!WARNING:
It is always better to check the
transaxle oil level when the engine is cool or cold. If the engine is hot, you should exercise great caution to avoid burning yourself on hotengine or exhaust parts.
NOTE: It is recommended that the manual
transaxle fluid should be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE FLUID (AUTOMATIC)
G110A01MC-AAT Transaxle fluid in the automatic transaxle should be checked at those intervals specified in the vehicle main-tenance schedule in Section 5. NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is basi- cally a red color. As driving dis- tance increases, the fluid color turnsdarkish red gradually. It is normal condition and you should not judge the need to replace based upon thechanging color.You must replace the automatictransaxle fluid in accordance withintervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in section 5.
!WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at nor- mal operating temperature. This means that the engine, radiator, exhaust system etc., are very hot.Exercise great care not to burn your- self during this procedure.

To Check the Transaxle Fluid Level
1.6/2.0L 2.7L
The automatic transaxle fluid level should be checked regularly. Keep the vehicle on level ground with the parking brake applied and check the fluid level according to the follow-ing procedure.
1. Place the shift lever in N(neutral) position and confirm the engine isrunning at idle speed.
2. After the transaxle is warmed up
sufficiently [fluid temperature70~80°C (158~176°F)], for example by 10 minutes usual driving, move the shift lever through all positionsthen place the shift lever in N(neutral) or P(park) position. 3. Confirm if the fluid level is in the
“HOT” range on the level gauge. Ifthe fluid level is lower, add the specified fluid from the fill hole. If the fluid level is higher, drain the fluid from the drain hole.
4. If the fluid level is checked in cold condition[fluid temperature 20~30°C(68~86°F)], add the fluid to the“COLD” line and then recheck the fluid level according to the above step 2.

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature andmay sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when workingnear the blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the enginecoolant temperature decreases, the fan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
Fluid level should be within this
range

Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can
damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT4 specification fluid from a sealed container. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain openany longer than required. This will avoid entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake sys- tem and cause improper opera- tion. The clutch fluid level in the mastercylinder should be checked when performing other under hood services. The system should be checked forleakage at the same time. Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is always between the "MAX" and"MIN" level markings on the fluid res- ervoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indi- cates a leak in the clutch systemwhich should be inspected and re- paired immediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer.G140A01A-AAT
Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and
engine radiator) should be checked periodically for accumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. These caninterfere with maximum cooling effi- ciency. When removing such accu- mulations, brush or hose them awaycarefully to avoid bending the cooling fans. AIR CONDITIONING CARE

CHECKING THE BATTERY
G210A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Batteries can be dangerous! When working with batteries, carefullyobserve the following precautions to avoid serious injuries. The fluid in the battery contains a
strong solution of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or thecar. If you do spill battery fluid on yourself, immediately do the follow- ing: o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush
the affected areas with water for atleast 15 minutes and then seek medical assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and getmedical assistance as soon as possible. While you are being drivento get medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated withwater.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk fol- lowed by milk of magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetable oil. Getmedical assistance as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged
(either by a battery charger or by the vehicle's alternator), they produce explosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries fromoccurring:
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.

G210B01Y-GET
Checking the Battery
Keep the battery clean. Any evidence
of corrosion around the battery posts or terminals should be removed using a solution of household baking sodaand warm water. After the battery terminals are dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.
WARNING:Always read the followinginstructions carefullywhen handling a battery.Keep lighted cigarettesand all other flames orsparks away from the bat- tery. Hydrogen, which is a highly combustible gas, is always present in batterycells and may explode if ignited.

CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the coolant fan,so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the coolant temperature decreases the fan willautomatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly corrosive SULFURIC 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 ap- ply water with a sponge or cloth until medical atten-tion is received.If electrolyte gets on yourskin, thoroughly wash thecontacted area.If you feel a pain or a burn-ing sensation, get medi- cal 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 in- jury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on oppositecorners.
o Never attempt to charge the bat- tery when the battery cables are connected.
o The electrical ignition system works with high voltage. Never touch these componentswith the engine running or the ignition switched on.
