WINDSHIELD WIPER
BLADESG080A02A-AATThe wiper blades should be carefully in-
spected from time to time and cleaned to
remove accumulations of road film or other
debris. To clean the wiper blades and
arms, use a clean sponge or cloth with a
mild soap or detergent and water. If the
wipers continue to streak or smear the
glass, replace them with genuine Hyundai
replacement parts or their equivalent.
!
CAUTION:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass.
This can result in more rapid wear of the
wiper blades and may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact
with petroleum products such as en-
gine oil, gasoline, etc.

FILLING THE WASHER
RESERVOIRG090A01CM-AATThe washer fluid reservoir supplies fluid to
the front and rear washer systems.
A good quality washer fluid should be
used to fill the washer reservoir. The fluid
level should be checked more frequently
during inclement weather or whenever the
washer system is in more frequent use.
CAUTION:
o Radiator anti-freeze (engine coolant)
should not be used in the washer sys-
tem because it will damage the car's
finish.
o The washer should not be operated if
the washer reservoir is empty. This
can damage the washer fluid pump.
!!
WARNING:
o Windshield washer fluid agents con-
tain some amounts of alcohol and can
be flammable under certain circum-
stances. Do not allow sparks or flame
to contact the washer fluid or the
washer fluid reservoir. Damage to
the vehicle or its occupants could
occur.
o Windshield washer fluid is poisonous
to humans and animals. Do not drink
windshield washer fluid. Serious in-
jury or death could occur.
CHECKING THE
TRANSAXLE OIL (MANUAL)G100A01MC-GATTransaxle lubricant in the manual transaxle
should be checked at those intervals speci-
fied in the vehicle maintenance schedule
in Section 5.
!
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 hot engine or exhaust parts.NOTE:It is recommended that the manual
transaxle fluid should be checked by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.

o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the
affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assis-
tance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out
your eyes with water and get medical
assistance as soon as possible. While
you are being driven to get medical
assistance, continue to rinse your eyes
by using a sponge or soft cloth satu-
rated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large
quantity of water or milk followed by milk
of magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink
vegetable oil. Get medical assistance
as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged (either
by a battery charger or by the vehicle's
generator), they produce explosive gases.
Always observe these warnings to prevent
injuries from occurring:
o Charge batteries only in a well venti-
lated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smok-
ing in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.
!
G210B04A-AATChecking the BatteryKeep the battery clean. Any evidence of
corrosion around the battery posts or ter-
minals should be removed using a solu-
tion of household baking soda and warm
water. After the battery terminals are dry,
cover them with a light coating of grease.
WARNING:Always read the following in-
structions carefully when han-
dling 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 and
may explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of the reach
of children because batteries
contain highly corrosive SUL-
FURIC ACID. Do not allow bat-
tery acid to contact your skin,
eyes, clothing or paint finish.
If any electrolyte gets into your
eyes, flush your eyes with
clean water for at least 15 min-
utes and get immediate medi-
cal attention. If possible, con-
tinue to apply water with a
sponge or cloth until medical
attention is received.
!
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds, chemicals known to the state of
California to cause cancer and repro-
ductive harm.
Batteries also contain other chemicals
known to the state of California to cause
cancer. Wash hands after handling.

G240A01A-AATPower Steering HosesIt is suggested that you check the power
steering hose connections for fluid leak-
age at those intervals specified in the ve-
hicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
The power steering hoses should be re-
placed if there is severe surface cracking,
pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora-
tion of the hose could cause premature
failure.NOTE:o Grinding noise from the power steer-
ing pump may be heard immediately
after the engine is started in extremely
cold conditions (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 char-
acteristic in extremely cold condi-
tions.
oDo not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty.
POWER STEERING FLUID
LEVELG230A01MC-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.

FOR MORE INFORMATION
ABOUT YOUR HYUNDAIG250A01A-AATIf you desire additional information about
maintaining and servicing your Hyundai,
you may purchase a factory Shop Manual
at your Hyundai dealer's parts department.
This is the same manual used by dealer-
ship technicians and while it is highly tech-
nical it can be useful in obtaining a better
understanding of your car and how it works.

REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT
BULBSG260A01CM-AATBefore attempting to replace a light bulb,
be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF"
position.
The next paragraph shows how to reach
the light bulbs so they may be changed. Be
sure to replace the burned-out bulb with
one of the same number and wattage
rating.
CAUTION:
o Keep the lamps out of contact with
petroleum products, such as oil, gaso-
line, etc.
o After heavy, driving rain or washing,
headlight and taillight lenses could
appear frosty. This condition is
caused by the temperature difference
between the lamp inside and outside.
This is similar to the condensation on
your windows inside your vehicle
during the rain and doesn’t indicate a
problem with your vehicle. If the water
leaks into the lamp bulb circuitry, have
the vehicle checked by an Authorized
Hyundai Dealer.
