OWNER MAINTENANCE 6-11
Use only the approved transmission lubricant. The recommended lubricants are complete in themselves and the use of additives is neither required nor recommended. The use of additives may invalidate the vehicle warranty. Transmission Lubricant Level Checking
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on level ground with the parking brake firmly applied and the engine cool. Remove the level plug from the transmission when lubricant should begin to drip from the level hole. If the level is low and no lubricant is seen to drip, add the required quantity of lubricant and replace the plug.
SG110A1-E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID The automatic transmission fluid level should be checked and changed at those intervals pre- scribed in the maintenance schedule. It is of paramount importance that only the specified fluid is used when replenishing or changing the fluid. The use of other fluids may irreparably damage the transmission and invalidate the manufacturers warranty. In addition the ingress of dirt or lint may prevent correct functioning of the transmission and care must be exercised to prevent the ingress of such matter. CAUTION: The transmission fluid level must be checked with the engine running and at normal oper- ating temperature and therefore care must be exercised to prevent injury occurring through contact with rotating or hot parts of the en- gine. G110B03A-AAT Recommended Fluid Your Hyundai automatic transaxle is specially designed to operate with DIAMOND ATF SP-
III,
SK ATF SP- III.
Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid is not covered by your new vehicle limited warranty. G110D02GK-EAT Transmission fluid level checking The vehicle must be parked on level ground with the parking brake firmly applied and the engine at normal operating temperature. (Normal operat- ing temperature will only be achieved when the vehicle has been driven for 6 miles or more). With the engine idling and the footbrake applied, the transmission selector should be moved from the "P" position through to the "L" position and back to the "N" or "P" position. Open the bonnet and remove the transmission dipstick, remembering that care must be exer- cised to prevent injury occurring through contact with hot or rotating parts of the engine. Wipe the dipstick, replace it fully and promptly remove it again. The fluid level should be be- tween the upper and lower marks. Fluid need only be added if the level is at or below the lower mark and must never be increased above the

6-12 SG120A1-E BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKING CAUTION: Correct operation of the braking system is essential to the safe operation of the vehicle and therefore, any maintenance operations other than those listed below should be en- trusted to a Hyundai dealer. SG120C2-E Brake Fluid Recommendations Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications or higher may be used in the braking system. Care should be taken to ob- serve the instructions and precautions printed upon the container. SG120D1-E Brake 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, fluid should be added having care- fully cleaned the area surrounding the reservoir cap to ensure that dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be borne in mind that the brake fluid level will decrease slightly as the friction linings of the pads and shoes become worn and that this is a normal condition.
higher mark. If additional fluid is required, thisshould be poured into the transmission through the dipstick tube with the aid of a suitable funnel. WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool- ant temperature and may sometimes 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 automati- cally shut off. This is a normal condition.
CAUTION:The automatic transmission unit is a preci- sion engineered assembly and correct op- eration is dependant upon the exclusion of dirt and lint from the unit. Therefore, it is imperative that only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used for wiping the dipstick and that the area around the dipstick is thoroughly clean prior to level checking or adding fluid. Fluid Capacity The total fluid capacity of the transmission unit is 7.8 litres.

6-18 NOTE: Grinding noise from power steering pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condition (below -20°C). In this case, if the noise stops during warm up, there is no abnormal function in the system. This is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold conditions. FLUID RECOMMENDATION
Only automatic transmission fluid meeting the specification of PSF-3 should be used in the power steering system.
SG230A1-E POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL The power steering fluid level should be checked daily. To check the power steering fluid level, be sure the ignition is "OFF", then check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.
SG250A2-E REPLACING HEADLIGHT BULBS In the event of bulb failure being experienced, ensure that the relative lighting circuit is turned off prior to attempting to replace the bulb. The illustrations on the following pharagraph will as- sist in locating and removing the headlight bulbs. Ensure that the replacement bulb has the same cap configuration and wattage as the original.
SG230B1-E POWER STEERING HOSES Power steering hoses should be checked for damage, deterioration and leakage at each ser- vice.
The engine cooling fan should operate before the temperature gauge reaches the upper portion of the scale and the condenser fan should operate whenever the air conditioning is in use.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the bulb
base in the back of the headlight.
4. Remove the dust cover.
5. Push the bulb spring for removing the head- light bulb.
6. Remove the protective cap from the replace- ment bulb and install the new bulb by match-ing the plastic base with the headlight hole. Install the dust cover after retightening the bulb spring and reconnect the power cord.
7. Use the protective cap and carton to dispose
