DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE 6- 17
With the engine idling and the footbrake applied, the transaxle selector shouldbe moved from the "P" or "N" position through to the "L" position and back to the "N" or "P" position.Open the bonnet and remove the transaxle dipstick, remembering that care must be exercised to prevent in-jury occurring through contact with hot or rotating parts of the engine.
C090A03FC
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
HTB164 Wipe the dipstick, replace it fully and promptly remove it again. The fluid level should be between the upper and lower marks. Fluid need only be added if the level is at or below the lower markand must never be increased above the higher mark. If additional fluid is re- quired, this should be poured into thetransmission through the dipstick tube with the aid of a suitable funnel. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en-gine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when theengine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that youare not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will auto-matically shut off. This is a normal condition.

!WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30 secondsafter shutting off engine. High pres- sure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subject to highpressure even after the engine stopped. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury,if it touch the body. People using pacemakers should not move than 30cm closer to the ECU or wiringharness within the engine room while engine is running, since the high

SG120A1-EBRAKE SYSTEM CHECKINGcurrents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields.
!
CAUTION:
The automatic transaxle unit is a precision engineered assembly and correct operation is dependant uponthe exclusion of dirt and lint from the unit. Therefore, it is imperative that only lint free cloth (eg nylon) is usedfor wiping the dipstick and that the area around the dipstick is thor- oughly clean prior to level checkingor adding fluid. Fluid Capacity Fluid Capacity The total fluid capacity of the transaxle unit is 6.1 litres. SG120C2-E Brake Fluid Recommendations Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications or higher may be used in the braking system. Care shouldbe taken to observe the instructions and precautions printed upon the con- tainer.
!
CAUTION:
Correct operation of the braking sys- tem is essential to the safe operation of the vehicle and therefore, any main-tenance operations other than those listed below should be entrusted to a Hyundai dealer.
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 below the"MIN" mark, fluid should be added. It should be borne in mind that the brake fluid level will decrease slightly as thefriction linings of the pads and shoes become worn and that this is a normal condition.

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 possi- bility of brake fade along with pro-moting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specified time or mile-age interval to ensure continued safe operation of the system. Brake fluid will cause rapid and serious damageto paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the affected area must be rinsed with water immediately. Donot allow brake fluid to come into!

TER (In Front of evaporator unit)(Not all models) The pollen filter is located in front of the evaporator unit behind the glove box. It operates to decrease pollutants fromentering the car and to filter the air.
1. Remove the adjusting pins on both
sides of the glove box to open half the glove box.
HTB290-D
SG140D1-E Off Season Maintenance The air conditioning must be run for ten minutes or so weekly during periodswhen the system would not normally be used to ensure that the compressor and seals are lubricated. If this precautionis not observed the compressor seals may become stuck to the compressor shaft and damaged when the system isnext used resulting in a loss of refriger- ant and damage to the compressor.
SG140C1-E Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and run at idle for
several minutes with the refrigera- tion system running at the coldest setting.
2. Open the bonnet and inspect the sight glass on the top of the receiverdryer.
3. If the refrigerant charge is insuffi- cient, a flow of bubbles will be ob-served through the sight glass.
4. If the refrigerant charge is satisfac- tory, no bubbles will be observedthrough the sight glass. CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning systemwith a low refrigerant level may dam-age the compressor.
!
The air conditioning compressor drive belt should be checked to ensure free- dom from damage or excessive wearand correct tension. The belt tension is correct when the belt deflects by about 0.3 inches (8 mm) (1.1L: 5 ~ 5.5 mm)when a force of 98 N is applied to the belt halfway between the compressor and crankshaft pulleys. Adjustment ofthe belt should be entrusted to a Hyundai dealer.

You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine run- ning, have your helper press down on the brake pedal several times and thenhold it down with a force of about 490 N (50 Kg, 110 lbs). The brake pedal clearance is the distance from the topsurface of the brake pedal to the as- phalt sheeting under the floor mat. If the brake pedal clearance is notwithin the limits specified in the illustra- tion, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if nec-essary.SG170A1-E BRAKE PEDAL FREEPLAY

SG200A1-E FUSIBLE LINKS The fusible link prevents damage to the wiring harness in the event of an elec-trical system malfunction. Failure of a fusiblelink is indicative of a serious overload condition having occurred andtherefore the electrical system should be checked by a Hyundai dealer 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 connecting the circuit will create a potential firehazard.

The multi box is removed by pulling lightly and then releasing the lid.A fuse rating grid will be found on the reverse side of the cover. In the event of fuse failure, the fuse should be re-placed with one of equivalent rating. A fuse removal tool is provided within the fuse box to facilitate replacement.In the event of a replacement fuse failing shortly after installation a mal- function within the circuit protected bythat fuse is indicated. The circuit should be checked by a Hyundai dealer at the first available opportunity. HTB180-D

cold condition (below -4°F). If the noise stops during warm up, there isno abnormal function in the system. This is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold con-ditions. FLUID RECOMMENDATION Only automatic transmission fluid meet- ing the specification of PSF-3 shouldbe used in the power steering system.
