D010A01A-AAT
D010D01CM-AAT If Engine Stalls While Driving
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.
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or crossing
o 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.
o If your vehicle has a manual transaxle not equipped with the ignition lockswitch, the vehicle can move for- ward by shifting to the 2 (second) or3 (third) gear and then turning the starter without depressing the clutch pedal.
D010C02A-DAT If Engine Turns Over Normally but Does Not Start
1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the "OFF" position,
check all connectors at ignition coils and spark plugs(For Petrol Engine) or check all connectors at glow plug and glow plug relay(For Diesel En-gine). Reconnect any that may be disconnected or loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine
room.
4. If engine still refuses to start, call a
Hyundai dealer or seek other quali- fied assistance.
WARNING:
If the engine will not start, do notpush or pull the car to start it. Thiscould result in a collision or cause other damage. In addition, push or pull starting may cause the catalyticconverter to be overloaded and cre- ate a fire hazard.
OCM0550162. Check the battery connections to be
sure they are clean and tight.
3. Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate the starter, the battery is discharged.
4. Check the starter connections to be sure they are securely tightened.
5. Do not push or pull the vehicle to start it. See instructions for "Jump Starting" on the following pages.

JUMP STARTING
D020A02A-AAT
WARNING:
The gas produced by the battery during the jump-start operation ishighly explosive. If these instruc- tions are not followed exactly, seri- ous personal injury and damage tothe vehicle may occur! If you are not sure how to follow this procedure, seek qualified assistance. Automo-bile batteries contain sulfuric acid. This is poisonous and highly corro- sive. When jump starting, wear pro-tective glasses and be careful not to get acid on yourself, your clothing or on the car. o If you should accidentally get acid on
your 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 wa-ter to 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. If youcannot 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.
3. Attach the clamps of the jumper cable in the exact order shown on theprevious page. That is, first, attachone clamp of the jumper cable to the positive (+) post or cable of the discharged battery. Then attach theother end of the same cable to the positive (+) post or cable of the booster battery. Next, using theother cable, attach one clamp to the negative (-) post or cable of the booster battery. Then attach the otherend of that cable to a solid metal part of the engine away from the battery. Do not connect the cable to anymoving part.
4. Start the engine in the car with the
booster battery and let it run for a fewminutes. This will help to assure that the booster battery is fully charged. During the jumping operation, run theengine in this vehicle at about 2000 rpm.

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
4. Check to see if the water pump drivebelt 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. (If the air conditioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to bedraining from it when you stop).
D030A02TB-DAT If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss of power, or hear loud pinging or knocking, the engine is probably too hot. If thishappens to you, 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 parking 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 underthe bonnet, 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. WARNING:
While the engine is running, keephands and clothing away from mov-ing parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. Start the engine in the car with the
discharged battery using the normal starting procedure. After the enginestarts, leave the jumper cables con- nected and let the engine run at fast idle or about 2000 rpm for severalminutes.
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.

5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the near- est Hyundai dealer for assistance. WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot. This can allowcoolant to be blown out of the open- ing and cause serious burns.
!WARNING (DIESEL ONLY):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 secondsafter shutting off engine. High pres- sure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to highpressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury,if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not move than 30cm closer to the ECU or wiringharness within the engine room while engine is running, since the high currents in the Common Rail systemproduce considerable magnetic fields. 6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, care- fully add coolant to the reservoir(page 6-10) 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 a Hyundai dealer for assistance.
CAUTION:
Serious loss of coolant indicatesthere is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundai dealer.

o The wheel diagonally opposite from the one to be changed should be blocked. 1. Remove the spare tyre and remove
the jack and tool from luggage com-partment.
NOTE: The spare tyre is located underneath the car.
WARNING:
Your vehicle is equipped with tyresdesigned to provide for safe ride andhandling capability. Do not use a size and type of tyre and wheel that is different from the onethat was originally installed on your vehicle. It can affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, whichcould lead to handling failure or rollover and serious injury. When replacing the tyres, be sure toequip all four tyres with the tyre and wheel of the same size, type, tread, brand and load-carrying capacity. Ifyou nevertheless decide to equip your vehicle with any tyre/wheel com- bination not recommended byHyundai for off-road driving, you should not use these tyres for high- way driving. o Allow the vehicle speed to decrease,
without using the brakes if possible.
o Pull off the road or into the curb where it is safe to do so and stop thevehicle. Turn off the engine.
o Activate the hazard warning lamp, apply the parking brake and placethe transaxle in gear ("P" position forAutomatic Transaxle).
o Passengers should not remain in-
side the vehicle during wheel chang-ing.
