Off Season Maintenance
The air conditioning must be run for ten minutes or so weekly during peri- ods when the system would not nor- mally be used to ensure that thecompressor and seals are lubricated. If this precaution is not observed the compressor seals may become stuckto the compressor shaft and dam- aged when the system is next used resulting in a loss of refrigerant anddamage to the compressor. HPG140B1-E
Compressor Drive Belt The air conditioning compressor drivebelt should be checked to ensurefreedom from damage or excessive wear and correct tension. The belt tension is correct when the belt de-flects by about 0.3 inches (8 mm) when a force of 98 N is applied to the belt halfway between the compressorand crankshaft pulleys. Adjustment of the belt should be entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer. NOTE: The compressor drive belt tension for diesel engine is adjusted auto- matically.

To check the steering wheel free-play, stop the car with the wheels pointedstraight ahead and gently move the steering wheel back and forth. Use very light finger pressure and be sen-sitive to changes in resistance that mark the limits of the free-play. If the free-play is greater than speci- fied, have it inspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer and adjusted or repaired if necessary. YG170A1-E
Clutch Pedal
The clutch pedal freeplay must lie
within the limits shown. Incorrect free-play can result in premature wear of the clutch linings and release bearing. Excessive free-play can result in gearselection difficulties. If the free-play is incorrect, the clutch
cable should be adjusted by a Hyundaiauthorised repairer. G170A01A-EAT Brake Pedal With the engine off, press down on the brake pedal several times to reducethe vacuum in the brake booster.Then, using your hand, press downslowly on the brake pedal until youfeel a change in resistance. This is the brake pedal free-play. The free- play should be within the limits speci-fied in the illustration. If it is not, have it inspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer and adjusted or repaired ifnecessary.CHECKING THE FREE-PLAY

You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine run- ning, have your helper press down onthe brake pedal several times and then hold it down with a force of about 490 N (50 Kg, 110 lbs). The brakepedal clearance is the distance from the top surface of the brake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under the floormat.If the brake pedal clearance is notwithin the limits specified in the illus- tration, have it inspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer and ad-justed or repaired if necessary.

CHECKING ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
YG200A1-E
1. With the engine turned off, check the belts for cracks, fraying, or excessive wear. Replace the belt ifit is in poor condition.
2. With your thumb (with a force
approx. 10 kg) press on each beltmidway between the pulleys. Each belt should deflect no more than the amount shown in figure.

1. Loosen the adusting bolts just
enough so that the components can be moved.
2. Whilst pulling outward on the pry bar
or screwdriver, test the belt deflec-tion with your thumb.
3. After tightening the adjusting bolts, be sure to recheck the belt tension. Overtightening drive belts can cause excessive wear and failurein driven components and belts.
WARNING:
The drive belt should be checked when the engine is cool or cold to avoid burning yourself on hot en-gine. The fusible link prevents damage tothe wiring harness in the event of anelectrical system malfunction. Failure of a fusible link is indicative of a serious overload condition havingoccurred and therefore the electrical system should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before areplacement link is fitted.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should afusible link be replaced with any- thing other than a new link of the same rating. The use of higherrated links or other means of con- necting the circuit will create a potential fire hazard.

DG200B1-E INDIVIDUAL CIRCUIT FUSES The fuse box containing the individual circuit fuses is located on the lowerportion of the dashboard adjacent to the bonnet release. The fuse box cover is removed by pushing lightlyand then releasing the lid. A fuse rating grid will be found on the re- verse side of the cover. In the eventof fuse failure, the fuse should be replaced with one of equivalent rat- ing. A fuse removal tool is providedwithin the fuse box to facilitate re- placement. In the event of a replacement fuse
failing shortly after installation a mal-function within the circuit protected by that fuse is indicated. The circuitshould be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer at the first avail- able opportunity. WARNING:
The use of replacement fuses hav-ing a higher rating than specifiedor other means of connecting the circuit will create a potential fire hazard. NOTE: See page 6-36 for the fuse panel descriptions.

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.
