6ZF070P1-A
o Driveshafts and boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps for cracks, deterioration, or damage. Replace any damaged parts and, if necessary, repack the grease. 6ZF070Q1-A
o Air conditioning refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and connections for leakage and damage.Check air conditioning performance according to the relevant shop manual if necessary.
6ZF070M1-A o Steering gear box, linkage &
boots/lower arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine off, check for excessive freeplay in the steering wheel. Check the linkage for bends or dam- age. Check the dust boots and ball joints for deterioration, cracks, or dam- age. Replace any damaged parts. 6ZF070N1-A
o Power steering pump, belt and hoses
Check the power steering pump and hoses for leakage and damage. Re-place any damaged or leaking parts immediately. Inspect the power steer- ing belt for evidence of cuts, cracks,excessive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Replace or adjust it if neces- sary.

NOTE: It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an air conditioning system have a coolant concentration of the rec-ommended strength at all times. The use of the air conditioning system when the cooling system is filledwith water only will result in the heater matrix freezing and subse- quently bursting. SG050C1-E Coolant Level The engine coolant level may be ob- served through the side of the plasticcoolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "L" mark, add coolant of the correctconcentration until the level is between the "L" and "F" marks. If the level falls below the "L" mark on a regular basisdespite being topped up, consult a Hyundai dealer.
SG050B1-E Coolant recommendations Only ethylene glycol based coolant with a corrosion inhibitor suited to aluminiumalloy engine components should be used in the cooling system. No further additives or inhibitors should be used.The coolant specific gravity should be checked as prescribed in the mainte- nance schedule to ensure adequatefrost and corrosion protection. In addi- tion, the engine coolant must be re- placed at the specified interval sincethe corrosion inhibitor properties dete- riorate with time. It is important to note that whilst anincrease in the concentration of anti freeze gives an increase in the level of frost protection, a solution which is inexcess of 65% anti freeze will result in reduced frost protection and engine overheating. Therefore the recom-mended concentration of 50% should not be exceeded for general use. The use of methanol based anti freezecompounds may result in engine over- heating and will invalidate the vehicle warranty.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
SG140C2-E Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and run at idle for
several minutes with the refrigera- tion system running at the coldest setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air condi-tioning system inspected by your Hyundai dealer.
! CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning system for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level may damage thecompressor.
SG140A1-E Condenser Ensure that the condenser is periodi- cally inspected and that accumulationsof dirt, dead insects and leaves etc, are removed to ensure that the efficiency of the system is not impaired. Care mustbe exercised to ensure that the con- denser fins are not damaged during cleaning.
SG140B1-E Compressor Drive Belt
0.315 in. (8mm)
The air conditioning compressor drive belt should be checked to ensure free-dom from damage or excessive wear and correct tension. The belt tension is correct when the belt deflects by about0.3 inches (8 mm) when a force of 98 N is applied to the belt halfway between the compressor and crankshaft pul-leys. Adjustment of the belt should be entrusted to a Hyundai dealer.

21CHANGING THE POLLEN FILTER
B145A01A-EAT
(For Evaporator and Blower
Unit) (Not all models) The pollen filter is located in front of the evaporator unit behind the glove box.It helps to decrease pollutants from entering the car.
1. Open the glove box and remove the
adjusting pins on both sides of the glove box. HLC2096-D
SG140D1-E Off Season Maintenance The air conditioning must be run for ten minutes or so weekly during periodswhen the system would not normally be used to ensure that the compressor and seals are lubricated. If this precautionis not observed the compressor seals may become stuck to the compressor shaft and damaged when the system isnext used resulting in a loss of refriger- ant and damage to the compressor.
2. Remove the cable and the wiring
from the filter cover.
3. Remove the filter cover by pushing the upper end of the filter cover. HLC2097-D
HLC2098-D

26ELECTRIC COOLING FANSBATTERY MAINTENANCE
!
!
o If battery electrolyte is spilled onto
skin or into eyes, the effected area must be flushed with copious amounts of water and medical assis- tance sought.
o If battery electrolyte is ingested, copious amounts of water or milkfollowed by an antacid (raw egg ormilk of magnesia) must be drunk. Vomiting should not be induced and medical assistance must be sought.
o Batteries must only be charged in well ventilated areas from which na-ked lights or sources of sparks areexcluded.
o Ensure that children, pets or other
unauthorized persons are kept awayfrom batteries.
o Do not allow anything to bridge the
positive (+) and negative (-) termi-nals of the battery.
o Never invert the battery. The battery fitted during production is of the "Maintenance Free" type.
SG210A1-E
WARNING:
Motor vehicle batteries containsulphuric acid which is corrosive and poisonous. Hydrogen gas isemitted from the battery which is explosive when combined with oxy- gen. The following precautions mustbe strictly observed to avoid per- sonal injury or damage to the ve- hicle. SG220A1-E
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-gine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will auto- matically shut off. This is a normalcondition.
D010B01A
The engine cooling fan should operate before the temperature gauge reaches the upper portion of the scale and thecondenser fan should operate when- ever the air conditioning is in use.
