WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
!
To do this, you will need more ground
clearance than is required to remove
the flat tire.
D060G02Y-AAT6. Changing Wheels
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove
them with your fingers. Slide the wheel
off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot
roll away. To put the wheel on the hub,
pick up the spare tire, line up the holes
with the studs and slide the wheel onto
them. If this is difficult, tip the wheel
slightly and get the top hole in the
wheel lined up with the top stud. Then
jiggle the wheel back and forth until the
wheel can be slid over the other studs. WARNING:
Do not get under the car when it is
supported by the jack! This is very
dangerous as the vehicle could fall
and cause serious injury or death.
No one should stay in the car while
the jack is being used.
!
WARNING:
Wheels and wheel covers may have
sharp edges. Handle them carefully
to avoid possible severe injury.
Before putting the wheel into place,
be sure that there is nothing on the
hub or wheel (such as mud, tar,
gravel, etc.) that prevents the wheel
from fitting solidly against the hub.
If there is, remove it.

CAUTION:
An open fuse indicates that there is a
problem in the electrical circuit. If you
replace a fuse and it blows as soon as
the accessory is turned on, the prob-
lem is serious and should be referred to
a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and re-
pair. Never replace a fuse with anything
except a fuse with the same or a lower
amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse
could cause damage and create a fire
hazard.
!
NOTE:
See page 6-30 for the fuse panel de-
scriptions.

CHECKING THE BATTERY!
G210A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Batteries can be dangerous! When
working with batteries, carefully ob-
serve the following precautions to avoid
serious injuries.o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the
affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assis-
tance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out
your eyes with water and get medical
assistance as soon as possible. While
you are being driven to get medical
assistance, continue to rinse your eyes
by using a sponge or soft cloth saturat-
ed with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a
large quantity of water or milk followed
by milk of magnesia, eat a raw egg or
drink vegetable oil. Get medical assis-
tance as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged (either
by a battery charger or by the vehicle's
alternator), they produce explosive gases.
Always observe these warnings to pre-
vent injuries from occurring:
o Charge batteries only in a well venti-
lated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smok-
ing in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.

The fluid in the battery contains a strong
solution of sulfuric acid, which is poison-
ous and highly corrosive. Be careful not
to spill it on yourself or the car. If you do
spill battery fluid on yourself, immediately
do the following:
G210B05A-AATChecking the BatteryKeep the battery clean. Any evidence of
corrosion around the battery posts or ter-
minals should be removed using a solu-
tion of household baking soda and warm
water. After the battery terminals are dry,
cover them with a light coating of grease.

G220B01A-AATChecking Engine Cooling FanThe engine cooling fan should come on
automatically if the engine coolant tem-
perature is high.WARNING:
The radiator fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may some-
times operate even when the engine is
not running. Use extreme caution when
working near the blades of the cooling
fan, so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blade. As the coolant tem-
perature decreases the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal con-
dition.G220C01A-AATChecking Condenser Cooling FanThe condenser cooling fan should come
on automatically whenever the air condi-
tioner is in operation.CHECKING ELECTRIC

!
Wear eye protection when
charging or working near a
battery.
Always provide ventilation
when working in an enclosed
space.
An inappropriately disposed
battery can be harmful to the
environment and human
health. Dispose the battery
according to your local law(s)
or regulation.
o When lifting a plastic-cased battery,
excessive pressure on the case may
cause battery acid to leak, resulting
in personal injury. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on oppo-
site corners.
o Never attempt to charge the battery
when the battery cables are con-
nected.
o The electrical ignition system works
with high voltage.
Never touch these components with
the engine running or the ignition
switched on.
WARNING:
Always read the following in-
structions carefully when han-
dling 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 and
may explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of the reach
of children because batteries
contain highly corrosive SUL-
FURIC ACID. Do not allow bat-
tery acid to contact your skin,
eyes, clothing or paint finish.
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 cloth until
medical attention is received.
If electrolyte gets on your skin,
thoroughly wash the con-
tacted area.
If you feel a pain or a burning
sensation, get medical atten-
tion immediately.
