To Check the Oil Level
Before checking the oil, warm up the
engine to the normal operating tem- perature and be sure your car is parked on level ground. Turn the en- gine off. HXG094JG030D01A-GAT
Adding Oil
If the oil level is close to or below the
"L" mark, add oil until it reaches the"F" mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clock-
wise.

G030A02O-GAT CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL Engine oil is essential to the perfor-
mance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil level at least once a week in normal useand more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions.
Engine oil is essential to the perfor-
mance and service of the engine. It issuggested that you check the oil level at least once a week in normal useand more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions.
The engine oil quality should meet
the following classification.
API SJ, SL or ABOVE, ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE G030B01JM
NOTE:
o For good fuel economy, SAE 5W-20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 en-gine oil is preferred regardlessof regional option and engine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is not available, second- ary recommended engine oil forcorresponding temperature range can be used. Wait five minutes, then remove the
dipstick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw it again. Then note the highest level the oil has reached on the dipstick. It should bebetween the upper ("FULL") and lower ("LOW") range.

4. When the oil has stopped draining,
replace the drain plug using a new gasket and retighten by turning itclockwise. Oil pan drain plug tightening torque : 3.5 ~4.0 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counterclockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper size. A cer- tain amount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So besure to have your drain pan in place underneath it.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance with the instructions on the carton or on the filter itself. Do not over-tighten. Oil filter tightening torque : 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m Be sure that the mounting surface on the engine is clean and that theold gasket is removed completely. Lubricate the new gasket on the filter with clean engine oil beforeinstallation. 7. Remove the engine oil level dip-
stick.
8. Refill the crankcase with the rec- ommended engine oil. Refer tothe specification in chapter 9 forengine oil capacity.
G050A01A-AAT
CHECKING AND CHANGING THE ENGINE COOLANT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is under pressure and may eruptthrough the opening if the cap is removed. You could be seriously burned if you do not observe thisprecaution. Do not remove the ra- diator cap until the radiator is cool to the touch.

WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irrita- tion or cancer of the skin if left incontact with the skin for prolonged periods of time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warmwater as soon as possible after handling used oil.
CAUTION
Slowly pour the recommended oil
using by a tunnel. Do not overfill not to damage engine.
9. Start the engine and check to be sure no oil is leaking from the drain plug or oil filter.
10.Shut off the engine and recheck
the oil level.
NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil
in an environmentally acceptable manner. It is suggested that it be placed in a sealed container andtaken to a service station for recla- mation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put it in with the house-hold trash.

Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can
damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from a sealedcontainer. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain open any longer than required. This willprevent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake sys- tem and cause improper opera- tion.G130A01A-AAT
CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID To Check the Clutch Fluid
The clutch fluid level in the master
cylinder should be checked when performing other under hood services.The system should be checked for leakage at the same time.
Check to make certain that the clutch
fluid level is between the "MAX" and"MIN" level markings on the fluid res- ervoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indi-cates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and re- paired immediately. Consult yourHyundai dealer. G130A01L
!
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then unscrew the fluid reser-voir cap. Slowly pour the recom- mended fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the capon the reservoir and tighten.
G120C02A-AAT Recommended Brake Fluid Use only hydraulic brake fluid con- forming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifica- tions in your braking system. Follow the instructions printed on the con-tainer. G120D01A-AAT To Check the Fluid Level
HXG095
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 thereservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring it up to "MAX". Do not overfill.
