Maintenance of Seat BeltsWhen cleaning the seat belts, asrecommended, avoid getting solutionsinto the buckle where they may attackthe lubricant or cause corrosion. Donot attempt to bleach or re-dye belts,as this may affect the webbing strength.

NOTE:Do not attempt any form of modifi-cations or repairs to seat belt com-ponents. If the retractor or othercomponents do not operate cor-rectly, call an authorised HyundaiDealer, who will take the necessarycorrective action. Your authoriseddealer will inspect all seat belt com-ponents at regular intervals andadvise if replacement is required.Between these inspections youshould make regular checks to en-sure that foreign objects are notpreventing complete buckle en-gagement.

A slack belt will greatly reduce theprotection afforded to wearer.Care should be taken to avoid con-tamination of the webbing withpolishes, oils and chemicals andparticularly battery acid. Cleaningmay safely be carried out usingmild soap and water. The belt shouldbe replaced if webbing becomesfrayed, contaminated or damaged.It is essential to replace the entireassembly after it has been worn ina severe impact even if damage tothe assembly is not obvious. Beltsshould not be worn with strapstwisted. Each seat belt assemblymust only be used by one occu-pant; it is dangerous to put a beltaround a child being carried on theoccupant's lap.No modifications or additionsshould be made by the user whichwill either prevent the seat belt ad-justing devices from operating toremove slack, or prevent the seatbelt assembly from being adjustedto remove slack.

o Front airbags are not intended todeploy in side-impact, rear-im-pact or rollover crashes. In addi-tion, airbags will not deploy infrontal crashes below the deploy-ment threshold speed.

Rear impact

Side Impact

Rollover

o The SRS is designed to deploythe airbags only when the impactis sufficiently severe and whenthe impact is in the front or fron-tal angle of the vehicle, and willnot deploy in side, rear or rolloverimpacts. Additionally, the airbagswill only deploy once. Thus, seatbelts must be worn at all times.

o For maximum safety protectionin all types of crashes, all occu-pants including the driver shouldalways wear their seat beltswhether or not an airbag is alsoprovided at their seating posi-tion to minimise the risk of se-vere injury or death in the eventof a crash. Do not sit or leanunnecessarily close to the airbagwhile the vehicle is in motion.

o The SRS airbag system must de-ploy very rapidly to provide pro-tection in a crash. If an occupantis out of position because of notwearing a seat belt, the airbagmay forcefully contact the occu-pant causing serious or fatal in-juries.

WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is

designed to work with, and besupplemental to, the driver's andthe passenger's three point seatbelt systems and is not a substi-tute for them. Therefore your seatbelts must be worn at all timeswhile the vehicle is in motion.

NOTE:Be sure to read information aboutthe SRS on the labels provided onthe backside of the sun visor and inthe glove box.

B240A04A


The SRS consists of the following com-ponents:

- Driver's Airbag Module- Passenger's Airbag Module- SRS Service Reminder Indicator

(SRI)- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)

The SRSCM continually monitors allelements while the ignition is "ON" todetermine if a frontal or near-frontalimpact is severe enough to requireairbag deployment.

B240B02A-DAT

SRS Components and Functions

B240B02A-DThe airbag modules are located bothin the centre of the steering wheel andin the front passenger's panel abovethe glove box. When the SRSCM de-tects a considerable impact to the frontof the vehicle, it will automatically de-ploy the airbags.

Upon deployment, tear seams moldeddirectly into the pad covers will separateunder pressure from the expansion ofthe airbags. Further opening of the cov-ers then allows full inflation of the airbags.

A fully inflated airbag in combinationwith a properly worn seat belt slowsthe driver's or the passenger's forwardmotion, thus reducing the risk of heador chest injury.

B240B04A-D

The SRS service reminder indicator(SRI) on the instrument panel will blinkfor about 6 seconds after the ignitionkey is turned to the "ON" position orafter the engine is started, after whichthe SRI should go out.

B240B03A-D


! WARNING:o When the SRS is activated, there

may be a loud noise and fine dustwill be released throughout thevehicle. These conditions arenormal and are not hazardous.However, the fine dust generatedduring airbag deployment maycause skin irritation. Wash yourhands and face thoroughly withlukewarm water and a mild soapafter an accident in which theairbags were deployed.

After complete inflation, the airbagimmediately starts deflating, enablingthe driver to maintain forward visibility.

o The SRS can function only whenthe ignition key is in the "ON"position. If the SRS SRI does notcome on, or continuously re-mains on after flashing for about6 seconds when the ignition keyis turned to the "ON" position, orafter the engine is started, orcomes on while driving, the SRSis not working properly. If thisoccurs, have your vehicle imme-diately inspected by yourHyundai dealer.

o Before you replace a fuse or dis-connect a battery terminal, turnthe ignition key to the "LOCK"position or remove the ignitionkey. Never remove or replace theair bag related fuse(s) when theignition key is in the "ON" posi-tion. Failure to heed this warningwill cause the SRS SRI to illumi-nate.

! CAUTION:When installing a container of liq-uid air freshener inside the vehicle,do not place it near the instrumentcluster nor on the instrument panelsurface. If there is any leakage fromthe air freshener onto these areas(instrument cluster, instrumentpanel or air ventilator), it may dam-age these parts. If the liquid fromthe air freshener does leak ontothese areas, wash them with waterimmediately.

SRS CareThe SRS is virtually maintenance-freeand so there are no parts you cansafely service by yourself. The entireSRS system must be inspected by anauthorised Hyundai dealer 10 yearsafter the date that the car was manu-factured.

