ZD070F1-E 3. Loosen Wheel Nuts
The wheel nuts should be loosened slightly before raising the car. To loosenthe nuts, turn the wrench handle coun- terclockwise. When doing this, be sure that the socket is seated completelyover the nut so it cannot slip off. For maximum leverage, position the wrench so the handle is to the right asshown in the drawing. Then, whilst holding the wrench near the end of the handle, pull up on it with steady pres-sure. Do not remove the nuts at this time. Just loosen them about one-half turn. D060E01A-AAT 4. Put the Jack in Place The base of the jack should be placed on firm, level ground. The jack shouldbe positioned as shown in the illustra- tion.

SD070G1-E 5. Raising the Car
After inserting a wrench bar into the wheel nut wrench, install the wrenchbar into the jack as shown in the draw- ing. As the jack begins to raise the vehicle, double check that it is properlypositioned and will not slip. If the jack is on soft ground or sand, it may be necessary to place a stout piece oftimber under the base of the jack to prevent it from sinking. Raise the car high enough so that thefully inflated spare tyre can be in- stalled.

!WARNING:
Do not get under the car when it is supported by the jack! The jack is solely designed for wheel chang- ing and is not intended to supportthe vehicle for other purposes. The use of purpose designed supports is necessary whilst the vehicle israised and the operator is required to get underneath.
Loosen the wheel nuts and remove them with your fingers. slide the wheel off the studs and lay it flat so it cannot roll away. To put the wheel on the hub,pick up the spare tyre, line up the holes with the studs and slide the wheel onto them. If this is difficult, tip the wheelslightly and get the top hole in the wheel lined up with the top stud. Then jiggle the wheel back and forth until thewheel can be slid over the other studs.

ZE020C1-E INTERIOR During the winter period, it is possible that the carpet within the passengercompartment may become wet. The carpet should not be allowed to remain in this condition for prolonged periodssince the carpet may begin to create musty smells and promote internal corrosion of the floorpan. GKE050A2-E Regular cleaning of the exterior paintwork serves two important func- tions. Firstly, the removal of abrasive dirt and contaminants will maintain thelustre of the paintwork and will prevent discolouration and dulling due to pro- longed contact.Secondly, the presence of damage through impact or abrasion will be ap- parent allowing early rectification to bemade thus preventing corrosion from becoming established and spreading beneath the paint film. To avoid "waterspotting" the vehicle should not be washed in direct sunlight particularly in the case of vehicles having dark bodycolours. The heat from the sun rays is absorbed by the paint film increasing the surface temperature. This actioncauses water used for washing to evaporate quickly leaving behind the deposits from the water and the sham-poo used.Use only a shampoo intended for thepurpose and ensure that the body workis thoroughly wet to soften the dirt film prior to removal. After removing the dirt film with a softsponge, the body work should be thor- oughly rinsed and then dried with a good quality chamois leather to pre-vent streaking or spotting of the paint work. Household detergents, solvents andabrasive cleaning materials should not be used in order to avoid damaging the paint film.High pressure car washes may cause water to enter your car. Plastic wheel covers should be cleanedusing a sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels should be cleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent. Abrasivecompounds must not be used since in the event of these damaging the lac- quer coating, oxidisation of the alu-minium wheel will occur, spoiling the appearance. The use of a toothbrush will facilitatecleaning between the wheel "spokes".

JE100A1-E Seat Belts Seat belts should be cleaned only with a mild soap solution. Strong deter- gents, solvents or bleaches may dam- age the belt webbing and thereforereduce the effectiveness of the belt. Belts which display signs of fraying, wear or cuts should be replaced.
JE110A1-E The soft trim and carpets should be maintained with the regular use of a vacuum cleaner. Heavy soiling should be removed with a dry cleaning agentrecommended for this purpose follow- ing the instructions of the product manufacturer. Paint thinner, solventsor other such cleaning materials should not be used since damage to the up- holstery may result.
JE120A1-E Windows A proprietary glass cleaner should be used to clean the inside of the win-dows. However, the rear heated windscreen must only be cleaned us- ing a light horizontal cleaning action.Care should be exercised to avoid the use of abrasive cleaners or contact with items of jewellery which may dam-age the heating elements.
Fine leather needs care. This care, aswith all fine things, need not be elabo-rate, but should include cleaning when necessary. Washing leather thoroughly with soap and water will keep yourleather lustrous, beautiful and ensure you have many years of wear. Take a piece of cheese cloth and usingany mild soap and lukewarm water, work up a good lather. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe clean with aslightly damp cloth and dry with soft cloth. Do this as often as the leather becomes soiled.During tanning operations, sufficient oils are incorporated through process- ing that none need be applied duringthe life of the leather. Oil applied to the finished surface will in no way help the leather and may do more harm thangood. Varnished and furniture polishes should NEVER be used under any conditions.
YE010A1-E To Clean Leather Upholstery (Not all models) In the normal course of use, leather upholstered surfaces will, like any material, pick-up dust and dirt. This dust and dirt MUST be cleaned off or itmay work into the surface of the leather, causing damage.

CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking
system is essential to the safe operation of the vehicle and there- fore, any maintenance operationsother than those listed below should be entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer.
!WARNING:
The electric engine cooling fan au-
tomatically switches on and off ac- cording to engine temperature. Be careful to keep away from the fan during this check as it may switchon at any time.
NOTE: Only lint free cloth should be used for wiping the dipstick. The pres- ence of lint within the transaxle may cause problems with the nor- mal function of the transaxle. The fluid level in the brake fluid reser-
voir 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 belowthe "MIN" mark, fluid should be added having carefully cleaned the area sur- rounding the reservoir cap to ensurethat dirt is not allowed to enter the system. It should be noted will de- crease slightly as the friction linings ofthe pads and shoes become worn and that this is a normal condition.

FUSIBLE LINKS
SG200A1-E The fusible link prevents damage to the wiring harness in the event of an electrical system malfunction. Failureof a fusiblelink is indicative of a seri- ous overload condition having oc- curred and therefore the electricalsystem should be checked by a Hyundai authorised repairer before a replacement link is fitted. WARNING:
Under no circumstances should a
fusible link be replaced with any-thing other than a new link of thesame rating. The use of higher rated links or other means of con- necting the circuit will create apotential fire hazard.
