o The engine oil consumption is strongly effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. More engine oil may be consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds, frequent acceleration and deceleration, compared to normaldriving condition. G050B01A-AAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a 50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Addi-tional corrosion inhibitors or additives should not be used. The cooling sys- tem must be maintained with the cor-rect concentration and type of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro- sion. Never allow the concentration ofantifreeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result. Forproper concentration when adding or replacing the engine coolant, refer to the following table.

The wiper blades should be carefully
inspected from time to time and cleaned to remove accumulations ofroad film or other debris. To clean the wiper blades and arms, use a clean sponge or cloth with a mild soap ordetergent and water. If the wipers continue to streak or smear the glass, replace them with Genuine HyundaiReplacement Parts or their equiva- lent.
! CAUTION:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass. This can result in more rapid wear of the wiper bladesand may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline etc.
o When the wiper blade is freezed in winter or the washer fluidreservoir is empty, the wiper may not operate for ten minutes.This isn't a mechanical troublebut the function protecting thewiper by operating circuit breaker inside of the wiper mo- tor.

15CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE OIL (MANUAL)
G100A01MC-GAT
Transaxle lubricant in the manual transaxle should be checked at those intervals specified in the vehicle main-tenance schedule in Section 5.
!WARNING:
It is always better to check the
transaxle oil level when the engine is cool or cold. If the engine is hot, you should exercise great caution to avoid burning yourself on hotengine or exhaust parts.
NOTE: It is recommended that the manual
transaxle fluid should be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE FLUID (AUTOMATIC)
G110A01MC-AAT Transaxle fluid in the automatic transaxle should be checked at those intervals specified in the vehicle main-tenance schedule in Section 5. NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is basi- cally a red color. As driving dis- tance increases, the fluid color turnsdarkish red gradually. It is normal condition and you should not judge the need to replace based upon thechanging color.You must replace the automatictransaxle fluid in accordance withintervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in section 5.
!WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at nor- mal operating temperature. This means that the engine, radiator, exhaust system etc., are very hot.Exercise great care not to burn your- self during this procedure.

Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine coolant fan should come on automatically if the engine coolant temperature is high. G220C01A-AAT
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan
The condenser coolant fan should come on automatically whenever the air conditioning is in operation. G230A01GK-GAT
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 certain that the power steering fluid level is betweenthe "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. NOTE:
o Grinding noise from the power
steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi- tions (below - 20°C). If the noisestops during warm up, there is no abnormal function in the sys- tem. It is due to a power steeringfluid characteristic in extremely cold conditions.
o Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir isempty.

3RUNNING IN YOUR NEW HYUNDAI
B020A01S-EAT The longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during the first 1,000 miles of motoring. Because of modern manu-facturing techniques, rigid guidelines regarding maximum road speeds have become unnecessary. However, cer-tain precautions should be observed in order to obtain the best possible per- formance and useful life from the ve-hicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a
load (i.e revving the engine in neu- tral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maxi- mum engine speed should be re-stricted to 3,000 rpm and gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal componentsof the engine will become morequickly run in if the operation speed is varied during the running in pe- riod.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoidlarge throttle openings when theengine speed is below 1,500 rpm.BEFORE ENTERING THE VEHICLEAFTER ENTERING THE VEHICLE
YB020A1-E
o Ensure that all windows, mirrors
and lamps are clean.
o Check condition of all tyres.
o Ensure that no fluid leaks are evi-
dent.
o Ensure that the area around the vehicle is clear before driving off. YB020B1-E
o Ensure that all occupants fasten
and correctly adjust seat belts.
o Ensure that seat and head restraint positions are adjusted for optimum safety, control and comfort.
o Adjust interior and exterior rear view mirrors.
o Verify correct operation of lamps, horn and other electrical equipment.
o Ensure that warning lamps illumi-
nate when ignition is turned on.
NOTE: Fluid levels such as engine oil, en- gine coolant, brake and windscreenwasher fluid should be checked daily or at each refuelling, which- ever occurs sooner.

B260B01JM-EAT SRS (Airbag) Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)(Not all models)
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) comes on for approximately 6 seconds after the ignition key is turnedto the "ON" position or after the engine is started, after which it will go out. This light also comes on when the SRS is not working properly. If the SRI does not come on, or continuously remainson after flashing for about 6 seconds when you turned the ignition key to the "ON" position or started the engine, orif it comes on whilst driving, have the SRS inspected by a Hyundai authorised repairer.
B260E01HP-GAT Seat Belt Warning Light
The seat belt warning light blinks for 6 about seconds when the ignition key isturned from the "OFF" position to "ON" or "START".
SB210J1-E High Beam Indicator Light
The high beam indicator light will illumi- nate whenever the headlights areswitched to high beam of flash position.
SB210K1-E Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
!CAUTION:
If the oil pressure warning light illu- minates when the engine is running, an insufficient oil pressure level for continued safe operation of the en-gine exists. Continued operation of the engine in this condition may result in serious engine damage. Under normal circumstances, the light will illuminate when the igni- tion is turned "on" and will be extin- guished when the engine is started.If the oil pressure warning light illu- minates whilst the engine is run- ning, stop the engine immediatelyand check the engine oil level.

If the level is insufficient, add the required amount of oil as indicated by the engine oil dipstick. If the lightfails to extinguish when the engine is restarted, do not continue to oper- ate the vehicle.If the oil pressure light illuminates during normal operation and the cause is not an insufficient oil level,or the light fails to illuminate when the ignition is turned "on", contact the nearest Hyundai authorised re-pairer before further operating the vehicle.
B260N02A-EAT Malfunction Indicator
Light (Not all models)
This light illuminates when there is a malfunction of an exhaust gas relatedcomponent, and the system is not func- tioning properly so that the exhaust gas regulation values are not satisfied. Thislight will also illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to the "ON" position, and then it will go out in a few secondsafter the engine is started. If it illumi- nates whilst driving, or does not illumi- nate when the ignition key is turned tothe "ON" position, take your car to your nearest Hyundai authorised repairer and have the system checked.SB210P1-E Low Fuel Level Warning Light
The low fuel warning light serves to warn the driver that the remaining fuelquantity is approximately 9 litres and that the vehicle should be refuelled. If the vehicle is driven for an extendedperiod with the low fuel warning light illuminated there exists a possibility that misfiring due to fuel shortage mayoccur. This situation must be avoided to prevent damage to the catalyst oc- curring.
