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 nearestauthorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should beremoved by an authorized Hyundai dealer. G300B01FC
WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away anywater drained out in this manner, because the fuel mixed in the watermight be ignited and result in a fire.

5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the center of each headlight beam pat-tern) and the horizontal line (throughthe center of each headlight beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw the horizontal paral- lel line at 30 mm (1.18 in.) under the horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillipsscrewdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low
beam to each vertical line with aphillips screwdriver - HORIZONTAL AIMING. HTB269
Horizontal Aiming
Vertical Aiming
G290A01FC-GAT HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUST- 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 3,000 mm (118 in.) 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).

SB215B1-E
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERA-
TURE GAUGE
The engine coolant temperature gauge
indicates the engine coolant tempera-
ture and will, under normal circum-
stances, give an indication in the "Nor-
mal" or centre portion of the scale.
Should the indication move into the
upper or "Hot" portion of the scale,
engine overheating is indicated. Under
these circumstances, the vehicle should
be brought to rest as soon as is safe to
do so and the engine turned off. Once
the engine has cooled somewhat, the
coolant level and the condition of the
generator/water pump drive belt should
be checked. If the cause of the over- SB215C1-E
SPEEDOMETER
HTB007A
heating cannot be readily established,
the assistance of a Hyundai dealer
should be sought.
HTB004A
The speedometer indicates the vehicle
speed in both miles and kilometres per
hour.
WARNING:
The engine cooling system is pres-
surized and removal of the radiator
cap when the engine is hot may
cause hot water and steam to be
ejected from the radiator resulting in
burns and scalding. The radiator cap
must only be removed when the en-
gine has cooled. Do not add cold
water to a hot engine to avoid the
possibility of engine damage. The
use of plain water in the cooling
system is not recommended since
the aluminium components of the
cooling system require the use of a
corrosion inhibitor found in the rec-
ommended Ethylene Glycol type anti
freeze solutions.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY 3- 5
!
D040A01TB-EAT
TEMPORARY SPARE TYRE
(Not all models)
The following instructions for the tem-
porary spare tyre should be observed:
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as
practical after installing the spare
tyre, and adjust to the specified
pressure. The tyre pressure should
be periodically checked and main-
tained at the specified pressure
while the tyre is stored.
6. If the cause of the overheating can- not be found, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to nor-
mal. Then, if coolant has been lost,
carefully remove the radiator cap
and add water to bring the fluid level
in the reservoir up to the base of the
radiator fill opening. Fill the coolant
expansion tank to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is es-
tablished that the engine is operat-
ing normally. If the engine over-
heats repeatedly, the advice of a
Hyundai dealer should be sought. WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot since steam and
boiling water may be ejected from
the radiator resulting in burns or
scalding.
Inflation Pressure
Tyre Size
T105/70D14
420 kPa (60 psi)
2. The spare tyre should only be used temporarily and should be returned
to the luggage compartment as soon
as the original tyre can be repaired
or replaced.
3. Continuous use at speeds of over 50 mph(80 km/h) is not recom-
mended.
4. As the temporary spare tyre is spe- cifically designed for your car, it
should not be used on any other
vehicle.
Spare Tyre Pressure
YD050A1-E
SPARE TYRE
For Full Size (Not all models)
The following instructions for the FULL
SIZE spare tyre should be observed:
Check inflation pressure as soon as
possible after installing the spare tyre,
and adjust to the specified pressure.
The tyre pressure should be periodi-
cally checked and maintained at the
specified pressure while the tyre is
stored.

5. If the water pump drive belt is bro-
ken or coolant is leaking out, stop
the engine immediately and call the
nearest Hyundai dealer for assis-
tance.
! CAUTION:
Serious loss of coolant indicates
there is a leak in the cooling system
and this should be checked as soon
as possible by a Hyundai dealer.

5- 8 VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
6ZF070C1-A
o Engine coolant
The coolant should be changed at the intervals specified in the mainte-nance schedule.
6ZF060H1-A
o Air cleaner filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is
recommended when filter is replaced.
6ZF060J1-A
o Spark plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range. 6ZF070B1-A
o Cooling system
Check the cooling system part, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections for leakage and dam- age. Replace any damaged parts.
6ZF070D1-A
o Manual transaxle oil
Inspect the manual transaxle oil ac-
cording to the maintenance schedule. NOTE:
If the oil level is low, check for
possible leaks before adding oil. Do not overfill.
6ZF060G1-A o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap The vapour hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. Make sure that a new vapourhose or fuel filler cap is correctly re- placed. 6ZF060F1-A
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi- dence of heat and/or mechanical dam-age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessive swelling indicate deterioration. Par-ticular attention should be paid to ex- amining those hose surfaces nearest to high heat sources, such as theexhaust manifold.Inspect the hose routing to assurethat the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source, sharp edges or moving component which might causeheat damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make surethey are secure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immediately if there is any evidence of deterioration or damage.
F060N01X-GAT
o Valve clearances (1.1 L)
Incorrect valve clearance will not only
result in unsteady engine operation,but will also cause excessive noiseand reduced engine performance. In- spect valve clearance and adjust as required while the engine is hot.
Valve-to-rocker arm clearance Intake valves ..... 0.2 mm (0.008 in.) Exhaust valves ... 0.25 mm (0.010 in.)
