Drive belts should be checked periodically for
proper tension and adjusted if necessary. At the
same fi'me, belts should be examined for cracks,
wear, fraying or other evldence of deterioration
and replaced if necessary.
Belt routing should also be checked to be sure
there Is no interference between the belts and
other parts of the engine. After a belt is re-
placed, the new belt should be adjusted again
after two or three weeks to eliminate slack
resulting from initial stretching after use.

CHECKING AND REPLACING
FUSES
Replacing a Fusible Link
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits
from the battery are ever overtoaded, thus pre-
venting damage to the entire wiring hamess.
(This could be caused by a short in the system
drawing too much current.) If this ever happens,
have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause,
repair the system and replace the fusible link.
The fusible links are located in a relay box for
easy inspection.
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use
anything but a new fusible link with the
same or lower amperage rating. Never use a
piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link.
This could result in serlous damage and
create a fire hazard.

Replacing Accessory Fuse
The fuse box for the lights and other electrical
accessories will be found low on the dashboard
on the driver's side. Inside the box you will find
a list showing the circuits protected by each
fuse.
If any of your car's lights or other electrical
accessories stop working, a blown fuse could
be the reason. If the fuse has bumed out, you
will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has
bumed through. If you suspect a blown fuse,
followthis procedure:
1. Tum off the ignition and all other switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse.
Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you
(a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the
fuse box to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you
find one that appears to have bumed out.
