ENGINE COOLANT CHECKING
AND REPLACING
SG050B1-E
Coolant recommendations WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot, since the system is
pressurized and coolant may be
ejected from the radiator resulting in
scalding.
3. Prepare a suitable receptacle to col-
lect the displaced oil and remove the
drain plug from the sump.
4. When the oil has drained from the sump, replace the drain plug using a
new washer ensuring that the plug is
not over tightened.
Tightening torque is: 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by rotating coun- terclockwise, using a proprietary oil
filter removal tool if necessary. Note
that the oil filter will contain approxi-
mately 0.5 litres of oil and this should
be collected in a suitable receptacle.
6. Install a new oil filter having smeared the sealing ring with clean oil and
rotating clockwise until the filter con-
tacts the mounting and then a further
one half turn. Do not over-tighten CAUTION:
The oil being drained from the en-
gine will be hot. Care should be
exercised to prevent scalding.
! Tightening torque:
Petrol -
1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m
Diesel(RHD) - 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m
7. Pour the specified quantity of the recommended oil into the engine and
replace the filler cap. Start the en-
gine and ensure that no oil leaks
exist. Turn off the engine and after a
couple minutes, recheck the oil level.
WARNING:
Prolonged and repeated contact with
used engine oils may result in seri-
ous skin disorders including derma-
titis and cancer. Avoid contact with
skin as far as possible and always
wash thoroughly after any contact.
Keep used oils out of reach of chil-
dren. It is illegal to pollute drains,
water courses and soil. Use only
authorized waste collection facili-
ties including civic amenity sites
and garages for the disposal of used
oil and oil filters. If in doubt, contact
the local authority for disposal in-
structions.

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.

WINDSCREEN WASHER RES-
ERVOIR REPLENISHMENT
The level of windscreen washer fluid
available should be checked on a daily
basis. The level of fluid will be visible
through the side of the reservoir. When
the fluid is to be replenished, only a
proprietary screen wash additive should
be used and in the concentration rec-
ommended by the manufacturer. The
windscreen washer reservoir has a total
capacity of 3 litres. CAUTION:
Engine coolant anti freeze must not
be used in the windscreen washer
system since damage to the
paintwork may result.
Undiluted windscreen washer addi-
tive must not be allowed to come
into contact with the paintwork. If
spillage occurs, flush the affected
area immediately with water. Do not
operate the windscreen washer for
more than 15 seconds continuously
or when the reservoir is empty since
damage to the washer pump will
result.

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
