What to do in an emergency
Jump starting procedure
Do not connect it to or near any part
moves when the engine is
cranked. Make sure that there is no
contact between the bodywork of the
two vehicles; otherwise, there is the
danger of short circuits.
Do not allow the jumper cables to con-
tact anything except the correct battery
terminals or the correct ground. Do not
lean over the battery when making
connections.
Push-starting
that
Your manual transaxle-equipped vehicle
should not be push-started because it
might damage the emission control sys-
tem.
✽
NOTICE
If the battery is discharged, the engine
can be started using a battery of anoth-
er vehicle and two jumper cables. Only
use jumper cables with fully insulated
clamp handles.
To prevent personal injury or damage to
both vehicles, adhere strictly to the fol-
lowing procedure.
Vehicles
equipped
with
automatic
transaxle cannot be push-started.
Follow the directions in this section for
jump-starting.
WARNING
CAUTION - Battery cables
1.
Make sure the booster battery is 12-
volt and that its negative terminal is
grounded.
Never tow a vehicle to start it
because the sudden surge forward
when the engine starts could cause
a collision with the tow vehicle.
Do not connect the jumper cable from
the negative terminal of the booster
battery to the negative terminal of the
discharged battery. This can cause
the discharged battery to overheat
and crack, releasing battery acid.
2.
3.
4.
If the booster battery is in another vehi-
cle, do not allow the vehicles to touch.
Turn off all unnecessary electrical
loads.
Connect the jumper cables in the exact
sequence shown in the illustration.
First connect one end of a jumper
cable to the positive terminal of the dis-
charged battery (1), then connect the
other end to the positive terminal on
the booster battery (2). Proceed to
connect one end of the other jumper
cable to the negative terminal of the
booster battery (3), then the other end
to a solid, stationary, metallic point (for
example, the engine lifting bracket)
away from the battery (4).
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
first starting attempt is not successful,
wait a few minutes before making
another attempt in order to allow the
discharged battery to recharge.
If the cause of your battery discharging is
not apparent, we recommend that the
system be checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
