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.

0.039 ~ 0.043 in.
(1.0 ~ 1.1 mm )
This operation should only be performed
when the engine is cold.
1. Remove the centre cover from the engine rocker cover.
2. Remove plug lead from the sparking plug to be replaced, pulling the lead
by the rubber cap. (Pulling the lead
may damage the carbon conductor).
3. Clean around the base of the plug to be removed, and install the plug
socket ensuring that the ceramic
insulator does not become damaged.
Turn the socket counterclockwise to
remove the plug. CAUTION:
Sparking plugs must only be cleaned
using purpose designed equipment.
Wire brushing may damage the cen-
tre electrodein-sulator causing mis-
firing to occur. Only the correct grade
of sparking plug should be used.
Use of an incorrect grade may result
in serious engine damage.
Prior to installing a sparking plug, the
gap between the centre and outer elec-
trodes must be checked and adjusted
as necessary.
Adjustment is facilitated by bending the
outer electrode towards or away from
the centre electrode. Under no circum-
stances should attempts be made to
adjust the position of the centre elec-
trode.
4. Insert the sparking plug into the cyl- inder head and screw by the wrench
and until the plug contacts the seat-
ing area. Tighten the plug with the
socket by a further 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn
only. 5. Replace the plug lead ensuring that
the cap is pushed firmly into place.
Confirm that the cap is correctly
seated by lightly pulling upon it.
NOTE:
When replacing the spark plug, al-
ways use the genuine parts recom-
mended.

Brake Fluid Level
SG120A1-E
BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKINGcurrents in the Common Rail system
produce considerable magnetic
fields.
!
CAUTION:
The automatic transaxle unit is a
precision engineered assembly and
correct operation is dependant upon
the exclusion of dirt and lint from the
unit. Therefore, it is imperative that
only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used
for wiping the dipstick and that the
area around the dipstick is thor-
oughly clean prior to level checking
or adding fluid.
Fluid Capacity
Fluid Capacity
The total fluid capacity of the transaxle
unit is 6.1 litres. SG120C2-E
Brake Fluid Recommendations
Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or
DOT 4 specifications or higher may be
used in the braking system. Care should
be taken to observe the instructions
and precautions printed upon the con-
tainer.
!
CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking sys-
tem is essential to the safe operation
of the vehicle and therefore, any main-
tenance operations other than those
listed below should be entrusted to a
Hyundai dealer.
The fluid level in the brake fluid reser-
voir should be checked periodically.
The level should be between the "MIN"
and "MAX" marks on the side of the
reservoir. If the level is at or below the
"MIN" mark, fluid should be added. It
should be borne in mind that the brake
fluid level will decrease slightly as the
friction linings of the pads and shoes
become worn and that this is a normal
condition.

FUSIBLE LINKS
The fusible link prevents damage to the
wiring harness in the event of an elec-
trical system malfunction. Failure of a
fusiblelink is indicative of a serious
overload condition having occurred and
therefore the electrical system should
be checked by a Hyundai dealer before
a replacement link is fitted.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should a
fusible link be replaced with any-
thing other than a new link of the
same rating. The use of higher rated
links or other means of connecting
the circuit will create a potential fire
hazard.G200B01E-EAT
INDIVIDUAL CIRCUIT FUSES
The fuse box containing the individual
circuit fuses will be found in the back-
side of multi box located in the right side
of driver. The multi box is removed by
pulling lightly and then releasing the lid.
A fuse rating grid will be found on the
reverse side of the cover. In the event
of fuse failure, the fuse should be re-
placed with one of equivalent rating. A
fuse removal tool is provided within the
fuse box to facilitate replacement.
In the event of a replacement fuse
failing shortly after installation a mal-
function within the circuit protected by
that fuse is indicated. The circuit should
be checked by a Hyundai dealer at the
first available opportunity. HTB180-D
HTB223
WARNING:
The use of replacement fuses having
a higher rating than specified or other
means of connecting the circuit will
create a potential fire hazard.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries contain
sulphuric acid which is corrosive
and poisonous. Hydrogen gas is
emitted from the battery which is
explosive when combined with oxy-
gen. The following precautions must
be strictly observed to avoid per-
sonal injury or damage to the ve-
hicle.
HTB165 SG220A1-E
ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
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.
The engine cooling fan should operate
before the temperature gauge reaches
the upper portion of the scale and the
condenser fan should operate when-
ever the air conditioning is in use.
