❈The actual battery label in the vehicle
may differ from the illustration.
1. MF45L BCI : The HYUNDAI model name of battery
2. 12V : The nominal voltage
3. 45Ah(20HR) : The nominal capac ity (in Ampere hours)
4. 80RC : The nominal reser ve capacity (in min.)
5. 410CCA : The cold test current in amperes by SAE
6. 328A : The cold test current in amperes by EN
Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance free,
calcium based battery.
• If the battery becomes dischargedin 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.
Battery Replacing
Replacing a Battery is required pre
cautionary measures.
We recommend that you consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTICE
•Never attempt to recharge the
battery when the battery cables
are connected.
•The electrical ignition system

FuSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro
tected from electrical overload dam
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bol
ster, the other in the engine compart
ment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces
sories, or controls do not work, check
the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse
has blown, the element inside the
fuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not
work, first check the driver’s side
fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, dis
connect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with
one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this
indicates an electrical problem. Avoid
using the system involved and imme
diately consult an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, SlowBlow type and multi fuse for higheramperage ratings.
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.
Information
The actual fuse/relay panel label may
differ from equipped items. i

Fuse replacement
•Never replace a fuse with any
thing but another fuse of the
same rating.
•A higher capacity fuse could
cause damage and possibly a
fire.
•Never install a wire or aluminum
foil instead of the proper fuse
even as a temporary repair. It
may cause extensive wiring
damage and a possible fire.
