3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use
a funnel to add transaxle fluid through the dipstick tube until the levelreaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine coolant temperature and maysometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the bladesof the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreas-es, the fan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition. WARNING (
Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pres- sure pump, rail, injectors and highpressure pipes are subjected to high pressure even after the engine has been switched off. The fuel jet pro-duced by fuel leaks may cause seri- ous injury, if it contacts with the body. People using pacemakersshould not move closer than 30cm to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room with the engine run-ning, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce con- siderable magnetic fields.
G110D03MC
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
1. Open the hood, being careful to keep
hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as faras 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. G110D02MC

G120B01A-AAT Checking the Brake Fluid Level
! CAUTION:
Because brakes are essential to the safe operation of the car, it is sug-gested that they be checked and inspected by your Hyundai dealer. The brakes should be checked andinspected for wear at those inter- vals specified in the vehicle mainte- nance schedule in Section 5.
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brakefluid. It can damage your vision if itgets into your eyes. It will also dam- age your vehicle's paint if spilled on it and not removed immediately.
G120D01A-AAT To Check the Fluid Level
OMC055015
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 the reservoir. If the level is at or below the"MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring it up to "MAX". Do not overfill.

G120E02A-AAT Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from a sealedcontainer. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain open any longer than required. This will pre-vent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake system and cause improper operation. To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then unscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour the recommendedfluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser- voir and tighten.

G210B01Y-GAT Checking the Battery Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corrosion around the battery postsor terminals should be removed using a solution of household baking soda and warm water. After the battery ter-minals are dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly cor- rosive SULFURIC ACID. Donot allow battery acid to con- tact your skin, eyes, cloth- ing or paint finish.If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least15 minutes and get immedi- ate medical attention. If pos- sible, continue to applywater with a sponge or cloth until medical attention is re- ceived.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.
WARNING: Always read the following instructions carefully when handling 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 andmay explode if ignited.!
o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medi- cal assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse
out your eyes with water and getmedical assistance as soon as pos- sible. While you are being driven toget medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk fol-lowed by milk of magnesia, eat araw egg or drink vegetable oil. Get medical assistance as soon as pos- sible.
While batteries are being charged (ei-ther by a battery charger or by thevehicle's alternator), they produce ex- plosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries from oc-curring:
o Charge batteries only in a well ven- tilated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or
smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.

o When lifting a plastic-cased bat-
tery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid to leak, 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 components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
!
G220B01A-AAT Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should come on automatically if the engine coolant tem-perature is high. G220C01TB-GAT Checking Condenser Cooling Fan When the air conditioning is in opera- tion, the condenser cooling fan comeson automatically to be controlled by ECU.G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant temper- ature decreases the fan will automat- ically shut off. This is a normal con-dition.
POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
G230A01MC-GAT (If Installed) 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 power steering fluid level is between the "MAX"and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.

25REMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER
1JBA7504
G240A01A-AAT POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be re-placed if there is severe surface crack- ing, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora- tion of the hose could cause prema-ture failure. G300A01MC-GAT (DIESEL ENGINE) If the fuel filter warning light illuminates during driving, it indicates that waterhas accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as soon as possible. NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should be removed by an authorized Hyundaidealer.
NOTE:
o Grinding noise from the power
steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is startedin extremely cold conditions (be- low - 20°C). If the noise stops during warm up, there is no ab-normal function in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely coldconditions.
o Do not start the engine when the
power steering oil reservoir isempty.
!WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away any water drained out in this manner, because the fuel mixed in the watermight be ignited and result in a fire.
