CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use
anything but a new fusible link with the
same or lower amperage rating. Never
use a piece of wire or a higher-rated
fusible link. This could result in serious
damage and create a fire hazard. The parking brake pedal should be
checked periodically for proper stroke. If
you feel loose in the parking brake pedal
when the parking brake is engaged, have
your parking brake adjusted by an autho-
rized Hyundai dealer.

CAUTION:
If the parking brake pedal is not adjusted
properly, the vehicle may roll backwards
when parking on a steep hill.

G200A01A-AATReplacing a Fusible LinkA fusible link will melt if the electrical cir-
cuits from the battery are ever overloaded,
thus preventing damage to the entire wir-
ing harness. (This could be caused by a
short in the system drawing too much cur-
rent.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai
dealer determine the cause, repair the
system and replace the fusible link. The
fusible links are located in a relay box in the
engine compartment for easy inspection.

G200B01NF-AATReplacing Accessory Fuse
G200B01TG-A
The fuse box for the lights and other elec-
trical accessories will be found on the left
side of the instrument panel. 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 proce-
dure:
1. Turn off the ignition and all other
switches.

Good Open-Replace
3. Be sure to check all other fuses, even if
you find one that appears to have
opened.
G200B02NF
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 relay and fuse box of
the engine room to simplify this opera-
tion).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 dealer. 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 temporarily get
along without (the radio or cigarette
lighter, for example). Always remember
to replace the borrowed fuse.
