ways wash thoroughly after any contact. Keep used oils out of reach of children. It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses and soil. Use only authorized waste collection facilities including civic amenity sites and garages for the disposal of used oil and oil filters. If in doubt, contact the local authority for dis- posal instructions. SG050A1-E ENGINE COOLANT CHECKING AND REPLACING WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot, since the system is pressurized and coolant may be ejected from the radiator resulting in scalding. SG050B1-E Coolant recommendations
Only ethylene glycol based coolant with a corro- sion inhibitor suited to aluminium alloy engine components should be used in the cooling sys- tem. No further additives or inhibitors should be used. The coolant specific gravity should be checked as prescribed in the maintenance sched- ule to ensure adequate frost and corrosion pro- tection. In addition, the engine coolant must be replaced at the specified interval since the corro- sion inhibitor properties deteriorate with time. It is important to note that whilst an increase in the concentration of anti freeze gives an increase in the level of frost protection, a solution which is in excess of 65% anti freeze will result in reduced frost protection and engine overheating. There- fore the recommended concentration of 50% should not be exceeded for general use. The use of methanol based anti freeze com- pounds may result in engine overheating and will invalidate the vehicle warranty. NOTE: It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an air conditioning system have a coolant concen- tration of the recommended strength at all times. The use of the air conditioning system when the cooling system is filled with water only will result in the heater matrix freezing and subsequently bursting.SG050C1-E Engine Coolant Level The engine coolant level may be observed through the side of the plastic coolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add coolant of the correct concentration until the level is between the "LOW" and "Full" marks. If the level falls below the "LOW" mark on a regular basis despite being topped up, consult a Hyundai dealer. SG050D1-E To Change the Engine Coolant The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5. NOTE: Care should be taken to ensure that coolant is not allowed to spill onto the paintwork since the finish may become damaged. If coolant spillage occurs, the affected area should be rinsed thoroughly with water.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and ensure
that the parking brake is firmly applied, and the engine allowed to cool. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS OPERATION WHILST THE ENGINE IS HOT SINCE BURN-ING OR SCALDING MAY RESULT.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the displaced coolant and position this under the radiator drain tap.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
6-8 CAUTION: Sparking plugs must only be cleaned using purpose designed equipment. Wire brushing may damage the centre electrodeinsulator causing mis-firing to occur. Only the correct grade of sparking plug should be used. Use of an incorrect grade may result in serious engine damage.
3. With the heater temperature control set to the
"HOT" position, remove the radiator cap and open the radiator drain tap.
4. When the engine coolant has drained com- pletely, close the drain tap ensuring that this is not over tightened.
5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new engine
coolant (refer to section 9) and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator cap still removed and continue to add coolant as the level decreases as air is expelled from the system. When the level remains constant, replace the radiator cap and replenish the coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks are present.
WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool- ant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, the fan will automati- cally shut off. This is a normal condition. G060B02GK-EAT SPARKING PLUG REPLACEMENT This operation should only be performed when the engine is cold.
1. Remove the engine rocker cover.NOTE: It is recommended that the spark plug for Engine 2.7L should be changed by an autho- rized Hyundai dealer.
2. Remove plug lead from the sparking plug to
be replaced, pulling the lead by the rubber cap. (Pulling the lead may damage the carbon conductor).
3. Clean around the base of the plug to be removed, and install the plug socket ensuring that the ceramic insulator does not become damaged. Turn the socket counterclockwise to remove the plug.

6-12 SG120A1-E BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKING CAUTION: Correct operation of the braking system is essential to the safe operation of the vehicle and therefore, any maintenance operations other than those listed below should be en- trusted to a Hyundai dealer. SG120C2-E Brake Fluid Recommendations Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications or higher may be used in the braking system. Care should be taken to ob- serve the instructions and precautions printed upon the container. SG120D1-E Brake Fluid LevelThe fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having care- fully cleaned the area surrounding the reservoir cap to ensure that dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be borne in mind that the brake fluid level will decrease slightly as the friction linings of the pads and shoes become worn and that this is a normal condition.
higher mark. If additional fluid is required, thisshould be poured into the transmission through the dipstick tube with the aid of a suitable funnel. WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool- ant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, the fan will automati- cally shut off. This is a normal condition.
CAUTION:The automatic transmission unit is a preci- sion engineered assembly and correct op- eration is dependant upon the exclusion of dirt and lint from the unit. Therefore, it is imperative that only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used for wiping the dipstick and that the area around the dipstick is thoroughly clean prior to level checking or adding fluid. Fluid Capacity The total fluid capacity of the transmission unit is 7.8 litres.
