To Check the Coolant Level
The coolant level can be seen on the
side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant should be between the "L" and "F" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cool. Ifthe level is below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "L" and "F". If the level is low, inspectfor coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for aninspection and diagnosis of the rea- son. G050D02A-AAT
To Change the Engine Coolant
The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve-hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the finish of your car. If you spill en- gine coolant on the car, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.
!
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and remove the radiator cap when cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow all the engine cool-ant to drain from the cooling sys- tem, then securely close the drain cock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car.Then, following the manufacturer'sdirections on the engine coolant container, add the appropriate quantity of engine coolant to theradiator. 4. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it,until it stops. This relieves any pres- sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator capby pushing down and turning coun- terclockwise. Now fill the radiator with clean dem- ineralized or distilled water. Con- tinue to add clean demineralized ordistilled water in small quantities until the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck.

12CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER FILTER
G070A01E-AAT To change the filter, unsnap the clips around the cover. When this is done, the cover can be lifted off, the oldfilter removed and the new filter put in its place. Genuine Hyundai Replace- ment Parts are recommended.
HGK5010G050D04E
!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the coolant fanso that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, thefan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
5. Start the engine, top off the radia-
tor with water and then add engine coolant to the reservoir until the level is between "L" and "F".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and check to be sure thedrain cocks are fully closed and not leaking.

!
CAUTION:
o Radiator antifreeze (engine cool- ant) should not be used in the washer system because it will damage the car's finish.
o The washer should not be oper- ated if the washer reservoir is empty. This can damage the washer fluid pump.
o In areas where water freezes in winter, use windshield washerantifreeze.!
WARNING:
o Windshield washer fluid agents contain some amounts of alco- hol and can be flammable under certain circumstances. Do notallow sparks or flame to contact the washer fluid or the washer fluid reservoir. Damage to thevehicle or its occupants could occur.

To Check the Transaxle Fluid Level
Park the car on level ground with the parking brake engaged. When the transaxle fluid level is checked, the transaxle fluid should be at normaloperating temperature and the en- gine idling. 1. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.

Transaxle Fluid Capacity
The fluid capacity of the automatic transaxle is 7.8 liters (8.2 U.S. quarts).
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be checked when the engine is at normal operating temperature. Thismeans that the engine, radiator, radiator hose, exhaust system etc., are very hot. Exercise great carenot to burn yourself during this procedure. 2.7L
While the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selectorlever from "P" to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D" — and thenreturn to "N" or "P". With the engine still idling: 2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe
it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far as it will go, then remove it again. Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the "HOT"range on the dipstick.
3. If the transaxle fluid level is low,
use a funnel to add transaxle fluid through the dipstick tube until the level reaches the "HOT" range. Donot overfill.
G110B04A-AAT
Recommended Fluid
Your Hyundai automatic transaxle isspecially designed to operate with Hyundai Genuine ATF SP-III, DIA- MOND ATF SP-III, SK ATF SP-III orother brands approved by Hyundai Motor Co., Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid is not covered byyour new vehicle limited warranty.

The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid con-tamination from foreign matter or moisture. NOTE: Do not allow any other liquids to contaminate the brake fluid. Sealdamage will result.
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brakefluid. It can damage your vision ifyou get it in your eyes. It will also damage your vehicle's paint if spilled on it and not removed im-mediately. G140A01A-AAT
Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and
engine radiator) should be checked periodically for accumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. These caninterfere with maximum cooling effi- ciency. When removing such accu- mulations, brush or hose them awaycarefully to avoid bending the cooling fans. AIR CONDITIONING CARE
G140B01A-AAT
Checking the Air Conditioning Operation

!
!WARNING:
Whilst the engine is running, keep hands and clothing away from mov- ing parts such as the fan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the near- est Hyundai authorised repairer forassistance.
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot since steam and boiling water may be ejected fromthe radiator resulting in burns or scalding.
!
6. If the cause of the overheating can- not be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has been lost, care- fully add coolant to the reservoir(page 6-11) to bring the fluid level in the reservoir up to the base of the radiator fill opening. Fill the coolantexpansion tank to the halfway mark. To ensure the correct water to cool- ant mix is obtained after top up,testing by an authorised repairer is required.
7. Proceed with caution until it is estab- lished that the engine is operatingnormally. If the engine overheats repeatedly, the advice of a Hyundaiauthorised repairer should be sought.
CAUTION:
Serious loss of coolant indicates there is a leak in the cooling system and this should be checked as soonas possible by a Hyundai authorised repairer.D040A01GK-EAT TEMPORARY SPARE TYRE The following instructions for the tem- porary spare tyre should be observed:
