G050A01TG-AAT CHECKING THE ENGINE COOL- ANT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is under pres-sure and may erupt through the open- ing if the cap is removed. You could be seriously burned if you do notobserve this precaution. Do not re- move the radiator cap until the radia- tor is cool to touch. NOTE: It is recommended that the engine coolant should be changed by anauthorised Hyundai dealer.
HTB170
G050B01A-AAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol cool- ant in a 50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Additionalcorrosion inhibitors or additives should not be used. The cooling system must be maintained with the correct con-centration and type of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corrosion. Never allow the concentration of anti-freeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result. For properconcentration when adding or replac- ing the engine coolant, refer to the following table.
NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally acceptable man- ner. It is suggested that it be placedin a sealed container and taken to a service station for reclamation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or putit into the household trash.
!
CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil using by a funnel. Do not overfill notto damage engine.
!WARNING:
o Be very careful not to touch the radiator hose when adding the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.
o Used motor oil may cause irrita- tion or cancer of the skin if left incontact with the skin for prolongedperiods of time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water as soon as possible afterhandling used oil.

G050C02A-DAT To Check the Coolant Level The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir.The level of the coolant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add engine coolant to bring it upbetween "LOW" and "FULL". If the level is low, inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently.If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis of the reason for the coolantleak.

!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 tem- perature decreases, the fan will auto- matically shut off. This is a normalcondition.

G070A01TB-AAT CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER FILTER
1. Remove the engine cover (If installed)
2. Unsnap the clips around the cover.
3. Lift the cover off.
4. Remove the old filter and replace
with the new one. Genuine Hyundai Replacement Parts are recom- mended.
CAUTION:
Operating your vehicle without aproper air filter in place can result in excessive engine wear.

G110D03L-DAT Checking the automatic transaxle fluid level The automatic transaxle fluid level should be checked regularly.Keep the vehicle on the level ground with the hand brake applied and check the fluid level according to the followingprocedure.
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, shift theselector lever through all positions then place the selector lever in N (Neutral) or P (Park) position. C090A03FC
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
HTB164 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 ishigher, 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 “COLD” line and then recheck the fluid levelaccording to the above step 2. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine 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 that youare not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will auto-matically shut off. This is a normal condition.

6- 22 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
G230A03A-GAT POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL 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. HTB163NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steer- ing pump may be heard immediatelyafter the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops during warm up, there isno abnormal function in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold con-ditions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir is empty.

G220A01A-AAT CHECKING ELECTRIC COOL- ING FANS
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use ex- treme caution when working near the blades of the coolant fan, sothat you are not injured by a rotat- ing fan blade. As the engine cool- ant temperature decreases the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normal condition. G220B01A-AAT Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine coolant fan should come on automatically if the engine coolanttemperature is high. G220C01TB-AAT Checking Condenser Cooling Fan When the air conditioning is in opera- tion, the condenser cooling fan comes on automatically, being controlled by
the engine ECU.

G290A01FC-DAT HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tyres inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground
and press the front bumper & rear bumper down several times. Place the vehicle at a distance of 3,000 mm (118 in.) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,engine oil and fuel, and spare tyre,jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head light lenses and turn
on the headlights (low beam).
G240A01A-DAT POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections forfluid leakage at those intervals speci- fied in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5. The power steer-ing hoses should be replaced if there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff- ing or worn spots. Deterioration of thehoses could cause premature failure.

5. Open the bonnet.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the centre of each headlight beam pat-tern) and the horizontal line (throughthe centre of each headlight beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw the horizontal paral- lel line at 30 mm (1.18 in.) under the horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillipsscrewdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low
beam to each vertical line with aphillips screwdriver - HORIZONTAL AIMING.
