Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Ad-ditional corrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system must be main-tained with the correct concentration and typeof engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro-sion. Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% levelor damage to the coolant system may result. Forproper concentration when adding or replacingthe coolant, refer to the following table.

The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the cool-ant should be between the "LOW" and "FULL"lines on the reservoir when the engine is cold.If the level is below the "LOW" mark, addengine coolant to bring it up between "LOW"and "FULL". If the level is low, inspect forcoolant leaks and recheck the fluid level fre-quently. If the level drops again, visit yourHyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosisof the reason. G050D02A-AAT

2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allowall the engine coolant to drain from thecooling system, then securely close the draincock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then, followingthe manufacturer's directions on the enginecoolant container, add the appropriate quan-tity of engine coolant to the radiator.

The spark plugs should be changed at the
intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5 or whenever engine per-formance indicates they should be changed.Symptoms that suggest poor spark plug perfor-mance include engine misfiring under load, lossof fuel economy, poor acceleration, etc. Whenspark plugs are replaced, always use sparkplugs recommended by Hyundai. The use ofother spark plugs can result in loss of perfor-mance, radio interference or engine damage.

The fluid in the battery contains a strong solu-
tion of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it onyourself or the car. If you do spill battery fluid onyourself, immediately do the following:
o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medical assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and get medical assistanceas soon as possible. While you are beingdriven to get medical assistance, continueto rinse your eyes by using a sponge or softcloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk followed by milk ofmagnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetableoil. Get medical assistance as soon aspossible.
While batteries are being charged (either by abattery charger or by the vehicle's alternator),they produce explosive gases. Always observethese warnings to prevent injuries from occur-ring:
o Charge batteries only in a well ventilated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smoking in the area.
o Keep children away from the area. G210B01A-AAT

1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct pres-
sure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press the front bumper & rear bumper down sev- eral times. Place the vehicle at a distance of3,000 mm (118 in.) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant, engine oil and fuel, andspare tire, jack, and tools). Have the driveror equivalent weight placed in driver's seat.

It is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage at those intervals specified in the vehicle maintenanceschedule in Section 5.
The power steering hoses should be replaced if
there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hosecould cause premature failure.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
ZD050B1-E
Handling Spare Tyre
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be
found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant hasbeen lost, carefully remove the radiator capand add water to bring the fluid level in thereservoir up to the base of the radiator fill
opening. Fill the coolant expansion tank tothe halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution until it is established that the engine is operating normally. If theengine overheats repeatedly, the advice of aHyundai dealer should be sought.
CAUTION: Serious loss of coolant indicates there is aleak in the cooling system and this shouldbe checked as soon as possible by a Hyundaidealer. 3. Passengers must not be allowed to remain
inside the vehicle during wheel changing. Ifa puncture occurs whilst the vehicle is on amotorway, the passengers should take ref-uge on the motorway embankment to avoidthe possibility of injury occurring should thevehicle be struck by other motorway traffic.
4. Wheel changing should be performed ac- cording to the following instructions.
ZD050A1-E
FULL-SIZED SPARE TYRE For customer convenience and satisfaction,Hyundai has included a full-sized spare tyreand wheel. The following instructions should be observed.
1. Check inflation pressure as soon as possi- ble after installing the spare tyre, and adjust to the specified pressure.
2. The spare tyre pressure should be checked once a month while the tyre is stored.
Spare Tyre Pressure (cold)

Remove the installation bolt to remove the spare
tyre. To install the spare tyre, tighten the bolt firmly with your fingers until the spare tyre hasno more play.
SD060A1-E
IN THE EVENT OF A PUNCTURE
If a puncture occurs whilst driving the vehicle:
1. Bring the car to rest as soon as it is safe to do so and with the minimum amount ofbraking required which will assist in main-taining the maximum amount of control. Thevehicle should be parked wherever possibleupon firm level ground to facilitate wheelchanging.
2. If the vehicle is creating a hazard and the road conditions do not permit the wheel tobe changed safely, assistance should besought. SD070A1-E
CHANGING A FLAT TYRE
D060A01X
It is of the utmost importance that care is
exercised when changing road wheels. Ensure that the parking brake is set and that the gearshift lever is in reverse (P, if the vehicle hasautomatic transaxle).

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
5-6 F070B01A-GAT
o Cooling SystemCheck the cooling system part, such as radia-
tor, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections for leakage and damage. Replace any dam-aged parts.
F070C01A-AAT
o Engine coolant The coolant should be changed at the intervals
specified in the maintenance schedule.
F070D01X-GAT
o Manual or semi-automatic transaxle
oil
Inspect the manual or semi-automatic transaxle
oil according to the maintenance schedule.
NOTE: If the oil level is low, check for possible
leaks before adding oil. Do not overfill.
F070E01X-AAT
o Automatic transaxle fluidThe fluid level should be in the “HOT” range of
the dipstick, after engine and transaxle are at
normal operating temperature. Check the Auto-matic Transaxle Fluid level with the engine
running and the transaxle in neutral, with theparking brake properly applied. Use ESSOJWS3314 when adding or changing fluid. F070F01A-AAT o Brake hoses and linesVisually check for proper installation, chafing, cracks, deterioration and any leakage. Replaceany deteriorated or damaged parts immediate-ly. F070G02A-AAT
o Brake fluid Check brake fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir. The level should be between "MIN" and"MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. Use only hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4. F070H01A-AAT
o Rear brake drums/linings, parking
brake
Check the rear brake drums and linings for
scoring, burning, leaking fluid, broken parts,and excessive wear. Inspect the parking brake
system including the parking brake lever andcables. For detailed service procedures, referto the Shop Manual. F070J01A-AAT
o Brake pads, calipers and rotorsCheck the pads for excessive wear, discs for run out and wear, and calipers for fluid leakage. F070K01A-AAT
o Exhaust pipe and mufflerVisually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for cracks, deterioration, or damage.Start the engine and listen carefully for any
exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections orreplace parts as necessary. F070L01A-AAT
o Suspension mounting bolts Check the suspension connections for loose- ness or damage. Retighten to the specifiedtorque. F070M01A-AAT
o Steering gear box, linkage & boots/
lower arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine off, check for excessive free-play in the steering wheel.Check the linkage for bends or damage. Check
the dust boots and ball joints for deterioration,cracks, or damage. Replace any damagedparts. F070N01A-AAT
o Power steering pump, belt and hos-
es
Check the power steering pump and hoses for leakage and damage. Replace any damagedor leaking parts immediately. Inspect the powersteering belt for evidence of cuts, cracks, ex-cessive wear, oiliness and proper tension.Replace or adjust it if necessary.