Any work on the airbag system, suchas removing, installing, repairing, orany work on the steering wheel mustbe performed by a qualified Hyundaitechnician. Improper handling of theairbag system may result in seriouspersonal injury.

o Do not place any objects (anumbrella, bag, etc.) between thefront door and the front seat.Such objects may become dan-gerous projectiles and cause in-jury if the supplemental side im-pact airbag inflates.

o To prevent unexpected deploy-ment of the side impact airbagthat may result in personal in-jury, avoid impact to the sideairbag sensor when the ignitionkey is on.


o For cleaning the horn pad, useonly a soft, dry cloth or one whichhas been moistened with plainwater. Solvents or cleaners couldadversely affect the airbag coverand proper deployment of thesystem.

o No objects should be placed overor near the label identifying theairbag on the steering wheel andinstrument panel, because anysuch object could cause harm ifthe vehicle is in a crash severeenough to cause the air bag toinflate.

o If the airbag inflates, it must bereplaced by an authorisedHyundai dealer.

o Do not tamper with or discon-nect SRS wiring, or other com-ponents of the SRS system. Do-ing so could result in injury, dueto accidental firing of the airbagsor by rendering the SRS inopera-tive.

o Do not install a child restraintsystem in the front passengerseat position. A child restraint

system must never be placed inthe front seat. The infant or babycould be severely injured by anairbag deployment in case of anaccident.

o If components of the airbag sys-tem must be discarded, or if thevehicle must be scrapped, cer-tain safety precautions must beobserved. Your Hyundai dealerknows these precautions and cangive you the necessary informa-tion.Failure to follow these precau-tions and procedures could in-crease the risk of personal in-jury.

Ionosphere FM reception

B750A01A

Obstructed area Iron bridges

FM broadcasts are transmitted at highfrequencies and do not bend to followthe earth's surface. Because of this,FM broadcasts generally begin to fadeat short distances from the station.Also, FM signals are easily affected bybuildings, mountains, or other obstruc-tions. These can result in certain lis-tening conditions which might lead youto believe a problem exists with yourradio. The following conditions arenormal and do not indicate radio trouble:

AM broadcasts can be received atgreater distances than FM broadcasts.This is because AM radio waves aretransmitted at low frequencies. Theselong, low frequency radio waves canfollow the curvature of the earth ratherthan travelling straight out into theatmosphere. In addition, they curvearound obstructions so that they canprovide better signal coverage.

B750A02A-AAT

STEREO SOUND SYSTEMHow Car Audio Works

AM and FM radio signals are broad-cast from transmitter towers locatedaround your city. They are interceptedby the radio antenna on your car. Thissignal is then received by the radio andsent to your car speakers.When a strong radio signal has reachedyour vehicle, the precise engineeringof your audio system ensures the bestpossible quality reproduction. Howev-er, in some cases the signal coming toyour vehicle may not be strong andclear. This can be due to factors suchas the distance from the radio station,closeness of other strong radio sta-

tions or the presence of buildings,bridges or other large obstructions inthe area.

Using a cellular phone or a two-way radioWhen a cellular phone is used insidethe vehicle, noise may be producedfrom the audio equipment. This doesnot mean that something is wrong withthe audio equipment. In such a case,use the cellular phone at a place as faras possible from the audio equipment.

!

! CAUTION:When using a communication sys-tem such as a cellular phone or aradio inside the vehicle, a separateexternal antenna must be fitted.When a cellular phone or a radio setis used with an internal antennaalone, it may interfere with thevehicle's electrical system and ad-versely affect safe operation of thevehicle.

WARNING:Don't use a cellular phone whenyou are driving. Stop at a safe placeto use a cellular phone.

o Station Swapping - As an FM signalweakens, another more powerfulsignal near the same frequency maybegin to play. This is because yourradio is designed to lock onto theclearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger sig-nal.

o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig-nals being received from severaldirections can cause distortion orfluttering. This can be caused by adirect and reflected signal from thesame station, or by signals from twostations with close frequencies. Ifthis occurs, select another stationuntil the condition has passed.

o Fading - As your car moves awayfrom the radio station, the signal willweaken and sound will begin tofade. When this occurs, we suggestthat you select another stronger sta-tion.

o Flutter/Static - Weak FM signals orlarge obstructions between thetransmitter and your radio can dis-turb the signal causing static or flut-tering noises to occur. Reducing thetreble level may lessen this effectuntil the disturbance clears.

WARNING: ENGINE EXHAUST CAN BE DANGEROUS!

Engine exhaust fumes can be extremely dangerous. If, at any time, you smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle,open the windows immediately.

o Do not inhale exhaust fumes.Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colourless, odourless gas that can cause unconsciousness anddeath by asphyxiation.

o Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.The exhaust system should be checked whenever the vehicle is raised to change the oil or for any other purpose.If you hear a change in the sound of the exhaust or if you drive over something that strikes the underside of thecar, have the exhaust system checked as soon as possible.

o Do not run the engine in an enclosed area.Letting the engine idle in your garage, even with the garage door open, is a hazardous practice. Never run theengine in your garage any longer than it takes to start the engine and back the car out.

o Avoid idling the engine for prolonged periods with people inside the car.If it is necessary to idle the engine for a prolonged period with people inside the car, be sure to do so only inan open area with the air intake set at "Fresh" and fan operating at one of the higher speeds so fresh air is drawninto the interior.If you must drive with the trunk lid / tail gate open because you are carrying objects that make this necessarybe sure to:1. Close all windows.2. Open side vents.3. Set the air intake control at "Fresh", the air flow control at "Floor" or "Face" and the fan at one of the higher

speeds.To assure proper operation of the ventilation system, keep the ventilation air intakes located just in front of thewindshield clear of snow, ice, leaves or other obstructions.

! WARNING:Be sure that the clutch is fully de-pressed when starting a manualtransaxle vehicle. Your manualtransaxle equipped vehicle will notstart unless the clutch pedal is fullydepressed. On a manual transaxleequipped vehicle that can be startedwithout depressing the clutch, thereis the potential to cause damage to

the vehicle or injury to someoneinside or outside the vehicle as aresult of the forward or backwardmovement of the vehicle that willoccur if the clutch is not depressedwhen the vehicle is started.

4. Turn the ignition key to the "START"position and release it when theengine starts.After the engine has started, allowthe engine to run for 10 to 20 sec-onds prior to placing the vehicle ingear.The starter should not be operatedfor more than 15 seconds at a time.Wait 15-30 seconds between start-ing attempts to protect the starterfrom overheating.


