Before checking the oil, warm up the
engine to normal operating tempera- ture and be sure your vehicle is parked on level ground. Turn the engine off.
Wait about five minutes, then remove
the dipstick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw it again. Then note the highest level the oil has reached on the dipstick. It should be between the upper (F) and lower (L) range.
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil
Engine oil has the primary function of
lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption
It is normal that an engine should
consume some engine oil while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil con- sumption in a normal engine are asfollows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis- tons, piston rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a piston moves downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated dur-ing engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion cham- ber.This oil with some oil of the cylin-der wall is burned by the high tem-perature combustion gases during the combustion process. o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition.
If the oil level is close to or below the"L" mark, add oil until it reaches the"F" mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning
it counter-clockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clock- wise.
The distance between the "F" and "L" marks is equal to about 1 liter(Gasoline Engine)/1.6 liter(Diesel Engine) of oil.
!
! CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil into a funnel. Do not overfill not todamage engine.
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch theradiator hose when adding the en-gine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.

G050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolantis under pressure and may erupt through the opening if the cap is removed. You could be seriouslyburned if you do not observe this precaution. Do not remove the radiator cap until the radiator iscool to the touch.
WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irrita- tion or cancer of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolongedperiods of time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water as soon as possible afterhandling used oil.
Gasoline engine
12. Start the engine and check to be
sure no oil is leaking from thedrain plug or oil filter.
13.Shut off the engine and recheck the oil level.
NOTE:
o It is recommended that the en- gine oil and filter should bechanged by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally accept- able manner. It is suggested thatit be placed in a sealed con- tainer and taken to a service station for maybe reclaimation.Do not pour the oil on the ground or put it in with the household trash.
! CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil into a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage the engine.

4. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it, until it stops. This relieves any pres- sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning coun-terclockwise.Fill the radiator with clean deminer-alized or distilled water. Continueto add clean demineralized or dis- tilled water in small quantities until the fluid level stays up in the radia-tor neck. G050D03E
G050D04E
G050D03A-AAT
To Change the Coolant
The coolant should be changed at
those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5.
! CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the
finish of your car. If you spill en- gine coolant on the car, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and remove the radia- tor cap when cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in
place. Open the drain cock on theradiator. Allow all the engine cool- ant to drain from the cooling sys- tem, then securely close the draincock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car.Then, following the manufacturer's directions on the engine coolant container, add the appropriatequantity of coolant to the radiator.
!WARNING:
Remove the radiator cap when the
radiator is cool. 5. Start the engine, top off the radiator
with water and then add engine coolant to the reservoir until thelevel is between "L" and "F".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir
caps and check to be sure the draincocks are fully closed and not leak- ing.

21CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE OIL
!
G100A01A
G100A04A-GAT MANUAL TRANSAXLE Transaxle lubricant in the manual transaxle should be checked at thoseintervals specified in the vehicle main- tenance schedule in Section 5. Recommended Oil Use only HYUNDAI GENUINE PARTS MTF 75W/85 (API GL-4) in the manual transaxle. Manual Transaxle Oil Capacity The oil capacity of the manual transaxle is 2.15 liters (2.27 U.S. quarts). Drain plug
Filler plug
!
A good quality washer fluid should be used to fill the washer reservoir. Thefluid level should be checked more frequently during inclement weather or whenever the washer system is inmore frequent use.The capacity of the washer reservoiris 3.0 liters (3.2 U.S. quarts).
CAUTION:
o Radiator antifreeze (engine cool- ant) should not be used in thewasher system because it will damage the car's finish.
o The washer should not be oper- ated if the washer reservoir is empty. This can damage thewasher fluid pump. WARNING:
o Windshield washer fluid agents contain some amounts of alcoholand can be flammable under cer-tain circumstances. Do not allow sparks of flame to contact the washer fluid or the washer fluidreservoir. Damage to the vehicle or its occupants could occur.
o Windshield washer fluid is poi- sonous to humans and animals.Do not drink windshield washer fluid. Serious injury or death could occur.

To Check the Transaxle Fluid Level
Park the car on level ground with the
parking brake engaged. When the transaxle fluid level is checked, the transaxle fluid should be at normaloperating temperature and the en- gine idling.
G110C01E-GAT
Transaxle Fluid Capacity
The fluid capacity of the automatic
transaxle is 6.1 liters (1.6 DOHC)/7.8 liters (1.8/2.0 DOHC). While the engine is idling, apply the brakes and move the gear selector lever from "P" to each of its other positions -- "R", "N", "D", "3" (1.8/2.0 DOHC), "2", "L" -- and then return to"N" or "P". With the engine still idling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as faras it will go, then remove it again.Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the "HOT" range on the dipstick. G110D01E
!WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at normal operating temperature. This means that the engine, radiator,exhaust system etc., are very hot. Exercise great care not to burn yourself during this procedure.
! CAUTION:
Use of aftermarket ATF additives
may cause damage to the auto- matic transaxle. Only use HYUNDAI GENUINE ATF SP III, DIAMOND ATF SP III, SK ATF SP III or otherbrands approved by Hyundai Mo- tor Co., If you are having your vehicle serviced at a facility otherthan a Hyundai dealer, verify that the correct ATF is used for your vehicle.

27AIR CONDITIONING CARE
G140A01A-AAT
Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and engine radiator) should be checked periodically for accumulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. These caninterfere with maximum cooling effi- ciency. When removing such accu- mulations, brush or hose them awaycarefully to avoid bending the cooling fans.
G140B01A-AAT
Checking the Air Conditioning Operation
1. Start the engine and let it run at a
fast idle for several minutes with the air conditioning set at the maxi-mum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash
vents is not cold, have the air con-ditioning system inspected by your Hyundai dealer. G140C01A-AAT
Lubrication
To lubricate the compressor and the seals in the system, the air condition- ing should be run for at least 10 minutes each week. This is particu-larly important during cool weather when the air conditioning system is not otherwise in use. CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning sys- tem for extended periods of time with a low refrigerant level maydamage the compressor.
! G140D01S-GAT
Checking the Compressor Drive Belt When the air conditioning is being used regularly, the compressor drive belt tension should be checked at least once a month.To check the drive belt tension, pressdown on the belt halfway between theengine crankshaft and compressor pulleys. Pressing with your finger, you should not be able to deflect this beltanymore than 8.0 mm. If you have the instruments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.), the deflectionshould be approx. 8.0 mm (0.315 in.). If the belt is too loose, have it ad- justed by your Hyundai dealer.
