Diesel engine Only ethylene glycol based coolant with a corrosion inhibitor suited to aluminium alloy engine components should be used in the cooling system. No further additives or inhibitors should be used.The coolant specific gravity should be checked as prescribed in the mainte- nance schedule to ensure adequatefrost and corrosion protection. In addi- tion, the engine coolant must be re- placed at the specified interval sincethe corrosion inhibitor properties dete- riorate with time. It is important to note that whilst anincrease in the concentration of anti freeze gives an increase in the level offrost protection, a solution which is in excess of 65% anti freeze will result in reduced frost protection and engineoverheating. Therefore the recom- mended concentration of 50% should not be exceeded for general use.The use of methanol based anti freeze compounds may result in engine over- heating and will invalidate the vehiclewarranty. NOTE: It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an air conditioning system have a coolant concentration of the rec- ommended strength at all times. Theuse of the air conditioning system when the cooling system is filled with water only will result in theheater matrix freezing and subse- quently bursting.
SG050C1-E Engine Coolant Level The engine coolant level may be ob- served through the side of the plasticcoolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add coolant of thecorrect concentration until the level is between the "LOW" and "Full" marks. If the level falls below the "LOW" mark ona regular basis despite being topped up, consult a Hyundai authorised repairer. SG050D1-E To Change the engine Coolant The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Section5. NOTE: Care should be taken to ensure that coolant is not allowed to spill ontothe paintwork since the finish may become damaged. If coolant spill- age occurs, the affected area shouldbe rinsed thoroughly with water.

1. Park the vehicle on level ground and
ensure that the parking brake is firmly applied, and the engine allowed tocool. Do not attempt this operation whilst the engine is hot since burning orscalding may result.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to col-
lect the displaced coolant and posi-tion this under the radiator drain tap.
3. With the heater temperature control
set to the "HOT" position, removethe radiator cap and open the radiator drain tap. 5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new
engine coolant (refer to section 9)and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator cap
still removed and continue to addcoolant as the level decreases as air is expelled from the system. Whenthe level remains constant, replace the radiator cap and replenish the coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks arepresent.
4. When the engine coolant has drained completely, close the drain tap en-suring that this is not over tightened. 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.

SG060A1-E SPARKING PLUG REPLACE- MENT
G060A01L
0.039 ~ 0.043 in. (1.0 ~ 1.1 mm )
This operation should only be performed when the engine is cold.
1. Remove the centre cover from the engine rocker cover.
2. Remove plug lead from the sparking plug to be replaced, pulling the lead by the rubber cap. (Pulling the lead may damage the carbon conductor).
3. Clean around the base of the plug to be removed, and install the plugsocket ensuring that the ceramicinsulator does not become damaged. Turn the socket counterclockwise to remove the plug. CAUTION:
Sparking plugs must only be cleaned using purpose designed equipment. Wire brushing may damage the cen-tre electrode-insulator causing mis- firing to occur. Only the correct grade of sparking plug should be used.Use of an incorrect grade may result in serious engine damage. Prior to installing a sparking plug, the gap between the centre and outer elec- trodes must be checked and adjusted as necessary. Adjustment is facilitated by bending the outer electrode towards or away fromthe centre electrode. Under no circum- stances should attempts be made to adjust the position of the centre elec-trode.
4. Insert the sparking plug into the cyl- inder head and screw by the wrench and until the plug contacts the seat- ing area. Tighten the plug with the socket by a further 1/2 to 3/4 of a turnonly. 5. Replace the plug lead ensuring that
the cap is pushed firmly into place.Confirm that the cap is correctlyseated by lightly pulling upon it.
NOTE: When replacing the spark plug, al- ways use the genuine parts recom- mended. Recommended Spark Plugs

SG090A2-E WINDSCREEN WASHER RES- ERVOIR REPLENISHMENT The level of windscreen washer fluid available should be checked on a daily basis. The level of fluid will be visiblethrough the side of the reservoir. When the fluid is to be replenished, only a proprietary screen wash additive shouldbe used and in the concentration rec- ommended by the manufacturer. The windscreen washer reservoir has a totalcapacity of 3 litres. CAUTION:
Engine coolant anti freeze must notbe used in the windscreen washersystem since damage to the paintwork may result. Undiluted windscreen washer addi-tive must not be allowed to come into contact with the paintwork. If spillage occurs, flush the affectedarea immediately with water. Do not operate the windscreen washer for more than 15 seconds continuouslyor when the reservoir is empty since damage to the washer pump will result.

CAUTION:
The automatic transaxle unit is a precision engineered assembly andcorrect operation is dependant upon the exclusion of dirt and lint from the unit. Therefore, it is imperative thatonly lint free cloth (eg nylon) is used for wiping the dipstick and that the area around the dipstick is thor-oughly clean prior to level checking or adding fluid. 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 authorised repairer.
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.
