Drive belts should be checked periodi-
cally for proper tension. At the same time, belts should be examined forcracks, wear, fraying or other evidence of deterioration and replaced if neces- sary.
When a new belt is replaced, the belt
should be located within the pulley offlat idler. Belt routing should also be checked
to be sure there is no interferencebetween the belts and other parts of the engine.
NOTE: Drive belt tension is adjusted auto-
matically by the auto tensioner. CHECKING DRIVE BELTS

CHECKING AND REPLAC- ING FUSES

Replacing a Fusible Link
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever over- loaded, thus preventing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This couldbe caused by a short in the system drawing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealerdetermine the cause, repair the sys- tem and replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a relay boxfor easy inspection. HNF4004
The parking brake pedal should bechecked periodically for proper stroke.If you feel loose in the parking brake pedal when the parking brake is en- gaged, have your parking brake ad-justed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.CHECKING PARKING BRAKE PEDAL

CAUTION:
A burned-out fuse indicates that there is a problem in the electricalcircuit. If you replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is seriousand should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse withanything except a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and create a fire hazard. NOTE: See page 6-37 for the fuse panel descriptions.

CHECKING THE BATTERY
G210A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Batteries can be dangerous! When working with batteries, carefully observe the following precautionsto avoid serious injuries. The fluid in the battery contains a
strong solution of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or thecar. If you do spill battery fluid on yourself, immediately do the follow- ing: HTG5019
!
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 Hyundaidealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower ratingfrom an accessory you can tempo- rarily get along without (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Al-ways remember to replace the bor- rowed fuse.

Keep batteries out of the reach of children becausebatteries contain highly corrosive SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acidto contact your skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish. If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least15 minutes and get imme- diate medical attention. If possible, continue to ap-ply water with a sponge or cloth until medical atten- tion is received. If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area.If you feel a pain or a burn-ing sensation, get medi-cal attention immediately.Wear eye protection whencharging or working neara battery.Always provide ventilationwhen working in an en- closed space.

G210B01Y-GAT
Checking the Battery
Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corrosion around the battery postsor terminals should be removed using a solution of household baking soda and warm water. After the batteryterminals are dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.
WARNING:Always read the followinginstructions carefully when handling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the bat-tery.Hydrogen, which is ahighly combustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode ifignited.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 getmedical assistance as soon as possible. While you are being drivento get medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated withwater.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk fol- lowed by milk of magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetable oil. Getmedical assistance as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged(either by a battery charger or by the vehicle's alternator), they produceexplosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries from occurring:
o Charge batteries only in a well ven- tilated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.

CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan, sothat you are not injured by a rotat- ing fan blade. As the engine cool- ant temperature decreases the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
G220B01NF-GAT
Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine cooling fan should come on automatically if the engine coolant temperature is high or whenever the air conditioning is in operation.POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
G230A03A-GAT The power steering fluid level should be checked regularly.To check the power steering fluid level,be sure the ignition 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.
HTG5014
o When lifting a plastic-cased bat-
tery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid toleak, resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the bat- tery when the battery cables areconnected.
o The electrical ignition system works with high voltage. Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.
