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.
G110D03L-AATChecking the automatic transaxle
fluid levelThe automatic transaxle fluid level should
be checked regularly.
!
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.
HTG5012
Keep the vehicle on the level ground with
the parking brake applied and check the
fluid level according to the following pro-
cedure.
1. Place the selector lever in N (Neutral)
position and confirm the engine is run-
ning at normal idle speed.
2. After the transaxle is warmed up suffi-
ciently (fluid temperature 70~80°C
(158~176°F)), for example by 10 min-
utes usual driving, shift the selector
lever through all positions then place
the selector lever in N (Neutral) or P
(Park) position.

CHECKING THE BRAKES!
G120B01A-AATChecking the Brake Fluid Level
WARNING:Use caution when handling brake fluid. It
can damage your vision if it gets into
your eyes. It will also damage your
vehicle's paint if spilled on it and not
removed immediately.
!
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may some-
times operate even when the engine is
not running. Use extreme caution when
working near the blades of the cooling
fan so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant
temperature decreases, the fan will au-
tomatically shut off. This is a normal
condition.
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
G120A01A-AAT
CAUTION:
Because brakes are essential to the
safe operation of the car, it is suggested
that they be checked and inspected by
your Hyundai dealer. The brakes should
be checked and inspected for wear at
those intervals specified in the vehicle
maintenance schedule in Section 5.
!
3. Confirm that the fluid level is in “HOT”
range on the level gauge. If the fluid
level is lower, add the specified fluid
from the fill hole. If the fluid level is
higher, drain the fluid from the drain
hole.
4. If the fluid level is checked in cold con-
dition (fluid temperature 20~30°C
(68~86°F)) add the fluid to “COLD” line
and then recheck the fluid level accord-
ing to the above step 2.

G120D01A-AATTo Check the Fluid LevelThe fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir
should be checked periodically. The level
should be between the "MIN" and "MAX"
marks on the side of the reservoir. If the
level is at or below the "MIN" mark, care-
fully add fluid to bring it up to "MAX". Do not
overfill.G120C02A-AATRecommended Brake FluidUse only hydraulic brake fluid conforming
to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications in your
braking system. Follow the instructions
printed on the container.
!
G120E02A-AATAdding Brake Fluid
WARNING:Handle brake fluid carefully. It can dam-
age your vision if it gets into your eyes.
Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification
fluid from a sealed container. Do not
allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain
open any longer than required. This will
prevent 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 recommended fluid into the res-
ervoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the
cap on the reservoir and tighten.

CAUTION:
An open fuse indicates that there is a
problem in the electrical circuit. If you
replace a fuse and it blows as soon as the
accessory is turned on, the problem is
serious and should be referred to a
Hyundai dealer for diagnosis and repair.
Never replace a fuse with anything ex-
cept a fuse with the same or a lower
amperage rating. A higher capacity fuse
could cause damage and create a fire
hazard.NOTE:See page 6-33 for the fuse panel descrip-
tions.
G200C01CM-GATPower ConnectorNOTE:
o If the power connector is pulled up
from the fuse panel, the warning chime,
audio, clock and interior lamps, etc.,
will not operate. The following items
must be reset after replacement.
- Digital Clock
- Trip computer
- Automatic heating and cooling con-
trol system
- Audio
o Even though the power connector is
pulled up, the battery can still be dis-
charged by operation of the head-
lights or other electrical devices.
Your vehicle is equipped with a power
connector to prevent battery discharge if
your vehicle is parked without being oper-
ated for prolonged periods. Use the follow-
ing procedures before parking the vehicle
for prolonged periods.
1. Turn off the engine.

CHECKING THE BATTERY!
G210A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Batteries can be dangerous! When work-
ing with batteries, carefully observe the
following precautions to avoid serious
injuries.
The fluid in the battery contains a strong
solution of sulfuric acid, which is poison-
ous and highly corrosive. Be careful not to
spill it on yourself or the car. If you do spill
battery fluid on yourself, immediately do
the following:
OTG059400
!
G210B05A-AATChecking the BatteryKeep the battery clean. Any evidence of
corrosion around the battery posts or ter-
minals should be removed using a solu-
tion of household baking soda and warm
water. After the battery terminals are dry,
cover them with a light coating of grease.
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds, chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects
and reproductive harm. Batteries also
contain other chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer. Wash
hands after handling. o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the
affected areas with water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assis-
tance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out
your eyes with water and get medical
assistance as soon as possible. While
you are being driven to get medical
assistance, continue to rinse your eyes
by using a sponge or soft cloth satu-
rated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large
quantity of water or milk followed by milk
of magnesia, eat a raw egg or drink
vegetable oil. Get medical assistance
as soon as possible.
While batteries are being charged (either
by a battery charger or by the vehicle's
generator), they produce explosive gases.
Always observe these warnings to prevent
injuries from occurring:
o Charge batteries only in a well venti-
lated area.
o Do not permit flames, sparks or smok-
ing in the area.
o Keep children away from the area.

WARNING:Always read the following in-
structions carefully when han-
dling a battery.
Keep lighted cigarettes and all
other flames or sparks away
from the battery.
Hydrogen, which is a highly
combustible gas, is always
present in battery cells and
may explode if ignited.
Keep batteries out of the reach
of children because batteries
contain highly corrosive SUL-
FURIC ACID. Do not allow bat-
tery acid to contact your skin,
eyes, clothing or paint finish.
o When lifting a plastic-cased battery,
excessive pressure on the case may
cause battery acid to leak, resulting in
personal injury. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on opposite
corners.
o Never attempt to charge the battery
when the battery cables are con-
nected.
o The electrical ignition system works
with high voltage.

WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may some-
times operate even when the engine is
not running. Use extreme caution when
working near the blades of the cooling
fan, so that you are not injured by a
rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant
temperature decreases the fan will au-
tomatically shut off. This is a normal
condition.G220B01NF-GATChecking Engine Cooling FanThe engine cooling fan should come on
automatically if the engine coolant tem-
perature is high or whenever the air con-
ditioning is in operation.
G240A01A-AATPOWER STEERING HOSESIt is suggested that you check the power
steering hose connections for fluid leak-
age at those intervals specified in the ve-
hicle maintenance schedule in Section 5.
The power steering hoses should be re-
placed if there is severe surface cracking,
pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora-
tion of the hose could cause premature
failure.NOTE:Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after
the engine is started in extremely cold
conditions (below - 4°F). If the noise stops
during warm up, there is no abnormal
function in the system. It is due to a
power steering fluid characteristic in
extremely cold conditions.
Recommended FluidUse PSF-4 type fluidNOTE:Do not start the engine when the power
steering oil reservoir is empty.
