G160A01A-GAT CHECKING CLUTCH PEDAL FREE-PLAY
G160A01E
6 ~ 13 mm (0.24 ~ 0.51 in.)
With the engine off, press lightly on the clutch pedal until you feel a change in resistance. This is the clutch pedalfree-play. The free-play should be within the limits specified in the illustration. If it is not, have it inspected by yourHyundai dealer and adjusted or re- paired if necessary.G180A01A-GAT CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL CLEARANCE
G180A01L
45.1 mm (1.78 in.)
You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine run- ning, have your helper press down on the brake pedal several times and thenhold it down with a force of about 490 N (50 Kg, 110 lbs). The brake pedal clearance is the distance from the topsurface of the brake pedal to the as- phalt sheeting under the floor mat. If the brake pedal clearance is notwithin the limits specified in the illustra- tion, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if nec-essary.G170A01A-GAT CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL FREE-PLAY

G240A01A-AAT POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections forfluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be re- placed if there is severe surface crack-ing, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora- tion of the hose could cause prema- ture failure.
G300A03TB-GAT REMOVAL OF WATER FROM THE FUEL FILTER(DIESEL ENGINE) If the fuel filter warning light illuminates during driving, it indicates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should be removed by an authorized Hyundai dealer. WARNING:
Be sure to carefully wipe away anywater drained out in this manner,because the fuel mixed in the water might be ignited and result in a fire.
!
Extracting air in the fuel filter If you drove until you have no fuel left or if you replaced the fuel filter, be sure to extract air in the fuel system as itmakes you difficult to start the engine.
1) Remove the air extract nozzle cap on the fuel filter.
2) Pump up and down until the fuel flows out of the plug opening.
NOTE: Use cloths when you extract air so that the fuel is not sprayed around. Clean the fuel around the fuel filter orthe injection pump before starting the engine to prevent fire. Finally, check each part if the fuel is leaking.

If the vehicle has had front body repair and the headlight assembly has been replaced, the headlight aiming should be checked using the aiming screen asshown in the illustration. Turn on the headlight switch. (Low Beam Position)
1. Adjust headlights so that main axis
of light is parallel to center line of the body and is aligned with point "P"shown in the illustration.
2. Dotted lines in the illustration show
the center of headlights.

5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the
center of each headlight beam pat-tern) and the horizontal line (throughthe center 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. HTB269

G290A01FC-GAT HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUST- MENT Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press the front bumper and rear bumper down several times. Place the vehicle at a distance of 3,000mm (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 tire, jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn on the headlight (low beam).
7- 4 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
H020C01S-GAT
EGR SYSTEM ; For a diesel engine
This system helps control oxides of nitrogen by recirculating a part of theexhaust gas into the engine.
Diesel Particulate Filter (If Installed) The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) system removes the soot emitted from the vehicle. Unlike a disposable air filter, the DPF system automatically burns (oxidizes) and removes the accumulated sootaccording to the driving condition. In other words, the active burning by engine control system and high ex-haust gas temperature caused by nor- mal/high driving condition burns and removes the accumulated soot.However, if the vehicle continues to bedriven at low speed for long time, theaccumulated soot may not be auto- matically removed because of low exhaust gas temperature. In this par-ticular case, the amount of soot is out of detection limit, the soot oxidation process by engine control system maynot happen and the malfunction indica- tor light may blink. When the malfunction indicator light blinks, it may stop blinking by driving the vehicle at more than 60km/h (37 mph) or at more than second gear with1500 ~ 2000 engine rpm for a certain time (for about 25 minutes). If the malfunction indicator light con-
tinues to be blinked in spite of the procedure, please visit an authorizedHYUNDAI dealer and then check the DPF system.
If you continue to drive with the mal-
function indicator light blinking for a long time, the DPF system can bedamaged and fuel consumption can be worsen.
