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.

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.

!!
WARNING:
While the engine is running, keep hands,
long hair and clothing away from mov-
ing parts such as the fan and drive belts
to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or coolant is leaking out, stop the en-
gine immediately and call the nearest
Hyundai dealer for assistance.
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot. This may result in
coolant being blown out of the opening
and cause serious burns.
!
6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine tem-
perature has returned to normal. Then,
if coolant has been lost, carefully add
water to the reservoir (Page 6-8) to
bring the fluid level in the reservoir up
to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for
further signs of overheating. If over-
heating happens again, call a Hyundai
dealer for assistance.
CAUTION:
Serious loss of coolant indicates there
is a leak in the cooling system and this
should be checked as soon as possible
by a Hyundai dealer.

CHECKING AND CHANGING
THE ENGINE COOLANT!
G050A01TG-AAT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot. When the engine is
hot, the engine coolant is under pres-
sure and may erupt through the open-
ing if the cap is removed. You could be
seriously burned if you do not observe
this precaution. Do not remove the ra-
diator cap until the radiator is cool to
the touch.
NOTE:
It is recommended that the engine cool-
ant should be changed by an authorized
Hyundai dealer.
G050B01A-AATRecommended Engine CoolantWhen adding coolant, use only deion-
ized water or soft water for your vehicle
and never mix hard water in the coolant
filled at the factory. An improper coolant
mixture can result in serious malfunction
or engine damage.
G050C01TG-AATTo Check the Coolant LevelThe coolant level can be seen on the side
of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level
of the coolant should be between the "L"
and "F" lines on the reservoir when the
engine is cool.
