The fuse box for the lights and other elec- trical accessories will be found on the left side of crash pad. Inside the box you will find a list showing the circuits protected by each fuse. If any of your car's lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown (open) fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has opened, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has melted through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this proce- dure:

6 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE 22

1. Turn off the ignition and all other

switches.

2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the relay and fuse box of the engine room to simplify this opera- tion).

3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears to have opened.

4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a new fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repaired or replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower rating from an accessory you can temporarily get along without (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Always remember to replace the borrowed fuse.

CAUTION:

An open fuse indicates that there is a problem in the electrical circuit. If you replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is serious and should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse with anything ex- cept a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and create a fire hazard.

NOTE: See page 6-35 for the fuse panel descrip- tions.

CHECKING THE BATTERY

G210A01A-AAT

HJM5008

WARNING:

Batteries can be dangerous! When work- ing with batteries, carefully observe the following precautions to avoid serious injuries.

The fluid in the battery contains a strong solution of sulfuric acid, which is poison- ous 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:

o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assis- tance.

o 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 satu- rated with water.

o 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.

While batteries are being charged (either by a battery charger or by the vehicle's generator), they produce explosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries from occurring:

o Keep children away from the area.

6 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE 24

! WARNING:

Always read the following in- structions carefully when han- dling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the battery. Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode if ignited. Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly corrosive SUL- FURIC ACID. Do not allow bat- tery acid to contact your skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish. If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 min- utes and get immediate medi- cal attention. If possible, con- tinue to apply water with a sponge or cloth until medical attention is received.

! WARNING:

If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burning sensation, get medical atten- tion immediately. Wear eye protection when charging or working near a bat- tery. Always provide ventilation when working in an enclosed space.

o When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid to leak, resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.

o Never attempt to charge the battery when the battery cables are con- nected.

o The electrical ignition system works

with high voltage. Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.

CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS

7 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

H010A02O-AAT Your Hyundai is equipped with an emis- sion control system to meet all require- ments of the U.S. Environmental Protec- tion Agency or California Air Resources Board. There are three emission control systems which are as follows.

(1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system (3) Exhaust emission control system

In order to assure the proper function of the emission control systems, it is recom- mended that you have your car inspected and maintained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in accordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual.

Caution for the Inspection and Mainte- nance Test (V6 Vehicle with Traction Control System)

o To prevent the vehicle from misfiring during dynamometer testing, discon- nect the ABS connector in the engine compartment. (2.7 V6 only)

o For more information, see shop manual

(Wheel Speed Sensor).

o After dynamometer testing is com- pleted, erase the ABS/TCS DTC (Diagnotic Trouble Code) with a GST (Generic Scan Tool) or Hi-Scan Pro.

H010B01A-AAT

1. Crankcase Emission Control

System

The positive crankcase ventilation system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crankcase. This system supplies filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve and into the induc- tion system.

H010C01S-AAT

2. Evaporative Emission Control (In- cluding ORVR: Onboard Refuel- ing Vapor Recovery) System

The Evaporative Emission Control Sys- tem is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. (The ORVR system is designed to allow the vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded into a canister while refueling at the gas station, preventing the escape of fuel va- pors into the atmosphere.)

Canister Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine is running, the fuel va- pors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve.

Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV) The purge control solenoid valve is con- trolled by the Engine Control Module (ECM); when the engine coolant tempera- ture is low during idling, the PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine. After the engine warms-up during ordinary driving, the PCSV opens to intro- duce evaporated fuel to the engine.

H010D01A-AAT

3. Exhaust Emission Control

System

The Exhaust Emission Control System is a highly effective system which controls ex- haust emissions while maintaining good vehicle performace.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

WARNING:

o Remember that your Hyundai dealer

is your best source of assistance.

o Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle over any combustible material such as grass, paper, leaves or rags. These materials might contact the hot cata- lytic converter and a fire might result.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER

H020A02A-AAT

(If installed)

Catalytic Converter

H020A01JM Hyundai vehicles are equipped with a monolith type three-way catalytic converter to reduce the carbon monoxide, hydrocar- bons and nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas. Exhaust gases passing through the catalytic converter cause it to operate at a very high temperature. The introduction of large amounts of unburned gasoline into the exhaust may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and create a fire hazard. This risk may be reduced by observing the following:

! WARNING:

o Use unleaded fuel only. o Maintain the engine in good operating condition. Extremely high catalytic converter temperatures can result from improper operation of the elec- trical, ignition or multiport electronic fuel injection.

o If your engine stalls, pings, knocks, or is hard to start, have your Hyundai dealer inspect and repair the problem as soon as possible.

o Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. Running out of gasoline may cause the engine to misfire and result in damage to the catalytic converter.

o Avoid idling the engine for periods

longer than 10 minutes.

o The vehicle should not be pushed or pulled to get started. This may cause the catalytic converter to overheat and create a fire hazard.

o Do not touch the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust sys- tem while the catalytic converter is hot. Shut off the engine, wait for at least one hour before touching the catalytic converter or any other part of the exhaust system.

