NOTE: Gasoline Engine Only Before adding the coolant to the radiator, unscrew the flange bolt for fitting water outlet to escape the excess pressure. And if the coolant overflows from the hole while adding the coolant, screw the bolt and con- tinue to add the coolant. 4. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise with-
out pressing down on it, until it stops. Thisrelieves any pressure remaining in the cool- ing system. And remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning counterclockwise. Now fill the radiator with clean demineral-ized or distilled water. Continue to add clean demineralized or distilled water in small quan- tities until the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck.
5. Start the engine, top off the radiator with water and then add coolant to the reservoir until the level is between "LOW" and "FULL".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and check to be sure the drain cocks are fullyclosed and not leaking.
WARNING:The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool-
ant temperature and may sometimes oper- ate even when the engine is not running.
Gasoline Engine only
The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the cool- ant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cool. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "LOW" and "FULL". If the level is low, inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level fre- quently. If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis of the reason.
G050D01HP-GAT To Change the Engine CoolantThe engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5. CAUTION: Engine coolant can damage the finish of your car. If you spill engine coolant on the car, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the park-
ing brake and remove the radiator cap when cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allowall the engine coolant to drain from the cooling system, then securely close the drain cock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then, followingthe manufacturer’s directions on the engine

G090A01HP-AAT FILLING THE WASHER RESERVOIR
G090A01HP
The washer fluid reservoir supplies fluid to the windshield washer system.A good quality washer fluid should be used to fill the washer reservoir. The fluid level should be checked more frequently during inclement weather or whenever the washer system is in more frequent use.The capacity of the washer reservoir is 4.5 liters (4.75 U.S. quarts). CAUTION:
o Radiator antifreeze (engine coolant) should not be used in the washer system because it will damage the car's finish.
o The washer should not be operated if the washer reservoir is empty. This can dam-age the washer fluid pump.

G080A02A-AAT WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
The wiper blades should be carefully inspected from time to time and cleaned to remove accu- mulations of road film or other debris. To clean the wiper blades and arms, use a clean sponge or cloth with a mild soap or detergent and water. If the wipers continue to streak or smear the glass, replace them with genuine Hyundai re- placement parts or their equivalent. CAUTION:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass. This can result in more rapid wear of the wiper blades and may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum products such as engineoil, gasoline, etc.

To Check the Transmission Fluid Level
G110D03HP
Park the car on level ground with the parking brake engaged. When the transmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be at normal operating temperature and the engine idling.
G110C03HP-GAT
Transmission Fluid Capacity The fluid capacity of the automatic transmission
is; Gasoline - 10.5 liters (11.09 U.S. quarts) Diesel (2.9 CRDi) - 11.8 liters (12.47 U.S. quarts)
Diesel (2.5 TCI) - 8.2 liters (8.66 U.S. quarts)
WARNING:The transmission fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at normal oper- ating temperature. This means that the en- gine, radiator, exhaust system etc., are very hot. Exercise great care not to burn yourself during this procedure.

WARNING: It is always better to check the transmissionoil level when the engine is cool or cold. If the engine is hot, you should exercise great caution to avoid burning yourself on hot engine or exhaust parts. Park the car on level ground with the engine off.
1. Using a wrench of the correct size, loosen
the oil filler plug by turning it counterclock- wise and remove it with your fingers.
2. Use your finger to feel inside the hole. The oil level should be at its bottom edge. If it isnot, check for leaks before adding oil. To refill the transmission or bring the oil level up,add oil slowly until it reaches the proper level. Do not overfill.

AIR CONDITIONING CARE Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and engine
radiator) should be checked periodically for accumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. These can interfere with maximum cooling effi- ciency. When removing such accumulations, brush or hose them away carefully to avoid bending the cooling fans. G130B02A-AAT
To Replace the Fluid Recommended brake fluid conforming to DOT
3 or DOT 4 specification should be used. The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid contamination from foreign matter or moisture.
NOTE: Do not allow any other liquids to contami-
nate the brake fluid. Seal damage will result.
WARNING:Use caution when handling brake fluid. It
can damage your vision if you get it in your eyes. It will also damage your vehicle’s paint if spilled on it and not removed immediately.
G130A01A-AAT
CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID To Check the Clutch Fluid
G130A01HP
The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder
should be checked when performing other un- der hood services. The system should be checked for leakage at the same time. Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is always between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer.
G120E02A-AAT
Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING: Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage
your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from a sealed container. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain open any longer than required. This will prevent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake sys- tem and cause improper operation.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then
unscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour the recommended fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser- voir and tighten.

WARNING: Fuel vapors are dangerous. Before refuel-
ing, always stop the engine and never allowsparks or open flames near the filler area. Ifyou need to replace the filler cap, use agenuine Hyundai replacement part.
If you open the fuel filler cap during high
ambient temperatures, a slight "pressuresound" may be heard. This is normal andnot a cause for concern.
Whenever you open the fuel filler cap, turn
it slowly.
The fuel-filler flap may be opened from insidethe vehicle by pulling up on the fuel-filler flapopener located below the left of the driver's sidecrash pad. NOTE: If the fuel-filler flap will not open because ice has formed around it, tap lightly or pushon it to break the ice and release it. Do notlever the flap. If necessary, spray around theflap with an approved de-icer fluid (do notuse radiator anti-freeze) or move the vehicleto a warm place and allow the ice to melt.