NOTE:o To shift into reverse, rest the le-

ver in neutral for at least 3 sec-onds after your car is completelystopped. Then move the leverinto the reverse position.

o During cold weather, shifting maybe difficult until the transaxle lu-bricant has warmed up. This isnormal and not harmful to thetransaxle.

o If you've come to a complete stopand it's hard to shift into 1st orR(Reverse), put the shift lever inN(Neutral) position and releasethe clutch. Press the clutch pedalback down, and then shift into 1st

or R(Reverse) gear position.o Do not use the shift lever as a

handrest during driving, as thiscan result in premature wear ofthe transaxle shift forks.

CAUTION:When downshifting from fifth gearto fourth gear, caution should betaken not to inadvertently press thegear lever sideways in such a man-ner that second gear is engaged.Such a drastic downshift may causethe engine speed to increase to thepoint that the tachometer will enterthe red-zone. Such over-revving ofthe engine may possibly cause en-gine damage.

!

C070B01A-DAT

Using the ClutchThe clutch should be pressed all theway to the floor before shifting, thenreleased slowly. The clutch pedalshould fully return to the original posi-tion. Do not rest your foot on the clutchpedal while driving. This can causeunnecessary wear. Do not partiallyengage the clutch to hold the car on anincline. This causes unnecessary wear.Use the hand brake to hold the car onan incline. Do not operate the clutchpedal rapidly and repeatedly.

C070A02A-DAT

OPERATING THE MANUALTRANSAXLE

Your Hyundai's manual transaxle hasa conventional shift pattern. This shiftpattern is imprinted on the shift knob.The transaxle is fully synchronised inall forward gears so shifting to either ahigher or a lower gear is easily accom-plished.

C070A01A

DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE 5- 7o Exercise extreme caution when driv-

ing on a slippery surface. Be espe-cially careful when braking, acceler-ating or shifting gears. On a slipperysurface, an abrupt change in ve-hicle speed can cause the drivewheels to lose traction and the ve-hicle to go out of control.

WARNING:o Avoid high cornering speeds.o Do not make quick steering wheel

movements, such as sharp lanechanges or fast, sharp turns.

o Always wear your seat belts.In a collision crash, an unbeltedperson is significantly more likelyto die than a person wearing aseat belt.

o The risk of rollover is greatly in-creased if you lose control ofyour vehicle at highway speeds.

o Loss of control often occurs iftwo or more wheels drop off theroadway and the driver oversteersto reenter the roadway.

C070D02O-AAT

Good Driving Practiceso Never take the car out of gear and

coast down a hill. This is extremelyhazardous. Always leave the car ingear.

o Don't "ride" the brakes. This cancause them to overheat and mal-function. Instead, when you are driv-ing down a long hill, slow down andshift to a lower gear. When you dothis, engine braking will help slowthe car.

o Slow down before shifting to a lowergear. This will help avoid over-rev-ving the engine, which can causedamage.

o Slow down when you encountercross winds. This gives you muchbetter control of your car.

o Be sure the car is completely stoppedbefore you attempt to shift into re-verse. The transaxle can be dam-aged if you do not. To shift intoreverse, depress the clutch, movethe shift lever to neutral, wait threeseconds, then shift to the reverseposition.

o After being parked, check to be surethe hand brake is not engaged andthat the hand brake indicator light isout before driving away.

o Driving through water may get thebrakes wet. They can also get wetwhen the car is washed. Wet brakescan be dangerous! Your car will notstop as quickly if the brakes are wet.Wet brakes may cause the car topull to one side. To dry the brakes,apply the brakes lightly until thebraking action returns to normal,taking care to keep the car undercontrol at all times. If the brakingaction does not return to normal,stop as soon as it is safe to do soand call your Hyundai dealer forassistance.

C130A01A-DAT

GOOD BRAKING PRACTICES

!

o Don't coast down hills with the carout of gear. This is extremely haz-ardous. Keep the car in gear at alltimes, use the brakes to slow down,then shift to a lower gear so thatengine braking will help you main-tain a safe speed.

o Don't "ride" the brake pedal. Rest-ing your foot on the brake pedalwhile driving can be dangerous be-cause it can result in the brakesoverheating and losing their effec-tiveness. It also increases the wearof the brake components.

o If a tyre goes flat while you aredriving, apply the brakes gently andkeep the car pointed straight aheadwhile you slow down. When you aremoving slowly enough for it to besafe to do so, pull off the road andstop in a safe place.

o If your car is equipped with an auto-matic transaxle, don't let your carcreep forward. To avoid creepingforward, keep your foot firmly on thebrake pedal when the car is stopped.

o In the event your vehicle leavesthe roadway, do not steer sharply.Instead, slow down before pull-ing back into the travel lanes.

o Never exceed posted speed lim-its.

DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE 5- 9o Use caution when parking on a hill.

Engage the hand brake and place thegear selector lever in first or reversegear (manual transaxle). If your caris facing downhill, turn the frontwheels into the curb to help keep thecar from rolling. If your car is facinguphill, turn the front wheels awayfrom the curb to help keep the carfrom rolling. If there is no curb or if itis required by other conditions tokeep the car from rolling, block thewheels.

o Under some conditions your handbrake can freeze in the engagedposition. This is most likely to hap-pen when there is an accumulation ofsnow or ice around or near the rearbrakes or if the brakes are wet. Ifthere is a risk that the hand brakemay freeze, apply it only temporarilywhile you put the gear selector leverin first or reverse gear and block therear wheels so the car cannot roll.Then release the hand brake.

o Do not hold the vehicle on the up-grade with the accelerator pedal. Thiscan cause the transaxle to overheat.Always use the brake pedal or handbrake.

