DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
6-12 While the engine is idling, apply the brakes and move the gear selector lever from "P" to eachof its other positions — "R", "N", "D" — andthen return to "N" or "P". With the engine stillidling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any movingparts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far as it will go, thenremove it again. Now check the fluid level onthe dipstick. It should be in the "HOT" rangeon the dipstick.
3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use a funnel to add transaxle fluid through the dipsticktube until the level reaches the "HOT" range.Do not overfill. WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool- ant temperature and may sometimes oper-ate even when the engine is not running.Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan, so that you are notinjured by a rotating fan blade. As the en-gine coolant temperature decreases, the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normalcondition.Fluid level should be within this range

To Check the Transaxle Fluid Level
HGK174
Park the car on level ground with the parking
brake engaged. When the transaxle fluid level is checked, the transaxle fluid should be atnormal operating temperature and the engineidling.

Transaxle Fluid Capacity
The fluid capacity of the automatic transaxle is
7.8 liters (8.2 U.S. quarts).
WARNING: The transaxle fluid level should be checked
when the engine is at normal operating tem- perature. This means that the engine, radia-tor, exhaust system etc., are very hot. Exer-cise great care not to burn yourself duringthis procedure.

POWER STEERING HOSES It is suggested that you check the power steer-
ing hose connections for fluid leakage daily. The power steering hoses should be replaced ifthere is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuff-ing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hosecould cause premature failure. G250A01A-AAT
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR HYUNDAI
If you desire additional information about main- taining and servicing your Hyundai, you maypurchase a factory Shop Manual at your Hyundaidealer's parts department. This is the samemanual used by dealership technicians andwhile it is highly technical it can be useful inobtaining a better understanding of your carand how it works.

POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
The power steering fluid level should be checked
regularly.
To check the power steering fluid level, be sure
the ignition is "OFF", then check to make cer-tain that the power steering fluid level is be-tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings onthe fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering
pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi-tions (below - 20°F). If the noise stops dur-

Checking Condenser Cooling Fan
The condenser coolant fan should come on
automatically whenever the air conditioning is in operation. ing warm up, there is no abnormal functionin the system. It is due to a power steeringfluid characteristic in extremely cold condi-tions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir is empty.
G210B01A-AAT
Checking the Battery Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corro-
sion around the battery posts or terminals shouldbe removed using a solution of household bak-ing soda and warm water. After the batteryterminals are dry, cover them with a light coat-ing of grease.
G220A01A-AAT
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS WARNING: The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool-
ant temperature and may sometimes oper- ate even when the engine is not running.Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the coolant fan, so that you are notinjured by a rotating fan blade. As the cool-ant temperature decreases the fan will auto-matically shut off. This is a normal condi-tion.

Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine coolant fan should come on auto-
matically if the engine coolant temperature ishigh.
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.

tem
The positive crankcase ventilation system is
employed to prevent air pollution caused by H010A01A-GAT
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS (If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with an emission
control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibition rules of your province.
There are three emission control systems which
are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system(3) Exhaust emission control system In order to assure the proper function of the
emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your car inspected and main-tained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in ac-cordance with the maintenance schedule in thismanual. H010C01F-GAT
2. Evaporative Emission Control Sys-
tem (If Installed)
The evaporative emission control system is
designed to prevent fuel vapors from escapinginto the atmosphere. Canister
While the engine is inoperative, fuel vapors
generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine is
running, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canis-ter are drawn into the induction system throughthe purge control solenoid valve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve
The purge control solenoid valve is controlled
by the ECM; when the engine coolant tempera- ture is low, and during idling, it closes, so that
evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine.After engine warm-up, during ordinary driving, itopens so as to introduce evaporated fuel to theengine. H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control System
The exhaust emission control system is a high-
ly effective system which controls exhaust emis-sions while maintaining good vehicleperformace.

The radiator cap mustonly be removed when the engine has cooled.Do not add cold water to a hot engine to avoidthe possibility of engine damage. The use ofplain water in the cooling system is not rec-ommended since the aluminium componentsof the cooling system require the use of acorrosion inhibitor found in the recommendedEthylene Glycol type anti freeze solutions.
The engine coolant temperature gauge indicatesthe engine coolant temperature and will, undernormal circumstances, give an indication in the"Normal" or centre portion of the scale. Shouldthe indication move into the upper or "Hot" por-tion of the scale, engine overheating is indicated.Under these circumstances, the vehicle shouldbe brought to rest as soon as is safe to do so andthe engine turned off. Once the engine has cooledsomewhat, the coolant level and the condition ofthe generator/water pump drive belt should bechecked. If the cause of the overheating cannotbe readily established, the assistance of aHyundai dealer should be sought. WARNING: The engine cooling system is pressurizedand removal of the radiator cap when the The tachometer registers the speed of the enginein revolutions per minute (R.P.M.). CAUTION: The maximum safe engine operating speed isindicated by the white zone of the tachometerscale.

