Engine Coolant Temperature
Warning Light
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. The engine coolant is un-
der pressure and could erupt and cause
severe burns. Wait until the engine is
cool before removing the radiator cap.
!
This warning light shows the temperature
of the engine coolant when the ignition
switch is ON. The warning light illumi-
nates if the temperature of the engine
coolant is above 253.4±5.4°F (123±3°C).
If the warning light illuminates, pull over
and stop as soon as possible and turn off
the engine. Then open the hood and
check the coolant level (See "If the en-
gine overheats" on the page 3-4.) and the
water pump drive belt. If you suspect
cooling system trouble, have your cool-
ing system checked by a Hyundai dealer
as soon as possible.NOTE:If the engine coolant temperature warn-
ing light illuminates, it indicates over-
heating that may damage the engine.

CAUTION:
Make sure that the support rod has been
released prior to closing the hood.
!
Before closing the hood, return the sup-
port rod to its clip to prevent it from rattling.
Lower the hood until it is about 1 ft. (30
cm) above the closed position and let it
drop. Make sure that it locks into place.

!
WARNING:
o Always double check to be sure that
the hood is firmly latched before driv-
ing away. If it is not latched, the hood
could fly open while the vehicle is
being driven, causing a total loss of
visibility, which might result in an
accident.
o The support rod must be inserted
completely into the hole provided in
the hood whenever you inspect the
engine compartment. This will pre-
vent the hood from falling and possi-
bly injuring you.
o Do not move the vehicle with the
hood in the raised position, as vision
is obstructed and the hood could fall
or be damaged.

34WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATSD030A02A-AATIf your temperature gauge indicates over-
heating, you experience a loss of power,
or hear loud pinging or knocking, the
engine is probably too hot. If this hap-
pens, 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 conditioner is on, turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car
or steam is coming out from under-
neath the hood, stop the engine. Do
not open the hood until the coolant
has stopped running or the steaming
has stopped. If there is no visible loss
of coolant and no steam, leave the
engine running and check to be sure
the engine cooling fan is operating. 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
coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses
or under the car. (If the air conditioner
had been in use, it is normal for cold
water to be draining from it when you
stop). 3. Attach the clamps of the jumper cable
in the exact location shown on the
previous page. First, attach one clamp
of the jumper cable to the positive (+)
post or cable of the discharged battery.
Then attach the other end of the same
cable to the positive (+) post or cable
of the booster battery. Next, using the
other cable, attach one clamp to the
negative (-) post or cable of the booster
battery. Then attach the other end of
that cable to a solid metal part of the
engine away from the battery. Do not
connect the cable to any moving part.
4. Start the engine in the car with the
booster battery and let it run for a few
minutes. This will help to assure that
the booster battery is fully charged.
During the jumping operation, run the
engine in this vehicle at about 2000
rpm.
5. Start the engine in the car with the
discharged battery using the normal
starting procedure. After the engine
starts, leave the jumper cables con-
nected and let the engine run at fast
idle or about 2000 rpm for several
minutes.
6. Carefully remove the jumper cables in
the reverse order of attachment.If you do not know why your battery be-
came discharged (because the lights were
left on, etc.), have the charging system
checked by your Hyundai dealer.

REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT
BULBS!
G260A01MC-AATBefore attempting to replace a light bulb,
be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF"
position.
The next paragraph shows how to reach
the light bulbs so they may be changed.
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb
with one of the same number and watt-
age rating.
See page 6-29 for the wattage descrip-
tions.
CAUTION:
o Keep the lamps out of contact with
petroleum products, such as oil,
gasoline, etc.
o If you don't have necessary tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise,
consult your authorized Hyundai
dealer.
G270A02MC-GATHeadlight, Front Turn Signal Light
and Front Fog Light
CAUTION:
o The headlight aiming should be
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer after replacing the headlight
bulbs.
o After heavy, driving rain or washing,
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature differ-
ence between the lamp inside and
outside. This is similar to the con-
densation on your windows inside
your vehicle during the rain and
doesn’t indicate a problem with your
vehicle. If the water leaks into the
lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle
checked by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
