AIR CONDITIONING CARE
!
G140A01A-AATKeeping the Condenser CleanThe air conditioning condenser (and en-
gine radiator) should be checked periodi-
cally for accumulation of dirt, dead insects,
leaves, etc. These can interfere with maxi-
mum cooling efficiency. When removing
such accumulations, brush or hose them
away carefully to avoid bending the cool-
ing fins.
G140C01A-AATLubricationTo lubricate the compressor and the seals
in the system, the air conditioning should
be run for at least 10 minutes each week.
This is particularly important during cool
weather when the air conditioning system
is not otherwise in use.G140B01A-AATChecking the Air Conditioning
Operation1. Start the engine and let it run at a fast idle
for several minutes with the air condi-
tioning set at the maximum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents
is not cold, have the air conditioning
system inspected by your Hyundai
dealer.
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning system for
extended periods of time with a low re-
frigerant level may damage the com-
pressor.

G120E02A-AATAdding Brake Fluid
WARNING:Handle brake fluid carefully. It can dam-
age your vision if it gets into your eyes.
Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification
fluid from a sealed container. Do not
allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain
open any longer than required. This will
prevent 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 recommended fluid into the res-
ervoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the
cap on the reservoir and tighten.
