MAINTENANCE PRECAU-
TIONS
!
G020D01TG-GATImproper or incomplete service may result
in problems. This section gives instruc-
tions only for the maintenance items that
are easy to perform.
Several procedures should be done by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.NOTE:Improper owner maintenance during the
warranty period may affect warranty
coverage.
WARNING:
o Performing maintenance work on a
vehicle can be dangerous. You can be
seriously injured while performing
some maintenance procedures. If you
lack sufficient knowledge and experi-
ence or the proper tools and equip-
ment to do the work, have it done by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Working under the hood with the en-
gine running is dangerous. It becomes
even more dangerous when you wear
jewelry or loose clothing. These can
become entangled in moving parts
and result in injury. Therefore, if you
must run the engine while working
under the hood, make certain that you
remove all jewelry (especially rings,
bracelets, watches, and necklaces)
and all neckties, scarves, and similar
loose clothing before getting near the
engine or cooling fans.

engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the
engine coolant is under pressure and
may erupt through the opening if the cap
is removed. You could be seriously
burned if you do not observe this precau-
tion. Do not remove the radiator cap until
the radiator is cool to the touch.
!
NOTE:o It is recommended that the engine oil
and filter should be changed by an
authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Always dispose of used engine oil in
an environmentally acceptable man-
ner. It is suggested that it be placed in
a sealed container and taken to a
service station for reclamation. Do
not pour the oil on the ground or put it
into the household trash.

mals. Always protect your skin by wash-
ing your hands thoroughly with soap and
warm water as soon as possible after
handling used oil.

G110B05A-AATRecommended Fluid
Your Hyundai automatic transaxle is spe-
cially designed to operate with HYUNDAI
GENUINE ATF SP III, DIAMOND ATF SP III,
SK ATF SP III or other brands meeting the
SP III specification approved by Hyundai
Motor Co.. Damage caused by a
nonspecified fluid is not covered by your
new vehicle limited warranty.
CAUTION:
Use of aftermarket ATF additives may
cause damage to the automatic
transaxle.
Only use HYUNDAI GENUINE ATF SP III,
DIAMOND ATF SP III, SK ATF SP III or
other brands meeting the SP III specifi-
cation approved by Hyundai Motor Co..
If you are having your vehicle serviced
at a facility other than a Hyundai dealer,
verify that the correct ATF is used for
your vehicle.
G110D02O-AATTo Check the Transaxle Fluid LevelPark the car on level ground with the park-
ing brake engaged. When the transaxle
fluid level is checked, the transaxle fluid
should be at normal operating tempera-
ture and the engine idling.
While the engine is idling, apply the brakes
and move the gear selector lever from "P"
to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D"
— and then return to "N" or "P". With the
engine still idling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to keep
hands, long hair and clothing clear of
any moving parts.
!
G110C01TG-AATTransaxle Fluid CapacityThe fluid capacity of the automatic
transaxle is 11.52 U.S. quarts (10.9 liters).
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at normal
operating temperature. This means that
the engine, radiator, radiator hose, ex-
haust system etc., are very hot. Exer-
cise great care not to burn yourself dur-
ing this procedure.

CONSUMER INFORMATION, REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS & BINDING ARBITRATION OF WARRANTY CLAIMS

Traction AA, A, B, C - The traction
grades, from highest to lowest, are AA,
A, B, and C. Those grades represent
the tire's ability to stop on wet pave-
ment as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction per-
formance.
!
WARNING:
The traction grade assigned to this
tire is based on straight-ahead brak-
ing traction tests, and does not in-
clude acceleration, cornering, hy-
droplaning, or peak traction charac-
teristics.
I130B04A-AATTire Quality Grading
Department of Transportation quality
grades - All passenger vehicle tires
must conform to Federal Safety Stan-
dards in addition to these grades. These
quality grades are molded on the
sidewall.
Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based on the wear
rate of the tire when tested under con-
trolled conditions on a specified gov-
ernment test course. For example, a
tire graded 150 would wear one and a
half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to varia-
tions in driving habits, service prac-
tices and differences in road character-
istics and climate.
CONSUMER INFORMATIONI130A01A-AATThis consumer information has been pre-
pared in accordance with regulations is-
sued by the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration of the U.S. Department of
Transportation. It provides the purchasers
and/or prospective purchasers of Hyundai
automobiles with information on uniform
tire quality grading. Your Hyundai dealer
