DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE 6- 31
1. Remove the engine cover.
2. Disconnect the air intake hose from
air cleaner cover.
3. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the fuel filter.
4. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
5. Check to be sure that the warning
lamp illuminates when the ignition key is turned to "ON", and that it goes off when the engine is started. If in doubt, consult your nearestauthorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should beremoved by an authorized Hyundai dealer. G300B01FC
WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away anywater drained out in this manner, because the fuel mixed in the watermight be ignited and result in a fire.

5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the center of each headlight beam pat-tern) and the horizontal line (throughthe center of each headlight beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw the horizontal paral- lel line at 30 mm (1.18 in.) under the horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillipsscrewdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low
beam to each vertical line with aphillips screwdriver - HORIZONTAL AIMING. HTB269

Vertical Aiming
G290A01FC-GAT HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUST- MENT Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground
and press the front bumper and rear bumper down several times. Place the vehicle at a distance of 3,000 mm (118 in.) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,engine oil and fuel, and spare tire,jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn
on the headlight (low beam).

1- 42 FEATURES OF YOUR HYUNDAI
SB215B1-E ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERA- TURE GAUGE The engine coolant temperature gauge indicates the engine coolant tempera-ture and will, under normal circum- stances, give an indication in the "Nor- mal" or centre portion of the scale.Should the indication move into theupper or "Hot" portion of the scale,engine overheating is indicated. Underthese circumstances, the vehicle should be brought to rest as soon as is safe to do so and the engine turned off. Oncethe engine has cooled somewhat, thecoolant level and the condition of thegenerator/water pump drive belt shouldbe checked. If the cause of the over- SB215C1-E SPEEDOMETER
HTB007A
heating cannot be readily established, the assistance of a Hyundai dealershould be sought.
!
HTB004A
The speedometer indicates the vehicle speed in both miles and kilometres perhour.
WARNING:
The engine cooling system is pres-surized and removal of the radiator cap when the engine is hot may cause hot water and steam to beejected from the radiator resulting inburns and scalding. The radiator capmust only be removed when the en-gine has cooled. Do not add cold water to a hot engine to avoid the possibility of engine damage. Theuse of plain water in the coolingsystem is not recommended sincethe aluminium components of thecooling system require the use of a corrosion inhibitor found in the rec- ommended Ethylene Glycol type antifreeze solutions.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY 3- 5
D040A01TB-EAT TEMPORARY SPARE TYRE (Not all models) The following instructions for the tem- porary spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as
practical after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specifiedpressure. The tyre pressure should be periodically checked and main- tained at the specified pressurewhile the tyre is stored.
!
6. If the cause of the overheating can-
not be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to nor- mal. Then, if coolant has been lost, carefully remove the radiator capand add water to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the coolantexpansion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is es-
tablished that the engine is operat-ing normally. If the engine over- heats repeatedly, the advice of a Hyundai dealer should be sought. WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected from the radiator resulting in burns orscalding.
!
Inflation Pressure
Tyre Size
T105/70D14 420 kPa (60 psi)
2. The spare tyre should only be used temporarily and should be returned to the luggage compartment as soonas the original tyre can be repaired or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 50 mph(80 km/h) is not recom-mended.
4. As the temporary spare tyre is spe- cifically designed for your car, itshould not be used on any other vehicle.
Spare Tyre Pressure
CAUTION:
Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soonas possible by a Hyundai dealer. YD050A1-E SPARE TYRE For Full Size (Not all models) The following instructions for the FULL SIZE spare tyre should be observed: Check inflation pressure as soon aspossible after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tyre pressure should be periodi-cally checked and maintained at the specified pressure while the tyre is stored. Spare Tyre Pressure

5- 8 VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
6ZF070C1-A
o Engine coolant
The coolant should be changed at the intervals specified in the mainte- nance schedule.
6ZF060H1-A
o Air cleaner filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is
recommended when filter is replaced.
6ZF060J1-A
o Spark plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
6ZF070B1-A
o Cooling system
Check the cooling system part, such as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections for leakage and dam- age. Replace any damaged parts. 6ZF070D1-A
o Manual transaxle oil
Inspect the manual transaxle oil ac-
cording to the maintenance schedule. NOTE:
If the oil level is low, check for
possible leaks before adding oil. Do not overfill.
F070E03A-AAT
o Automatic transaxle fluid
The fluid level should be in the "HOT"
range of the dipstick, after engine and transaxle are at normal operating tem- perature. Check the Automatic Transaxle Fluid level with the enginerunning and the transaxle in neutral, with the parking brake properly ap- plied. Use DIAMOND ATF SP-III orSK ATF SP-III when adding or chang- ing fluid.
6ZF060G1-A o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap The vapour hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. Make sure that a new vapourhose or fuel filler cap is correctly re- placed. 6ZF060F1-A
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi- dence of heat and/or mechanical dam-age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessive swelling indicate deterioration. Par-ticular attention should be paid to ex- amining those hose surfaces nearest to high heat sources, such as theexhaust manifold.Inspect the hose routing to assurethat the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source, sharp edges or moving component which might causeheat damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make surethey are secure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immediately if there is any evidence of deterioration or damage.
