B290A02A-AAT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERA- TURE GAUGE
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The engine cool-ant is under pressure and could erupt and cause severe burns. Wait until the engine is cool before re-moving the radiator cap.
The needle on the engine coolant tem-perature gauge should stay in the nor-mal range. If it moves across the dial to "H" (Hot), pull over and stop as soon as possible and turn off the engine. Then open the hood and, after the engine has cooled, check the coolant level and thewater pump drive belt. If you suspect cooling system trouble, have your cool- ing system checked by a Hyundai dealeras soon as possible.

CAUTION:
Avoid driving with a very low fuel level. If you run out of fuel, it could cause the engine to misfire and re-sult in excessive loading of the cata- lytic converter.

WARNING:
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injectors andhigh pressure pipes are subject to high pressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced byfuel leaks may cause serious in- jury, if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not movethan 30cm closer to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room while engine is running, sincethe high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields. WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot. This can allowcoolant to be blown out of the open- ing and cause serious burns.
6. If you cannot find the cause of the overheating, wait until the engine temperature has returned to nor-mal. Then, if the engine coolant has been lost, carefully add coolant to the reservoir (Page 6-10) to bringthe fluid level in the reservoir up to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert
for further signs of overheating. Ifoverheating happens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assistance.

5. If the water pump drive belt is broken
or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately and call the near- est Hyundai dealer for assistance. D040A01HR-GAT The following instructions for the FULL SIZE spare tire should be observed: Check inflation pressure as soon as practical after installing the spare tire, and adjust to the specified pressure. The tire pressure should be periodi-cally checked and maintained at the specified pressure while the tire is stored.

Serious loss of engine coolant indi- cates there is a leak in the coolingsystem and this should be checked as soon as possible by a Hyundai dealer. TIRE SIZE

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

F060F01A-AAT
o Vacuum and Crankcase
Ventilation Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical dam- age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessiveswelling indicate deterioration. Particu- lar attention should be paid to examin- ing those hose surfaces nearest tohigh heat sources, such as the ex- haust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that
the hoses do not come in contact withany heat source, sharp edges or mov- ing component which might cause heatdamage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they aresecure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immedi- ately if there is any evidence of dete-rioration or damage. F060B01HR-GAT
o Drive Belts
Inspect all drive belts (water pump andalternator) for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oiliness, and re- place if necessary. Drive belts shouldbe checked periodically for proper ten- sion and adjusted as necessary. F060E01A-GAT
o Timing Belt
Inspect all parts related with the timing
belt for damage and deformation. Re- place any damaged parts immediately.
F060H01A-AAT
o Air Cleaner Filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter isrecommended when the filter is re-placed.
F060G01A-AAT
o Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler Cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. Make sure that a new vapor hoseor fuel filler cap is correctly replaced.
F070B01A-GAT
o Cooling System
Check the cooling system part, suchas radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections for leakage and dam- age. Replace any damaged parts. F070C01A-AAT
o Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the intervals specified in the mainte- nance schedule. F070D01HP-GAT
o Manual Transmission Oil Inspect the manual transmission oil according to the maintenance sched- ule. NOTE: If the oil level is low, check for possible leaks before adding oil.Do not overfill.

G050B01A-AAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol cool- ant in a 50/50 mix with water. Theengine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Additional corrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system must be maintained with the correct con- centration and type of engine coolantto prevent freezing and corrosion. Never allow the concentration of anti- freeze to exceed the 60% level or gobelow the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result. For proper concentration when adding or replacingthe engine coolant, refer to the following table.

CHECKING AND CHANGING THE ENGINE COOLANT
G050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
o Never attempt to remove the radia-tor cap while the engine is operat- ing or hot. Doing so might lead to cooling system and engine dam- age and could result in seriouspersonal injury from escaping hot coolant or steam.
o Turn the engine off and wait until
it cools down. Use extreme carewhen removing the radiator cap. Wrap a thick towel around it, andturn it counterclockwise slowly to the first stop. Step back while the pressure is released from the cool-ing system. When you are sure all the pressure has been released, press down on the cap, using athick towel, and continue turning counterclockwise to remove it. Removing radiator cap

G050C01A-GAT 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 "L" and "F" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cold. If thelevel is below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "L" and "F". If the level is low, inspect forcoolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspec-tion and diagnosis of the reason.
G050D01HR
G050D01HR-GAT To Change the Coolant The coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehiclemaintenance schedule in Section 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill enginecoolant on the car, wash it off thor- oughly with clean water.
!
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and lift up the front passenger's seat. (Refer to "To in- spect the Engine Compartment Un- der the Front Passenger's Seat" onpage 1-13). 2. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it,until it stops. This relieves any pres-sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning counter-clockwise.

!WARNING:
6. Start the engine, top off the radiator with water, open the hood and then add engine coolant to the reservoir until the level is between "L" and "F".
7. Replace the radiator and reservoir
caps and check to be sure the draincocks are fully closed and not leak- ing.
3. Be sure your drain receptacle is inplace. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow all the engine coolantto drain from the cooling system, then securely close the drain cock.
4. Check Section 9 for the capacity of
the cooling system in your car. Then,following the manufacturer's direc- tions on the engine coolant contain-er, add the appropriate quantity of coolant to the radiator.
5. Fill the radiator with clean demineral-
ized or distilled water. Continue toadd clean demineralized or distilled water in small quantities until thefluid level stays up in the radiator neck. G050D02HR
!WARNING:
Do not remove the radia- tor cap when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding hot coolant andsteam may blow out un- der pressure causing se- rious injury.The electric motor (cool- ing fan) is controlled by engine coolant tempera- ture, refrigerant pressure
and vehicle speed. It may some-times operate even when the engineis not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not in-jured by a rotating fan blades. As the engine coolant temperature de- creases, the electric motor will auto-matically shut off. This is a normal condition.
