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.

Use only the approved transmission lubricant. The recommended lubricants are complete in themselves and the use of additives is neither required nor recommended. The use of additives may invalidate the vehicle warranty. Transmission Lubricant Level Checking
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on level ground with the parking brake firmly applied and the engine cool. Remove the level plug from the transmission when lubricant should begin to drip from the level hole. If the level is low and no lubricant is seen to drip, add the required quantity of lubricant and replace the plug.
SG110A1-E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID The automatic transmission fluid level should be checked and changed at those intervals pre- scribed in the maintenance schedule. It is of paramount importance that only the specified fluid is used when replenishing or changing the fluid. The use of other fluids may irreparably damage the transmission and invalidate the manufacturers warranty. In addition the ingress of dirt or lint may prevent correct functioning of the transmission and care must be exercised to prevent the ingress of such matter. CAUTION: The transmission fluid level must be checked with the engine running and at normal oper- ating temperature and therefore care must be exercised to prevent injury occurring through contact with rotating or hot parts of the en- gine. G110B03A-AAT Recommended Fluid Your Hyundai automatic transaxle is specially designed to operate with DIAMOND ATF SP-
III,
SK ATF SP- III.
Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid is not covered by your new vehicle limited warranty. G110D02GK-EAT Transmission fluid level checking The vehicle must be parked on level ground with the parking brake firmly applied and the engine at normal operating temperature. (Normal operat- ing temperature will only be achieved when the vehicle has been driven for 6 miles or more). With the engine idling and the footbrake applied, the transmission selector should be moved from the "P" position through to the "L" position and back to the "N" or "P" position. Open the bonnet and remove the transmission dipstick, remembering that care must be exer- cised to prevent injury occurring through contact with hot or rotating parts of the engine. Wipe the dipstick, replace it fully and promptly remove it again. The fluid level should be be- tween the upper and lower marks. Fluid need only be added if the level is at or below the lower mark and must never be increased above the
