!WARNING:
Be very careful when draining the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you!
4. When the oil has stopped draining, replace the drain plug using a new gasket and retighten by turning it clockwise.
Tightening torque : 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counterclockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper size. A certainamount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So be sure to have your drain pan in place underneathit.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance
with the instructions on the carton oron the filter itself. Do not over-tighten.
Tightening torque: 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m Be sure that the mounting surfaceon the engine is clean and that theold gasket is removed completely. Lubricate the new gasket on the filter with clean engine oil beforeinstallation.

7. Remove the engine oil level dipstick.
8. Refill the crankcase with the recom- mended engine oil slowly. Refer to the specification in chapter 9 for engine oil capacity.
CAUTION:
o Slowly pour the recommended oil by using a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage the engine.
o Do not spill engine oil, when add- ing or changing engine oil. If youdrop the engine oil on the engine room, wipe it off immediately. 9. Start the engine and check to be
sure no oil is leaking from the drainplug or oil filter.
10. Shut off the engine and recheck the
oil level.
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.

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.

15FILLING THE WASHER RESERVOIR
G090A02HR-GAT The washer fluid reservoir supplies fluid to the windshield washer system. A good quality washer fluid should be used to fill the washer reservoir. Thefluid level should be checked more frequently during inclement weather or whenever the washer system is in morefrequent use. The capacity of the washer reservoir is 2.0 liters. HHR5016
2. Pull up the wiper blade until you hear
an audible "click" to engage in theend of the wiper arm.
NOTE: Do not allow the wiper arm to fall against the windshield. HHR5051
CAUTION:
o Radiator antifreeze (engine cool- ant) should not be used in thewasher system because it will damage the car's finish.
o The washer should not be oper- ated if the washer reservoir isempty. This can damage thewasher fluid pump.
!
!WARNING:
o Windshield washer fluid agents contain some amounts of alcohol and can be flammable under cer- tain circumstances. Do not allow sparks or flame to contact thewasher fluid or the washer fluid reservoir. Damage to the vehicle or its occupants could occur.
o Windshield washer fluid is poi- sonous to humans and animals.Do not drink windshield washerfluid. Serious injury or death could occur.
