F070E03HP-GAT
o Automatic Transmission Fluid
The fluid level should be in the "HOT" range of the dipstick, after the engine and transmission are at normal operat- ing temperature. Check the automatictransmission fluid level with the engine running and the transmission in neu- tral, with the parking brake properlyapplied. Use MOBIL DEXRON-II when adding or changing fluid.
F070D01A-AAT
o Manual Transmission Oil
Inspect the manual transmission oil according to the maintenance sched- ule.
NOTE: If the oil level is low, check for possible leaks before adding oil. Donot overfill. F070F01A-AAT
o Brake Hoses and Lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any leakage. Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts immediately.
F070G02A-AAT
o Brake Fluid
Check brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should bebetween "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. Use only hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or DOT 4.
F070H01A-AAT
o Rear Brake Drums/ Linings
Parking Brake
Check the rear brake drums and lin-
ings for scoring, burning, leaking fluid,broken parts, and excessive wear. In-spect the parking brake system in- cluding the parking brake lever and cables. For detailed service proce-dures, refer to the Shop Manual. F070J01A-AAT
o Brake Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs for run out and wear, and cali- pers for fluid leakage. F070K01A-AAT o Exhaust Pipe and Muffler Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for cracks, dete- rioration, or damage. Start the engine and listen carefully for any exhaustgas leakage. Tighten connections or replace parts as necessary. F070L01A-AAT o Suspension Mounting Bolts Check the suspension connections for looseness or damage. Retighten to the specified torque.

To Check the Coolant Level
The coolant level can be seen on the
side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL" lines on the reservoir when the engine iscool. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "LOW" and "FULL". If thelevel is low, inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit yourHyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis of the reason. G050D02HP-GAT To Change the Engine Coolant The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill enginecoolant on the car, wash it off thor- oughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and remove the radia- tor cap when cool.
G050B01A-DAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol cool- ant in a 50/50 mix with water. Theengine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Addi- tional corrosion inhibitors or additivesshould not be used. The cooling sys- tem must be maintained with the cor- rect concentration and type of enginecoolant to prevent freezing and corro- sion. Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to exceed the 60% level orgo below the 35% level, otherwise damage to the cooling system may result. For proper concentration whenadding or replacing the engine cool- ant, refer to the following table.

To Check the Transmission Fluid Level
Park the car on level ground with the
parking brake engaged. When the transmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be atnormal operating temperature and the engine idling.
While the engine is idling, apply the brakes and move the gear selectorlever from "P" to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" — and then return to "N" or "P". With theengine still idling: HHP30181. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothingclear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transmission dipstick,wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstickas far as it will go, then remove it again. Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the"HOT" range on the dipstick. HHP5009
