Engine oil is essential to the performance and service of the engine. It is suggested that youcheck the oil level at least once a week innormal use and more often if you are on a tripor driving in severe conditions. SH, SG or SG/CD (API) multi-grade and fuel efficient oil is recommended. NOTE: SAE 5W-20 is not recommended for sus- tained high speed vehicle operation.

POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should bereplaced if there is severe surface cracking,scuffing or worn spots. Deterioration of thehose could cause premature failure. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi-tions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops dur-ing warm up, there is no abnormal functionin the system. It is due to a power steeringfluid characteristic in extremely cold condi-tions.
Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty. G300A01B-GAT
REMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER (DIESEL ENGINE)
If the fuel filter warning light illuminates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulatedin the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the wateras described below.

The power steering fluid level should be checked
regularly.
To check the power steering fluid level, be sure
the ignition is "OFF", then check to make cer- tain that the power steering fluid level is be-tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.

REPLACING HEADLIGHT BULBS Before attempting to replace a headlight bulb,
be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF" position.
The next paragraph shows how to reach the
headlight bulbs so they may be changed. Besure to replace the burned-out bulb with one ofthe same number and wattage rating.
CAUTION: Keep the lamps out of contact with petro-
leum products, such as oil, gasoline, etc.
1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the
fuel filter.
2. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
3. 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 isstarted. If in doubt, consult your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING: Be sure to carefully wipe away any water
drained out in this manner, because the fuelmixed in the water might be ignited andresult in a fire. 5. Push the bulb spring for removing the head-
light bulb.
6. Remove the protective cap from the replace- ment bulb and install the new bulb by match-ing the plastic base with the headlight hole.Install the dust cover after retightening thebulb spring and reconnect the power cord.
7. Use the protective cap and carton to dis- pose of the old bulb.
8. Check for proper headlight aim.
WARNING The halogen bulb contains gas under pres-
sure and if impacted could shatter, resulting in flying fragments. Always wear eye pro-tection when servicing the bulb. Protect thebulb against abrasions or scratches andagainst liquids when lighted. Turn on thebulb only when installed in a headlight. Re-place the headlight if damaged or cracked.Keep the bulb out of the reach of childrenand dispose of the used bulb with care.

HEADLIGHT BULB Replacement instructions:
G270A01FC
1. Allow the bulb to cool. Wear eye protection.
2. Always grasp the bulb by its plastic base, avoid touching the glass.
3. Disconnect the power cord from the bulb base in the back of the headlight.
4. Remove the dust cover.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS 7-1
7. EMISSION CON-TROL SYSTEMS
H010A01A-GAT
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS (If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission
control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibition rules of your province. There are three emission control systems which
are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system(3) Exhaust emission control system In order to assure the proper function of the
emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main-tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac-cordance with the maintenance schedule in thismanual. H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control System
The Exhaust Emission Control System is a
highly effective system which controls exhaustemissions while maintaining good vehicle per-formance.
H010C01E-GAT
2. Evaporative Emission Control
System
The Evaporative Emission Control System is
designed to prevent fuel vapors from escapinginto the atmosphere. Canister
While the engine is inoperative, fuel vapors
generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine isrunning, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canis-ter are drawn into the induction system through
the purge control solenoid valve.
Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV) The purge control solenoid valve is controlled
by the Engine Control Module (ECM); when theengine coolant temperature is low during idling,the PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel is nottaken into the engine. After the engine warms-up during ordinary driving, the PCSV opens soas to introduce evaporated fuel to the engine. H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation System is
employed to prevent air pollution caused byblow-by gases being emitted from the crank-case. This system supplies fresh filtered air tothe crankcase through the air intake hose.Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes withblow-by gases, then passes through the PCVvalve into the induction system.
The catalytic converter is part of the exhaust
emission control system. Its purpose is to re-move certain engine emission products fromthe engine's exhaust. It looks something like amuffler and is located underneath the car in the
exhaust system.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
1- 32 SB210S1-E BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATORThe front brake disc pads are fitted with an audible wear indicator which will cause a high pitched noise to be emitted when the remain- ing amount of friction lining is below the speci- fied value. When the wear indicator is heard, the brake pads should be replaced without delay to avoid damage occurring to the brake discs and a severe reduction in braking effi- ciency.
B260N02FC-EAT
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT
This light illuminates when there is a malfunc- tion of an exhaust gas related component, and the system is not functioning properly so that the exhaust gas regulation values are not satisfied. This light will illuminate when the ignition key is tuned to the "ON" position, and will go out after the engine start. If it illumi- nates while driving, or does not illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, take your car to your nearest autho- rized Hyundai dealer and have the system checked.
B260S01B-GAT DIESEL PRE-HEAT INDICATOR LIGHT(Diesel Engine)
The indicator light illuminates amber when the ignition switch is placed at the "ON" position. The engine can be started after the pre-heat indicator light goes off. The illuminating time varies with the water temperature, air tem- perature and battery condition. NOTE: If the engine were not started 10 seconds after the preheating is completed, turn the ignition key once more to the "LOCK" position, and then to the "ON" position, in order to preheat again.
B265A01B-GAT FUEL FILTER WARNING LIGHT (Diesel Engine)
This light illuminates when the ignition switch is set to the "ON" position and goes off after the engine has started. If it lights up while the engine is running, it indicates that water has accumulated inside the fuel filter. If this hap- pens, remove the water from the fuel filter.(Refer to "6-21 page")
B260C02E-EAT
TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR LIGHT(Not all models)
The traction control indicator changes opera- tion according to the ignition switch position and whether or not the system is in operation.It will also illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position, and then go off in a few seconds. If the TCS indicator stays on, take your car to your authorized Hyundai dealer and have the system checked. See section 2 for more information about the TCS system.
B270B02O-EAT PARKING START WARNING SOUND (Not all models) If the vehicle is driven at 6mph(10km/h) for more than 2~3 seconds, the warning chime will sound continuously when the parking brake engaged.
B900A01A-EAT ACOUSTIC WARNING SOUND (Not all models) The acoustic warning chime sounds when the tail lights are on and the door in driver side is open. This prevents the battery from dis- charging when the car is left with the tail lights on. The chime sounds until the tail lights are turned off.
