POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the
power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be re-placed if there is severe surface crack- ing, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora- tion of the hose could cause prema-ture failure.
To check the power steering fluid level,
be sure the ignition is "OFF", thencheck to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from the power
steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is startedin extremely cold conditions (be- low - 20°C). In this case, if the noise stops during warm up, thereis no abnormal function in the sys- tem. This is due to a power steer- ing fluid characteristic in extremelycold conditions. Recommended Fluid:
Use PSF-3 type fluidNOTE: Do not start the engine when the
power steering oil reservoir is empty. If the fuel filter warning lamp illumi-
nates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as described.

36HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
G290A02E-GAT Before 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 and rear bumper down several times.(Place the vehicle at a distance of 3,000 mm (118 in.) 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'sseat.
4. Clean the head lights lenses and
turn on the headlights (low beam).
!WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away any water drained out in this manner, because the fuel mixed in the wa-ter might be ignited and result in a fire.
G300B01A
1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the fuel filter.
2. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
3. Check to be sure that the warning lamp illuminates when the ignition key is turned to "ON", and that it goes off when the engine is started. If in doubt, consult your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTE: It is recommended that water ac- cumulated in the fuel filter shouldbe removed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

7EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
2EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010A01A-GAT
(If installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibi- tion rules of your province.
There are three emission control sys-
tems which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys- tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys- tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your carinspected and maintained by an au- thorized Hyundai dealer in accordance with the maintenance schedule in thismanual. H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent airpollution caused by blow-by gasesbeing emitted from the crankcase. This system supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air in-take hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, then passes through the PCV valveinto the induction system.
H010C02E-GAT
2. Evaporative Emission
Control System
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmo- sphere. Canister
While the engine is inoperative, fuel
vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canis-ter. When the engine is running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the Engine Control Mod- ule (ECM); when the engine coolant temperature is low during idling, thePCSV closes so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine. After the engine warms-up during ordinary driv-ing, the PCSV opens so as to intro- duce evaporated fuel to the engine.
H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
The Exhaust Emission Control Sys-
tem is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining good vehicle performance.
