CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
Engine oil is essential to the performance andservice of the engine. It is suggested that youcheck the oil level at least once a week innormal use and more often if you are on a tripor driving in severe conditions. ZG030B1-E

While the engine is idling, apply the brakes and move the gear selector lever from "P" to each
of its other positions — "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" —and then return to "N". With the engine stillidling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any movingparts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far as it will go, thenremove it again. Now check the fluid level on
the dipstick. It should be in the "HOT" rangeon the dipstick.
Fluid level must be within this range
3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use a funnel to add transaxle fluid through the dipsticktube until the level reaches the "HOT" range.
Do not overfill.

G120A01A-AAT CHECKING THE BRAKES CAUTION: Because brakes are essential to the safe oper- ation of the car, it is suggested that they bechecked and inspected by your Hyundai dealer.The brakes should be checked and inspectedfor wear at those intervals specified in thevehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5. G120B01A-AAT
Checking the Brake Fluid Level WARNING:
Use caution when handling brake fluid. It
can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. It will also damage your vehicle’s paint
if spilled on it and not removed immediately.
G120C02A-AAT
Recommended Brake Fluid Use only hydraulic brake fluid conforming to
DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications in your brakingsystem. Follow the instructions printed on thecontainer.
G120D01A-AAT
To Check the Fluid Level The fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should
be checked periodically. The level should bebetween the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on theside of the reservoir. If the level is at or below
the "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring it upto "MAX". Do not overfill.
WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool-
ant temperature and may sometimes oper- ate even when the engine is not running.
Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan, so that you are notinjured by a rotating fan blade. As the en-
gine coolant temperature decreases, the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normalcondition. NOTE:
Only lint free cloth should be used for wip-
ing the dipstick. The presence of lint within the transaxle may cause problems with thenormal function of the transaxle.

Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and let it run at fast idle for several minutes with the air conditioner set at one of its colder settings.
2. Open the hood and check two hoses by touching with your fingers. One line is theevaporator inlet, the other is the outlet. Ifthere is a temperature difference betweenthe two hoses, the refrigerant is low and thesystem should be recharged by your Hyundaidealer.
CAUTION:Running the air conditioning system for ex-tended periods of time with a low refrigerantlevel may damage the compressor. ZG140D1-A
Lubrication To lubricate the compressor and the seals in the system, the air conditioner should be run forat least 10 minutes each week. This is particu-larly important during cool weather when the airconditioning system is not otherwise in use.
G140A01A-AAT
AIR CONDITIONING CARE Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and engine
radiator) should be checked periodically for accumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc.
These can interfere with maximum cooling effi-
ciency. When removing such accumulations,brush or hose them away carefully to avoidbending the cooling fans.

When the air conditioning is being used regular-
ly, the compressor drive belt tension should be checked at least once a month.
To check the drive belt tension, press down on
the belt halfway between the engine crankshaftand compressor pulleys. Pressing with yourfinger, you should not be able to deflect this beltanymore than 0.197 ~ 0.217 inches. If you have

Adding Brake Fluid WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage
your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from a
sealed container. Do not allow the fluid canor reservoir to remain open any longer than
required. This will avoid entry of dirt andmoisture which can damage the brake sys-tem and cause improper operation.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then
unscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour therecommended fluid into the reservoir. Do notoverfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser-voir and tighten.

HEADLIGHT BULB
G270A01X
Replacement instructions:
1. Allow the bulb to cool. Wear eye protection.
2. Always grasp the bulb by its base, avoid touching the glass.
3. Disconnect the connector, then remove the dust cover.
4. Push the bulb spring for removing the head- light bulb.
5. Remove the headlight bulb. If the bulb is burned out, replace it with the same watt- age.
6. Installation is the reverse order of the re- moval.
7. Use the protective cap and carton to promptly dispose of the old bulb.
8. Check for proper headlight aim.
noise stops during warm up, there is no
abnormal function in the system. This is dueto a power steering fluid characteristic inextremely cold conditions.
Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid. NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty. ZG230B1-E
POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at those inter-vals specified in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5.The power steering hoses should be replaced ifthere is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hose couldcause premature failure.
G260A01A-AAT
REPLACING LIGHT BULBS Before attempting to replace a light bulb, be
sure the switch is turned to the "OFF" position.
The drawings show how to reach light bulbs sothey may be changed. Be sure to replace the
burned-out bulb with one of the same numberand wattage rating.
G220C01A-AAT
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan
The condenser cooling fan should come on
automatically whenever the air conditioning is in operation.
G230A03A-GAT
POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
G230A01X
The power steering fluid level should be checked
regularly.
To check the power steering fluid level, be sure
the ignition is "OFF", then check to make cer- tain that the power steering fluid level is be-
tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi-tions (below -4°F(-20°C)). In this case, if the
