SG130B2-E Adding Fluid Recommended brake fluid conform- ing to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should be used. The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid contamination fromforeign matter or moisture.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic andshould never be stored in an un- sealed container. Do not allow petroleum base fluid to contami- nate the brake fluid since damage to the rubber seals of the systemmay result. WARNING:
Brake fluid will cause rapid and
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 ingestedand ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of chil- dren. SG140C2-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 for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level may damage the compressor.

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.

DG200B1-E INDIVIDUAL CIRCUIT FUSES The fuse box containing the individual circuit fuses is located on the lowerportion of the dashboard adjacent to the bonnet release. The fuse box cover is removed by pushing lightlyand then releasing the lid. A fuse rating grid will be found on the re- verse side of the cover. In the eventof fuse failure, the fuse should be replaced with one of equivalent rat- ing. A fuse removal tool is providedwithin the fuse box to facilitate re- placement. In the event of a replacement fuse
failing shortly after installation a mal-function within the circuit protected by that fuse is indicated. The circuitshould be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer at the first avail- able opportunity. WARNING:
The use of replacement fuses hav-ing a higher rating than specifiedor other means of connecting the circuit will create a potential fire hazard. NOTE: See page 6-36 for the fuse panel descriptions.

If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burn- ing sensation, get medical attention immediately. Wear eye protection when charging or working near a battery. Always provide ventilation when working in an en- closed space.
o When lifting a plastic-cased bat- tery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid toleak, resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the bat- tery when the battery cables areconnected.
o The electrical ignition system works with high voltage.Never touch these componentswith the engine running or theignition switched on.o If battery electrolyte is spilled onto skin or into eyes, the effected area must be flushed with copious amounts of water and medical as- sistance sought.
o If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious amounts of water or milkfollowed by an antacid (raw egg ormilk of magnesia) must be drunk. Vomiting should not be induced and medical assistance must besought.
o Batteries must only be charged in well ventilated areas from which naked lights or sources of sparks are excluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other unauthorised persons are kept awayfrom batteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the
positive (+) and negative (-) termi-nals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery.
The battery fitted during production isof the "Maintenance Free" type.
!WARNING: Always read the following instructions carefully whenhandling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes and all other flames or sparks away from the battery. Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode if ignited. Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly cor- rosive SULPHURIC ACID.Do not allow battery acid to contact your skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish.If any electrolyte gets intoyour eyes, flush your eyeswith clean water for at least 15 minutes and get imme- diate medical attention. Ifpossible, continue to apply water with a sponge or cloth until medical atten-tion is received.

The power steering fluid level should be checked regularly. To check the power steering fluid level, be sure the ignition is "OFF", then check 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 the engine 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

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Do not touchthe radiator fan until it is completely stopped and the battery has been disconnected. As the coolant temperature de-
creases the fan will automaticallyshut off. This is a normal condi- tion.
Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should auto- matically come on if the engine cool- ant temperature is high.
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan (in front of the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioner is in operation.

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 Hyundai authorised repairer.
NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should be removed by a Hyundai authorised repairer.
WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away anywater drained out in this manner, because the fuel mixed in the water might be ignited and resultin a fire. Before attempting to replace a head-
light bulb, be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF" position.
The next paragraph shows how to
reach the headlight bulbs so they may be changed. Be sure to replacethe burned-out bulb with one of the same number and wattage rating.
Ensure that the replacement bulb has
the same cap configuration and watt-age as the original.
See page 6-35 for the wattage descrip-
tions.
CAUTION:
Keep the lamps out of contact with
petroleum products, such as oil, petrol, etc.
