4. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it, until it stops. This relieves any pres-sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning coun-terclockwise.Now fill the radiator with clean dem-ineralized or distilled water. Con- tinue to add clean demineralized or distilled water in small quantitiesuntil the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck. G050D01L

5. Start the engine, top off the radia- tor with water and then add enginecoolant to the reservoir until the level is between "LOW" and "FULL".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir
caps and check to be sure thedrain cocks are fully closed and not leaking.

SPARK PLUGS
Your engine was originally equipped
with platinum-tipped spark plugs. (If installed)
Platinum-tipped spark plugs will last
longer than conventional type sparkplugs and can be identified by blue lines on the ceramic shell.Unleaded: 1.0 ~ 1.1 mm (0.039 ~ 0.043 in.) Leaded: 0.7 ~ 0.8 mm (0.028 ~ 0.032 in.)

CHECKING THE BRAKES
CAUTION:
Because brakes are essential to
the safe operation of the car, it is suggested that they be checked and inspected by your Hyundaidealer. The brakes should be checked and inspected for wear at those intervals specified in thevehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
G120B01A-A AT
Checking the Brake Fluid Level
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brakefluid. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. It will alsodamage your vehicle's paint if spilled on it and not removed im- mediately.
G110D03Y
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use a funnel to add transaxle fluid through the dipstick tube until the level reaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature andmay sometimes operate even whenthe 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, thefan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
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" -- and then return to "N". With the engine still idling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as faras it will go, then remove it again. Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the "HOT"range on the dipstick. HXG556J

POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the
power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals.
The power steering hoses should be
replaced if there is severe surface cracking, scuffing or worn spots. De- terioration of the hose could causepremature failure.
G230A03A-GAT
POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
HXG2006
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 power steering fluid level is betweenthe "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from the power
steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (be- low - 20°C). In this case, if the noise stops during warm up, there is no abnormal function in the sys- tem. This is due to a power steer-ing fluid characteristic in extremely cold conditions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid. NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir is empty.
G220A01A-AAT
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOL- ING FANS
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe 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 coolant temperature decreases the fan willautomatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
G220B01A-AAT
Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine cooling fan should come
on automatically if the engine coolanttemperature is high.
G220C01A-AAT
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan
The condenser cooling fan should
come on automatically whenever the air conditioning is in operation.

7- 2 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010A01A-GAT
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibi-tion rules of your province.
There are three emission control sys-
tems which are as follows.
1) Crankcase emission control sys-
tem
2) Evaporative emission control sys-
tem
3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and maintained by an au-thorized Hyundai dealer in accordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual. H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent airpollution caused by blow-by gasesbeing emitted from the crankcase. This system supplies fresh air to the crankcase through the air intake hose.Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve and intothe induction system.
H010C02Y-GAT
2. Evaporative Emission
Control System
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmo- sphere. Canister
While the engine is inoperative, fuel
vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canis- ter. When the engine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canisterare drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoidvalve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the ECM; when the en- gine coolant temperature is low, and during idling, it closes, so that evapo- rated fuel is not taken into the surgetank. After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, it opens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to the surgetank.
H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
The exhaust emission control system
is a highly effective system whichcontrols exhaust emission while main- taining good vehicle performance.
H010E01Y-GAT
EGR System
This system helps control nitrogen
oxides by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into the engine, therebyreducing cylinder combustion tem- perature.
