To equalize tread wear, it is recommended that the tires be rotated every 10,000 Km or sooner if irregular wear develops. During rotation, check the tires for correct balance.
When rotating tires, check for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tire pressure, improper wheel alignment, out-of –balance wheels, severe braking or severe cornering. Look for bumps or bulges in the tread or side of tire.
Replace the tire if you find either of these conditions. Replace the tire if fabric or cord is visible. After rotation, be sure to bring the front and rear tire pressures to specification and check lug nut tightness.
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected from electrical overload damage by fuses.
The vehicle has generally 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one located in the driver’s side panel bolster, the other in the engine compartment near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, accessories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will be melted.
If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver’s side fuse panel. Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating.
Wash your car thoroughly and frequently atleast a month.
While washing pay special attention on removal of any dirt, salt or any foreign particle.
For better washing, you may use a car washing shampoo to wash the vehicle.
Do not use strong soap, chemical detergents or hot water to wash the vehicles.
Never wash the engine compartment with a water jet as it may cause failure of electrical components located in engine compartment.
Prevent perfume and cosmetic oil from contacting the dashboard. If they do contact wipe off immediately.
Remove dust and loose dirt from the upholstery using a vacuum cleaner at regular intervals.
If the interior glass surface of the vehicle become fogged due to deposition of oily, greasy and waxy film, the same must be cleaned using a glass cleaner.
If the carpet becomes wet, do not let it be there for long, it may create a musty smell and corrode the floor.
The jack is provided for emergency tire changing only. To prevent the jack from “rattling” whilst the vehicle is in motion, store it properly. Follow jacking instructions to reduce the possibility of personal injury.
Your spare tire is stored underneath your vehicle, directly below the cargo area.
Open the tailgate.
Find the plastic hex bolt cover and remove the cover.
Use the wheel brace to loosen the bolt enough to lower the spare tyre.Turn the wheel brace counterclockwise until the spare tire reaches the ground.
After the spare tire reaches the ground, continue to turn the wheel brace counterclockwise, and draw the spare tire outside. Never rotate the wheel brace excessively, otherwise the spare tire carrier may be damaged.
Remove the retainer (1) from the centre of the spare tire.
Lay the tire on the ground with the valve stem facing up.
Place the wheel under the vehicle and install the retainer (1) through the wheel centre.
Turn the wheel brace clockwise until it clicks.
Park on a level surface and apply the parking brake firmly.
Shift the shift lever into R (Reverse).
Activate the hazard warning flasher.
Remove the wheel brace, jack, jack handle, and spare tire from the vehicle.
Block both the front and rear of the wheel that is diagonally opposite the jack position.
Loosen the wheel nuts counterclockwise one turn each, but do not remove any nut until the tire has been raised off the ground.
Place the jack at the front or rear jacking position closest to the tire you are changing. Place the jack at the designated locations under the frame. The jacking positions are plates welded to the frame with two tabs and a raised dot to index with the jack.
Insert the jack handle into the jack and turn it clockwise, raising the vehicle until the tire just clears the ground. This measurement is approximately30 mm (1.2 in). Before removing the wheel nuts, make sure the vehicle is stable and that there is no chance for movement or slippage.
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove them with your fingers. Slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub, pick up the spare tire, line up the holes with the studs and slide the wheel onto them. If this is difficult, tip the wheel slightly and get the top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until the wheel can be slid over the other studs.
To reinstall the wheel, hold it on the studs, put the wheel nuts on the studs and tighten them finger tight. The nuts should be installed with their tapered small diameter ends directed inward.
Jiggle the tire to be sure it is completely seated, then tighten the nuts as much as possible with your fingers again.
Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the wheel brace counterclockwise.
Check the fuel line in the engine compartment.
If the engine still does not start, call an authorized HYUNDAI dealer or seek other qualified assistance. Connect cables in numerical order and disconnect in reverse order.
Jump starting can be dangerous if done incorrectly. Therefore, to avoid harm to yourself or damage to your vehicle or battery, follow the jump starting procedures. If in doubt, we strongly recommend that you have a competent technician or towing service to jump start your vehicle.
Use only a 12-volt jumper system. You can damage a 12-volt starting motor, ignition system, and other electrical parts beyond repair by use of a 24-volt power supply (either two 12-volt batteries in series or a 24-volt motor generator set).
Make sure the booster battery is 12-volt and that its negative terminal is grounded.
If the booster battery is in another vehicle, 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 discharged 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). Do not connect it to or near any part that moves when the engine is cranked. Do not allow the jumper cables to contact anything except the correct battery terminals or the correct ground. Do not lean over the battery when making connections.
Start the engine of the vehicle with the booster battery and let it run at 2,000 rpm, then start the engine of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
If the cause of your battery discharging is not apparent, you should have your vehicle checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
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.
Prior to working on the light, firmly apply the parking brake, ensure that the ignition switch is turned to the “LOCK” position and turn off the lights to avoid sudden movement of the vehicle and burning your fingers or receiving an electric shock.
Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb with one of the same wattage rating. Otherwise, it may cause damage to the fuse or electric wiring system.
Open the bonnet.
Loosen the retaining bolts and remove the headlight assembly from the body of the vehicle.
Disconnect the power connector from the back of the headlight assembly.
Remove the headlight bulb cover by turning it counterclockwise.
Disconnect the headlight bulb socket connector.
Unsnap the headlight bulb retaining wire by depressing the end and pushing it upward.
Remove the bulb from the headlight assembly.
Install a new headlight bulb and snap the headlight bulb retaining wire into position by aligning the wire with the groove on the bulb.
Connect the headlight bulb socket connector.
Install the headlight bulb cover by turning it clockwise.
Connect the power connector to the back of the headlight assembly.
Reinstall the headlight assembly to the body of the vehicle.
If the headlight aiming adjustment is necessary after the headlight assembly is reinstalled, consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
