CHECKING
WARNING:
When working with batteries, carefully
serve the following precautions to avoid
serious injuries.
THE
BATTERY
Do not open the reservoir tank lid or radia-
tor cap while the engine is hot. The coolant
system is under pressure and any hot cool-
ant escaping could cause severe burns.

Anti-freeze
FULL

The fluid in the battery contains a strong solu-
tion of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and
highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on
yourself or the car. If you do spill battery fluid on
yourself, immediately do the following:
The engine coolant contains an ethylene glycol
anti-corrosion agent. The cylinder head and
coolant pump housing are cast aluminium alloy,
and periodic changing of the engine coolant is
necessary to prevent corrosion of these parts.
Because of the necessity of this anti-corrosion
agent, the coolant must not be replaced with
plain water even in summer.

If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the
affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assistance.
If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your
eyes with water and get medical assistance
as soon as possible. While you are being
driven to get medical assistance, continue
to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft
cloth saturated with water.
A translucent coolant reservoir tank is in the
engine compartment.
The required concentration of anti-freeze differs
depending on the expected ambient tempera-
ture.
The coolant level in this tank should be kept
between the "LOW" and "FULL" marks when
measured while the engine is warm and idling.
The cooling system is a closed system and
normally the loss of coolant should be very
slight. A noticeable drop in the coolant level
could indicate leakage.
If this occurs, have the system checked at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
If the level should drop below the "LOW" level
on the reservoir tank, add coolant.
Also, if the reservoir tank is completely empty,
remove the radiator cap and add coolant until
the level reaches the filler neck.

If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large
quantity of water or milk followed by milk of
magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetable
oil. Get medical assistance as soon as
possible.

CAUTION:
For effective anti-corrosion and anti-freeze
performance, keep the anti-freeze concen-
tration within the range of 30 to 60%.
Concentrations exceeding 60% will result in
a reduction of both the anti-freeze and cool-
ing performance thus adversely affecting
the engine.
While batteries are being charged (either by a
battery charger or by the vehicle’s alternator),
they produce explosive gases. Always observe
these warnings to prevent injuries from occur-
