23CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
!
G120E02A-AAT 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, first wipe away any dirt then unscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour the recommendedfluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser- voir and tighten. G130A01A-AAT To Check the Clutch Fluid
The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when per-forming other under hood services. The system should be checked for leakage at the same time.Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reser-voir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indi- cates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired im-mediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer.

C055B01B-GAT STARTING AND STOPPING THE ENGINE FOR TURBO CHARGERINTERCOOLER (DIESEL EN-GINE)
(1) Do not race the engine or sudden
accelerate the engine immediately after start it. If the engine is cold,allow the engine to idle for several seconds before it is driven to en- sure sufficient lubrication of theturbo charger unit.
(2) After high speed or extended driv-
ing, requiring a heavy engine load,the engine should be allowed to idle about 1 minute before turning it off. This idle time will allow the turbocharger to cool prior to shutting the engine off.
WARNING:
Do not turn the engine off immedi-ately after it has been subjected to a heavy load. Doing so may causesevere damage to the engine or turbo charger unit.
WARNING:
Be sure that the clutch is fully de-pressed when starting a manual transaxle vehicle. Otherwise thereis the potential to cause damage to the vehicle or injury to someone inside or outside the vehicle as aresult of the forward or backward movement of the vehicle that will occur if the clutch is not depressedwhen the vehicle is started. SC060B1-E The following suggestions are made to assist in achieving the greatest degree of fuel economy.
o Maintaining a constant check on
fuel consumption will enable the most economical use pattern anddriving style to be adopted.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very
short journeys if possible, particu-larly when a cold start is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are main-
tained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade of fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight, and if a roof rack is in use, remove it as soon as possible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead to enable adjustments inspeed to be made smoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration and sharp brak-ing.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high
speeds.
5. Turn the ignition key to the "START"
position and release it when theengine starts.

8MANUAL TRANSAXLE
CAUTION:
o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear when the car is in motion.
o To avoid damaging the selector
mechanism, do not use the gear shift lever as a hand rest. Release the lever immediately the shift is completed.
o To avoid premature clutch wear, do not use the clutch pedal as afoot rest, and do not hold thevehicle on a gradient using the clutch.
o Ensure that the engine is not over-revved by upshifting beforethe tachometer needle enters the red zone.
o Do not coast with the shift lever at the neutral position.
o When descending long gradi- ents, make use of the engine brak- ing to assist the footbrake to avoid brake fade or overheating.
SC090A03-E
The five speed fully synchronized transaxle is controlled by a floor mounted shift lever upon which theshift pattern is indicated. It is important that when changing gear, the clutch pedal is fully depressed to avoidtransaxle damage.
o Always ensure that the periodic
maintenance services are performedby a Hyundai dealer at the time and/ or mileage intervals specified.
o Use the air conditioning only when necessary.
