WARNING:
The transaxle lubricant level should only be checked when the engineis cold to prelude the possibility of personal injury by contact with hot components. NOTE: It is recommended that the manual transaxle lubricant should bechecked by Hyundai authorised re- pairer.
1. To check the transaxle lubricant level, the vehicle should be placed on level ground and the level plug removed with a suitable spanner.
2. If the level is correct, lubricant should begin to drip from the plug orifice. In this case the plug shouldbe replaced.If the level is incorrect, lubricantshould be added until it begins todrip from the plug orifice at which time the plug should be replaced. To Check the Transaxle Oil Level
Park the car on level ground with the
engine off.
1. Using a wrench of the correct size, loosen the oil filler bolt turning it counterclockwise and remove it with your fingers.
2. Use your finger to feel inside the
hole. The oil level should be at itsbottom 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 bolt and washer, screw it in with your fingers and then tightensecurely with the wrench.
AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE LUBRICANT
G110A01GK-EAT Transaxle lubricant should be changed
at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec-tion 5.
NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is red
color. As driving distance in- creases, the fluid color turns dark-ish red gradually. It is a normal condition and you should not judge the need to replace basedupon the changing color.

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 normal operating temperature and the en-gine idling.
Whilst the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selectorlever from "P" to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D" — and then return to "N" or "P". With the enginestill idling:
Recommended Lubricant
Use only Hyundai Genuine ATF SP- III, DIAMOND ATF SP-III, SK ATF SP-III or other brands approved byHyundai Motor Co., Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid is not covered by your new vehicle limited warranty.
Transaxle Fluid Capacity The fluid capacity of the automatic transaxle is 7.8 litres.
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be checked when the engine is at normal operating temperature. This means that the engine, radiator,exhaust system etc., are very hot so you should exercise great care not to burn yourself during thisprocedure. 1. Open the bonnet, being careful to
keep hands and clothing clear ofany moving parts.
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 thedipstick. It should be in the "HOT" range on the dipstick.

CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking system is essential to the safe operation of the vehicle and there- fore, any maintenance operationsother than those listed below should be entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer.
NOTE: Only lint free cloth should be used
for wiping the dipstick. The pres- ence of lint within the transaxle may cause problems with the nor- mal function of the transaxle.
3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use a funnel to add transaxle fluidthrough the dipstick tube until thelevel reaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill.
!WARNING:
The electric engine cooling fan
automatically switches on and off according to engine temperature. Be careful to keep away from thefan during this check as it may switch on at any time. SG120C2-E
Brake Fluid Recommendations

Recommended brake fluid conform-
ing to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should be used. The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid contamination fromforeign matter or moisture.
WARNING:
Brake fluid will cause rapid and
serious damage to paintwork. Ifaccidental spillage occurs, the af-fected area must be rinsed with water immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contactwith the eyes or to be ingested and ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of children. SG140A1-E
Condenser
Ensure that the condenser is periodi-cally inspected and that accumula- tions of dirt, dead insects and leaves etc, are removed to ensure that theefficiency of the system is not im- paired. Care must be exercised to ensure that the condenser fins arenot damaged during cleaning. AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
!
SG140C2-E
Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and run at idle for
several minutes with the refrigera- tion system running at the coldest setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air con-ditioning system inspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer.
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys-tem for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level maydamage the compressor.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic andshould never be stored in an un-sealed container. Do not allow petroleum base fluid to contami- nate the brake fluid since damageto the rubber seals of the system may result.

YG210A1-E
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Do not touch the radiator fan until it is completely stopped.As the coolant temperature de-creases the fan will automaticallyshut off. This is a normal condi- tion.
Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should auto- matically come on if the engine cool-ant temperature is high.
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan (in front of the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioneris in operation.
POWER STEERING HOSES
YG220A1-E It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hoses could cause premature failure. NOTE: The power steering pump may be noisy when the engine is firststarted in the extreme cold (-4°F). This noise is not abnormal and will stop as the engine warms up.If the power steering pump contin- ues to be noisy after the engine has warmed up, have it inspectedby your Hyundai authorised repairer.
