SG050C1-E Engine Coolant Level
The engine coolant level may be
observed through the side of the plas- tic coolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "L" mark, add coolant ofthe correct concentration until the level is between the "L" and "F" marks. If the level falls below the "L" mark on aregular basis despite being topped up, consult a Hyundai authorised re- pairer. SG050D1-E To Change the Engine Coolant The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5.
3. With the heater temperature controlset to the "HOT" position, removethe radiator cap and open the radia- tor drain tap.
4. When the engine coolant has drained completely, close the drain tap en- suring that this is not over tight-ened. G050D03E
CAUTION:
Care should be taken to ensure that
coolant is not allowed to spill ontothe paintwork since the finish maybecome damaged. If coolant spill- age occurs, the affected area should be rinsed thoroughly with water.
!
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and ensure that the parking brake is firmly applied, and the engine al- lowed to cool. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS OPERA- TION WHILST THE ENGINE IS HOT SINCE BURNING OR SCALD-ING MAY RESULT.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to
collect the displaced coolant andposition this under the radiator drain tap.

NOTE: Automatic transaxle fluid is red in colour. As driving distance in-creases, the fluid colour turns dark- ish red gradually. It is a normal condition and you should not judgethe need to replace based upon the changing colour. You must replace the automatic transaxle fluid in accordance with intervals specified in the vehicle maintenances schedule in section 5.
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level must bechecked with the engine running and at normal operating tempera- ture and therefore care must be ex-ercised to prevent injury occurring through contact with rotating or hot parts of the engine. G110D03L-GAT
Checking the automatic transaxle fluid level
The automatic transaxle fluid level
should be checked regularly.
Keep the vehicle on the level ground
with the parking brake applied and check the fluid level according to the following procedure.
1. Place the selector lever in N (Neu- tral) position and confirm the engine is running at normal idle speed.
2. After the transaxle is warmed up sufficiently (fluid temperature70~80°C (158~176°F)), for example by 10 minutes usual driving, shiftthe selector lever through all posi- tions then place the selector lever in N (Neutral) or P (Park) position.

Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
3. Confirm that the fluid level is in “HOT” range on the level gauge. If the fluid level is lower, add the specified fluid from the fill hole. If the fluid level is higher, drain thefluid from the drain hole.
4. If the fluid level is checked in cold condition (fluid temperature 20~30°C(68~86°F)) add the fluid to “COLD” line and then recheck the fluid level according to the above step 2.

SG120A1-E BRAKE SYSTEM CHECK- ING
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.

CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
SG130A1-C
(Manual Transaxle)To Check the Clutch Fluid
The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when performing other under bonnet checks. The system should be checked forleakage at the same time.Ensure that the clutch fluid level isalways between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indicates aleak in the clutch system which should be inspected and repaired immedi- ately.
WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an un- sealed container. The presence ofwater in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possibility of brake fade alongwith promoting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continued safe operation of the system. Brake fluid will cause rapidand serious damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the affected area must be rinsed withwater immediately. Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the eyes or to be ingestedand ensure that fluid is safely stored away form the reach of chil- dren.
!
SG140A1-E Condenser Ensure that the condenser is periodi- cally inspected and that accumula- tions of dirt, dead insects and leaves etc, are removed to ensure that theefficiency of the system is not im- paired. Care must be exercised to ensure that the condenser fins arenot damaged during cleaning. AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

TYRE REPLACEMENT
Tyres must be replaced when the wear
indicators appear as a solid bar across the tyre tread. At this point, the re- maining tread depth will be approxi-mately 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). In addition to this, the tyre must be replaced if any portion of the tread has become baldor if there are any lumps, bulges or deep cuts in the sidewalls or tread.
Replacement tyres must be of the
recommended size and rating and should be of the same manufactureand tread pattern on each axle. HGK5015
0.06 in. (1.6 mm )
Wear indicator
SI060A2-E TYRE BALANCING Incorrect tyre balance will cause steer- ing vibration and uneven tyre wear. The vehicle tyres are balanced during production but may need further bal-ancing throughout the life of the tyres.It is recommended that the tyres bebalanced on the car for best results and that the tyres are balanced when- ever they have been removed from thewheel for repair. NOTE: Should abnormal wear be noted on a tyre, then it is recommended that the wheel alignment be checked byyour Hyundai authorised repairer at the earliest opportunity.
!WARNING:
o Tyres degrade over time, even when they are not being used. Regardless of the remaining tread,it is recommended that tyres gen- erally be replaced after six (6) years of normal service. Heatcaused by hot climates or fre- quent high loading conditions can accelerate the aging process.Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tyre failure, which could lead to a loss of controland an accident involving seri- ous injury or death.
o The ABS works by comparing the speed of the wheels. Tire size canaffect wheel speed. When replac- ing tires, all 4 tires must use thesame size originally supplied with the vehicle. Using tires of a differ- ent size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESP(Electronic Stability Program) to work irregularly.
