attaching clips.
5. Check that the cover is firmly installed.
Information
If the vehicle is operated in extremely
dusty or sandy areas, replace the ele-
ment more often than the usual rec-
ommended intervals (Refer to
“Maintenance Under Severe Usage
Conditions” in this chapter).
Do not drive with the air cleanerfilter removed. This will result in
excessive engine wear.

Filter inspection
The climate control air filter should be
replaced according to the Maintenance
Schedule.
If the vehicle is operated in
severely air-polluted cities or on
dusty rough roads for a long period,
it should be inspected more fre-
quently and replaced earlier. When
you replace the climate control air fil-
ter, replace it performing the follow-
ing procedure, and be careful to
avoid damaging other components.
1. With the glove box open, removethe stoppers on both sides. 2. Remove the support rod (1).

3. Press and hold the lock (1) on both sides of the cover.
4. Pull out (2) the cover. 5. Replace the climate control air filter.
6. Reassemble in the reverse order
of disassembly. Install a new climate control air fil-
ter in the correct direction with the
arrow symbol (
↓ ↓) facing down-
wards, otherwise, it may be noisy
and the effectiveness of the filter
may be reduced.

Blade inspection
Contamination of either the wind-
screen or the wiper blades with for-
eign matter can reduce the effective-
ness of the windscreen wipers.
Common sources of contamination
are insects, tree sap, and hot wax
treatments used by some commer-
cial car washes. If the blades are not
wiping properly, clean both the win-
dow and the blades with a clean
cloth dampened with washer fluid. To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, arms or other compo-
nents, do not:
Use petrol, kerosene, paint thin-
ner, or other solvents on or near
them.
Attempt to move the wipers manually.
Use non-specified wiper blades.
Information
Commercial hot waxes applied by auto-
matic car washes have been known to
make the windscreen difficult to clean.
Information
Wiper blades are consumable items.
Normal wear of the wipers may not be
covered by your vehicle warranty.
Blade replacement
When the wipers no longer clean
adequately, the blades may be worn
or cracked, and require replacement.
To prevent damage to the wiper
arms or other components, do not
attempt to move the wipers manu-
ally.
The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper mal-
function and failure.

When you do not use the vehicle
for a long time in a low tempera-
ture area, disconnect the battery
and keep it indoors.
Always charge the battery fully to prevent battery case damage
in low temperature areas.
NOTICE
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)
WARNING (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)
(Continued)
NEVER attempt to recharge
the battery when the vehicle’s
battery cables are connected
to the battery.
The electrical ignition switch
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.

Maintenance
For best battery service
Keep the battery securely mounted.
Keep the battery top clean and dry.
Keep the terminals and connec-tions clean, tight, and coated with
petroleum jelly or terminal grease.
Rinse any spilled acid from the bat- tery immediately with a solution of
water and baking soda.
Information - For batteries
marked with UPPER and
LOWER
If your vehicle is equipped with a bat-
tery marked with LOWER (MIN) and
UPPER (MAX) on the side, you
should check the electrolyte level.
The electrolyte level should be
between LOWER (MIN) and UPPER
(MAX). When the electrolyte level is
low, add distilled (or de-mineralised)
water. (Never add sulfuric acids or
other electrolyte). (continued)(continued)
Be careful not to spill distilled (or de-
mineralised) water over the battery
surface or other adjacent components.
Also, do not overfill the battery cells.
If not, it may corrode the battery or
other components. Finally, securely
close the cell cap. However, we recom-
mend you to contact an HYUNDAI
authorised repairer for better battery
service. i

Battery recharging
By battery charger
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes dischargedover a short time (because, for
example, the headlamps or interior
lights were left on whilst the vehicle
was not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electrical load
whilst the vehicle is being used,
recharge it at 20-30A for two hours. Always follow these instructions
when recharging your vehicle’s
battery to avoid the risk of SERI-
OUS INJURY or DEATH from
explosions or acid burns:
Before performing mainte-
nance or recharging the bat-
tery, turn off all accessories
and place the Engine Start/
Stop button to the OFF posi-
tion.
Keep all flames, sparks, or
smoking materials away from
the battery.
Always work outdoors or in an
area with plenty of ventilation.
Wear eye protection when
checking the battery during
charging.
The battery must be removed
from the vehicle and placed in
a well ventilated area.