Type C

I030A02-A These pressures were chosen to pro- vide the most satisfactory combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability under normal conditions. Tire pressures should be checked at least monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures should be maintained for these reasons:

WARNING:

o Inspect your tires frequently for proper inflation as well as wear and damage. Always use a tire pressure gauge.

o Tires with too much or too little pressure wear unevenly causing poor handling, loss of vehicle control, and sudden tire failure leading to accidents, injuries, and even death. The recommended cold tire pressure for your vehicle can be found in this manual and on the tire label located on the driver's side of the center pillar. o Worn tires can cause accidents. Replace tires that are worn, show uneven wear, or are damaged. See page 8-12.

o Remember to check the pressure of your spare tire. Hyundai recom- mends that you check the spare every time you check the pressure of the other tires on your vehicle.

NOTE: o Underinflation also results in ex- cessive wear, poor handling and reduced fuel economy. Wheel de- formation also is possible. Keep your tire pressures at the proper levels. If a tire frequently needs refilling, have it checked by your Hyundai Dealer.

o Overinflation produces a harsh ride, excessive wear at the center of the tire tread, and a greater possibility of damage from road hazards.

WARNING:

Overinflation or underinflation can reduce the tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sud- den tire failure. This could rusult in loss of vehicle control and potential injury.

I035A01JM-AAT

CHECKING TIRE INFLATION PRES- SURE Check your tires once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire.

How to Check Use a good quality gage to check tire pressure. You can not tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they're underinflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold. - "Cold" means your vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than 1
mile (1.6 km).

Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem. Press the tire gage firmly onto the valve to get a pressure mea- surement. If the cold tire inflation pres- sure matches the recommended pres- sure on the tire and loading information label, no further adjustment is neces- sary. If the pressure is low, add air until you reach the recommended amount. If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pres- sure with the tire gage. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.

CAUTION:

Always observe the following:

o Check pressures when the tires are cold. (After the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or hasn't been driven more than one mile (1.6 km) since starting up.)

o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pres- sure of other tires.

o Never overload your vehicle. Be especially careful about overload- ing if you equip your vehicle with a luggage rack.

o Worn, old tires can cause acci- dents. If your tread is badly worn, or if your tires have been dam- aged, replace them.

TIRE SIDEWALL LABELING

5, 6

I030B04JM

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and describes the fundamen- tal characteristics of the tire and also provides the tire identification number (TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tire in case of a recall.

1. Manufacturer or Brand name

o Manufacturer or Brand name is

shown.

2. Tire size (example: P235/60R16 99T) o The "P" indicates the tire is de- signed for passenger vehicles. A "T" is the designation for a tempo- rary spare tire.

o Three-digit number (235): This num- ber gives the width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.

o Two-digit number (60): This num- ber, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire's ratio of height to width.

o R: The "R" stands for radial. o Two-digit number (16): This num- ber is the wheel or rim diameter in inches.

o Two (or three) digit number (99): This number is the tire's load in- dex. It is a measurement of how much weight each tire can sup- port.

o T: Speed Rating. The speed rating denotes the speed at which a tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time. The ratings range from "A" to "Z" (98 to 186 MPH). 3. TIN (Tire Identification Number) for new tire (example: DOT XX XX XXX XXXX) o DOT: Abbreviation for the "Depart- ment of Transportation". The sym- bol can be placed above, below or to the left or right of the Tire Iden tification Number. Indicates tire is in compliance with the U.S. De- partment of Transportation Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

o 1st two-digit code: Manufacturer's

identification mark

o 2nd two-digit code: Tire size o 3rd three-digit code: Tire type code

(Optional)

o 4th four-digit code: Date of Manu-

facture

CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

6. Maximum load rating

This number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire. When replacing the tires on the vehicle, always use a tire that has the same load rating as the factory installed tire.

7. Uniform Tire Quality Grading

(UTQG): Tire manufacturers are required to grade tires based on three perfor- mance factors: treadwear, traction and temperature resistance. For more information, see Uniform Tire Qual- ity Grading on page 8-14.

o Four numbers represent the week and year the tire was built. For example, the numbers 3105 means the 31st week of 2005.

4. Tire ply composition and material The number of layers or plies of rubbercoated fabric in the tire. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the materials in the tire, which in- clude steel, nylon, polyester, and others. The letter "R" means radial ply construction; the letter "D" means diagonal or bias ply construction; and the letter "B" means belted-bias ply construction.

5. Maximum permissible inflation

pressure This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should be put in the tire. Do not exceed the maximum permissible inflation pressure. Refer to the Tire and Loading Information label for recommended inflation pres- sure.

I030D01JM-AAT
