G240A01A-AAT POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. Thepower steering hoses should be re- placed if there is severe surface crack- ing, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora-tion of the hose could cause prema- ture failure. G300A01TB-GAT REMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER(DIESEL ENGINE) If the fuel filter warning light illuminates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as describedbelow.
G230A03A-GAT POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL 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 certain that the powersteering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering pump may be heard imme-diately after the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops during warm

up, there is no abnormal function in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in ex-tremely cold conditions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir is empty.
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

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).

SB210K1-EOIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure light illuminates when the engine is running, an in-sufficient oil pressure level for con-tinued safe operation of the engine exists. Continued operation of the engine in this condition may resultin serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the light will illuminate when the igni- tion is turned "on" and will be extin- guished when the engine is started.If the oil pressure warning light illu-minates whilst the engine is run-ning, stop the engine immediatelyand check the engine oil level. If the level is insufficient, add the required amount of oil as indicated by theengine oil dipstick. If the light fails to extinguish when the engine is re-started, do not continue to operatethe vehicle.If the oil pressure light illuminatesduring normal operation and the cause is not an insufficient oil level, or the light fails to illuminate whenthe ignition is turned "on", contactthe nearest Hyundai dealer beforefurther operating the vehicle.
Warning light operation The parking brake/brake fluid level warn- ing light will be illuminated wheneverthe ignition switch is turned to the "ON"position irrespective of whether or notthe parking brake is applied and must be extinguished when the engine starts and the parking brake released.If the warning light fails to extinguish orilluminates at any other time, the ve-hicle must be brought to rest in a safelocation and the level of brake fluid in the reservoir checked. If the fluid level is incorrect, fluid conforming to DOT 3or DOT 4 specifications should be added.If, after correcting the brake fluid level,the warning light continues to be illumi-nated, the advice of the nearest Hyundai dealer must be sought before the ve- hicle is driven again.
Your Hyundai is equipped with a diago-nally split dual braking system whichwill ensure that in the event of one of thebrake circuits becoming defective, ap- proximately fifty per cent of the normal braking performance will be available.If failure of one of the circuits occurs,the required amount of pedal effort,pedal travel and stopping distance willbe increased. Use of the gearbox is
WARNING:
In the event of problems being sus-pected with the braking system, theadvice of the nearest Hyundai dealermust be sought before the vehicle isdriven. Driving the vehicle with ei-ther an electrical or hydraulic brak- ing system defect may be danger- ous, resulting in accident or per-sonal injury.

The braking system employs a vacuum servo in order that the pedal efforts arereduced. Power for the servo is derivedfrom the engine and therefore, in theevent of the engine stopping or thevehicle being towed, pedal efforts will be substantially increased.
