AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID The automatic transaxle fluid level should be checked and changed at those intervals prescribed in the main- tenance schedule. It is of paramountimportance that only the specified fluid is used when replenishing or changing the fluid. The use of other fluids mayirreparably damage the transaxle and invalidate the manufacturers warranty. In addition the ingress of dirt or lintmay prevent correct functioning of the transaxle and care must be exercised to prevent the ingress of such matter. NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is a red in color. As driving distance increases, the fluid color turns darkish red gradually. It is a normal conditionand you should not judge the need to replace based upon the changing color.You must replace the automatictransaxle fluid in accordance withintervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in section 5. CAUTION:
The transaxle on fluid level must be
checked with the engine running and at normal operating tempera-ture and therefore care must be ex- ercised to prevent injury occurring through contact with rotating or hotparts of the engine.

WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will au- tomatically shut off. This is a nor-mal condition. WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. Highpressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the enginestopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it contacts the body.
People using pacemakers should
ensure that they keep a distance of30cm from the ECU or wiring har- ness within the engine room whilst engine is running, since the highcurrents in the Common Rail sys- tem produce considerable magnetic fields. SG120A1-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 yourHyundai authorised repairer.
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys- tem with a low refrigerant level may damage the compressor.
! SG140D1-E
Off Season Maintenance
The air conditioning must be run for
ten minutes or so weekly during peri- ods when the system would not nor- mally be used to ensure that the com-pressor and seals are lubricated. If this precaution is not observed the compressor seals may become stuckto the compressor shaft and damaged when the system is next used result- ing in a loss of refrigerant and damageto the compressor.
SG140B1-E
Compressor Drive Belt The air conditioning compressor drive belt should be checked to ensure free- dom from damage or excessive wearand correct tension. The belt tension is correct when the belt deflects by about 0.3 inches (8 mm) when a forceof 98 N is applied to the belt halfway between the compressor and crank- shaft pulleys. Adjustment of the belt should be en- trusted to a Hyundai authorised re- pairer. CRANK PULLEY

CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES
SG200A1-E
Fusible Links
The fusible link prevents damage to the wiring harness in the event of anelectrical system malfunction. Failure of a fusiblelink is indicative of a seri- ous overload condition having occurredand therefore the electrical system should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before a replace-ment link is fitted. G200B01E-EAT Individual Circuit Fuses The fuse box containing the individual circuit fuses will be found in the back- side of multi box located in the rightside of driver. The multi box is re- moved by pulling lightly and then re- leasing the lid. A fuse rating grid will befound on the reverse side of the cover. In the event of fuse failure, the fuse should be replaced with one of equiva-lent rating. A fuse removal tool is provided within the fuse box to facili- tate replacement.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should a
fusible link be replaced with any-thing other than a new link of thesame rating. The use of higher rated links or other means of connecting the circuit will create a potential firehazard.

WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled byengine coolant temperature and maysometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant tem-perature decreases, the fan will au- tomatically shut off. This is a nor- mal condition. The engine cooling fan should operate before the temperature gauge reaches the upper portion of the scale and thecondenser fan should operate when- ever the air conditioning is in use.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when theengine 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 condition.

POWER STEERING HOSES
Power steering hoses should be
checked for damage, deterioration and leakage at each service. 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 power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in ex-tremely cold condition (below -4°F). If the noise stops dur- ing warm up, there is no abnormalfunction in the system. This is due to a power steering fluid character- istic in extremely cold conditions. FLUID RECOMMENDATION
Only automatic transmission fluid
meeting the specification of PSF-3 or Dexron 2 should be used in the power steering system.
7EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
2EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
SH010A1-E
(Not all models)
Depending upon the market for which
the vehicle is destined, the emission control system will comprise one or more of the following emission control devices.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys-
tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys- tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order that the proper functioning of
the emission control systems may be ensured, it is recommended that the vehicle is inspected and maintained by an Hyundai authorised repairer inaccordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual. SH010B1-E
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gasesbeing emitted from the crankcase by introducing fresh air to the crankcase through the air cleaner where this mixeswith blow-by gases and then passes through the PCV valve into the intake manifold from where it subsequentlyenters the combustion chamber and is burned.
SH010C1-E
2. Evaporative Emission Control
System
The Evaporative Emission Control Sys-
tem is designed to prevent fuel vapours from escaping into the atmosphere through the fuel tank ventilation sys- tem. Whilst the engine is not running, fuel
vapours generated inside the fuel tankare absorbed and stored in a charcoal canister. When the engine is started, the vapours
stored in the canister are drawn intothe induction system through the purge control solenoid valve and are subse-quently burned. The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the ECU; when the en- gine coolant temperature is low or the engine is idling, the purge control valveis closed and fuel vapours remain stored in the canister. Under normal running conditions when the engine iswarm, the valve opens and the vapours are drawn into the inlet tract and sub- sequently burned in the combustionchamber.
SH010D1-E
3. Exhaust Emission Con Trol
System
The exhaust emission control system
is a highly effective system whichcontrols exhaust emission whilst main-taining good vehicle performance.
