o Brake pads, calipers and rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs for run out and wear, and cali- pers for fluid leakage. F070K01A-AAT o Exhaust pipe and muffler Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for cracks, dete- rioration, or damage. Start the engineand listen carefully for any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections or replace parts as necessary. F070L01A-AAT
o Suspension mounting bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the specified torque.
F070M01B-AAT
o Steering gear box, linkage & boots/lower arm ball joint, upper arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine
off, check for excessive free-play in the steering wheel. Check the linkage for bends or dam-
age. Check the dust boots and ball joints for deterioration, cracks, or dam- age. Replace any damaged parts. F070N01A-AAT
o Power steering pump, belt and hoses
Check the power steering pump and
hoses for leakage and damage. Re- place any damaged or leaking parts immediately. Inspect the power steer-ing belt for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Replace or adjust it if neces-sary.

o Drive shafts and boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and
clamps for cracks, deterioration, ordamage. Replace any damaged partsand, if necessary, repack the grease.

Recommended Oil
1. Petrol Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE
viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature.Recommended viscosity is givenin the following illustration.
(2) A multi grade oil having a specifi- cation which meets A.P.I. specifi-cation of SG, SH or ABOVE isrecommended.DAILY OPERATING CHECKS
SG020B1-E The following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, whichever occurssooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer op-
eration.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mir- rors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily operating checks indicate that any item of equipment related to the safety or roadworthiness of the ve-hicle is not functioning correctly.ENGINE OIL
G030A01FC-EAT The correct engine oil level is of para-
mount importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result inirreparable damage being sustained by the engine. The engine oil level must be checked on a daily basis,whenever the vehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip, whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only
an approved grade and specificationof oil is used to avoid the possibility ofserious engine damage and prema- ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a false economy that must beavoided if the maximum reliability and useful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.

YG220A1-E POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections forfluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched- ule in Section 5. The power steeringhoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff- ing or worn spots. Deterioration of thehoses could cause premature failure. NOTE: The power steering pump may be noisy when the engine is first started 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 inspected by your Authorised Hyundai Dealer.
The power steering fluid level should
be checked regularly.
To check the power steering fluid level,
be sure the ignition is "OFF", thencheck to make certain that the powersteering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Do not check whilst the engine is
running. Do not start when power steering fluid reservoir is empty. Fluid Recommendation
Only automatic transmission fluid meeting the specification of PSF-3 orATF DEXRON 2 should be used in the power steering system.POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
