•When lifting a plastic-cased
battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause battery
acid to leak, resulting in per-
sonal injury. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
•Never attempt to recharge the
battery when the battery
cables are connected.
•The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage.
Never touch these compo-
nents with the engine running

Battery dangers
Always read the follow-
ing instructions carefully
when handling a battery.
Keep lighted cigarettes
and all other flames or
sparks away from the
battery.
Hydrogen, a highly com-
bustible gas, is always
present in battery cells
and may explode if ignit-
ed.
Keep batteries out of the
reach of children because
batteries contain highly
corrosive
SULFURIC ACID.
Do not allow battery acid
to contact your skin, eyes,
clothing or paint finish.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is pro-
tected from electrical overload dam-
age by fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels,
one located in the driver’s side panel
bolster, the other in the engine com-
partment 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 a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
Four kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, multi fuse and fusible link
for higher amperage ratings.
✽NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label
may differ from equipped items.
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
cause a fire.
•Never install a wire or alu-
minum foil instead of the prop-
er fuse - even as a temporary
repair. It may cause extensive
wiring damage and a possible
fire.
WARNING
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove
fuses because it may cause a
short circuit and damage the
system.

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 a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
If you do not have a spare, use a
fuse of the same rating from a circuit
you may not need for operating the
vehicle, such as the cigar lighter
fuse.
ODH074031R
•When replacing a blown fuse
or relay with a new one, make
sure the new fuse or relay fits
tightly into the clips. The
incomplete fastening fuse or
relay may cause the vehicle
wiring and electric systems
damage and a possible fire.
•Do not remove fuses, relays
and terminals fastened with
bolts or nuts. The fuses,
relays and terminals may be
fastened incompletely, and it
may cause a possible fire. If
fuses, relays and terminals
fastened with bolts or nuts are
blown, we recommend that
you consult a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
•Do not input any other objects
except fuses or relays into
fuse/relay terminals such as a
screwdriver or wiring. It may
cause contact failure and sys-
tem malfunction.
