Checking the Air Conditioning Opera- tion
1. Start the engine and let it run at a fast idle for
several minutes with the air conditioning set at the maximum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air conditioning systeminspected by your Hyundai dealer.
CAUTION: Running the air conditioning system for ex- tended periods of time with a low refrigerantlevel may damage the compressor.
When the air conditioning is being used regu-larly, the compressor drive belt tension shouldbe checked at least once a month. To check the drive belt tension, press down on the belt halfway between the engine crankshaftand compressor pulleys. Pressing with yourfinger, you should not be able to deflect this belt
anymore than 5 - 5.5 mm. If you have theinstruments to check it with a force of 98N (22lb.), the deflection should be approx. 5 - 5.5(0.197 - 0.217 inches). If the belt is too loose,have it adjusted by your Hyundai dealer.
G120D01A-AAT
To Check the Fluid Level The fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should
be checked periodically. The level should bebetween the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on theside of the reservoir. If the level is at or belowthe "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring it upto "MAX". Do not overfill.
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 asealed container. Do not allow the fluid canor reservoir to remain open any longer thanrequired. This will prevent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake sys-tem and cause improper operation.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then
unscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour therecommended fluid into the reservoir. Do notoverfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser-voir and tighten.

G140A01A-AAT
AIR CONDITIONER CARE Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioner condenser (and engine ra-
diator) should be checked periodically for accu- mulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. Thesecan interfere with maximum cooling efficiency.When removing such accumulations, brush orhose them away carefully to avoid bending thecooling fans.

6-14 G200A01A-AAT CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSESReplacing a Fusible Link A fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from the battery are ever overloaded, thus pre-venting damage to the entire wiring harness.(This could be caused by a short in the systemdrawing too much current.) If this ever happens,have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause,repair the system and replace the fusible link.The fusible links are located in a relay box foreasy inspection. CAUTION: When replacing a fusible link, never use anything but a new fusible link with thesame or lower amperage rating. Never use apiece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link.This could result in serious damage andcreate a fire hazard.

CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL
CLEARANCE
SSA6180A
36 mm (1.42 in.)
You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine running, have yourhelper press down on the brake pedal severaltimes and then hold it down with a force of about490N (50kg, 110lbs). The brake pedal clear-ance is the distance from the top surface of thebrake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under thefloor mat. If the brake pedal clearance is not within the limits specified in the illustration, have it in-spected by your Hyundai dealer and adjustedor repaired if necessary.

CHECKING DRIVE BELTS
Water pump pulley
Crankshaft pulley
Drive belts should be checked periodically for
proper tension and adjusted if necessary. At the same time, belts should be examined for cracks,wear, fraying or other evidence of deteriorationand replaced if necessary. Belt routing should also be checked to be sure
there is no interference between the belts andother parts of the engine. After a belt is re-placed, the new belt should be adjusted againafter two or three weeks to eliminate slackresulting from initial stretching after use.
