coolant reservoir Hyundai Grandeur 2002 Owner's Manual

3- 4 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
check for coolant leaking from the radiator, hoses or under the car. (Ifthe air conditioning had been in use,it is normal for cold water to bedraining from it when you stop).
WARNING:
While the engine is running, keephair, hands, and clothing away frommoving parts such as the fan anddrive belts to prevent injury.
5. If the water pump drive belt is bro- ken or engine coolant is leaking out, stop the engine immediately andcall the nearest Hyundai dealer forassistance.
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap whenthe engine is hot. This can allowcoolant to be blown out of the open-ing and cause serious burns.
D030A01A-AAT IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS If your temperature gauge indicates overheating, you experience a loss ofpower, or hear loud pinging or knock-ing, the engine is probably too hot. Ifthis happens to you, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic), or neutral (manual transaxle) and set the parking brake. If the air conditioning is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out un- der the car or steam is coming outfrom the hood, stop the engine. Donot open the hood until the engine coolant has stopped running or the steaming has stopped. If there is novisible loss of coolant and no steam,leave the engine running and checkto be sure the engine cooling fan isoperating. If the fan is not running, turn the engine off.
4. Check to see if the water pump drive belt is missing. If it is not missing, check to see that it is tight. If thedrive belt seems to be satisfactory, 6. If you cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the enginetemperature has returned to nor-mal. Then, if the engine coolant hasbeen lost, carefully remove the ra- diator cap and add engine coolant to bring the fluid level in the reservoirup to the halfway mark.
7. Proceed with caution, keeping alert for further signs of overheating. Ifoverheating happens again, call a Hyundai dealer for assistance.
CAUTION:
Serious loss of engine coolant indi- cates there is a leak in the coolingsystem and this should be checkedas soon as possible by a Hyundai dealer.

G050D02A-AAT To Change the Engine Coolant The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec-tion 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage thefinish 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 radiator cap when cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on theradiator. Allow all the engine coolant to drain from the cooling system,then securely close the drain cock.
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol
coolant in a 50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Addi-tional corrosion inhibitors or additives should not be used. The cooling sys- tem must be maintained with the cor-rect concentration and type of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro- sion.
Never allow the concentration of an-
tifreeze to exceed the 60% level or gobelow the 35% level or damage to thecoolant system may result. For proper concentration when adding or replac- ing the engine coolant, refer to thefollowing table.

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.Now fill the radiator with clean dem-ineralized or distilled water. Con- tinue to add clean demineralized or distilled water in small quantitiesuntil the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck. G050D01L
G050D02L
5. Start the engine, top off the radia- tor with water and then add enginecoolant to the reservoir until the level is between "LOW" and "FULL".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir
caps and check to be sure thedrain cocks are fully closed and not leaking.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature andmay sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Useextreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of
the cooling system in your car.Then, following the manufacturer'sdirections on the engine coolant container, add the appropriate quantity of coolant to the radiator. rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, the fan will automatically shut off. Thisis a normal condition.

SPARK PLUGS
Your engine was originally equipped
with platinum-tipped spark plugs. (If installed)
Platinum-tipped spark plugs will last
longer than conventional type sparkplugs and can be identified by blue lines on the ceramic shell.Unleaded: 1.0 ~ 1.1 mm (0.039 ~ 0.043 in.) Leaded: 0.7 ~ 0.8 mm (0.028 ~ 0.032 in.)

POWER STEERING HOSES
It is suggested that you check the
power steering hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals.
The power steering hoses should be
replaced if there is severe surface cracking, scuffing or worn spots. De- terioration of the hose could causepremature failure.
G230A03A-GAT
POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
HXG2006
The power steering fluid level should
be checked regularly.
To check the power steering fluid
level, be sure the ignition is "OFF", then check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is betweenthe "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.
NOTE: Grinding noise from the power
steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (be- low - 20°C). In this case, if the noise stops during warm up, there is no abnormal function in the sys- tem. This is due to a power steer-ing fluid characteristic in extremely cold conditions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid. NOTE: Do not start the engine when the power steering oil reservoir is empty.
G220A01A-AAT
CHECKING ELECTRIC COOL- ING FANS
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even whenthe engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan,so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the coolant temperature decreases the fan willautomatically shut off. This is a normal condition.
G220B01A-AAT
Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine cooling fan should come
on automatically if the engine coolanttemperature is high.
G220C01A-AAT
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan
The condenser cooling fan should
come on automatically whenever the air conditioning is in operation.
