IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3-2
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is
missing. If it is not missing, check to see that
it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfac-
tory, check for coolant leaking from the radia-
tor, hoses or under the car. (If the air condi-
tioning had been in use, it is normal for cold
water to be draining from it).
WARNING:
Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and
clothing away from moving parts such as the
fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or
coolant is leaking out, stop the engine imme-
diately and call the nearest Hyundai dealer
for assistance.
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot since steam and boiling water
may be ejected from the radiator resulting in
burns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be
found, wait until the engine temperature has
returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been
lost, carefully remove the radiator cap and
add water to bring the fluid level in the reser-
voir up to the base of the radiator fill opening.
Fill the coolant expansion tank to the halfway
mark.
WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric acid
and emit hydrogen gas. Protective clothing
should be worn and care exercised to prevent
the acid from coming into contact with skin or
clothing and the vehicle. Naked lights should
not be permitted in the vicinity of the battery.
Care should be exercised to prevent sparks
occurring during connection. If acid acciden-
tally comes into contact with skin or eyes, the
affected area should immediately be flushed
with copious amounts of water and medical
assistance sought.
1. Ensure that the booster battery is 12 volt type.
If the booster battery is installed in another
vehicle, ensure that the two vehicles are not
touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equipment
in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the vehicle provid-
ing the jump start is running prior to connec-
tion of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery and the other
end to the positive (+) terminal of the dis-
charged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the negative
(-) terminal of the booster battery, and the
other end to a ground point within the engine
compartment of the vehicle with the flat bat-
tery. Do not connect to the negative battery
terminal of the flat battery since sparks may
be generated with the subsequent risk of
explosion.
6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to
2,000 r.p.m. and start the engine of the vehi-
cle with the flat battery.
7. Remove jump cables in the reverse order of
installation (black cable first).
CAUTION:
If the jump cable is incorrectly installed, dam-
age to the vehicle electrical system may oc-
cur, in particular the electronic components
such as the Fuel Injection system computer
and the Automatic Transaxle computer. The
battery must never be disconnected whilst
the engine is running.

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
If the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto-
matic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set
the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on,
turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or
steam is coming out from under the bonnet
stop the engine. Do not open the bonnet until
the coolant has stopped running or the steam-
ing has stopped. If there is no visible loss of
coolant and no steam, leave the engine run-
ning and check to be sure the engine cooling
fan is operating.
If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
