CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE OIL
(MANUAL)
FILLING THE WASHER RESERVOIRG090A01A-AATA good quality washer fluid should be used to fill
the washer reservoir. The fluid level should be
checked more frequently during inclement weath-
er or whenever the washer system is in more
frequent use.
The capacity of the washer reservoir is 3.2 U.S.
quarts (3.0 Liters).
CAUTION:
o Radiator anti-freeze (engine coolant)
should not be used in the washer system
because it will damage the car's finish.
o The washer should not be operated if the
washer reservoir is empty. This can dam-
age the washer fluid pump.

WARNING:
It is always better to check the transaxle oil
level when the engine is cool or cold. If the
engine is hot, you should exercise great
caution to avoid burning yourself on hot
engine or exhaust parts.G100B02A-AATTo check the Manual Transaxle Fluid

CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE
FLUID (AUTOMATIC)
!
G110A01E-AATTransaxle fluid in the automatic transaxle should
be checked at those intervals specified in the
vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.NOTE:Automatic transaxle fluid is basically a red
color. As driving distance increases, the fluid
color turns darkish red gradually. It is a
normal condition and you should not judge
the need to replace based upon the chang-
ing color.
You must replace the automatic transaxle
fluid in accordance with intervals specified
in the vehicle maintenance schedule in sec-
tion 5.
G110C02A-AATTransaxle Fluid CapacityThe fluid capacity of the automatic transaxle is
6.45 U.S. quarts (6.1 liters).
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be checked
when the engine is at normal operating tem-
perature. This means that the engine, radia-
tor, exhaust system etc., are very hot. Exer-
cise great care not to burn yourself during
this procedure. 1. Using a wrench of the correct size, loosen
the oil filler plug by turning it counterclock-
wise and remove it with your fingers.
2. Use your finger or suitable tool to feel inside
the hole. The oil level should be at its bottom
edge. If it is not, check for leaks before
adding oil. To refill the transaxle or bring the
oil level up, add oil slowly until it reaches the
proper level. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the plug and washer, screw it in with
your fingers and then tighten securely with
the wrench.
!
G110B05A-AATRecommended FluidYour Hyundai automatic transaxle is specially
designed to operate with HYUNDAI GENUINE
ATF SP III, DIAMOND ATF SP III, SK ATF SP
III or other brands meeting the SP III specifi-
cation approved by Hyundai Motor Co..
Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid is not
covered by your new vehicle limited warranty.
CAUTION:
Use of aftermarket ATF additives may
cause damage to the automatic transaxle.
Only use HYUNDAI GENUINE ATF SP III,
DIAMOND ATF SP III, SK ATF SP III or other
brands meeting the SP III specification
approved by Hyundai Motor Co.. If you are
having your vehicle serviced at a facility
other than a Hyundai dealer, verify that the
correct ATF is used for your vehicle.

CAUTION:
An open fuse indicates that there is a prob-
lem in the electrical circuit. If you replace a
fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory
is turned on, the problem is serious and
should be referred to a Hyundai dealer for
diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse
with anything except a fuse with the same or
a lower amperage rating. A higher capacity
fuse could cause damage and create a fire
hazard.

G200B01A-AATReplacing Accessory FusesThe fuse box for the lights and other electrical
accessories will be found low on the dashboard
on the driver's side. Inside the box you will find
a list showing the circuits protected by each
fuse.
If any of your car's lights or other electrical
accessories stop working, a blown (open) fuse
could be the reason. If the fuse has opened, you
will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has
melted through. If you suspect a blown fuse,
follow this procedure:
HLC4002
1. Turn off the ignition and all other switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse.
Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a
small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the
fuse box to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you
find one that appears to have opened.
HLC4003
4. Replace the blown fuse by pressing a new
fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse
should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse
clip repaired or replaced by a Hyundai deal-
er. If you do not have a spare fuse, you may
be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower
rating from an accessory you can tempo-
rarily get along without (the radio or cigarette
lighter, for example). Always remember to
replace the borrowed fuse.
NOTE:See page 6-32 for the fuse panel descrip-
tions.

I030A02JM-AATRECOMMENDED COLD TIRE INFLA-
TION PRESSURES
Tire label located on the driver's side
of the center pillar outer panel gives
the cold tire pressures recommended
for your vehicle with the original tire
size, the number of people that can be
in your vehicle and vehicle capacity
weight.
I030A01A-2
These pressures were chosen to pro-
vide the most satisfactory combina-
tion of ride comfort, tire wear and
stability under normal conditions. Tire
pressures should be checked at least
monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures
should be maintained for these rea-
sons:
I030A01LC-1
WARNING:
Severe underinflation (10 psi (70
kPa) or more) can lead to severe
heat buildup, causing blowouts,
tread separation and other tire fail-
ures that can result in the loss of
vehicle control leading to severe
injury or death. This risk is much
higher on hot days and when driv-
ing for protracted periods at high
speeds.

6. Maximum load rating
This number indicates the maxi-
mum load in kilograms and pounds
that can be carried by the tire. When
replacing the tires on the vehicle,
always use a tire that has the same
load rating as the factory installed
tire.
7. Uniform Tire Quality Grading
(UTQG):
Tire manufacturers are required to
grade tires based on three perfor-
mance factors: treadwear, traction
and temperature resistance. For
more information, see Uniform Tire
Quality Grading on page 8-13.

nal equipment tire size and recom-
mended inflation pressure
I040A01O-AATSNOW TIRES
If you equip your car with snow tires,
they should be the same size and
have the same load capacity as the
original tires. Snow tires should be
installed on all four wheels; otherwise,
poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa)
more air pressure than the pressure
recommended for the standard tires on
the tire label on the driver's side of the
center pillar , or up to the maximum
pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your car is equipped with
snow tires.
I040B01JM-AATALL SEASON TIRES
Hyundai specifies all season tires on
some models to provide good perfor-
mance for use all year round, including
snowy and icy road conditions. All sea-
son tires are identified by ALL SEA-
SON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on
the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better
snow traction than all season tires an
may be more appropriate in some ar-
eas.I040C01JM-AATSUMMER TIRES
Hyundai specifies summer tires on
some models to provide superior per-
formance on dry roads. Summer tire
performance is substantrally reduced in
snow and ice. Summer tires do not
have the tire traction rating M+S (Mud
and Snow) on the tire side wall. if you
plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or
icy conditions. Hyundai recommends
the use of snow tires or all season tires
on all four wheels.
