4DAILY 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.MAINTENANCE PRECAU- TIONS
G020D01TG-EAT Improper or incomplete service may
result in problems. This section gives instructions only for the maintenanceitems that are easy to perform.
Several procedures should be done by
Hyundai authorised repairer.
NOTE: Improper owner maintenance dur-
ing the warranty period may affect warranty coverage.

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 thecompressor and seals are lubricated. If this precaution is not observed the compressor seals may become stuckto the compressor shaft and dam- aged when the system is next used resulting in a loss of refrigerant anddamage to the compressor. HPG140B1-E
Compressor Drive Belt The air conditioning compressor drivebelt should be checked to ensurefreedom from damage or excessive wear and correct tension. The belt tension is correct when the belt de-flects by about 0.3 inches (8 mm) when a force of 98 N is applied to the belt halfway between the compressorand crankshaft pulleys. Adjustment of the belt should be entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer. NOTE: The compressor drive belt tension for diesel engine is adjusted auto- matically.

You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine run- ning, have your helper press down onthe brake pedal several times and then hold it down with a force of about 490 N (50 Kg, 110 lbs). The brakepedal clearance is the distance from the top surface of the brake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under the floormat.If the brake pedal clearance is notwithin the limits specified in the illus- tration, have it inspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer and ad-justed or repaired if necessary.

CHECKING ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
YG200A1-E
1. With the engine turned off, check the belts for cracks, fraying, or excessive wear. Replace the belt ifit is in poor condition.
2. With your thumb (with a force
approx. 10 kg) press on each beltmidway between the pulleys. Each belt should deflect no more than the amount shown in figure.

!
1. Loosen the adusting bolts just
enough so that the components can be moved.
2. Whilst pulling outward on the pry bar
or screwdriver, test the belt deflec-tion with your thumb.
3. After tightening the adjusting bolts, be sure to recheck the belt tension. Overtightening drive belts can cause excessive wear and failurein driven components and belts.
WARNING:
The drive belt should be checked when the engine is cool or cold to avoid burning yourself on hot en-gine. The fusible link prevents damage tothe wiring harness in the event of anelectrical system malfunction. Failure of a fusible link is indicative of a serious overload condition havingoccurred and therefore the electrical system should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before areplacement link is fitted.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should afusible link be replaced with any- thing other than a new link of the same rating. The use of higherrated links or other means of con- necting the circuit will create a potential fire hazard.
