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
limited warranty.

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,
