What to do in an emergency
IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS
F050000AFD-UK
6. If the cause of the  overheating cannot
be found, wait until the engine temper-
ature has  returned to normal. Then,  if
coolant  has  been  lost,  carefully  add
coolant  to  the  reservoir  to bring  the
fluid  level  in  the  reservoir  up  to the
base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the
coolant expansion tank  to the halfway
mark. To  ensure  the correct  water  to
coolant  mix is  obtained  after  top up,
testing  by  an  authorised   repairer  is
required.
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:
WARNING
Whilst the  engine is  running, keep
hair, hands and clothing away  from
moving parts  such  as the  fan and
drive belts to prevent injury.
1.
2.
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 HYUNDAI authorised  repairer
for assistance.
Place  the   gear  selector   lever  in  P
(automatic   transmission)   or  neutral
(manual   transmission)   and  set   the
parking brake. If the air conditioning  is
on, turn it off.
7. Proceed with  caution until  it is estab-
lished that the engine is operating nor-
mally. If  the engine  overheats repeat-
edly, the advice  of a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer should be sought.
3.
If engine  coolant is running  out under
the car  or   steam is  coming out  from
the  bonnet,  stop the  engine.  Do  not
open the bonnet 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 operat-
ing.  If  the fan is not  running, turn  the
engine off.
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.
CAUTION
Serious  loss   of  coolant   indicates
there is a leak in the cooling system
and this should be checked as soon
as  possible  by  a  HYUNDAI  autho-
rised repairer.
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).
