Maintenance
Changing the coolant
We recommend that the coolant be
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
CAUTION
Put a thick cloth around the radiatorcap before refilling the coolant in order to prevent the coolant from overflowing into the engine partssuch as the generator.
WARNING - Coolant
Do not use radiator coolant or antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
Radiator coolant can severely obscure visibility when sprayed
on the windshield and may cause
loss of vehicle control or damage
to paint and body trim.WARNING
Radiator cap
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine and radiator are
hot. Scalding hot coolant and
steam may blow out under pres-
sure causing serious injury.

BRAKES/CLUTCH(IF EQUIPPED) FLUID
Checking the brake/clutch fluid
level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir peri-
odically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir. Before removing the reservoir cap and
adding brake/clutch fluid, clean the area
around the reservoir cap thoroughly to
prevent brake/clutch fluid contamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulated
mileage. This is a normal condition asso-
ciated with the wear of the brake linings.
If the fluid level is excessively low, we
recommend that the system be checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Use only the specified brake/clutch fluid.
(Refer to “Recommended lubricants and capacities” in chapter 8.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING - Brake/clutch fluid
When changing and adding
brake/clutch fluid, handle it careful-
ly. Do not let it come in contact with
your eyes. If brake/clutch fluid
come in contact with your eyes,
immediately flush them with a large
quantity of fresh tap water. Have
your eyes examined by a doctor as
soon as possible.
WARNING - Loss of brake fluid
In the event the brake system
requires frequent additions of fluid,we recommend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
CAUTION
Do not allow brake/clutch fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, aspaint damage will result.Brake/clutch fluid, which has been
exposed to open air for an extended time should never be used as itsquality cannot be guaranteed. It should be properly disposed. Don't
put in the wrong kind of fluid. A few drops of mineral-based oil, such asengine oil, in your brake/clutch sys-tem can damage the system parts.

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID (IF EQUIPPED)
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 pro-
cedure.
1. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral) position and confirm the engine is run-
ning at normal idle speed.
2. After the transaxle is warmed up suffi- ciently (fluid temperature 70~80°C
(158~176°F), for example by 10 min-
utes usual driving, move the shift leverthrough all the positions then place the
shift lever in “N (Neutral) or P (Park)”position. 3. Confirm that the fluid level is in “HOT”
range on the level gauge. If the fluid
level is lower, add the specified fluid in
the fill hole. If the fluid level is higher,
drain the fluid from the drain hole.
4. If the fluid level is checked in cold con- dition (fluid temperature 20~30°C
(68~86°F) add the fluid to “C” (COLD)
line and then recheck the fluid level
according to the above step 2.
OBA073007OHD076045N
WARNING - Transaxle fluid
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at nor-
mal operating temperature. This
means that the engine, radiator,
radiator hose and exhaust system
etc., are very hot. Exercise great
care not to burn yourself during
this procedure.

✽✽
NOTICE
“C” (COLD) range is for reference only
and should NOT be used to determine
the transaxle fluid level. ✽
✽
NOTICE
A new automatic transaxle fluid should
be red. The red dye is added so the
assembly plant can identify it as auto-
matic transaxle fluid and distinguish it
from engine oil or antifreeze. The red
dye, which is not an indicator of fluid
quality, is not permanent. As the vehicle
is driven, the automatic transaxle fluid
will begin to look darker. The color may
eventually appear light brown.
Therefore, we recommend that the sys-
tem be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
Scheduled Maintenance at the begin-
ning of this chapter.
Use only the specified automatic
transaxle fluid. (Refer to “Recommended
lubricants and capacities” in chapter 8.) Changing the automatic transaxle fluid
We recommend that the system be
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
WARNING
- Parking brake
To avoid sudden movement of the
vehicle, apply the parking brake
and depress the brake pedal before
moving the shift lever.
CAUTION
Low fluid level causes transaxle shift slippage. Overfilling can
cause foaming, loss of fluid andtransaxle malfunction.
The use of a non-specified fluid could result in transaxle malfunc-
tion and failure.

Maintenance
3. Replace the air cleaner filter.
4. Reassemble in the reverse order ofremoval. Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is operated in extremely
dusty or sandy areas, replace the ele-ment more often than the usual recom-
mended intervals. (Refer to“Maintenance under severe usage condi-tions” in this chapter.)
CAUTION
Do not drive with the air cleaner removed; this will result in exces-
sive engine wear.
When removing the air cleaner fil- ter, be careful that dust or dirtdoes not enter the air intake, or
damage may result.
We recommend that you use parts for replacement from anauthorized HYUNDAI dealer. Useof improper parts could damage
the air flow sensor or turbo charg-er.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected
from electrical overload damage by
fuses.
This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one locat-
ed in the driver’s side panel bolster, the
other in the engine compartment near
the battery.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, acces-
sories, or controls do not work, check the
appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has
blown, the element inside the fuse willmelt.
If the electrical system does not work,
first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of
the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indi-
cates an electrical problem. Avoid using
the system involved and we recommend
that you consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
✽✽NOTICE
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade
type for lower amperage rating, car-
tridge type, and fusible link for higher
amperage ratings.

A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a
fire.
Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse -
even as a temporary repair. It may
cause extensive wiring damage
and a possible fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any
other metal object to remove fuses
because it may cause a short circuit and damage the system.
