FUSIBLE LINKS
SG200A1-E The fusible link prevents damage to the wiring harness in the event of an electrical system malfunction. Failureof a fusiblelink is indicative of a seri- ous overload condition having oc- curred and therefore the electricalsystem should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before a replacement link is fitted. WARNING:
Under no circumstances should a
fusible link be replaced with any-thing other than a new link of thesame rating. The use of higher rated links or other means of con- necting the circuit will create apotential fire hazard.

o If battery electrolyte is spilled ontoskin 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 ant-acid (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.
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 ventilationwhen working in an en-closed space.
o When lifting a plastic-cased bat- tery, excessive pressure on thecase 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.!WARNING:
Always read the following instructions carefully when handling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the battery.Hydrogen, which is a highlycombustible gas, is alwayspresent 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.

!
YG210A1-E
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Do not touch the radiator fan until it is completely stopped.
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 conditioneris in operation. YG220A1-E Power Steering Hoses It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hoses could cause premature failure.
HGK5011
G230A01GK-EAT 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. NOTE:
o The power steering pump may be
noisy when the engine is first started in the extreme cold (-20°C/ -4°F). This noise is not abnormal and will stop as the engine warmsup. If the power steering pump continues to be noisy after the engine has warmed up, have itinspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer.
o Do not check whilst the engine is running. Do not start when powersteering fluid reservoir is empty.
