ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of paramount
importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil level mustbe checked on a daily basis, whenever thevehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip,whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an ap-
proved grade and specification of oil is used toavoid the possibility of serious engine damageand premature wear. The use of "budget price"oil is a false economy that must be avoided ifthe maximum reliability and useful life is to beobtained from the vehicle.
SG020B1-E
DAILY OPERATING CHECKS The following items should be checked on a
daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled,whichever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and opera- tion.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the daily
operating checks indicate that any item of equip-ment related to the safety or roadworthiness ofthe vehicle is not functioning correctly. G030B01HP-EAT
Recommended Oil
1. Petrol Engine
A multi grade oil having a specification which
meets A.P.I. specification of SG, SG/CD, SH or SH/CD is recommended. The oil viscosity shouldbe selected according to the operating environ-ment of the engine by means of the table shownabove. The engine oil recommendations arecomplete in themselves and the use of addi-tives is neither required nor recommended. Theuse of engine oil additives may result in invali-dation of the vehicle warranty.
NOTE:The use of a 5W-20 multi grade oil is not
recommended for sustained high speed use.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
6-16 If a belt is loose, adjust it by:
1. Loosen the adusting bolts just enough so that the components can be moved.
2. Whilst pulling outward on the pry bar or screw driver, test the belt deflection with your thumb.
3. After tightening the adjusting bolts, be sure to recheck the belt tension. Overtighteningdrive belts can cause excessive wear andfailure in driven components and belts.

ADJUSTING DRIVE BELTS YG200A1-E
CHECKING ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
1. With the engine turned off, check the belts for cracks, fraying, or excessive wear. Re- place the belt if it is in poor condition.
2. With your thumb (with a force approx. 10 kg) press on each belt midway between thepulleys. Each belt should deflect no morethan the amount shown in figure.

CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL CLEARANCE
95 in. (75 mm)
SSA6180A
You need a helper to check the brake pedal
clearance. With the engine running, have your helper press down on the brake pedal severaltimes and then hold it down with a force of about490 N (50 Kg, 110 lbs). The brake pedal clear-ance is the distance from the top surface of thebrake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under thefloor mat.
If the brake pedal clearance is not within the
limits specified in the illustration, have it in-spected by your Hyundai dealer and adjustedor repaired if necessary.

OWNER MAINTENANCE 6-19
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 cer- tain that the power steering fluid level is be-tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.
YG220A1-E
POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at thoseintervals specified in the vehicle maintenanceschedule in Section 5. The power steering hosesshould be replaced if there are severe surfacecracking, pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Dete-rioration of the hoses could cause prematurefailure.
NOTE: The power steering pump may be noisy
when the engine is first started in the ex- treme cold (-4°F). This noise is not abnormaland will stop as the engine warms up. If thepower steering pump continues to be noisyafter the engine has warmed up, have itinspected by your Authorized HyundaiDealer. G230A03A-EAT POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM (FOR DIESEL ENGINE)
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as
described in the illustration if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter isreplaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a longtime.
G350A01HP
NOTE: Do not check whilst the engine is running.
Do not start when power steering fluid res- ervoir is empty. Fluid Recommendation
Only automatic transmission fluid meeting the
specification of PSF-3 or ATF DEXRON 2 should be used in the power steering system.
