The hazard warning flasher serves as
a warning to other drivers to exercise
extreme caution when approaching,
overtaking, or passing your vehicle.
It should be used whenever emer- gency repairs are being made or
when the vehicle is stopped near the
edge of a roadway. To turn the hazard warning flasher
on or off, press the hazard warning
flasher button with the ignition switch
in any position. The button is located
in the center fascia panel. All turn
signal lights will flash simultaneously.
• The hazard warning flasher oper-
ates whether your vehicle is run- ning or not.
The turn signals do not work when the hazard flasher is on.
If the engine stalls while driving
Reduce your speed gradually,keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place.
Turn on your hazard warning flasher.
Try to start the engine again. If your vehicle will not start, we recom-
mend that you contact an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the engine stalls at a cross-
road or crossing
If the engine stalls at a crossroad or
crossing, if safe to do so, move the
shift lever to the N (Neutral) position
and then push the vehicle to a safelocation.

What to do in an emergency
If you have a flat tire while driving
If a tire goes flat while you are driv- ing:
Take your foot off the acceleratorpedal and let the vehicle slow
down while driving straight ahead.
Do not apply the brakes immedi-ately or attempt to pull off the road
as this may cause loss of vehiclecontrol resulting in an accident.
When the vehicle has slowed to
such a speed that it is safe to do
so, brake carefully and pull off the
road. Drive off the road as far as
possible and park on firm, level
ground. If you are on a divided
highway, do not park in the median
area between the two traffic lanes.
When the vehicle is stopped, press the hazard warning flasher button,
move the shift lever into P (Park),
apply the parking brake, and place
the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF position. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle. Be sure they all get out on
the side of the vehicle that is away
from traffic.
When changing a flat tire, follow the instructions provided later in
this chapter.

What to do in an emergency
If the engine doesn't turn over
or turns over slowly
Be sure the shift lever is in P
(Park). The vehicle starts only
when the shift lever is in P (Park).
Check the battery connections to be sure they are clean and tight.
Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate
the starter, the battery is drained.
Do not push or pull the vehicle to
start it. This could cause damage to
your vehicle. See instructions for
"Jump Starting" provided in this
chapter.
If the engine turns over nor-
mally but doesn't start
Check the fuel level and add fuel if necessary.
If the engine still does not start, we
recommend that you call an author-
ized HYUNDAI dealer for assistance. Jump starting can be dangerous if
done incorrectly. Follow the jump
starting procedure in this section to
avoid serious injury or damage to
your vehicle. If in doubt about how to
properly jump start your vehicle, we
strongly recommend that you have a
service technician or towing service
do it for you.
Push or pull starting the vehicle
may cause the catalytic convert-
er to overload which can lead to
damage to the emission controlsystem.

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH to you or bystanders,
always follow these precautions
when working near or handling
the battery:Always read and follow
instructions carefully
when handling a battery.Wear eye protection
designed to protect the
eyes from acid splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking materials
away from the battery.
Hydrogen is always pres- ent in battery cells, is
highly combustible, and
may explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of
reach of children.
(Continued)
(Continued)Batteries contain sulfu-
ric acid which is highly
corrosive. Do not allow
acid to contact your
eyes, skin or clothing.
If acid gets into your eyes, flush
your eyes with clean water for at
least 15 minutes and get imme-
diate medical attention. If acid
gets on your skin, thoroughly
wash the area. If you feel pain or
a burning sensation, get med-
ical attention immediately.
•When lifting a plastic-cased
battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause battery
acid to leak. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
Do not attempt to jump start
your vehicle if your battery is
frozen.
(Continued)
WARNING (Continued)
NEVER attempt to recharge
the battery when the vehicle’s
battery cables are connected
to the battery.
The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage.
NEVER touch these compo-nents with the engine running
or when the Engine Start/Stop
button is in the ON position.
Do not allow the (+) and (-)
jumper cables to touch. It maycause sparks.
The battery may rupture or
explode when you jump start
with a low or frozen battery.

etc. Put the vehicles in P (Park)
and set the parking brakes. Turn
both vehicles OFF.

7. Connect the other end of the sec-ond jumper cable to the black,
negative (-) chassis ground of
your vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the cor-
rect battery or jumper terminals or
the correct ground. Do not lean
over the battery when making
connections.
8. Start the engine of the assisting vehicle and let it run at approxi-
mately 2,000 rpm for a few min-
utes. Then start your vehicle.

exact reverse order you connectedthem:
1. Disconnect the jumper cable from
the black, negative (-) chassis
ground of your vehicle (4).
2. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the black, neg-
ative (-) battery/chassis ground of
the assisting vehicle (3).
