(FOR DIESEL ENGINE (2.5 TCI))
E090A01HP
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as described in the illustration if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a long time.
G240A01A-AAT POWER STEERING HOSESIt is suggested that you check the power steer- ing hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hose could cause premature failure.
NOTE: Do not start the engine when the powersteering oil reservoir is empty.
2. Pump the hand pump until there are no more
bubbles in the fuel coming out of the air plug. When doing this, place a cloth around the air plug to prevent the escaping fuel from spew- ing about.
3. Tighten the air bleed bolt when there are no more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump be- comes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there is no leakage of fuel.If in doubt, consult your nearest authorizedHYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING:
(1) Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel system.

1. Loosen the air bleed bolt at the top of the fuel
filter with a flat-bladed screwdriver or equiva- lent.
The power steering fluid level should be checked daily. To check the power steering fluid level, be surethe ignition is "OFF", then check to make cer- tain that the power steering fluid level is be- tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. 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 function in the system. If is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold condi- tions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid.

BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
(FOR DIESEL ENGINE (2.9 CRDi))
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as described in the illustration if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a long time.
1. Pump the hand prime pump with your hand for one minute(about 20~30 times).
2. Turn the ignition key to the "START" posi- tion and release it 2~3 times shortly until the engine starts.
CAUTION:Do not hold the ignition key in the "START"position for more than 15 seconds. Doing so may cause the engine and the injection pump to damage.

2. Operate the hand pump slowly 6 or 7 times in order to force the water out through the drain plug.
3. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
4. Loosen the air bleed bolt and bleed the air. (Refer to "Bleeding the fuel system")
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 nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING:
(1) Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle while bleeding thefuel system.
(2) Be sure to carefully wipe away any water drained out in this manner, because thefuel mixed in the water might be ignited and result in a fire.
G300A01HP-GATREMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER (FOR DIESEL ENGINE (2.5 TCI))
E100A01HP
If the fuel filter warning lamp illuminates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as described below.
1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the fuel filter.
(2) Be sure to carefully clean away any fuel
which spilled onto nearby parts coming out of the air bleed bolt, because such
accumulations of fuel might ignite andcause a fire.

OWNER MAINTENANCE 6-19
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.

POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at thoseintervals specified in the vehicle maintenanceschedule in Section 5. The power steering hosesshould be replaced if there are severe surfacecracking, pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Dete-rioration of the hoses could cause prematurefailure.
NOTE: The power steering pump may be noisy
when the engine is first started in the ex- treme cold (-4°F). This noise is not abnormaland will stop as the engine warms up. If thepower steering pump continues to be noisyafter the engine has warmed up, have itinspected by your Authorized HyundaiDealer. G230A03A-EAT POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

NOTE: Do not check whilst the engine is running.
Do not start when power steering fluid res- ervoir is empty. Fluid Recommendation
Only automatic transmission fluid meeting the
specification of PSF-3 or ATF DEXRON 2 should be used in the power steering system.
