Carry Emergency EquipmentDepending on the severity of the weather where
you drive your car, you should carry appropri-
ate emergency equipment. Some of the items
you may want to carry include tire chains, tow
straps or chains, flashlight, emergency flares,
sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a window
scraper, gloves, ground cloth, coveralls, a blan-
ket, etc.
C160J01A-AAT
Don’t Let Ice and Snow Accumulate
Underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice can build
up under the fenders and interfere with the
steering. When driving in severe winter condi-
tions where this may happen, you should peri-
odically check underneath the car to be sure
the movement of the front wheels and the
steering components is not obstructed. transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car
cannot roll. Then release the parking brake.
C160D01F-AATCheck Battery and Cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the battery
system. Visually inspect the battery and cables
as described in Section 6 (See page 6-16). The
level of charge in your battery can be checked
by your Hyundai dealer or a service station.
C160E01A-AATChange to "Winter Weight" Oil if
Necessary
In some climates it is recommended that a
lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used dur-
ing cold weather. See Section 9 for recommen-
dations. If you aren’t sure what weight oil you
should use, consult your Hyundai dealer. tenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter,
have your coolant tested to assure that its
freezing point is sufficient for the temperatures
anticipated during the winter.
C160H01A-AATUse Approved Anti-Freeze in Window
Washer System
To keep the water in the window washer sys-
tem from freezing, add an approved anti-freeze
solution in accordance with instructions on the
container. Window washer anti-freeze is avail-
able from Hyundai dealers and most auto parts
outlets. Do not use engine coolant or other
types of anti-freeze as these may damage the
finish.
C160F01F-AATCheck Spark Plugs and Ignition
System
Inspect your spark plugs as described in Sec-
tion 6 (See page 6-6) and replace them if
necessary. Also check all ignition wiring and
components to be sure they are not cracked,
worn or damaged in any way.
C160G01A-AATTo Keep Locks from Freezing
To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an
approved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key
opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it
with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the
ice. If the lock is frozen internally, you may be
able to thaw it out by using a heated key.
Handle the heated key with care to avoid burn-
ing the fingers.
C160I01A-AAT
Don’t Let Your Parking Brake Freeze
Under some conditions your parking brake can
freeze in the engaged position. This is most
likely to happen when there is an accumulation
of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or
if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk the
parking brake may freeze, apply it only tempo-
rarily while you put the gear selector lever in
"P" (automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual

G100B01A-AATTo Check the Manual Transaxle
Fluid Level
SSA6100B
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 or suitable tool to feel inside
the hole. The oil level should be at its bottom
edge. If it is not, check for leaks before
adding oil. To refill the transaxle or bring the
oil level up,add oil slowly until it reaches the
proper level. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the plug, screw it in with your fin-
gers and then tighten securely with the
wrench.
G090A01A-AATFILLING THE WASHER RESERVOIR
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 bad weather or
whenever the washer system is in more fre-
quent use.
The capacity of the washer reservoir is 3.2 U.S.
quarts (3.0 Liters).
CAUTION:o Radiator anti-freeze (engine coolant)
should not be used in the washer system
because it will damage the car’s finish.
o The washer lever should not be pulled
and the washer should not be operated
if the washer reservoir is empty. This can
damage the washer fluid pump.
Transaxle lubricant in the manual transaxle should
be checked at those intervals specified in the
vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
Recommended OilUse only HYUNDAI GENUINE PARTS MTF
75W/90 (API GL-4) or equivalents in the manual
transaxle.
Manual Transaxle Oil CapacityThe oil capacity of the manual transaxle:
2.3 us quarts (2.15L)
WARNING:It is always better to check the transaxle oil
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.
