B260J01S-GAT Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light should come on when the ignition isturned on, then go out when the engine is running. If the light stays on while the engine is running, there is a malfunctionin the electrical charging system. If the light comes on while you are driving, stop, turn off the engine and checkunder the hood. First, make certain the generator drive belt is in place. If it is, check the tension of the belt.And then, have the system checked by your Hyundai dealer.
CAUTION:
If the drive belt (generator belt) is loosen, broken, or mission while the vehicle is driving, there may be a serious malfunction, engine couldoverheat because this belt also drives the water pump.!
Warning Light Operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warn- ing light should come on when the parking brake is applied and the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or "START".After the engine is started, the light should go out when the parking brake is released.If the parking brake is not applied, the warning light should come on when the ignition switch is turned to "ON" or"START", then go out when the engine starts. If the light comes on at any other time,you should slow the vehicle and bring it to a complete stop in a safe location off the roadway. The brake fluid level warn-ing light indicates that the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder is low and hydraulic brake fluid conforming toDOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications should be added. After adding fluid, if no other trouble is found, the car should beimmediately and carefully driven to a Hyundai dealer for inspection. If further trouble is experienced, the vehicleshould not be driven at all but taken to a dealer by a professional towing ser- vice or some other safe method. Your Hyundai is equipped with dual- diagonal braking systems. This means you still have braking on two wheelseven if one of the dual systems should fail. With only one of the dual systems working, more than normal pedal traveland greater pedal pressure are required to stop the car. Also, the car will not stop in as short a distance with only halfof the brake system working. If the brakes fail while you are driving, shift to a lower gear for additional engine brak-ing and stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so.

Diesel Preheat Indicator Light
The indicator light illuminates amber when the ignition switch is placed at the"ON" position. The engine can be started after the preheat indicator light goes off.

3 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

!
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
D030A02TB-AAT 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 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 engine coolant is running out un- der the car or steam is coming outfrom underneath the hood, stop theengine. Do not open the hood until the engine coolant has stopped running or the steaming has stopped.If there is no visible loss of engine coolant and no steam, leave the engine running and check to be surethe engine cooling fan is operating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
5. Start the engine in the car with the
discharged battery using the nor-mal starting procedure. After the engine starts, leave the jumper cables connected and let the enginerun at fast idle or about 2,000 rpm for several minutes.
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 charging system checked by your Hyundaidealer. 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. (If the air conditioning had been in use, it is normal for cold water to bedraining from it when you stop).
WARNING:
While the engine is running, keephair, hands, and clothing away from moving parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.

G210B01Y-GAT Checking the Battery Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corrosion around the battery postsor terminals should be removed using a solution of household baking soda and warm water. After the battery ter-minals are dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and get immedi-ate medical attention. If pos- sible, continue to apply water with a sponge or clothuntil medical attention is re- ceived. If electrolyte gets on yourskin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burn-ing sensation, get medical attention immediately. Wear eye protection whencharging or working near a battery. Always provide ventilationwhen working in an en- closed space. An inappropriately disposedbattery can be harmful to the environment and human health. Dispose the batteryaccording to your local law(s) or regulation.
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 highly combustible gas, is always present in battery cells andmay explode if ignited. Keep batteries out of the reach of children becausebatteries contain highly cor- rosive SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acid to con-tact your skin, eyes, cloth- ing or paint finish.!
o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medi- cal assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse
out your eyes with water and getmedical assistance as soon as pos- sible. While you are being driven toget medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk fol-lowed by milk of magnesia, eat araw egg or drink vegetable oil. Get medical assistance as soon as pos- sible.
While batteries are being charged (ei-ther by a battery charger or by thevehicle's alternator), they produce ex- plosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries from oc-curring:
o Charge batteries only in a well ven- tilated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or
smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.
