Hyundai Santa Fe: Charging System / Description and operation
The charging system includes a battery, an alternator with a built-in regulator,
and the charging indicator light and wire.
The Alternator has eight built-in diodes, each rectifying AC current to DC current.
Therefore, DC current appears at alternator "B" terminal.
In addition, the charging voltage of this alternator is regulated by the battery
voltage detection system.
The main components of the alternator are the rotor, stator, rectifier, capacitor
brushes, bearings and V-ribbed belt pulley. The brush holder contains a built-in
electronic voltage regulator.
Alternator Management System |
Alternator management system controls the charging voltage set point in order
to improve fuel economy, manage alternator load under various operating conditions,
keep the battery charged, and protect the battery from over-charging. ECM controls
generating voltage by duty cycle (charging control, discharging control, normal
control) based on the battery conditions and vehicle operating conditions.
The system conducts discharging control when accelerating a vehicle. Vehicle
reduces an alternator load and consumes an electric power form a battery.
The system conducts charging control when decelerating a vehicle. Vehicle increases
an alternator load and charges a battery.

Your multi-purpose passenger vehicle is defined as a Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV).
SUV’s have higher ground clearance and a narrower track to make them capable of
performing in a wide variety of off-road applications. The specific design characteristics
give them a higher center of gravity than ordinary vehicles making them more likely
to roll over if you make abrupt turns...

The vehicles are equipped with a Supplemental Air Bag System for the driver’s
seat and front passenger’s seats.
The front air bags are designed to supplement the three-point seat belts. For
these air bags to provide protection, the seat belts must be worn at all times when
driving.
