WARNING Do NOT turn the engine or camshaft with the timing belt removed. The pistons will contact the valves and cause internal engine damage. NOTE The radio may have a coded theft protection circuit. Obtain the code before disconnecting the battery, removing the radio fuse, or removing the radio. CAUTION Timing belt maintenance is extremely important. All Hyundai models use interference-type non-freewheeling engines. Should the timing belt break in these engines, the valves in the cylinder head will come in contact with the pistons, causing major engine damage. The recommended replacement interval for timing belts is 60,000 miles. CAUTION On models with an air bag, wait at least 90 seconds from the time that the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position and the battery is disconnected before performing any further work. 1.8L (Acc) And 2.0L (Aba) EnginesNOTE Do not turn the engine or camshaft with the camshaft drive belt removed. The pistons will contact the valves and cause internal engine damage.
To install:

Fig. Align the flywheel (A) or driveplate (B) as shown for TDC alignment for cylinder No. 1-Volkswagen 1.8L (ACC) and 2.0L (ABA) engines
Fig. When the No. 1 cylinder is at TDC, the ignition rotor should face the notch in the distributor housing-Volkswagen 2.0L (ABA) engine
NOTE When running the engine, there will be a growling noise that rises and falls with engine speed if the belt is too tight. NOTE Do not turn the engine or camshaft with the camshaft drive belt removed. The pistons will contact the valves and cause internal engine damage.
