Brake Fluid Level
HFC5005
Petrol engine
G120D02FC
Diesel engine WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an un- sealed container. The presence ofwater in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possibility of brake fade alongwith promoting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continued safe operation of the sys- tem. Brake fluid will cause rapidand serious damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the af- fected area must be rinsed withwater immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyes or to be ingested andensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of children.
The fluid level in the brake fluid reser-voir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of thereservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having carefully cleaned the area sur-rounding the reservoir cap to ensure that dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be noted that thebrake fluid level will decrease slightly as the friction linings of the pads and shoes become worn and that this is anormal condition.

CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
The system should be checked for leakage at the same time.Ensure that the clutch fluid level is
always between the "MAX" and "MIN"level markings on the fluid reservoir.Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immediately.

To Check the Clutch Fluid
Petol engine
Diesel engine HFC5005
G120D02FC
The clutch fluid level in the mastercylinder should be checked when per- forming other under bonnet checks. SG130B2-E
Adding Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming
to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should be used.The reservoir cap must be fully tight- ened to avoid contamination from for-eign matter or moisture.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and
should never be stored in an un-sealed container. Do not allow pe-troleum base fluid to contaminate the brake fluid since damage to the rubber seals of the system may re-sult.
! WARNING:
Brake fluid will cause rapid and
serious damage to paintwork. If ac- cidental spillage occurs, the affectedarea must be rinsed with water im- mediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyesor to be ingested and ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of children.

Diesel Engine
At the scheduled maintenance inspec- tion, belts should be examined forcracks, wear, fraying or other evi- dence of deterioration and replaced if necessary. Belt routing should also be checked to be sure there is no interference be- tween the belts and other parts of theengine.
SG190A1-E
Petrol Engine
The various engine drive belts must be
checked for condition, tension and free- dom from damage and excessive wear. The tension of a new belt must be checked after thirty minutes runningfollowing fitment of the new belt to allow for the initial belt stretch. CHECKING DRIVE BELTS

CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL CLEARANCE
45.1 mm (1.78 in.)G180A01L
You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine run-ning, have your helper press down on the brake pedal several times and then hold it down with a force of about 490N(50 kg, 110 lbs). The brake pedal clearance is the distance from the top surface of the brake pedal to the as-phalt sheeting under the floor mat. If the brake pedal clearance is not within the limits specified in the illustration,have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if nec- essary.

The power steering fluid level should
be checked daily. SG230B1-E
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.

2. Pump the hand pump until there are
no more bubbles in the fuel coming out of the air pipe. When doing this, place a cloth around the air pipe to prevent the escaping fuel from spew-ing about.
3. Replace the air cap when there are no more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump becomes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there
is no leakage of fuel. If in doubt, consult your nearest Hyundai authorised repairer. G350B01FC

!WARNING:
o Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle whilst bleeding the fuel system.
o Be sure to carefully wipe away
any water drained out in thismanner, because the fuel mixed in the water might be ignited and result in a fire.

4EGR SYSTEM
Due to the fragile nature of the catalyst element, it is important that damagedoes not occur when the vehicle is raised by means of a garage jack. Care must also be exercised to avoiddriving over road hazards or debris which may cause damage to the cata- lyst element. H020D01S-GAT ; For a diesel engine All Hyundai vehicles are equipped with oxidation type catalytic converter toreduce the carbon monoxide, hydro- carbons and particulate contained in the exhaust gas. H020C01S-GAT
; For a diesel engine
This system helps control oxides of
nitrogen by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas into the engine.
