The engine oil and filter should be changed at those intervals specified inthe maintenance schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filterchanges are required. The procedure for changing the oil and filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set
the parking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until the needle on the coolant temperature gauge movesabove the lowest mark. Turn the engine off and place the gear selec- tor lever in reverse gear.
2. Lift up the front passenger's seat (Refer to "To Inspect the EngineCompartment Under the FrontPassenger's Seat" on page 1-13.) and remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the drain plug by turning it counter-clockwise with a wrench of the proper size. Be sure that a drain pan is inposition to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drain plug.
CHANGING THE OIL AND FILTER
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis- tons, piston rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a piston moves down- wards in the cylinder. High negativepressure generated during engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high tempera-
ture combustion gases during thecombustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition. G040A03HR-GAT 2.6 N/A

G050B01A-AAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol cool- ant in a 50/50 mix with water. Theengine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Additional corrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system must be maintained with the correct con- centration and type of engine coolantto prevent freezing and corrosion. Never allow the concentration of anti- freeze to exceed the 60% level or gobelow the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result. For proper concentration when adding or replacingthe engine coolant, refer to the following table.

G050C01A-GAT To Check the Coolant Level The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir.The level of the coolant should be between the "L" and "F" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cold. If thelevel is below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "L" and "F". If the level is low, inspect forcoolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspec-tion and diagnosis of the reason.

CHECKING AND CHANGING THE ENGINE COOLANT
G050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. When the engine ishot, the engine coolant is under pres- sure and may erupt through the open- ing if the cap is removed. You couldbe seriously burned if you do not observe this precaution. Do not re- move the radiator cap until the radia-tor is cool to the touch.

G050D01HR-GAT To Change the Coolant The coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehiclemaintenance schedule in Section 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill enginecoolant on the car, wash it off thor- oughly with clean water.
!
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and lift up the front passenger's seat. (Refer to "To in- spect the Engine Compartment Un- der the Front Passenger's Seat" onpage 1-13). 2. 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 counter-clockwise.
WARNING:
Remove the radiator cap when the radiator is cool. 3. Be sure your drain receptacle is in
place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow all the engine coolant to drain from the cooling system, then securely close the drain cock.
4. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then,following the manufacturer's direc-tions on the engine coolant contain- er, add the appropriate quantity of coolant to the radiator.
5. Fill the radiator with clean demineral- ized or distilled water. Continue toadd clean demineralized or distilledwater in small quantities until the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck.

12CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER FILTER
G070A01HR-GAT
The air cleaner filter is located in front of the front tire on the right side. The replacement of air cleaner filter is performed in the following manner.
1. Unsnap the clips around the cover.
2. When this is done, the cover can be taken off, the old filter removed and the new filter put in its place.
Genuine Hyundai replacement parts arerecommended. CAUTION:
o Operating your vehicle without a proper air filter in place can result in excessive engine wear.
o When removing the air cleaner filter, be careful that dust or dirtdoes not enter the air intake. Thesemay result in damage to the air cleaner filter.

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine coolant temperature and may sometimes 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 tem-perature decreases, the fan will auto- matically shut off. This is a normal condition.
6. Start the engine, top off the radiator
with water, open the hood and thenadd engine coolant to the reservoir until the level is between "L" and "F".
7. Replace the radiator and reservoir
caps and check to be sure the draincocks are fully closed and not leak- ing.

26POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
G230A03A-GAT The power steering fluid level should be checked regularly. To check the power steering fluid level, be sure the ignition is "OFF", thencheck to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluidreservoir. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steer- ing pump may be heard immediatelyafter the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops during warm up, there isno abnormal function in the system. HHR5014CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
!
G220B01A-AAT Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should come on automatically if the engine coolant tem- perature is high. G220C01TB-GAT Checking Condenser Cooling Fan When the air conditioning is in opera- tion, the condenser cooling fan comeson automatically to be controlled by ECU.
G220A01A-AAT
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by en- gine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the cooling fan, so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant temper- ature decreases the fan will automat- ically shut off. This is a normal con-dition.
o When lifting a plastic-cased bat- tery, excessive pressure on the case may cause battery acid toleak, resulting in personal injury. Lift with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
o Never attempt to charge the bat- tery when the battery cables areconnected.
o The electrical ignition system works with high voltage.Never touch these componentswith the engine running or the ignition switched on.

o Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel system.
o Be sure to carefully wipe away any
water drained out in this manner,because the fuel mixed in the wa- ter might be ignited and result in a fire.
HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the lowbeam to the parallel line with a phillips screwdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.

Horizontal aiming
Vertical aiming
G290A01FC-GAT Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tires inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground
and press the front bumper and rear bumper down several times. Place the vehicle at a distance of 3,000 mm (118 in.) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,engine oil and fuel, and spare tire,jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn
on the headlight (low beam).
5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the
center of each headlight beam pat- tern) and the horizontal line (through the center of each headlight beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw a horizontal parallel line at 30 mm (1.18 in.) under thehorizontal line.
NOTE: It is recommended that water accu- mulated in the fuel filter should be removed by an authorized Hyundaidealer.
