C160C01A-AAT Use High Quality Ethylene Gly- col Coolant Your Hyundai is delivered with high quality ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It is the only type ofcoolant that should be used because it helps prevent corrosion in the cooling system, lubricates the water pump andprevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish your coolant in accor- dance with the maintenance schedulein Section 5. Before winter, have your coolant tested to assure that its freez- ing point is sufficient for the tempera-tures anticipated during the winter.
It should be noted that installing tyrechains on the tyre will provide a greaterdriving force, but will not prevent side skids. NOTE: Tyre chains are not legal in all states. Check state laws before fitting tyrechains.WINTER DRIVING
C160B01A-DAT Snowy or Icy Conditions To drive your vehicle in deep snow, it may be necessary to use snow tyres or to install tyre chains on your tyres. If snow tyre are needed, it is necessaryto select tyres equivalent in size and type to the original equipment tyres. Failure to do so may adversely affectthe safety and handling of your car. Furthermore, speeding, rapid accel- eration, sudden brake applications, andsharp turns are potentially very haz- ardous practices. During deceleration, use engine brak-ing to the fullest extent. Sudden brake applications on snowy or icy roads may cause skids to occur. You need to
keep sufficient distance between the vehicle in operation in front and your vehicle. Also, apply the brake gently.
C160A01A-DAT The more severe weather conditions of winter result in greater wear and other problems. To minimise the prob- lems of winter driving, you should fol-low these suggestions:
C160F02A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs and replace them if necessary. Also check allignition wiring and components to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during cold weather. See Section 9 for recommendations. If youaren't sure what weight oil you should use, consult your Hyundai dealer.
C160D01A-DAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery and charging system. Visuallyinspect the battery and cables as de- scribed in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by yourHyundai dealer or a service station.

JUMP STARTING
D010D01A-AAT If the Engine Stalls While Driv- ing
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keep- ing a straight line. Move cautiously off the road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try to start the engine again. If your
vehicle will not start, contact a Hyundai dealer or seek other quali- fied assistance.
WARNING:
The gas produced by the battery during the jump-start operation is highly explosive. If these instruc-tions are not followed exactly, seri- ous personal injury and damage to the vehicle may occur! If you arenot sure how to follow this proce- dure, seek qualified assistance. Automobile batteries contain sul-furic acid. This is poisonous and highly corrosive. When jump start- ing, wear protective glasses and becareful not to get acid on yourself, your clothing or on the car.
D020A02A-AAT
Discharged battery
Booster battery
o If you should accidentally get acid onyour skin or in your eyes, immedi- ately remove any contaminated cloth- ing and flush the area with clear water for at least 15 minutes. Thenpromptly obtain medical attention. If you must be transported to an emer- gency facility, continue to apply waterto the affected area with a sponge or cloth.
o The gas produced by the battery during the jump-start operation ishighly explosive. Do not smoke or allow a spark or open flame in thevicinity.
o The battery being used to provide
the jump start must be 12-volts. Ifyou cannot determine that it is a 12- volt battery, do not attempt to use it for the jump start.
o To jump start a car with a discharged battery, follow this procedure ex-actly:
1. If the booster battery is installed in another vehicle, be sure the twovehicles are not touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary lights and
accessories in both vehicles.
F020100AUN-EU If the Engine Stalls at a Cross- road or Crossing If the engine stalls at a crossroad or crossing, set the shift lever in the N(Neutral) position and then push the vehicle to a safe place.

3 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
4IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
D030A01A-DAT If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knock- ing, the engine is probably too hot. Ifthis happens, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the hand brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from thebonnet, stop the engine. Do not open the bonnet until the coolant hasstopped running or the steaming has stopped. If there is no visible loss of coolant and no steam, leave theengine running and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engineoff.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive
belt is missing. If it is not missing,check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfactory, check for coolant leaking from theradiator, hoses or under the car.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables
in the reverse order of attachment.
If you do not know why your batterybecame discharged (because the lightswere left on, etc.), have the charging system checked by your Hyundai dealer.
3. Attach the clamps of the jumper
cable in the exact order shown in theillustration. That is, first, attach one clamp of the jumper cable to the positive (+) post or cable of thedischarged battery. Then attach the other end of the same cable to the positive (+) post or cable of thebooster battery. Next, using the other cable, attach one clamp to the negative (-) post or cable of thebooster battery. Then attach the other end of that cable to a solid metal part of the engine away fromthe battery. Do not connect the cable to any moving part.
4. Start the engine in the car with the booster battery and let it run for afew minutes. This will help to as- sure that the booster battery is fullycharged. During the jumping opera- tion, run the engine in this vehicle at about 2,000 rpm.
5. Start the engine in the car with the discharged battery using the normalstarting procedure. After the enginestarts, leave the jumper cables con- nected and let the engine run at fast idle or about 2,000 rpm for severalminutes.
