WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
3.
If 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 cool-
ant has stopped running orthe steaming has
stopped. If there is no visible loss of 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.
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 conditioner had been in use, it is normal
for cold water to be draining from it when
you stop).
6. Ifyou cannotfind the cause ofthe overheat-
ing, wait until the engine temperature has
retumed to normal. Then, if coolant has
been lost, carefully remove the radiator cap
and add water to bring the fluid level in the
reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for fur-
thersigns ofoverheating. Ifoverheating hap-
pens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assis-
tance.
