Engine Oil Level
The engine oil level should be checked with the engine at normal operatingtemperature and the vehicle parked upon level ground. Prior to checking the level, the vehicle should be allowed to stand for several minutes after the engine has been switched off to allow the oil to drainback to the sump.Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it witha clean rag. Replace the dipstick fully and withdraw again when the oil level may be read from the dipstick.

2.7LNormal oil level is indicated when the oil is present between the two markson the dipstick. It is not necessary to add oil if the level is above the lower mark and in any case, oil must not beadded to the degree that the level exceeds the upper mark. Replace the dipstick fully after checking the level.
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch theradiator hose when checking the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.HGK5005
SG030D2-E Engine Oil Replenishment If the indicated oil level is at or below the lower mark of the dipstick, oilshould be added until the level is at or below the upper mark. To add oil to the engine, remove the filler cap by rotating in an counter- clockwise direction and pour engine oil into the engine. Before checkingthe level again, allow several minutes for the oil to drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler cap rotating it ina clockwise direction until tight.The quantity of oil required to raisethe level from the minimum to maxi- mum level is approximately 1 litre. 1.6L/2.0L

SG050C1-E Engine Coolant Level
The engine coolant level may be
observed through the side of the plas- tic coolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "L" mark, add coolant ofthe correct concentration until the level is between the "L" and "F" marks. If the level falls below the "L" mark on aregular basis despite being topped up, consult a Hyundai authorised re- pairer. SG050D1-E 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.
3. With the heater temperature controlset to the "HOT" position, removethe radiator cap and open the radia- tor drain tap.
4. When the engine coolant has drained completely, close the drain tap en- suring that this is not over tight-ened. G050D03E
CAUTION:
Care should be taken to ensure that
coolant is not allowed to spill ontothe paintwork since the finish maybecome damaged. If coolant spill- age occurs, the affected area should be rinsed thoroughly with water.
!
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and ensure that the parking brake is firmly applied, and the engine al- lowed to cool. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS OPERA- TION WHILST THE ENGINE IS HOT SINCE BURNING OR SCALD-ING MAY RESULT.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to
collect the displaced coolant andposition this under the radiator drain tap.

11CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER FILTER
G070A01E-AAT To change the filter, unsnap the clips around the cover. When this is done, the cover can be lifted off, the oldfilter removed and the new filter put in its place. Genuine Hyundai Replace- ment Parts are recommended.
HGK5010
! CAUTION:
o Operating your vehicle without a proper air cleaner filter in place can result in excessive engine wear.
o When removing the air cleaner filter, be careful that dust or dirtdoes not enter the air intake. These may result in damage tothe air cleaner filter.
G050D04E
!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when theengine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so thatyou are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will au-tomatically shut off. This is a nor- mal condition.
5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new
engine coolant (refer to section 9) and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator
cap still removed and continue toadd coolant as the level decreases as air is expelled from the system. When the level remains constant,replace the radiator cap and re- plenish the coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks arepresent.

NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is red in colour. As driving distance in-creases, the fluid colour turns dark- ish red gradually. It is a normal condition and you should not judgethe need to replace based upon the changing colour. You must replace the automatic transaxle fluid in accordance with intervals specified in the vehicle maintenances schedule in section 5.
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level must bechecked with the engine running and at normal operating tempera- ture and therefore care must be ex-ercised to prevent injury occurring through contact with rotating or hot parts of the engine. G110D03L-GAT
Checking the automatic transaxle fluid level
The automatic transaxle fluid level
should be checked regularly.
Keep the vehicle on the level ground
with the parking brake applied and check the fluid level according to the following procedure.
1. Place the selector lever in N (Neu- tral) position and confirm the engine is running at normal idle speed.
2. After the transaxle is warmed up sufficiently (fluid temperature70~80°C (158~176°F)), for example by 10 minutes usual driving, shiftthe selector lever through all posi- tions then place the selector lever in N (Neutral) or P (Park) position.

Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
3. Confirm that the fluid level is in “HOT” range on the level gauge. If the fluid level is lower, add the specified fluid from the fill hole. If the fluid level is higher, drain thefluid 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 “COLD” line and then recheck the fluid level according to the above step 2.

SG120A1-E BRAKE SYSTEM CHECK- ING
CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking
system is essential to the safe operation of the vehicle and there- fore, any maintenance operationsother than those listed below should be entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer.
!WARNING:
The electric engine cooling fan au-
tomatically switches on and off ac- cording to engine temperature. Be careful to keep away from the fan during this check as it may switchon at any time.
NOTE: Only lint free cloth should be used for wiping the dipstick. The pres- ence of lint within the transaxle may cause problems with the nor- mal function of the transaxle. 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 belowthe "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having carefully cleaned the area sur- rounding the reservoir cap to ensurethat dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be noted will de- crease slightly as the friction linings ofthe pads and shoes become worn and that this is a normal condition.

