FUSES
Blade type
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, turn the
engine and all switches off, and then
disconnect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with one
of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid us-
ing the system involved. We recom-
mend that you immediately consult a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

WARNING
OTA070039
NEVER replace a fuse with anything
but another fuse of the same rating.
A vehicle’s electrical system is protect-
ed from electrical overload damage by
fuses.
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels,
one located in the driver’s side panel
bolster, the other in the engine com-
partment.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, accesso-
ries, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse will
be melted or broken.
• A higher capacity fuse could cause
damage and possibly cause a fire.
• Do not install a wire or aluminium
foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and possibly a fire.
NOTICE
Do not use a screwdriver or any oth-
er metal object to remove fuses be-
cause it may cause a short circuit
and damage the system.
