To Replace the Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification should be used. Thereservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoidcontamination from foreign matter or moisture. NOTE: Do not allow any other liquids to contami- nate the brake fluid. Seal damage will result. WARNING: Use caution when handling brake fluid. It can damage your vision if you get it in youreyes. It will also damage your vehicle's paintif spilled on it and not removed immediately. G140A01A-AAT
AIR CONDITIONING CARE Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and engine radiator) should be checked periodically foraccumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc.These can interfere with maximum cooling effi-ciency. When removing such accumulations,brush or hose them away carefully to avoidbending the cooling fans.
G120D01A-AAT
To Check the Fluid Level
The fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir should
be checked periodically. The level should be between 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 onlyDOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from asealed container. Do not allow the fluid canor reservoir to remain open any longer thanrequired. This will avoid entry of dirt andmoisture which can damage the brake sys-tem and cause improper operation. To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt thenunscrew the fluid reservoir cap. Slowly pour therecommended fluid into the reservoir. Do notoverfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser-voir and tighten. G130A01S-AAT
CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID (Manual Transaxle)To Check the Clutch Fluid
The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when performing other un-der hood services. The system should bechecked for leakage at the same time. Check tomake certain that the clutch fluid level is alwaysbetween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markingson the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid lossindicates a leak in the clutch system whichshould be inspected and repaired immediately.Consult your Hyundai dealer.

G140D01S-GAT Checking the Compressor Drive Belt When the air conditioning is being used regular- ly, the compressor drive belt tension should bechecked 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 beltanymore than 8.0 mm. If you have the instru-ments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.),the deflection should be approx. 8.0 mm (0.315inches). If the belt is too loose, have it adjustedby your Hyundai dealer.A/C

Checking the Air Conditioning Opera- tion
1. Start the engine and let it run at 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
extended periods of time with a low refriger- ant level may damage the compressor.
G140C01A-AAT
Lubrication To lubricate the compressor and the seals in
the system, the air conditioning should be runfor at least 10 minutes each week. This isparticularly important during cool weather whenthe air conditioning system is not otherwise inuse. B760B01GK-GAT

To check the steering wheel freeplay, stop the car with the wheels pointed straight ahead andgently move the steering wheel back and forth.Use very light finger pressure and be sensitiveto changes in resistance that mark the limits ofthe freeplay. If the freeplay is greater thanspecified, have it inspected by your Hyundaidealer and adjusted or repaired if necessary.

CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL CLEARANCE
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 (50 kg, 110 lbs). 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 notwithin the limits specified in the illustration, haveit inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjust-ed or repaired if necessary.

Then, using your hand, press down slowly on the brake pedal until you feel a change inresistance. This is the brake pedal freeplay.The freeplay should be within the limits speci-fied in the illustration. If it is not, have it inspect-ed by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted orrepaired if necessary.

CHECKING DRIVE BELTS
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.

CAUTION: A burned-out fuse indicates that there is a
problem in the electrical circuit. If you re- place a fuse and it blows as soon as theaccessory is turned on, the problem is seri-ous and should be referred to a Hyundaidealer for diagnosis and repair. Never re-place a fuse with anything except a fusewith the same or a lower amperage rating. Ahigher capacity fuse could cause damageand create a fire hazard.
NOTE: See page 6-23 for the fuse panel descrip-
tions.

CHECKING THE BATTERY
WARNING: Batteries can be dangerous! When working
with batteries, carefully observe the follow- ing precautions to avoid serious injuries.
The fluid in the battery contains a strong solu-
tion of sulfuric acid, which is poisonous andhighly corrosive. Be careful not to spill it onyourself or the car. If you do spill battery fluid onyourself, immediately do the following:
o If battery fluid is on your skin, flush the affected areas with water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medical assistance.
o If battery fluid is in your eyes, rinse out your eyes with water and get medical assistanceas soon as possible. While you are beingdriven to get medical assistance, continueto rinse your eyes by using a sponge or softcloth saturated with water.
o If you swallow battery fluid, drink a large quantity of water or milk followed by milk ofmagnesia, eat a raw egg or drink vegetableoil. Get medical assistance as soon aspossible.
While batteries are being charged (either by a
battery charger or by the vehicle's alternator),they produce explosive gases. Always observethese warnings to prevent injuries from occur-ring: 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.
G220B01A-AAT
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.

G240A01A-AAT 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-