YG210A1-E
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Do not touch the radiator fan until it is completely stopped.
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 conditioneris in operation. YG220A1-E Power Steering Hoses It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance sched-ule in Section 5. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there are severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hoses could cause premature failure.
HGK5011
G230A01GK-EAT 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. NOTE:
o The power steering pump may be
noisy when the engine is first started in the extreme cold (-20°C/ -4°F). This noise is not abnormal and will stop as the engine warmsup. If the power steering pump continues to be noisy after the engine has warmed up, have itinspected by your Hyundai authorised repairer.
o Do not check whilst the engine is running. Do not start when powersteering fluid reservoir is empty.

7EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
2
SH010A1-E (Not all models) Depending upon the market for which the vehicle is destined, the emission control system will comprise one or more of the following emission controldevices.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys-
tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys- tem
(3) Exhaust emission control systemIn order that the proper functioning of the emission control systems may be ensured, it is recommended that the vehicle is inspected and maintainedby a Hyundai authorised repairer in accordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual. EMISSION CONTROL SYS- TEMS
DH010B1-E
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crankcase. This system supplies fresh air to the crankcase through the air cleaner. In- side the crankcase, the fresh air mixeswith blow-by gases, then passes through the PCV valve into the intake system. When the engine is running, the fuelvapors absorbed in the canister aredrawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve The purge control solenoid valve is controlled by the ECU (Engine Control Unit); when the engine coolant tem- perature is low, and during idling, itcloses, so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the surge tank. After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, itopens to introduce evaporated fuel to the surge tank.
JH010D1-E
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
This system helps control oxides of
nitrogen by recirculating a portion of the exhaust gases into the intake manifold, thereby reducing cylinder combustion temperatures.
ZH010C1-E
2. Evaporative Emission
Control System
The Evaporative Emission Control System is designed to prevent fuelvapors from escaping into the atmo- sphere. Canister Whilst the engine is inoperative, fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canis- ter.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
3CATALYTIC CONVERTOR
SH020A1-E Hyundai Coupe models are fitted with catalytic convertors which requirespecial operating considerations. The catalytic convertor serves to oxidize certain noxious elements of the ex-haust gases leaving the engine to reduce the level of pollutants emitted from the vehicle and, provided thatcare is exercised to prevent damage, the catalyst will operate efficiently for the life of the vehicle. It is of the utmost importance that the following information is read and un- derstood by the vehicle operator inorder to prevent operational problems arising from damage to the catalyst. Damage to the catalyst will result if contamination occurs through the useof leaded fuel. Whilst the vehicle is fitted with a reduced diameter filler neck to prevent charging of the fueltank with a leaded fuel pump nozzle, it is possible that the use of funnels or fuel cans will permit leaded fuel to beintroduced into the fuel tank.The catalyst is intolerant of unburntfuel and therefore if an engine misfirecondition exists, damage to the cata- lyst will occur. It is imperative that if a misfire condition develops, the ve-hicle is immediately presented to a Hyundai authorised repairer for rectifi- cation. Similarly, the practice of cer-tain ignition system diagnosis proce- dures which involve inducing a misfire (cylinder power balance tests for ex-ample) may result in catalyst damage.For these reasons, it is advisable thatthe exhaust gas emission be tested at each routine service with a gas analyzer having a Hydrocarbon mea-suring facility to ensure continued re- liability of the catalyst.
Catalytic Converter
OGK076501 Push or tow starting of the vehicle is to be avoided since unburnt fuel mayenter the catalyst and result in dam- age. (Note, it is impossible to push or tow start a Hyundai model equippedwith fuel injection since the fuel pump safety interlock will prevent the pump from operating under these conditions). Operation of the catalyst involves ex- tremely high temperatures being at- tained within the catalytic convertor,and although the convertor is fitted with heat shields, it is important that the vehicle is not parked over combus-tible or volatile material which may result in fire. If the above precautions are not ad- hered to and the catalyst becomes inoperative, the resultant increase incore temperature will result in a "melt down" where the catalyst core will melt and subsequently may block theexhaust system.Due to the fragile nature of the cata-lyst element, it is important that dam-age does not occur when the vehicle is raised by means of a garage jack. Care must also be exercised to avoiddriving over road hazards or debris which may cause damage to the cata- lyst element.
