skin,
thoroughly wash the contacted
area.
If you feel a pain or a burning
sensation, get medical attention
immediately.
Wear eye protection when charg-
ing or working near a battery.
Always provide ventilation when
working in an enclosed space.
o When lifting a plastic-cased battery, ex-
cessive pressure on the case may cause
battery acid to leak, resulting in personal
injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with
your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the battery when
the battery cables are connected.
o The electrical ignition system works with
high voltage.
Never touch these components with the
engine running or the ignition switched
on.
