Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged in a
short time (because, for example the
headlights or interior lights were left on
while vehicle was not in use) jump start
the vehicle from another battery and run
the engine at least 20 minutes at idle
before driving. Do not turn off the engine
for 30 minutes total of idle and/or driving
as the battery may not have sufficient
recharge to start.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSI-

ed accessories contain lead and
lead compounds, chemicals known

LIGHT BULBS
Use only bulbs of the specified wattage.
✽
✽NOTICE
After heavy, driving rain or washing,
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is caused by
the temperature difference between the
lamp inside and outside. This is similar
to the condensation 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.WARNING - Working on
the lights
Prior to working on the light, firmly
apply the parking brake, ensure
that the ignition switch is turned to
the LOCK position and turn off the
lights to avoid sudden movement
of the vehicle and burning your fin-
gers or receiving an electric shock.
CAUTION
Be sure to replace the burned-out
bulb with one of the same wattagerating. Otherwise, it may cause damage to the fuse or electricalwiring system.
CAUTION
If you don’t have necessary tools, the correct bulbs and the expert-ise, consult an authorizedHYUNDAI dealer. In many cases, itis difficult to replace vehicle light bulbs because other parts of thevehicle must be removed beforeyou can get to the bulb. This isespecially true if you have toremove the headlight assembly to
get to the bulb(s).
Removing
the headlight assembly
can result in damage to the vehi- cle.
Do not install additional bulbs or LED type bulbs. If you install that,the lamp may not be operatedproperly and fuse box or electrical wiring system may have a prob-lem.
