B270A01A-AAT BRAKE PAD WEAR WARNING SOUND The front disc brake pads have wear indicators that should make a high- pitched squealing or scraping noise when new pads are needed. The sound may come and go or be heard all the time when the vehicle is moving. It may also be heard when the brake pedal is pushed down firmly. Excessive rotor damage will result if the worn pads are not replaced. See your Hyundai dealer immediately.
B290A02TB-DAT
Engine Coolant Tempera-
ture Indicator
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The engine coolantis under pressure and could erupt and cause severe burns. Wait until the engine is cool before removingthe radiator cap.
!
B900A01A-GAT ACOUSTIC WARNING SOUND (If Installed) The acoustic warning chime sounds when the tail lights are on and the door in driver side is open. This prevents the battery from discharging when the car is left with the tail lights on. The chime sounds until the tail lights are turned off.
The indicator shows the temperature of the engine coolant when the ignition switch is ON.The red indicator illuminates if the tem- perature of the engine coolant is above 120±3°C (248±5.5°F).Do not continue driving with an over- heated engine. If your vehicle over- heats, refer to “Overheating” in the In-dex. NOTE: If the red engine temperature indica- tor illuminates, it indicates overheat-ing that may damage the engine.
The needle on the gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank. The fuel capacity is given in Section 9.

!CAUTION:
Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. If you run out of fuel, it could cause the engine to misfire and re-sult in excessive loading of the cata- lytic converter.

C160G01A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov- ered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If thelock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with careto avoid burning your fingers. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobilizer key is from -40°C to80°C. If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C to open a frozen lock, it may cause damage to the tran-sponder in its head.
C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if neces- sary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are notcracked, 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. SeeSection 9 for recommendations. If you aren't sure what weight oil you should use, consult your Hyundai dealer.
C160C01A-AAT
Use High Quality Ethylene Glycol 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. C160D01A-DAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery and charging system. Visually inspect the battery and cables as de-scribed in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by your Hyundai dealer or a service station.

C190C02S-DAT Trailer Brakes If your trailer is equipped with a braking system, make sure it conforms to fed-eral and/or local regulations and that it is properly installed and operating cor- rectly. NOTE: If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will require more frequent main- tenance due to the additional load.See "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-4.
!
C190B01FC-DAT Trailer Tow Bars Select the proper tow bar and ball combination, making sure that its loca-tion is compatible with that of the trailer or vehicle being towed. We recom- mend only genuine Hyundai tow bars(the tow bars are made and tested in Australia for local conditions). Use a quality non-equalising hitch which dis-tributes the tongue load uniformly throughout the chassis. Maintain 4% of the trailer load on thetrailer tongue for dead weight hitches. Tongue loads can be increased or decreased by redistributing the load inthe trailer. This can be verified by checking the total weight of the loaded trailer and then checking the load onthe tongue.
WARNING:
Improperly loading your car andtrailer can serious affect its steer-ing and braking performance caus- ing a crash in which you may be seriously injured. CAUTION:
o Never connect a trailer brake sys- tem directly to the vehicle brake system.
o When towing a trailer on steep grades (in excess of 6%) pay closeattention to the engine coolant temperature gauge to ensure theengine does not overheat.
C180A01A-AAT USE OF LIGHTS Check your lights regularly for correct operation and always keep them clean.When driving during the day in condi- tions of poor visibility, it is helpful to drive with headlights on low beam.This enables you to be seen as well as to see. C190A01A-DAT TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWING If you are considering towing with your car, you should first check with your State Department of Motor Vehicles to determine their legal requirements.Since laws vary from state to state the requirements for towing trailers, cars, or other types of vehicles or apparatusmay differ. Ask your Hyundai dealer for further details before towing.
!
CAUTION
Do not do any towing with your car during its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in order to allow the engine to prop- erly break in. Failure to heed thiscaution may result in serious en- gine or transaxle damage.

3- 4 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
!
!
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. This can allow coolant to be blown out of the open- ing and cause serious burns.
6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheating, wait until the engine temperature has returned to nor- mal. Then, if the engine coolant has been lost, carefully remove the ra-diator cap and add engine coolant to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheating. Ifoverheating happens again, call aHyundai dealer for assistance.
D030A01A-DAT IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss ofpower, or hear loud pinging or knock- ing, the engine is probably too hot. If this 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. Ifthe air conditioning is on, turn it off.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables
in the reverse order of attachment.
If you do not know why your battery became discharged (because the lights were left on, etc.), have the chargingsystem checked by your Hyundai dealer. 3. If coolant is running out under the car
or steam is coming out from the bonnet, stop the engine. Do notopen the bonnet until the coolant has stopped running or the steam- ing has stopped. If there is no visibleloss of coolant and no steam, leave the engine running and check to be sure the engine cooling fan is oper-ating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
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 engine coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (If the air conditioning hadbeen in use, it is normal for cold water to be draining from it when you stop).
WARNING:
While the engine is running, keephair, hands and clothing away frommoving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury. 5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or engine coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call thenearest Hyundai dealer for assis- tance.
