Maintenance
Check the condition and connections of all cooling system hoses and heater
hoses. Replace any swollen or deterio-
rated hoses.
The coolant level should be filled
between F (MAX) and L (MIN) marks on
the side of the coolant reservoir when theengine is cool.
If the coolant level is low, add enough
specified coolant to provide protection
against freezing and corrosion. Bring the
level to F (MAX), but do not overfill. If fre-
quent coolant refill is required, we rec-
ommend that the system be inspected by
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.

(Continued)Step back whilst the pressure isreleased from the cooling sys-
tem. When you are sure all thepressure has been released,
press down on the cap, using a
thick towel, and continue turning
counterclockwise to remove it.
 Even if the engine is not operat- ing, do not remove the radiatorcap or the drain plug whilst the
engine and radiator are hot. Hot
coolant and steam may still blow
out under pressure, causing seri-
ous injury.WARNING
The electric motor (cool-
ing fan) is controlled byengine coolant tempera-
ture, refrigerant pres-
sure and vehicle speed.
It may sometimes operate evenwhen the engine is not running.
Use extreme caution when working
near the blades of the cooling fan
so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blades. As the engine
coolant temperature decreases, the
electric motor will automatically
shut off. This is a normal condition.
If your vehicle is equipped with
GDI, the electric motor (cooling fan)
may operate until you disconnect
the nagative battery cable.

Changing the coolant
We recommend that the coolant be
replaced by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir peri-
odically. The fluid level should be
between MAX (Maximum) and MIN
(Minimum) marks on the side of the
reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap and
adding brake/clutch fluid, clean the area
around the reservoir cap thoroughly to
prevent brake/clutch fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
(Maximum) level. The level will fall with
accumulated mileage. This is a normal
condition associated with the wear of the
brake linings and/or clutch disc (ifequipped).If the fluid level is excessively low, we
recommend that the brake system be
checked by a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants orcapacities” in section 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING - Loss of brake fluid
In the event the brake system
requires frequent additions of fluid,we recommend that the system be
inspected by a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
OLM079008R
CAUTION
Put a thick cloth or fabric around the radiator cap before refilling thecoolant in order to prevent the
coolant from overflowing intoengine parts such as generator.
WARNING - Coolant
 Do not use radiator coolant or anti
-freeze in the washer fluid reservoir.
 Radiator coolant can severely obscure visibility when sprayed
on the windscreen and may
cause loss of vehicle control or
damage to paint and body trim.

Checking the washer fluid level
1. Open the cover.
2. Pull the gauge out and check the level.
The level should be between H (High)
and L (Low).
3. If it is near of at L (Low), add enough washer fluid to bring the level to H
(High). Do not overfill.
Plain water may be used if washer fluid is
not available. However, use washer sol-
vent with antifreeze characteristics in
cold climates to prevent freezing.
OLM079010
WARNING - Coolant
 Do not use radiator coolant or antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
 Radiator coolant can severely obscure visibility when sprayed
on the windscreen and may
cause loss of vehicle control or
damage to paint and body trim.
 Windscreen Washer fluid agents contain some amounts of alcohol
and can be flammable under cer-
tain circumstances. Do not allowsparks or flame to contact thewasher fluid or the washer fluid
reservoir. Damage to the vehicle
or occupants could occur.
 Windscreen washer fluid is poi- sonous to humans and animals.
Do not drink and avoid contact-ing windscreen washer fluid.
Serious injury or death could
occur.WARNING - Brake fluid
When changing and adding brake
fluid, handle it carefully. Do not let it
come in contact with your eyes. Ifbrake fluid should come in contact
with your eyes, immediately flush
them with a large quantity of fresh
tap water. Have your eyes examined
by a doctor as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Do not allow brake fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, as paint
damage will result. Brake fluid,which has been exposed to open air for an extended time should neverbe used as its quality cannot be
guaranteed. It should be disposed of properly. Don't put in the wrongkind of fluid. A few drops of miner-al-based oil, such as engine oil, in
your brake system can damagebrake system parts.

PARKING BRAKE
Check the parking brake
Check the stroke of the parking brake by
counting the number of “clicks’’ heardwhilst fully applying it from the released
position. Also, the parking brake alone
should securely hold the vehicle on a fair-
ly steep grade. If the stroke is more or
less than specified, we recommend that
the system be checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
Stroke : 6 “clicks’’ at a force of 44 lbs (20 kg, 196 N). Draining water from fuel filter
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays an
important role of separating water from
fuel and accumulating the water in itsbottom.
If water accumulates in the fuel filter, the
warning light comes on when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
If this warning light illuminates,
we recommend that the system
by checked by a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer.
Extracting air from the fuel filter
If you drive until you have no fuel left or if
you replace the fuel filter, be sure to
extract air from the fuel system as it
makes it difficult to start the engine.
1. Pump up and down(1) approximately50 times until the pump is hard.
2. Extract air from the fuel filter by remov- ing the bolt(2) with a cross-tip screw
driver and reinstall the bolt(2).
3. Pump up and down(1) approximately 15 times.
4. Extract air from the fuel filter by remov- ing the bolt(2) with a cross-tip screw
driver and reinstall the bolt(2).
5. Pump up and down(1) approximately 5 times.
CAUTION
If the water accumulated in the fuel
filter is not drained at proper times,
damages to the major parts such asthe fuel system can be caused by water permeation in the fuel filter.

Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
 If the battery becomes discharged in a
short time (because, for example, the
headlights or interior lights were left on
whilst the vehicle was not in use),
recharge it by slow charging (trickle)
for 10 hours.
 If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load whilst the
vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20-
30A for two hours. Reset items
Items should be reset after the battery
has been discharged or the battery hasbeen disconnected.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses.
This vehicle has 3 (or 4) fuse panels, one
located in the driver’s side panel bolster,
the other in the engine compartment
near the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse will bemelted.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Before replacing a blown fuse, discon-
nect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and we recommend
that you consult a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
Four kinds of fuses are used: blade typefor lower amperage rating, cartridge type, and fusible link for higher amperage rat-ings.✽✽ NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label may
differ from equipped items.
WARNING - Fuse replace-
ment
 Never replace a fuse with any- thing but another fuse of the same rating.
 A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a
fire.
 Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and a possible fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuitand damage the system.

Maintenance
Inner panel fuse replacement
1. Turn the ignition switch and all otherswitches off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover. 3. Pull the suspected fuse straight out.
Use the removal tool provided in the
engine compartment fuse panel.
4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.
If it fits loosely, we recommend that you
consult a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuit you may
not need for operating the vehicle, suchas the cigar lighter fuse.
If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse block in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it mustbe replaced.
OLM079020ROLM079021N
CAUTION
 When replacing a blown fuse or relay with a new one, make sure
the new fuse or relay fits tightlyinto the clips. The incomplete fas-tening fuse or relay may cause the vehicle wiring and electric
systems damage and a possiblefire.
 Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or
nuts. The fuses, relays and termi-nals may be fastened incomplete-ly, and it may cause a possiblefire. If fuses, relays and terminals
fastened with bolts or nuts areblown, we recommend that youconsult with a HYUNDAI autho-
rised repairer.
 Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays intofuse/relay terminals such as adriver or wiring. It may cause con-
tact failure and system malfunc-tion.
