Battery recharging
Yo u r v e h i c l e h a s a m a i n t e n a n c e - f r e e ,
calcium-based battery.
•If the battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
•If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.OLMB073072
■Example
When recharging the battery,
observe the following precau-
tions:
•The battery must be removed
from the vehicle and placed in
an area with good ventilation.
•Do not allow cigarettes, sparks,
or flame near the battery.
•Watch the battery during
charging, and stop or reduce
the charging rate if the battery
cells begin gassing (boiling)
violently or if the temperature
of the electrolyte of any cell
exceeds 49°C (120°F).
•Wear eye protection when
checking the battery during
charging.

Maintenance
Inner panel fuse replacement
1. Turn the engine and all other
switches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.
3. Pull the suspected fuse straight
out. Use the removal tool provided
in the engine compartment fuse
panel.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it
if it is blown.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same
rating, and make sure it fits tightly
in the clips.
If it fits loosely, we recommend that
you consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Information
If you do not have a spare, use a
fuse of the same rating from a cir-
cuit you may not need for operat-
ing the vehicle, such as the cigar
lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the
fuses are OK, check the fuse block in
the engine compartment. If a fuse is
blown, it must be replaced with the
same rating.
