Hyundai Getz 2005 Owner's Manual

6- 16 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
It is recommended that the engine be cool or cold when changing the spark plugs. If the engine is hot, you couldburn yourself on the insulated con- nector, the spark plug or the engine itself.
4. When preparing to remove the old spark plug, guide the socket down over the spark plug, being careful not to damage the ceramic insulator.
5. To remove the spark plug, turn the
wrench handle in a counterclockwisedirection.
G060C01S-GAT Changing the Spark Plugs You will find it easier to change spark plugs if the engine is cold. Always change one spark plug at a time. This helps avoid getting the wires mixed up.
1. Remove the center cover on the en-
gine rocker cover. (DOHC engine only)
2. Using a clean cloth, remove any dirt
that has accumulated around the spark plug so it cannot fall into the cylinder when the spark plug is re-moved.
3. To remove the spark plug cable, pull
straight up on the insulated connec-tor, not the cable. Pulling on the cable may damage the carbon core conductor. HTB174-1
HTB175-1
HTB176-1!
6. To install the new spark plug, guidethe socket down over the spark plug, being careful not to damage the ce-ramic insulator.
NOTE: Spark plugs should be tightened firmly. Over-tightening can damagethe threads in the aluminum cylinder head. Leaving them too loose can cause the spark plugs to get very hotand possibly result in damage to the engine.
7. Replace the cable by pushing the insulated connector directly down onto the electrode. Check to be sure it has snapped into place and can'tfall off.

G090A01A-GAT FILLING THE WASHER RESER- VOIR The washer fluid reservoir supplies fluid to the windshield washer system. A good quality washer fluid should beused to fill the washer reservoir. The fluid level should be checked more frequently during bad weather or when-ever the washer system is in more frequent use. The capacity of the washer reservoir is3.0 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 lever should not be pulled and the washer shouldnot be operated if the washer reservoir is empty. This can dam-age the washer fluid pump.

G110A02E-AAT CHECKING THE TRANSAXLE FLUID (AUTOMATIC) 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 distance increases, the fluid color turns dark- ish red gradually. It is normal condi-tion and you should not judge the need to replace based upon the changing color.You must replace the automatic transaxle fluid in accordance with intervals specified in the vehiclemaintenance schedule in section 5.G110B04A-AAT Recommended Fluid Your Hyundai automatic transaxle is specially designed to operate withHyundai Genuine ATF SP-III, DIA- MOND ATF SP-III, SK ATF SP-III or other brands approved by Hyundai MotorCo., Damage caused by a nonspecified fluid is not covered by your new vehicle limited warranty. G110C01TB-GAT Transaxle Fluid Capacity The fluid capacity of the automatic transaxle is 6.1 liters.

Park the car on level ground with the engine off.
1. Using a wrench of the correct size, loosen the oil filler plug by turning it counterclockwise and remove it with your fingers.
2. Use your finger or suitable tool to feel inside the hole. The oil levelshould be at its bottom edge. If it is not, check for leaks before addingoil. To refill the transaxle or bring the oil level up,add oil slowly until it reaches the proper level. Do notoverfill. 3. Replace the plug and washer, screw
it in with your fingers and then tightensecurely with the wrench.
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should bechecked 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.

G110D01TB-GAT To Check the Transaxle Fluid Level Park the car on level ground with the parking brake engaged. When the transaxle fluid level is checked, thetransaxle fluid should be at normal operating temperature and the engine idling. While the engine is idling, apply the brakes and move the gear selectorlever from "P" to each of its other positions -- "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" -- and then return to "N" or "P". With theengine still idling: 3. If the transaxle fluid level is low, use
a funnel to add transaxle fluid throughthe dipstick tube until the levelreaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill. WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine coolant temperature and maysometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temper-ature decreases, the fan will auto- matically shut off. This is a normal condition.

Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
HTB164 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.

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 subjected to highpressure even after the engine has been switched off. The fuel jet pro- duced by fuel leaks may cause seri-ous injury, if it contacts with the body. People using pacemakers should not move closer than 30cm tothe ECU or wiring harness within the!

CAUTION:
Because brakes are essential to the safe operation of the car, it is sug- gested that they be checked andinspected by your Hyundai dealer. The brakes should be checked and inspected for wear at those inter-vals specified in the vehicle mainte- nance schedule in Section 5. WARNING:
Use caution when handling brake fluid. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. It will also dam- age your vehicle's paint if spilledon it and not removed immediately.
!
G120C02A-AAT Recommended Brake Fluid Use only hydraulic brake fluid con- forming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifica- tions in your braking system. Follow the instructions printed on the con-tainer. G120D01A-AAT To Check the Fluid Level
HTB166
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 thereservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bring it up to "MAX". Do not overfill.

G140A01A-AAT AIR CONDITIONING CARE Keeping the Condenser Clean The air conditioning condenser (and engine radiator) should be checked periodically for accumulation of dirt,dead insects, leaves, etc. These can interfere with maximum cooling effi- ciency. When removing such accumu-lations, brush or hose them away care- fully 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 maximum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air condi-tioning system inspected by yourHyundai 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 min- utes each week. This is particularly important during cool weather whenthe air conditioning system is not oth- erwise in use. G140D01TB-GAT Checking the Compressor Drive Belt

WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage your vision if it gets intoyour eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification fluid from a sealed container. Do not allow the fluidcan or reservoir to remain open any longer than required. This will pre- vent entry of dirt and moisture whichcan damage the brake system and cause improper operation.
!
To add brake fluid;
1) If it is necessary, remove the air cleaner cover.
2) Wipe away any dirt then unscrew the fluid reservoir cap.
3) Slowly pour the recommended fluid
into the reservoir using by a funnel. Do not overfill.

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, press down on the belt halfway between the engine crankshaft and compressorpulleys. Pressing with your finger, you should not be able to deflect this belt anymore than 8.0 mm (1.1L: 5~ 5.5mm). If you have the instruments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.), the deflection should be approx. 8.0 mm(0.315 in.). If the belt is too loose, have it adjusted by your Hyundai dealer. HTB219
