G030A01A-AAT CHECKING THE ENGINE OILEngine oil is essential to the performance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil level at least once a week in normal use and more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions. G030B03HP-GAT Recommended Oil 1. Gasoline Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric tem- perature. Recommended viscosity is given in the fol- lowing illustration.

To Check the Coolant Level
G050C01HP
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a 50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Additional corrosion inhibitors or additives should not be used. The cooling system must be main- tained with the correct concentration and type of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro-

Diesel (2.9 CRDi) sion. Never allow the concentration of anti- freeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level, otherwise damage to the cooling system may result. For proper concentration when adding or replacing the engine coolant, refer to the following table.
8. Start the engine and check to be sure no oil
is leaking from the drain plug or oil filter.
9. Shut off the engine and recheck the oil level. NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil in anenvironmentally acceptable manner. It is sug- gested that it be placed in a sealed container and taken to a service station for reclama- tion. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put it into the household trash. WARNING: Used motor oil may cause irritation or can- cer of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods of time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm wa- ter as soon as possible after handling used oil. G050A01A-AAT CHECKING AND CHANGING THE EN- GINE 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 erupt through the opening if the cap is removed. You could be seriously burned if you do not observe this precaution. Do not remove the radiator cap until the radiator is cool to touch.

6-14 G130A01A-AAT CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID To Check the Clutch Fluid
G130A01HP
The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when performing other un- der hood services. The system should be checked for leakage at the same time. Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is always between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer.
G120E02A-AAT 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 sealed container. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain open any longer than required. This will prevent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake sys- tem and cause improper operation.
G120E01HP
G120D01A-AAT To Check the Fluid LevelThe fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring it up to "MAX". Do not overfill.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then
unscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour therecommended fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser- voir and tighten.
G120A01A-AAT CHECKING THE BRAKESCAUTION: Because brakes are essential to the safe operation of the car, it is suggested that they be checked and inspected by your Hyundai dealer. The brakes should be checked and inspected for wear at those intervals specified in the vehicle mainte- nance schedule in Section 5. G120B02A-AAT Checking the Brake Fluid Level WARNING: Use caution when handling brake fluid. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. It will also damage your vehicle’s paint if spilled on it and not removed immediately. G120C02A-AAT Recommended Brake FluidUse only hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications in your braking system. Follow the instructions printed on the container.
