What to do in an emergency
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
If your temperature gauge indicates over-
heating, you experience a  loss of power,
or  hear  loud  pinging  or   knocking,  the
engine  is probably  too  hot. If  this  hap-
pens, you should:
CAUTION - Battery cables
WARNING
Do  not  connect  the  jumper  cable
from  the  negative  terminal  of  the
booster battery  to the negative ter-
minal   of  the   discharged  battery.
This can cause  the discharged bat-
tery to  overheat  and crack,  releas-
ing battery acid.
While  the engine  is  running, keep
hair, hands and clothing away  from
moving parts  such  as the  fan and
drive belts to prevent injury.
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it
is safe to do so.
5. If the water  pump drive belt  is broken
or engine  coolant is  leaking out,  stop
the  engine  immediately  and  call  the
nearest authorized Hyundai  dealer for
assistance.
2.
Place  the   gear  selector   lever  in  P
(automatic transaxle) or  neutral (man-
ual  transaxle)   and   set  the   parking
brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn
it off.
5.
Start the engine of the vehicle with the
booster battery  and let it  run at 2,000
rpm, then start  the engine of the vehi-
cle with the discharged battery.
If the cause of your battery discharging is
not apparent, you should have your vehi-
cle  checked  by  an authorized  Hyundai
dealer.
3.
If engine  coolant is running  out under
the  car or  steam  is coming  out  from
the hood, stop the engine. Do not open
the hood until the coolant has stopped
running or  the steaming has  stopped.
If  there  is  no  visible  loss  of  engine
coolant   and   no   steam,   leave   the
engine running  and check  to be  sure
the engine  cooling fan  is operating. If
the fan is  not running, turn the  engine
off.
WARNING
Do  not   remove  the   radiator  cap
when  the  engine  is  hot. This  can
allow coolant to be blown out of the
opening and cause serious burns.
Push-starting
Vehicles
equipped
with
automatic
transaxle cannot be push-started.
Follow  the directions  in  this  section for
jump-starting.
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 satisfactory, check for
coolant   leaking   from   the   radiator,
hoses or under the  car. (If the air con-
ditioning had been  in use, it is  normal
for  cold  water to  be  draining  from  it
when you stop).
CAUTION
Never   tow   a  vehicle   to   start   it
because the  sudden surge forward
when the engine starts could cause
a collision with the tow vehicle.