WARNING:Your ABS will not prevent acci-dents due to improper or dangerousdriving maneuvers. Even thoughvehicle control is improved duringemergency braking, always main-tain a safe distance between you andobjects ahead. Vehicle speedsshould always be reduced duringextreme road conditions.The braking distance for carsequipped with an anti-lock brakingsystem may be longer than for thosewithout it in the following road con-ditions.

o Rough, gravel or snow-coveredroads.

o With tyre chains installed.o On roads where the road surface

is pitted or has different surfaceheight.

These roads should be driven atreduced speeds. The safety featuresof an ABS equipped vehicle shouldnot be tested by high speed drivingor cornering. This could endangerthe safety of yourself or others.

!C120A02A-DAT

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM(If installed)The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) isdesigned to prevent wheel lock-upduring sudden braking or on hazard-ous road surfaces. The ABS controlmodule monitors the wheel speed andcontrols the pressure applied to eachbrake. Thus, in emergency situationsor on slick roads, your ABS will in-crease vehicle control during braking.

NOTE:A click sound may be heard in theengine compartment when the ve-hicle begins to move after the engineis started. These conditions are nor-mal and indicate that the anti-lockbrake system is functioning prop-erly.During ABS operation, a slight pul-sation may be felt in the brake pedalwhen the brakes are applied. Also, anoise may be heard in the enginecompartment while driving. Theseconditions are normal and indicatethat the anti-lock brake system isfunctioning properly.


corrosive materials. It is especiallyimportant that mud, dirt, ice, etc. notbe allowed to accumulate on theunderside of the car. This extraweight can result in increased fuelconsumption and also contribute tocorrosion.

o Travel lightly. Don't carry unneces-sary weight in your car. Weight is anenemy of good fuel economy.

o Don't let the engine idle longer thannecessary. If you are waiting (andnot in traffic), turn off your engineand restart only when you're readyto go.

o Remember, your Hyundai does notrequire extended warm-up. As soonas the engine is running smoothly,you can drive away. In very coldweather, however, give your enginea slightly longer warm-up period.

o Don't "labour" or "over-rev" the en-gine. Labouring is driving too slowlyin too high a gear resulting in theengine bucking. If this happens toyou, shift to a lower gear. Over-revving is racing the engine beyondits safe limit. This can be avoided byshifting at the recommendedspeeds.

o In addition, driving with your footresting on the brake pedal may causethe brakes to overheat, which re-duces their effectiveness and maylead to more serious consequenc-es.

o Take care of your tyres. Keep theminflated to the recommended pres-sure. Incorrect inflation, either toomuch or too little, results in unnec-essary tyre wear. Check the tyrepressures at least once a month.

o Be sure that the wheels are alignedcorrectly. Improper alignment canresult from hitting curbs or drivingtoo fast over irregular surfaces Pooralignment causes faster tyre wearand may also result in other prob-lems as well as greater fuel con-sumption.

o Keep your car in good condition. Forbetter fuel economy and reducedmaintenance costs, maintain yourcar in accordance with the mainte-nance schedule in Section 5. If youdrive your car in severe conditions,more frequent maintenance is re-quired (see Section 5 for details).

o Keep your car clean all over. Formaximum service, your Hyundaishould be kept clean and free of

C140A01A-DAT

DRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou can save fuel and get more kilo-meters from your car if you followthese suggestions:

o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at amoderate rate. Don't make "kanga-roo" starts or full-throttle shifts.Maintain a steady cruising speed.Don't race between stoplights. Tryto adjust your speed to that of theother traffic so you don't have tochange speeds unnecessarily. Avoidheavy traffic whenever possible.Always maintain a safe distancefrom other vehicles so you canavoid unnecessary braking. Thisalso reduces brake wear.

o Drive at a moderate speed. Thefaster you drive, the more fuel yourcar uses. Driving at a moderatespeed, especially on the highway, isone of the most effective ways toreduce fuel consumption.

o Don't "ride" the brake. This can in-crease fuel consumption and alsoincrease wear on these components.

Use Approved Anti-Freeze inWindow Washer SystemTo keep the water in the window washersystem from freezing, add an approvedanti-freeze solution in accordance withinstructions on the container. Windowwasher anti-freeze is available fromHyundai dealers and most auto partsoutlets. Do not use engine coolant orother types of anti-freeze as thesemay damage the paint finish.

C160I01L-DAT

Don't Let Your Hand BrakeFreezeUnder some conditions your handbrake can freeze in the engaged posi-tion. This is most likely to happen whenthere is an accumulation of snow or icearound or near the rear brakes or if thebrakes are wet. If there is a risk thehand brake may freeze, apply it onlytemporarily while you put the gearselector lever in "P" and block the rearwheels so the car cannot roll. Thenrelease the hand brake.

C150A01A-DAT

SMOOTH CORNERINGAvoid braking or gear changing in cor-ners, especially when roads are wet.Ideally, corners should always be takenunder gentle acceleration. If you followthese suggestions, tyre wear will beheld to a minimum.

o Use your air conditioning sparingly.The air conditioning system is oper-ated by engine power so your fueleconomy is reduced when you useit.

C160A01A-AAT

WINTER DRIVINGThe more severe weather conditionsof winter result in greater wear andother problems. To minimize the prob-lems of winter driving, you should fol-low these suggestions:


C180A01A-AAT

USE OF LIGHTSCheck your lights regularly for correctoperation and always keep them clean.When driving during the day in condi-tions of poor visibility, it is helpful todrive with headlights on low beam.This enables you to be seen as well asto see.

C190A01A-GAT

TRAILER OR VEHICLE TOWINGIf you are considering towing with yourcar, you should first check with yourState Department of Motor Vehicles todetermine their legal requirements.Since laws vary from state to state therequirements for towing trailers, cars,or other types of vehicles or apparatusmay differ. Ask your Hyundai dealerfor further details before towing.

! CAUTION :Do not do any towing with your carduring its first 2,000 km (1,200 miles)in order to allow the engine to prop-erly break in. Failure to heed thiscaution may result in serious en-gine or transaxle damage.

