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 Engine 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 light-
ing equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer opera- tion.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mir- rors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the
daily operating checks indicate that
any item of equipment related to the
safety or roadworthiness of the vehicle
is not functioning correctly. G030B02A-EAT
Recommended Oil
1. Petrol engine
A multi grade oil having a specification
which meets A.P.I. specification of SG
or above is recommended. The oil vis-
cosity should be selected according to
the operating environment of the engine
by means of the table shown in the
illustration. The engine oil recommen-
dations are complete in themselves
and the use of additives is neither
required nor recommended. The use of
engine oil additives may result in invali-
dation of the vehicle warranty.
G030A01FC-EAT
ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of para-
mount importance. An excessively high
or low oil level may result in irreparable
damage being sustained by the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked
on a daily basis, whenever the vehicle
is refuelled or before starting a long trip,
whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an
approved grade and specification of oil
is used to avoid the possibility of seri-
ous engine damage and premature wear.
The use of "budget price" oil is a false
economy that must be avoided if the
maximum reliability and useful life is to
be obtained from the vehicle.

ENGINE OIL AND FILTER
REPLACEMENT
The engine oil and filter must be changed
at the time or mileage interval specified
in the maintenance schedule. If the
vehicle is operated under severe or
adverse conditions, the oil and filter
must be replaced more frequently.
To replace the oil and filter, proceed as
follows:
1. Ensure that the engine is at normaloperating temperature and park the
vehicle on level ground with the park-
ing brake securely applied and the
engine turned off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the oil filler cap.

1. Park the vehicle on level ground and
ensure that the parking brake is firmly
applied, and the engine allowed to
cool.
Do not attempt this operation whilst
the engine is hot since burning or
scalding may result.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to col-
lect the displaced coolant and posi-
tion this under the radiator drain tap.
3. With the heater temperature control
set to the "HOT" position, remove
the radiator cap and open the radiator
drain tap. 5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new
engine coolant (refer to section 9)
and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator cap
still removed and continue to add
coolant as the level decreases as air
is expelled from the system. When
the level remains constant, replace
the radiator cap and replenish the
coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks are
present.
4. When the engine coolant has drained completely, close the drain tap en-
suring that this is not over tightened. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-
gine coolant temperature and may
sometimes operate even when the
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 tem-
perature decreases, the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal
condition.

Recommended Oil
Use only the approved transaxle lubri-
cant. The recommended lubricants are
complete in themselves and the use of
additives is neither required nor recom-
mended. The use of additives may
invalidate the vehicle warranty.
Transaxle Lubricant Level
Checking
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on
level ground with the parking brake
firmly applied and the engine cool. Re-
move the level plug from the transaxle
when lubricant should begin to drip from
the level hole. If the level is low and no
lubricant is seen to drip, add the re-

TRANSAXLE FLUID LEVEL
CHECKING
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground with the parking brake firmly
applied and the engine at normal oper-
ating temperature. (Normal operating
temperature will only be achieved when
the vehicle has been driven for 6 miles
or more).
SG110A1-E
AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE
FLUID
The automatic transaxle fluid level
should be checked and changed at
those intervals prescribed in the main-
tenance schedule. It is of paramount
importance that only the specified fluid
is used when replenishing or changing
the fluid. The use of other fluids may
irreparably damage the transaxle and
invalidate the manufacturers warranty.
In addition the ingress of dirt or lint may
prevent correct functioning of the
transaxle and care must be exercised
to prevent the ingress of such matter.
CAUTION:
The transaxle on fluid level must be
checked with the engine running and
at normal operating temperature and
therefore care must be exercised to
prevent injury occurring through
contact with rotating or hot parts of
the engine.
! G110B03A-AAT
Recommended Fluid
Your Hyundai automatic transaxle is
specially designed to operate with DIA-
MOND ATF SP-III or SK ATF SP-III.
Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid
is not covered by your new vehicle

With the engine idling and the footbrake
applied, the transaxle selector should
be moved from the "P" or "N" position
through to the "L" position and back to
the "N" or "P" position.
Open the bonnet and remove the
transaxle dipstick, remembering that
care must be exercised to prevent in-
jury occurring through contact with hot
or rotating parts of the engine.

Fluid level should be within
"HOT" range
HTB164 Wipe the dipstick, replace it fully and
promptly remove it again. The fluid
level should be between the upper and
lower marks. Fluid need only be added
if the level is at or below the lower mark
and must never be increased above the
higher mark. If additional fluid is re-
quired, this should be poured into the
transmission through the dipstick tube
with the aid of a suitable funnel. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-
gine coolant temperature and may
sometimes operate even when the
engine is not running. Use extreme
caution when working near the

WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 seconds
after shutting off engine. High pres-
sure pump, rail, injectors and high
pressure pipes are subject to high
pressure even after the engine
stopped. The fuel jet produced by
fuel leaks may cause serious injury,
if it touch the body. People using
pacemakers should not move than
