CHANGING THE POLLEN FIL-
TER (In Front of evaporator unit)
(Not all models)
The pollen filter is located in front of the
evaporator unit behind the glove box.
It operates to decrease pollutants from
entering the car and to filter the air.
1. Remove the adjusting pins on both
sides of the glove box to open half
the glove box.

Off Season Maintenance
The air conditioning must be run for ten
minutes or so weekly during periods
when the system would not normally be
used to ensure that the compressor and
seals are lubricated. If this precaution
is not observed the compressor seals
may become stuck to the compressor
shaft and damaged when the system is
next used resulting in a loss of refriger-
ant and damage to the compressor.
SG140C1-E
Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and run at idle for
several minutes with the refrigera-
tion system running at the coldest
setting.
2. Open the bonnet and inspect the sight glass on the top of the receiver
dryer.
3. If the refrigerant charge is insuffi- cient, a flow of bubbles will be ob-
served through the sight glass.
4. If the refrigerant charge is satisfac- tory, no bubbles will be observed
through the sight glass. CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning system
with a low refrigerant level may dam-
age the compressor.
!
The air conditioning compressor drive
belt should be checked to ensure free-
dom from damage or excessive wear
and correct tension. The belt tension is
correct when the belt deflects by about
0.3 inches (8 mm) (1.1L: 5 ~ 5.5 mm)
when a force of 98 N is applied to the
belt halfway between the compressor
and crankshaft pulleys. Adjustment of
the belt should be entrusted to a Hyundai
dealer.

pattern) on the aiming screen.
And then, draw the horizontal paral-
lel line at 1.18 in. (30 mm ) under the
horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillips
screwdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.

MENT
Before performing aiming adjustment,
make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground
and press the front bumper and rear
bumper down several times. Place
the vehicle at a distance of 118 in.
(3,000 mm) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,
engine oil and fuel, and spare tire,
jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn
on the headlight (low beam). WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away any
water drained out in this manner,
because the fuel mixed in the water
might be ignited and result in a fire.
1. Remove the engine cover.
2. Disconnect the air intake hose from air cleaner cover.
3. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom
of the fuel filter.
4. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
5. Check to be sure that the warning lamp illuminates when the ignition
key is turned to "ON", and that it
goes off when the engine is started.
If in doubt, consult your nearest au-
thorized HYUNDAI dealer.