C170A01A-DAT

HIGH SPEED MOTORINGPre-Trip Inspections1. TYRES:Adjust the tyre inflation pressures tospecification. Low tyre inflation pres-sures will result in overheating andpossible failure of the tyres. Avoidusing worn or damaged tyres whichmay result in reduced traction or tyrefailure.

NOTE:Never exceed the maximum tyreinflation pressure shown on thetyres.

2. FUEL, ENGINE COOLANTAND ENGINE OIL:

High speed travel consumes more fuelthan urban motoring. Do not forget tocheck both engine coolant and engineoil.

3. DRIVE BELT:A loose or damaged drive belt mayresult in overheating of the engine.

WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot. This can allowcoolant to be blown out of the open-ing and cause serious burns.

6. If you cannot find the cause of theoverheating, wait until the enginetemperature has returned to nor-mal. Then, if the engine coolant hasbeen lost, carefully add engine cool-ant to the reservoir (page 6-7) tobring the fluid level in the reservoirup to the halfway mark.

7. Proceed with caution, keeping alertfor further signs of overheating. Ifoverheating happens again, call aHyundai dealer for assistance.

D030A01A-DAT

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATSIf your temperature gauge indicatesoverheating, you experience a loss ofpower, or hear loud pinging or knock-ing, the engine is probably too hot. Ifthis happens, you should:

1. Pull off the road and stop as soon asit is safe to do so.

2. Place the gear selector lever in "P"(automatic), or neutral (manualtransaxle) and set the hand brake. Ifthe air conditioning is on, turn it off.

6. Carefully remove the jumper cablesin the reverse order of attachment.

If you do not know why your batterybecame discharged (because the lightswere left on, etc.), have the chargingsystem checked by your Hyundaidealer.

3. If coolant is running out under thecar or steam is coming out from thebonnet, stop the engine. Do notopen the bonnet until the coolanthas stopped running or the steam-ing has stopped. If there is no visibleloss of coolant and no steam, leavethe engine running and check to besure the engine cooling fan is oper-ating. If the fan is not running, turnthe engine off.

4. Check to see if the water pump drivebelt is missing. If it is not missing,check to see that it is tight. If thedrive belt seems to be satisfactory,check for engine coolant leakingfrom the radiator, hoses or underthe car. (If the air conditioning hadbeen in use, it is normal for coldwater to be draining from it whenyou stop).

7- 2 CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE

E010A01A-AAT

CORROSION PROTECTIONProtecting Your Hyundai fromCorrosion:By using the most advanced designand construction practices to combatcorrosion, Hyundai produces cars ofthe highest quality. However, this isonly part of the job. To achieve thelong-term corrosion resistance yourHyundai can deliver, the owner's co-operation and assistance is also re-quired.

E010C01A-AAT

High-Corrosion AreasIf you live in an area where your car isregularly exposed to corrosive materi-als, corrosion protection is particularlyimportant. Some of the commoncauses of accelerated corrosion areroad salts, dust control chemicals,ocean air and industrial pollution.

E010B01A-AAT

Common Causes of CorrosionThe most common causes of corro-sion on your car are:

o Road salt, dirt and moisture that isallowed to accumulate underneaththe car.

o Removal of paint or protective coat-ings by stones, gravel, abrasion orminor scrapes and dents which leaveunprotected metal exposed to cor-rosion.

E010D01A-AAT

Moisture Breeds CorrosionMoisture creates the conditions inwhich corrosion is most likely to occur.For example, corrosion is acceleratedby high humidity, particularly when tem-peratures are just above freezing. Insuch conditions, the corrosive mate-rial is kept in contact with the carsurfaces by moisture that is slow toevaporate.

Mud is particularly corrosive becauseit is slow to dry and holds moisture incontact with the vehicle. Although themud appears to be dry, it can still retainthe moisture and promote corrosion.High temperatures can also acceler-ate corrosion of parts that are notproperly ventilated so the moisturecan be dispersed. For all these rea-sons, it is particularly important to keepyour car clean and free of mud oraccumulations of other materials. Thisapplies not only to the visible surfacesbut particularly to the underside of thecar.

E020A01A-AAT

TO HELP PREVENT CORRO-SIONYou can help prevent corrosion fromgetting started by observing the follow-ing:

CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE 7- 3

E020C01A-AAT

Keep Your Garage DryDon't park your car in a damp, poorlyventilated garage. This creates a fa-vorable environment for corrosion. Thisis particularly true if you wash your carin the garage or drive it into the garagewhen it is still wet or covered withsnow, ice or mud. Even a heated ga-rage can contribute to corrosion un-less it is well ventilated so moisture isdispersed.

E020D01A-AAT

Keep Paint and Trim in GoodConditionScratches or chips in the finish shouldbe covered with "touch-up" paint assoon as possible to reduce the possi-bility of corrosion. If bare metal is show-ing through, the attention of a qualifiedbody and paint shop is recommended.

E020E01A-AAT

Don't Neglect the InteriorMoisture can collect under the floormats and carpeting to cause corro-sion. Check under the mats periodi-cally to be sure the carpeting is dry.Use particular care if you carry fertiliz-ers, cleaning materials or chemicals inthe car.These should be carried only in propercontainers and any spills or leaksshould be cleaned up, flushed withclear water and thoroughly dried.

E020B01A-AAT

Keep Your Car CleanThe best way to prevent corrosion is tokeep your car clean and free of corro-sive materials. Attention to the under-side of the car is particularly important.

o If you live in a high-corrosion area —where road salts are used, near theocean, areas with industrial pollu-tion, acid rain, etc.—, you shouldtake extra care to prevent corro-sion. In winter, hose off the under-side of your car at least once amonth and be sure to clean theunderside thoroughly when winteris over.

o When cleaning underneath the car,give particular attention to the com-ponents under the fenders and otherareas that are hidden from view. Doa thorough job; just dampening theaccumulated mud rather than wash-ing it away will accelerate corrosionrather than prevent it. Water underhigh pressure and steam are par-ticularly effective in removing accu-mulated mud and corrosive materi-als.

o When cleaning lower door panels,rocker panels and frame members,be sure that drain holes are keptopen so that moisture can escapeand not be trapped inside to ac-celerate corrosion.

