If Engine Turns Over Normally but
Does Not Start
1. Check fuel level.
2. With the key in the "OFF" position,
check all connectors at ignition coil
and spark plugs. Reconnect any that
may be disconnected or loose.
3. Check the fuel line in the engine room.
4. If the engine still refuses to start, call a
Hyundai dealer or seek other qualified
assistance.
WARNING:
If the engine will not start, do not push
or pull the car to start it. This could
result in a collision or cause other dam-
age. In addition, push or pull starting
may cause the catalytic converter to
be overloaded and create a fire hazard.
1. If your car has an automatic transaxle,
be sure the gear selector lever is in "N"
or "P" and the emergency brake is set.
2. Check the battery connections to be
sure they are clean and tight.
3. Turn on the interior light. If the light
dims or goes out when you operate the
starter, the battery is discharged.
4. Check the starter connections to be
sure they are securely tightened.
5. Do not push or pull the vehicle to start
it. See instructions for "Jump Starting".
