G120E01HR-GAT Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from a sealedcontainer. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain open any longer than required. This will pre-vent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake system and cause improper operation. To add brake fluid, pull up the cover, wipe away any dirt, and open the fluidreservoir cap. Slowly pour the recom- mended fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the cap on thereservoir and tighten.
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 below the "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bringit up to "MAX". Do not overfill.

G140B01A-AAT Checking the Air Conditioning Operation
1. Start the engine and let it run at a
fast idle for several minutes with the air conditioning set at the maximum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air condi-tioning system inspected by yourHyundai dealer.
G140C01A-AAT Lubrication To lubricate the compressor and the seals in the system, the air conditioning should be run for at least 10 minuteseach week. This is particularly important during cool weather when the air condi- tioning system is not otherwise in use.
! CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys- tem for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level may damage the compressor. Crankshaft pulley
G140D01A-GAT Checking the Compressor Drive Belt
When the air conditioning is being used regularly, the compressor drive belt tension should be checked at leastonce a month. To check the drive belt tension, press down on the belt halfway between theengine crankshaft and compressor pulleys. Pressing with your finger, you should not be able to deflect this beltanymore than 8.0 mm. If you have the instruments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.), the deflection should beapprox. 8.0 mm (0.315 in.). If the belt is too loose, have it adjusted by your Hyundai dealer.

G200B01HR-GAT Replacing Accessory Fuse The fuse box for the lights and other electrical accessories will be found lowon the dashboard on the driver's side. Inside the box you will find a list show- ing the circuits protected by each fuse.If any of your car's lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown fuse could be the reason. If thefuse has burned out, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has burned through. If you suspect a blownfuse, follow this procedure: HHR4003
CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use anything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amperagerating. Never use a piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious damage andcreate a fire hazard.

G200A01HR-GAT Replacing a Fusible Link
G200A01HR
Melted
Good
A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever over- loaded, thus preventing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This could becaused by a short in the system draw- ing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer de-termine the cause, repair the system and replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a fuse box for easyinspection. NOTE:
o To replace a fusible link, first tilt
the driver's seatback forward. (Re- fer to "To Inspect the Engine Com- partment Under the Driver's Seat" on page 1-12.) G200A02HRo To open the fuse box cover, press
the hook of the cover and pull upthe cover.

1. Turn off the ignition and all other
switches.
2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fusepuller" tool is contained in the fuse box cover to simplify this operation).
3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears tohave burned out.
G200B01HR
4. Replace the blown fuse by pressinga new fuse of the same rating into place. The fuse should be a snug fit. If it is not, have the fuse clip repaired or replaced by a Hyundai dealer. If you do not have a spare fuse, youmay be able to borrow a fuse of the same or lower rating from an acces- sory you can temporarily get alongwithout (the radio or cigarette lighter, for example). Always remember to replace the borrowed fuse. G200B02L
Good
Burned out
CAUTION:
A burned-out fuse indicates thatthere is a problem in the electricalcircuit. If you replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the accessory is turned on, the problem is seriousand should be referred to a Hyun- dai dealer for diagnosis and repair. Never replace a fuse with anythingexcept a fuse with the same or a lower amperage rating. A higher ca- pacity fuse could cause damageand create a fire hazard.

CHECKING THE BATTERY
G210A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Batteries can be dangerous! When working with batteries, carefully ob-serve the following precautions to avoid serious injuries. D010B01HR
The fluid in the battery contains a strong solution of sulfuric acid, which is poi- sonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or the car. If youdo spill battery fluid on yourself, imme- diately do the following:
NOTE: See page 6-38 for the fuse panel descriptions. G200C01HR-GAT Power Connector
4. Insert the power connector in the
opposite direction.
NOTE:
o If the power connector is pulled up from the fuse panel, the warn- ing chime, audio, clock and inte-rior lamps, etc., will not operate. The following items must be reset after replacement.- Digital Clock
o Even though the power connector
is pulled up, the battery can stillbe discharged by operation of the headlights or other electrical de- vices.
Your vehicle is equipped with a powerconnector to prevent battery discharge if your vehicle is parked without being operated for prolonged periods. Use thefollowing procedures before parking the vehicle for prolonged periods.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Turn off the headlights and tail lights.

o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush
the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medi- cal assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and getmedical assistance as soon as pos- sible. While you are being driven toget medical assistance, continue to rinse your eyes by using a sponge or soft cloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk fol-lowed by milk of magnesia, eat a rawegg or drink vegetable oil. Get medi- cal assistance as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged (ei-ther by a battery charger or by the vehicle's alternator), they produce ex-plosive gases. Always observe these warnings to prevent injuries from oc- curring:
o Charge batteries only in a well ven- tilated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.G210B01HR-GET Checking the Battery Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corrosion around the battery posts orterminals should be removed using a solution of household baking soda and warm water. After the battery terminalsare dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.
WARNING:Always read the following instructions carefully when handling a battery. Keep lighted cigarettes andall other flames or sparks away from the battery. Hydrogen, which is a highlycombustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode if ignited.Keep batteries out of the reach of children because batteries contain highly cor-rosive SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acid to con- tact your skin, eyes, cloth-ing or paint finish. If any electrolyte gets intoyour eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and get immedi-ate medical attention. If pos- sible, continue to apply water with a sponge or clothuntil medical attention is re- ceived. If electrolyte gets on yourskin, thoroughly wash the contacted area. If you feel a pain or a burn-ing sensation, get medical attention immediately. Wear eye protection whencharging or working near a battery. Always provide ventilationwhen working in an en- closed space. An inappropriately disposedbattery can be harmful to the environment and human health. Dispose the batteryaccording to your local law(s) or regulation.