E030A02A-DAT

WASHING AND WAXINGWashing Your HyundaiNever wash your car when the surfaceis hot from being in the sun. Alwayswash your car in the shade.

Wash your car frequently. Dirt is abra-sive and can scratch the paint if it is notremoved. Air pollution or acid rain maydamage the paint and trim throughchemical action if pollutants are al-lowed to remain in contact with thesurface. If you live near the ocean or inan area where road salts or dust con-


trol chemicals are used, you shouldpay particular attention to the under-side of the car. Start by rinsing the carto remove dust and loose dirt. In win-ter, or if you have driven through mudor muddy water, be sure to thoroughlyclean the underside as well. Use ahard direct stream of water to removeaccumulations of mud or corrosivematerials.High pressure car washes may causewater to enter your vehicle. Use a goodquality car-washing solution and followthe manufacturer's directions on thepackage.These are available at your Hyundaidealer or auto parts outlet. Don't usestrong household detergents, gaso-line, strong solvents or abrasive clean-ing powders as these may damage thefinish.Use a clean sponge or cloth, rinse itfrequently and don't damage the finishby rubbing too hard. For stubborn spots,dampen them frequently and removethem a little at a time.To clean whitewall tyres, use a stiffbrush or soap-impregnated steel-woolscouring pad.

To clean plastic wheel covers, use aclean sponge or soft cloth and water.

To clean cast aluminum alloy wheels,use a mild soap or neutral detergent.Do not use abrasive cleaners. Protectthe bare-metal surfaces by cleaning,polishing and waxing. Because alumi-num is subject to corrosion, be sure togive aluminum alloy wheels specialattention in winter. If you drive onsalted roads, clean the wheels thor-oughly afterwards.

After washing, be sure to rinse thor-oughly. If soapy water dries on thefinish, streaking will result.

When the weather is warm and thehumidity low, you may find it neces-sary to rinse each section immediatelyafter washing to avoid streaking.

After rinsing, dry the car using a dampchamois or soft, absorbent cloth. Thereason for drying the car is to removewater from the car so it will dry withoutwater spots. Don't rub, this can dam-age the finish.

If you find any nicks or scratches in thepaint, use touch-up paint to cover themto prevent corrosion. To protect thepaintwork of the car against corrosion,you must clean your Hyundai (at leastonce a month). Give special attentionto the removal of salt, mud and othersubstances on the underside of thesplashboards of the car. Make surethat the outlets and the underside ofthe doors are open. Paint damage canbe caused by small accumulation oftar, industrial precipitation, tree resin,insects and bird droppings, when notremoved immediately. If water alone isnot strong enough to remove the accu-mulated dirt, use a mild car washingsolution. Be sure to rinse the surfaceafter washing to remove the solution.Never allow the solution to dry on thepainted surfaces.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE 7- 5E030D01A-AAT

When to Wax AgainYou should polish and wax the caragain when water no longer beads ona clean surface but spreads out over alarger area.

E030E01A-AAT

Maintaining BumpersSpecial precautions must be observedto preserve the appearance of thebumpers on your Hyundai. They are:

o Be careful not to spill battery elec-trolyte or hydraulic brake fluid on thebumpers. If you do, wash it off im-mediately with clear water.

o Be gentle when cleaning the bumpersurfaces. They are made of softplastic and the surface can be dam-aged if mistreated. Do not use abra-sive cleaners. Use warm water andmild soap or car-washing solution.

o Do not expose the bumpers to hightemperatures. For example, if youhave your car repainted, do notleave the bumpers on the car if thecar is going to be placed in a high-temperature paint booth.

E040A01A-AAT

CLEANING THE INTERIORTo Clean the Vinyl UpholsteryTo clean the vinyl upholstery, first re-move loose dirt and dust with a vacuumcleaner. Then apply a solution of mildsoap or detergent and water using aclean sponge or soft cloth. Allow this tostay on the surface to loosen the dirt,then wipe with a clean damp sponge orcloth. If all the dirt stains are not re-moved, repeat this procedure until theupholstery is clean. Do not use gaso-line, solvent, paint thinner or otherstrong cleaners.

E030B01A-AAT

Spot CleaningDon't use gasoline, strong solvents orcorrosive cleaning agents. These candamage the finish of the car. To re-move road tar, use turpentine on aclean, soft cloth or commercially avail-able bug and tar remover. Be gentle.To remove dead insects or tree sap,use warm water and mild soap or car-washing solution. Soak the spot andrub gently. If the paint has lost itsluster, use a commercial car-cleaningpolish.

E030C01A-AAT

Polishing and WaxingAlways wash and dry the car beforepolishing or waxing or using a combi-nation cleaner and wax. Use a goodquality commercial product and followthe manufacturer's directions on thecontainer. Polish and wax the brighttrim pieces as well as the paint.

To Clean the Leather Upholstery(If Installed)In the normal course of use, leatherupholstered surfaces will, like anymaterial, pick-up dust and dirt. Thisdust and dirt must be cleaned off or itmay work into the surface of the leather,causing damage.

Fine leather needs care, and shouldbe cleaned when necessary. Washingleather thoroughly with soap and water


E040E01S-DAT

Cleaning the WindowsYou may use any household windowcleaner on the windows. However,when cleaning the inside of the rearwindow be careful not to damage therear window defroster wiring. Whencleaning rear windows wipe along thedefroster BARs rather than across.

E040D01A-AAT

Cleaning the Seat BeltsTo clean the seat belts, use a cloth orsponge with mild soap or detergentand warm water. Do not use strongdetergents, dye, bleach or abrasivematerials on the seat belts as this mayweaken the fabric.While cleaning the belts, inspect themfor excessive wear, cuts, fraying orother signs of damage and replacethem if necessary.

