Driving your vehicle
Always place the vehicle in P (Park),
apply the parking brake and turn off
the engine before installing snow
chains.
When using tyre chains:
 Wrong size chains or improperly installed chains can damage
your vehicle's brake lines, sus-
pension, body and wheels.
 Use SAE “S” class or wire chains.
 If you hear noise caused by chains contacting the body,
retighten the chain to prevent
contact with the vehicle body.
 To prevent body damage, retight- en the chains after driving 0.3~0.6
miles (0.5~1.0 km).
 Do not use tyre chains on vehi- cles equipped with aluminium
wheels. If unavoidable, use a
wire type chain.
 Use wire chains less than 12 mm (0.47 in) wide to prevent damage
to the chain’s connection.
Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol
coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high
quality ethylene glycol coolant in the
cooling system. It is the only type of
coolant that should be used because
it helps prevent corrosion in the cool-
ing system, lubricates the water
pump and prevents freezing. Be sure
to replace or replenish your coolant
in accordance with the  maintenance
schedule. Before winter, have your
coolant tested to assure that its
freezing point is sufficient for the
temperatures anticipated during the
winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter temperatures affect battery
performance. Inspect the battery
and cables, as specified in chapter
7. The battery charging level can be
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer or in a service station. Change to "winter weight" oil if
necessary
In some regions during winter, it is
recommended to use the "winter
weight" oil with lower viscosity. For
further information, refer to the chap-
ter 8. When you are not sure about a
type of winter weight oil, consult a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Check spark plugs and ignition
system
Inspect the spark plugs, as speci-
fied in chapter 7.
If necessary,
replace them. Also check all ignition
wirings and components for any
cracks, wear-out, and damage.
To prevent locks from freezing
To prevent the locks from being
frozen, spray approved de-icing fluid
or glycerin into key holes. When a
lock opening is already covered with
ice, spray approved de-icing fluid
over the ice to remove it. When an
internal part of a lock freezes, try to
thaw it with a heated key. Carefully
use the heated key to avoid an injury.

What to do in an emergency

4. Connect the jumper cables in theexact sequence shown in the illus-
tration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+)
jumper terminal of your vehicle
(1).
5. Connect the other end of the jumper cable to the red, positive
(+) battery/jumper terminal of the
assisting vehicle (2).
6. Connect the second jumper cable to the black, negative (-) battery/
chassis ground of the assisting
vehicle (3). 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.
If your vehicle will not start after a
few attempts, it probably requires
servicing. In this event please seek
qualified assistance. If the cause of
your battery discharging is not
apparent, have your vehicle checked
by a HYUNDAI authorised repairer. Disconnect the jumper cables in the
exact reverse order you connected
them:
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).
3. Disconnect the second jumper cable from the red, positive (+)
battery/jumper terminal of the
assisting vehicle (2).
4. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the red, positive
(+) jumper terminal of your vehicle
(1).

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 electrolyte from the battery immediately with a
solution of water and baking soda.
 If the vehicle is not going to be used for an extended time, discon-
nect the battery cables.
Battery capacity label 
The actual battery label in the vehicle
may differ from the illustration.
1. CMF60L-BCI : The HYUNDAI model name of battery
2. 12V : The nominal voltage
3. 60Ah(20HR) : The nominal capacity (in Ampere hours)
4. 92RC : The nominal reserve capac- ity (in min.)
5. 550CCA : The cold-test current in amperes by SAE
6. 440A : The cold-test current in amperes by EN
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 headlights 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.
