If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burn- ing sensation, get medical attention immediately. Wear eye protection when charging or working near a battery. Always provide ventilation when working in an en- closed space.
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 componentswith the engine running or theignition switched on.o If battery electrolyte is spilled onto skin or into eyes, the effected area must be flushed with copious amounts of water and medical as- sistance sought.
o If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious amounts of water or milkfollowed by an antacid (raw egg ormilk of magnesia) must be drunk. Vomiting should not be induced and medical assistance must besought.
o Batteries must only be charged in well ventilated areas from which naked lights or sources of sparks are excluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other unauthorised persons are kept awayfrom batteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the
positive (+) and negative (-) termi-nals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery.
The battery fitted during production isof the "Maintenance Free" type.
!WARNING: Always read the following instructions carefully whenhandling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the battery. Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode if ignited. Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly cor- rosive SULPHURIC ACID.Do not allow battery acid to contact your skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish.If any electrolyte gets intoyour eyes, flush your eyeswith clean water for at least 15 minutes and get imme- diate medical attention. Ifpossible, continue to apply water with a sponge or cloth until medical atten-tion is received.

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 powersteering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. NOTE: Do not check whilst the engine is running. Do not start the engine when power steering fluid reservoir is empty. Fluid Recommendation Only automatic transmission fluid meeting the specification of PSF-3 orATF DEXRON 2 should be used in the power steering system.POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Do not touchthe radiator fan until it is completely stopped and the battery has been disconnected. As the coolant temperature de-
creases the fan will automaticallyshut off. This is a normal condi- tion.
Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should auto- matically come on if the engine cool- ant temperature is high.
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan (in front of the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioner is in operation.

The fuel system should be bled to
remove air as described in the illus- tration if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter isreplaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a long time.
1. Pump the hand prime pump with your hand for one minute(about 20~30 times).
2. Turn the ignition key to the "START" position and release it 2~3 times shortly until the engine starts. CAUTION:
Do not hold the ignition key in the"START" position for more than 15 seconds. Doing so may causethe engine and the injection pump to damage.

YG220A1-E POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections forfluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched- ule in Section 5. The power steeringhoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff- ing or worn spots. Deterioration of thehoses could cause premature failure. NOTE: The power steering pump may be noisy when the engine is first started in the extreme cold (-4°F/-20°C). Thisnoise is not abnormal and will stop as the engine warms up. If the power steering pump continues to be noisyafter the engine has warmed up, have it inspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer.

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 is started. If in doubt, consult your nearest Hyundai authorised repairer.
NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should be removed by a Hyundai authorised repairer.
WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away anywater drained out in this manner, because the fuel mixed in the water might be ignited and resultin a fire. Before attempting to replace a head-
light 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. Be sure to replacethe burned-out bulb with one of the same number and wattage rating.
Ensure that the replacement bulb has
the same cap configuration and watt-age as the original.
See page 6-35 for the wattage descrip-
tions.
CAUTION:
Keep the lamps out of contact with
petroleum products, such as oil, petrol, etc.

Removal Of Water From TheFuel Filter (For Diesel Engine)
If the fuel filter warning lamp illumi- nates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the wateras described below.
1. Loosen the drain plug at the bot- tom of the fuel filter.
2. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.

YH040B1-E About the Catalytic Converter
- For a Petrol Engine Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter cause it to operate at very high temperatures. As a re- sult, the introduction of large amountsof unburned petrol may cause it to overheat and create a fire hazard. This can be avoided by observing thefollowing: H020D01HP-GAT
- For a Diesel Engine
!WARNING:
o Use only unleaded fuel.
o Maintain your engine in good con- dition. Extremely high converter temperatures can result from im-proper operation of the electrical, ignition or M.P.I. (Multi Point In- jection) system.
o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, takeyour car to your Hyundaiauthorised repairer as soon as possible and have the difficulty corrected. o Avoid driving with a very low fuel
level. If you run out of petrol, it could cause the engine to misfire and result in excessive loading ofthe catalytic converter.
o Avoid idling the engine for peri- ods longer than 10 minutes.
o Your Hyundai should not be ei- ther pushed or pulled to get itstarted. This can cause the cata- lytic converter to overload.
o Take care not to stop your Hyundai over any combustible material such as grass, paper, leaves orrags.
o Do not touch the catalytic con- verter or any other part of the exhaust system whilst the engine is running.
o Remember that your Hyundai authorised repairer is your bestsource of assistance.
Catalytic Converter H020A01HP-D
!
All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with oxidation type catalytic converter toreduce the carbon monoxide, hydro- carbons and particulate contained in the exhaust gas.
WARNING :
o Use diesel only.
o Maintain your engine in good con- dition. Extremely high converter temperatures can result from im- proper operation of the electricalignition or electronic fuel injec- tion system.