E040C01A-AAT

Cleaning the CarpetsUse a foam-type carpet cleaner. Clean-ers of this type are available in aerosolcans in liquid form or powder. Read theinstructions and follow them exactly.Using a vacuum cleaner with the ap-propriate attachment, remove as muchdirt from the carpets as possible. Applythe foam following the manufacturer'sdirections, then rub in overlappingcircles. Do not add water. These clean-ers work best when the carpet is keptas dry as possible.

will keep your leather lustrous, beauti-ful and ensure you have many years ofwear.Take a piece of cheese cloth and usingany mild soap and lukewarm water,work up a good lather. Thoroughlywash the leather. Wipe clean with aslightly damp cloth and dry with softcloth. Do this as often as the leatherbecomes soiled.

During tanning operations, sufficientoils are incorporated through process-ing that none need be applied duringthe life of the leather. Oil applied to thefinished surface will in no way help theleather and may do more harm thangood. Varnishes and furniture polishesshould never be used under any con-ditions.

CHECKING AND CHANGINGTHE ENGINE COOLANT

WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot. When the engineis hot, the engine coolant is underpressure and may erupt throughthe opening if the cap is removed.You could be seriously burned ifyou do not observe this precau-tion. Do not remove the radiatorcap until the radiator is cool to touch.

!

G050B01A-AAT

Recommended Engine CoolantUse a high quality ethylene-glycol cool-ant in a 50/50 mix with water. Theengine coolant should be compatiblewith aluminum engine parts. Additionalcorrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system mustbe maintained with the correct con-centration and type of engine coolantto prevent freezing and corrosion.Never allow the concentration of anti-freeze to exceed the 60% level or gobelow the 35% level, or damage to thecooling system may result. For properconcentration when adding or replac-ing the engine coolant, refer to thefollowing table.WARNING:

Used motor oil may cause irritationor cancer of the skin if left in con-tact with the skin for prolongedperiods of time. Wash your handsthoroughly with soap and warmwater as soon as possible after han-dling used oil.

To Check the Coolant LevelG050D02A-DAT

To Change the Engine CoolantThe engine coolant should be changedat those intervals specified in the vehiclemaintenance schedule in Section 5.

CAUTION:Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill coolanton the car, wash it off thoroughlywith clean water.

!

1. Park the car on level ground, set thehand brake and remove the radiatorcap when cool.

2. Be sure your drain receptacle is inplace. Open the drain cock on theradiator. Allow all the coolant todrain from the cooling system, thensecurely close the drain cock.

3. Check Section 9 for the capacity ofthe cooling system in your car. Then,following the manufacturer's direc-tions on the engine coolant con-tainer, add the appropriate quantityof coolant to the radiator.

4. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-wise without pressing down on it,until it stops. This relieves any pres-sure remaining in the cooling sys-tem. And remove the radiator capby pushing down and turning coun-terclockwise.Now fill the radiator with clean dem-ineralized or distilled water. Con-tinue to add clean demineralised ordistilled water in small quantitiesuntil the fluid level stays up in theradiator neck.

The coolant level can be seen on theside of the plastic coolant reservoir.The level of the coolant should bebetween the "L" and "F" lines on thereservoir when the engine is cold. If thelevel is below the "L" mark, add enginecoolant to bring it up between "L" and"F". If the level is low, inspect forcoolant leaks and recheck the fluidlevel frequently. If the level drops again,visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspec-tion and diagnosis of the reason for thecoolant leak.

Replacing Accessory Fuse

The fuse box for the lights and otherelectrical accessories will be found lowon the dashboard on the driver's side.Inside the box you will find a list show-ing the circuits protected by each fuse.If any of your car's lights or other elec-trical accessories stop working, a blownfuse could be the reason. If the fuse hasburned out, you will see that the metalstrip inside the fuse has burned through.If you suspect a blown fuse, follow thisprocedure:

1. Turn off the ignition and all otherswitches.

2. Open the fuse box and examineeach fuse. Remove each fuse bypulling it toward you (a small "fusepuller" tool is contained in the fusebox to simplify this operation).

3. Be sure to check all other fuses evenif you find one that appears to haveburned out.

G200A01A-AAT

CHECKING AND REPLACINGFUSESReplacing a Fusible Link

Melted Good

A fusible link will melt if the electricalcircuits from the battery are ever over-loaded, thus preventing damage to theentire wiring harness. (This could becaused by a short in the system draw-ing too much current.) If this everhappens, have a Hyundai dealer de-termine the cause, repair the systemand replace the fusible link. The fusiblelinks are located in a fuse box for easyinspection.

G200A01A

HLC4002-D


4. Replace the blown fuse by pressinga new fuse of the same rating intoplace. The fuse should be a snug fit.If it is not, have the fuse clip repairedor replaced by a Hyundai dealer. Ifyou do not have a spare fuse, youmay be able to borrow a fuse of thesame or lower rating from an acces-sory you can temporarily get alongwithout (the radio or cigarette lighter,for example). Always remember toreplace the borrowed fuse.

CHECKING THE BATTERY

WARNING:When working with batteries, care-fully observe the following precau-tions to avoid serious injuries.

The fluid in the battery contains a strongsolution of sulfuric acid, which is poi-sonous and highly corrosive. Be carefulnot to spill it on yourself or the car. If youdo spill battery fluid on yourself, imme-diately do the following:

G200B02A

Good Burned out

CAUTION:A burned-out fuse indicates that thereis a problem in the electrical circuit.If you replace a fuse and it blows assoon as the accessory is turned on,the problem is serious and shouldbe referred to a Hyundai dealer fordiagnosis and repair. Never replacea fuse with anything except a fusewith the same or a lower amperagerating. A higher capacity fuse couldcause damage and create a fire haz-ard.

NOTE:See page 6-32 for the fuse paneldescriptions.

Checking the BatteryKeep the battery clean. Any evidenceof corrosion around the battery postsor terminals should be removed usinga solution of household baking sodaand warm water. After the battery ter-minals are dry, cover them with a lightcoating of grease.

