CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING
FANS!
G220A01A-AAT G230A03A-AAT
G220B01A-AATChecking Engine Cooling FanThe engine cooling fan should come on auto-
matically if the engine coolant temperature is
high.
WARNING:
The radiator fan is controlled by engine cool-
ant temperature and may sometimes operate
even when the engine is not running. Use
extreme caution when working near the
blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not
injured by a rotating fan blade. As the cool-
ant temperature decreases the fan will auto-
matically shut off. This is a normal condition.G220C01A-AATChecking Condenser Cooling FanThe condenser cooling fan should come on
automatically whenever the air conditioner is in
operation.
HLC5006
The power steering fluid level should be checked
regularly. To check the power steering fluid
level, be sure the engine is "OFF", then check to
make certain that the power steering fluid level
is between 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 conditions (below
-4°F). If the noise stops during warm up,
there is no abnormal function in the system.
It is due to a power steering fluid character-
istic in extremely cold conditions.
If any electrolyte gets into your
eyes, flush your eyes with clean
water for at least 15 minutes and
get immediate medical attention.
If possible, continue to apply wa-
ter with a sponge or cloth until
medical attention is received.
If electrolyte gets on your skin,
thoroughly wash the contacted
area.
If you feel a pain or a burning
sensation, get medical attention
immediately.
Wear eye protection when charg-
ing or working near a battery.
Always provide ventilation when
working in an enclosed space.
o When lifting a plastic-cased battery, ex-
cessive pressure on the case may cause
battery acid to leak, resulting in personal
injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with
your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the battery when
the battery cables are connected.
o The electrical ignition system works with
high voltage.
Never touch these components with the
engine running or the ignition switched
on.

G240A01A-AATPOWER STEERING HOSESIt is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at those
intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance
schedule in Section 5.
The power steering hoses should be replaced if
there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-
ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hose
could cause premature failure.Recommended FluidUse PSF-3 type fluidNOTE:Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty.
HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
G250A01A-AATFOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT
YOUR HYUNDAIIf you desire additional information about main-
taining and servicing your Hyundai, you may
purchase a factory Shop Manual at your Hyundai
dealer's parts department. This is the same
manual used by dealership technicians and while
it is highly technical it can be useful in obtaining
a better understanding of your car and how it
works.
G290A04A-AATBefore performing aiming adjustment, make sure
of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press
the front bumper & rear bumper down sever-
al times. Place vehicle at a distance of 118
in. (3m) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for
full levels of coolant, engine oil and fuel, and
spare tire, jack, and tools). Have the driver or
equivalent weight placed in driver's seat.
4. Clean the headlight lenses and turn on the
headlights (Low beam).
5. Open the hood.
