ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
!
YG210A1-E
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Do not touch the radiator fan until it is completely stopped.As the coolant temperature de-creases the fan will automaticallyshut off. This is a normal condi- tion.
Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should auto- matically come on if the engine cool-ant temperature is high.
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan (in front of the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioneris in operation.
POWER STEERING HOSES
YG220A1-E It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hoses could cause premature failure. NOTE: The power steering pump may be noisy when the engine is firststarted in the extreme cold (-4°F). This noise is not abnormal and will stop as the engine warms up.If the power steering pump contin- ues to be noisy after the engine has warmed up, have it inspectedby your Authorized Hyundai Dealer.

2. Dotted lines in the illustration show centre of headlights. SPECIFICATION:
"H" Horizontal centre line of headlights from ground: Low Beam: 26.7 in. (679mm) High Beam: 26.5 in. (672mm) "W" Distance between each headlight cen- tre : Low Beam: 47.3 in. (1,202mm) High Beam: 38.0 in. (966mm) "L" Distance between the headlights and the wall that the lights are tested against : 118.11 in. (3,000 mm)
1. Keep all tyres inflated to the cor-
rect pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press the front bumper & rearbumper down several times. Placevehicle at a distance of 118.1 in. (3m) from the test wall.