!

o If battery fluid is on your skin, flushthe affected areas with water for atleast 15 minutes and then seek medi-cal assistance.

o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinseout your eyes with water and getmedical assistance as soon as pos-sible. While you are being driven toget medical assistance, continue torinse your eyes by using a spongeor soft cloth saturated with water.

o If you swallow battery fluid, drink alarge quantity of water or milk fol-lowed by milk of magnesia, eat araw egg or drink vegetable oil. Getmedical assistance as soon as pos-sible.

While batteries are being charged (ei-ther by a battery charger or by thevehicle's alternator), they produce ex-plosive gases. Always observe thesewarnings to reduce the risk of injury:

o Charge batteries only in a well ven-tilated area.

o Do not permit flames, sparks orsmoking in the area.

o Keep children away from the area.

WARNING:Always read the followinginstructions carefully whenhandling a battery.Keep lighted cigarettes andall other flames or sparksaway from the battery.Hydrogen, which is a highlycombustible gas, is alwayspresent in battery cells andmay explode if ignited.Keep batteries out of thereach of children becausebatteries contain highly cor-rosive SULFURIC ACID. Donot allow battery acid to con-tact your skin, eyes, cloth-ing or paint finish.

If any electrolyte gets intoyour eyes, flush your eyeswith clean water for at least15 minutes and get immedi-ate medical attention. If pos-sible, continue to applywater with a sponge or clothuntil medical attention is re-ceived.If electrolyte gets on yourskin, thoroughly wash thecontacted area.If you feel a pain or a burn-ing sensation, get medicalattention immediately.Wear eye protection whencharging or working near abattery.Always provide ventilationwhen working in an en-closed space.

o When lifting a plastic-cased bat-tery, excessive pressure on thecase may cause battery acid toleak, resulting in personal injury.Lift with a battery carrier or withyour hands on opposite corners.

10- 2 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

H010A01A-DAT

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMYour Hyundai is equipped with anemission control system to meet allrequirements of ADR.There are three emission control sys-tems which are as follows.

1. Crankcase emission control sys-tem

2. Evaporative emission control sys-tem

3. Exhaust emission control system

In order to assure the proper functionof the emission control systems, it isrecommended that you have your carinspected and maintained by anauthorised Hyundai dealer in accor-dance with the maintenance sched-ule in this manual.

H010B01A-AAT

1. Crankcase Emission ControlSystem

The positive crankcase ventilationsystem is employed to prevent airpollution caused by blow-by gasesbeing emitted from the crankcase.This system supplies fresh air to thecrankcase through the air intake hose.Inside the crankcase, the fresh airmixes with blow-by gases, which thenpass through the PCV valve and intothe induction system.

H010C02A-DAT

2. Evaporative EmissionControl System (If Installed)

The Evaporative Emission ControlSystem is designed to prevent fuelvapors from escaping into the atmo-sphere. H010D01A-DAT

3. Exhaust Emission ControlSystem

This system has been integrated intoa highly effective system which con-trols exhaust emissions while main-taining good vehicle performance.

CanisterFuel vapors generated inside the fueltank are absorbed and stored in thecanister. When the engine is running,the fuel vapors absorbed in the can-ister are drawn into the induction sys-tem through the purge control sole-noid valve.

Purge Control Solenoid ValveThe purge control solenoid valve iscontrolled by the ECU; when the en-gine coolant temperature is low, andduring idling, it closes, so that evapo-rated fuel is not taken into the engine.After engine warm-up, during ordi-nary driving, it opens so as to intro-duce evaporated fuel to the engine.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 10- 3H020A01A-DAT

CATALYTIC CONVERTER

The catalytic converter is part of theexhaust emission control system. Itspurpose is to remove certain engineemission products from the engine'sexhaust. It looks something like amuffler and is located underneath thecar in the exhaust system.

H020B01A-DAT

About the Catalytic ConverterExhaust gases passing through thecatalytic converter cause it to operateat very high temperatures. As a re-sult, the introduction of large amountsof unburned gasoline may cause it tooverheat and create a fire hazard.This can be avoided by observing thefollowing:

o Use unleaded fuel only.o Maintain your engine in good con-

dition. Extremely high convertertemperatures can result from im-proper operation of the electrical,ignition or fuel injection systems.

o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks,or is hard to start, take your car toyour Hyundai dealer as soon aspossible and have the difficulty cor-rected.

o Avoid driving with a very low fuellevel. If you run out of petrol, itcould cause the engine to misfireand result in excessive loading ofthe catalytic converter.

o Avoid idling the engine for periodslonger than 10 minutes.

o Your Hyundai should not be eitherpushed or pulled to get it started.This can cause the catalytic con-verter to overload.

o Take care not to stop your Hyundaiover any combustible material suchas grass, paper, leaves or rags. Asthese materials could come in con-tact with the catalytic converter andcould cause a fire.

o Do not touch the catalytic con-verter or any other part of the ex-haust system while the engine isrunning as it is very hot and couldresult in burns.

o Remember that your Hyundaidealer is your best source of assis-tance.

These pressures were chosen to pro-vide the most satisfactory combinationof ride comfort, tyre wear and stabilityunder normal conditions. Tyre pres-sures should be checked at leastmonthly. Proper tyre inflation pressuresshould be maintained for these rea-sons:

o Lower-than-recommended tyre pres-sures cause uneven tread wear andpoor handling.

o Higher-than-recommended tyre pres-sures increase the chance of dam-age from impacts and cause uneventread wear.

CONSUMER INFORMATION 11- 3

CAUTION:Always observe the following:

o Check pressures when the tyresare cold. That is, after the car hasbeen parked for at least three hoursand hasn't been driven more than1.6 km or one mile since startingup.

o Check the pressure of your sparetyre each time you check the pres-sure of other tyres.

o Never overload your vehicle. Beespecially careful about overload-ing if you equip your vehicle witha luggage rack.

o Worn, old tires can cause acci-dents. If your tread is badly worn,or if your tires have been dam-aged, replace them.
