C160H02A-AATUse Approved Window Washer Anti-
Freeze in SystemTo keep the water in the window washer system
from freezing, add an approved window washer
anti-freeze solution in accordance with instruc-
tions on the container. Window washer anti-
freeze is available from Hyundai dealers and
most auto parts outlets. Do not use engine
coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these
may damage the paint finish.C160I01A-AATDon’t Let Your Parking Brake FreezeUnder some conditions your parking brake can
freeze in the engaged position. This is most
likely to happen when there is an accumulation
of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes
or if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk the
parking brake may freeze, apply it only tempo-
rarily while you put the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic) or in first or reverse gear (manual
transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car
cannot roll. Then release the parking brake.
C160C01A-AATUse High Quality Ethylene Glycol Cool-
antYour Hyundai is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling system. It
is the only type of coolant that should be used
because it helps prevent corrosion in the cool-
ing system, lubricates the water pump and
prevents freezing. Be sure to replace or replen-
ish your coolant in accordance with the main-
tenance schedule in Section 5. Before winter,
have your coolant tested to assure that its
freezing point is sufficient for the temperatures
anticipated during the winter.C160D01F-AATCheck Battery and CablesWinter puts additional burdens on the battery
system. Visually inspect the battery and cables
as described in Section 6 (See page 6-23). The
level of charge in your battery can be checked
by your Hyundai dealer or a service station.
C160E01A-AATChange to "Winter Weight" Oil if Neces-
saryIn some climates it is recommended that a lower
viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during cold
weather. See Section 9 for recommendations.
If you aren’t sure what weight oil you should use,
consult your Hyundai dealer.C160F01F-AATCheck Spark Plugs and Ignition SystemInspect your spark plugs as described in Sec-
tion 6 (See page 6-10) and replace them if
necessary. Also check all ignition wiring and
components to be sure they are not cracked,
worn or damaged in any way.C160G01A-AATTo Keep Locks from FreezingTo keep the locks from freezing, squirt an
approved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key
opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it with
an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If
the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to
thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the
heated key with care to avoid injury.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVELG230A03A-AATThe power steering fluid level should be checked
regularly. To check the power steering fluid
level, be sure the engine is "OFF", then check
to make certain that the power steering fluid
level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level
markings on the fluid reservoir.NOTE:Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the
engine is started in extremely cold condi-
tions (below - 4°F). If the noise stops during
warm up, there is no abnormal function in
the system. It is due to a power steering
fluid characteristic in extremely cold condi-
tions.
HGK5011G240A01A-AAT
POWER STEERING HOSESIt is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at regular
intervals. The power steering hoses should be
replaced if there is severe surface cracking,
scuffing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hose
could cause premature failure. Recommended Fluid
Use PSF-3 type fluidNOTE:Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty.