o When driving in extreme conditions, the
windscreen wiper blades may fail to clear the screen properly due to the formation ofice upon the blade edge. It will therefore benecessary to periodically remove such iceto restore their efficiency.
o If the power operated door mirrors become frozen, attempts to adjust these may dam-age the mechanism.
o The formation of snow or ice built up inside the wheel arches may interfere with the roadwheels or steering mechanism. In such in-stances, unusual noises or an increase insteering effort may result. Therefore, ensurethat the wheel arches are checked periodi-cally and any accumulated snow or iceremoved.
o It is advisable to carry emergency equip- ment including, torch, shovel, tow rope, blan-kets etc., if a journey is to be undertaken intoareas of severe road conditions.

Door Locks
Should the door lock mechanism become fro-
zen, a proprietary lock de-icer should be used.Alternatively, warming the door key may thawthe door lock. However, the key should behandled carefully to avoid burning the fingers.
Never attempt to thaw a frozen door lock using
hot water, since the water will eventually freezeand compound the problem.
NOTE:The proper temperature for using the immo-
bilizer key is from -40°F (-40°C) to 176°F(80°C). If you heat the immobilizer key over176°F (80°C) to open the frozen lock, it maycause damage to the transponder in its head. SC170E1-E Windscreen Washers and Wipers
The windscreen washer bottle should be filled
with a solution of water and a proprietary winter screen wash additive. The windscreen wipersshould not be used if the blades are frozen tothe windscreen or if they are covered withsnow, before this is removed.
NOTE: Never allow undiluted screen washer fluid
additive to spill upon the paintwork or use engine coolant anti-freeze since damage tothe paintwork may result.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
3-2 4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is
missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If the drive belt seems to be satisfac-tory, check for coolant leaking from the radia-tor, hoses or under the car. (If the air condi-tioning had been in use, it is normal for coldwater to be draining from it).
WARNING:Whilst the engine is running, keep hands andclothing away from moving parts such as thefan and drive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is broken or coolant is leaking out, stop the engine imme- diately and call the nearest Hyundai dealerfor assistance.
WARNING:Do not remove the radiator cap when theengine is hot since steam and boiling watermay be ejected from the radiator resulting inburns or scalding.
6. If the cause of the overheating cannot be found, wait until the engine temperature has returned to normal. Then, if coolant has beenlost, carefully remove the radiator cap andadd water to bring the fluid level in the reser-voir up to the base of the radiator fill opening.Fill the coolant expansion tank to the halfwaymark.
WARNING:Motor vehicle batteries contain sulphuric acidand emit hydrogen gas. Protective clothingshould be worn and care exercised to preventthe acid from coming into contact with skin orclothing and the vehicle. Naked lights shouldnot be permitted in the vicinity of the battery.Care should be exercised to prevent sparksoccurring during connection. If acid acciden-tally comes into contact with skin or eyes, theaffected area should immediately be flushedwith copious amounts of water and medicalassistance sought.
1. Ensure that the booster battery is 12 volt type.
If the booster battery is installed in another vehicle, ensure that the two vehicles are nottouching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary electrical equipment in both vehicles.
3. Ensure that the engine of the vehicle provid- ing the jump start is running prior to connec-tion of the jump cables.
4. Connect the red jump cable to the positive (+) terminal of the booster battery and the otherend to the positive (+) terminal of the dis-charged battery.
5. Attach the black jump cable to the negative (-) terminal of the booster battery, and theother end to a ground point within the enginecompartment of the vehicle with the flat bat-tery. Do not connect to the negative batteryterminal of the flat battery since sparks maybe generated with the subsequent risk ofexplosion. 6. Raise the booster vehicle engine speed to
2,000 r.p.m. and start the engine of the vehi-cle with the flat battery.
7. Remove jump cables in the reverse order of installation (black cable first).
CAUTION:If the jump cable is incorrectly installed, dam-age to the vehicle electrical system may oc-cur, in particular the electronic componentssuch as the Fuel Injection system computerand the Automatic Transaxle computer. Thebattery must never be disconnected whilstthe engine is running. SD040A1-E IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATSIf the temperature gauge indicates overheating:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- matic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on,turn it off.
3. If coolant is running out under the car or steam is coming out from under the bonnetstop the engine. Do not open the bonnet untilthe coolant has stopped running or the steam-ing has stopped. If there is no visible loss ofcoolant and no steam, leave the engine run-ning and check to be sure the engine coolingfan is operating.If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
