FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI 1- 39
B260J01S-DAT
Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light should come on when the ignition is turned on, then go out when theengine is running. If the light stays on while the engine is running, there is a malfunction in the electrical chargingsystem. If the light comes on while you are driving, stop, turn off the engine and check under the bonnet. First,make certain the alternator drive belt is in place. If it is, check the tension of the belt.If the belt is satisfactory, have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer. B260L01A-GAT
Door Ajar Warning Light

B260N02FC-DAT Malfunction Indicator Light
This light illuminates when there is a malfunction of an engine electrical re- lated component, and the system isnot functioning properly. This light will illuminate when the ignition key is tuned to the "ON" position, and will go outafter the engine start. If it illuminates while driving, or does not illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the"ON" position, take your car to your nearest authorised Hyundai dealer and have the system checked.
CAUTION:
If the drive belt (alternator belt) isloose or breaks while the engine isrunning, engine could overheat be- cause this belt also drives the water pump.

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.
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.

6- 18 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever over-loaded, thus preventing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This could be caused by a short in the system draw-ing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer de- termine the cause, repair the systemand replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a fuse box for easy inspection. CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, neveruse anything but a new fusible linkwith the same or lower amperage rating. Never use a piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link. Thiscould result in serious damage and create a fire hazard.

G190A01A-GAT CHECKING DRIVE BELTS Drive belts should be checked periodi- cally for proper tension and adjusted ifnecessary. At the same time, belts should be examined for cracks, wear, fraying or other evidence of deteriora-tion and replaced if necessary. Belt routing should also be checked to be sure there is no interference be-tween the belts and other parts of the engine. After a belt is replaced, the new belt should be adjusted againafter two or three weeks to eliminate slack resulting from initial stretching after use. HTB186
