Brake pedal
HXGS508
3 ~ 8 mm (0.12 ~ 0.31 in.)
With the engine off, press down on the brake pedal several times to re-duce the vacuum in the brake booster.Then, using your hand, press downslowly on the brake pedal until you feel a change in resistance. This is the brake pedal freeplay. The freeplayshould be within the limits specified in the illustration. If it is not, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer andadjusted or repaired if necessary.

G190A01A-GAT Gasoline Engine Drive belts should be checked peri- odically for proper tension and ad-justed if necessary. At the same time, belts should be examined for cracks, wear, fraying or other evidence ofdeterioration and replaced if neces- sary. Belt routing should also be checked to be sure there is no interference between the belts and other parts of the engine. After a belt is replaced,the new belt should be adjusted again after two or three weeks to eliminate slack resulting from initial stretchingafter use.
G180A01A-GAT CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL CLEARANCE
G180A01L
45.1 mm (1.78 in.)
You need a helper to check the brake pedal clearance. With the engine run- ning, have your helper press down on the brake pedal several times andthen hold it down with a force of about 490N (50 kg, 110 lbs). The brake pedal clearance is the distance fromthe top surface of the brake pedal to the asphalt sheeting under the floor mat. If the brake pedal clearance isnot within the limits specified in the illustration, have it inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or re-paired if necessary. CHECKING DRIVE BELTS

28CHECKING AND REPLACING FUSES
G200A01A-AAT
Replacing a Fusible Link
A fusible link will melt if the electrical
circuits from the battery are ever over- loaded, thus preventing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This could be caused by a short in the systemdrawing too much current.) If this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause, repair the sys-tem and replace the fusible link. The fusible links are located in a fuse box for easy inspection. Good

Replacing Accessory Fuses
HFC4010
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, neveruse anything but a new fusible link with the same or lower amper- age rating. Never use a piece ofwire or a higher-rated fusible link. This could result in serious dam- age and create a fire hazard.

At the scheduled maintenance inspec-
tion, belts should be examined for cracks, wear, fraying or other evi- dence of deterioration and replaced if necessary.
Belt routing should also be checked
to be sure there is no interferencebetween the belts and other parts ofthe engine.
The fuse box for the lights and other
electrical accessories will be found inthe backside of the multi box located on the instrument panel to the left side of the driver.

Checking the Battery
Keep the battery clean. Any evidence of corrosion around the battery posts or terminals should be removed using a solution of household baking sodaand warm water. After the battery ter- minals are dry, cover them with a light coating of grease.
WARNING:Always read the followinginstructions carefully whenhandling a battery.Keep lighted cigarettes andall other flames or sparksaway from the battery.Hydrogen, which is a highlycombustible gas, is always present in battery cells and may explode if ignited.Keep batteries out of the reach of children becausebatteries contain highly cor- rosive SULFURIC ACID. Do not allow battery acid tocontact your skin, eyes, clothing or paint finish. If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least15 minutes and get imme- diate medical attention. If possible, continue to applywater with a sponge or cloth until medical atten- tion is received. If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the contacted area.If you feel a pain or a burn-ing sensation, get medicalattention immediately.Wear eye protection whencharging or working near abattery.Always provide ventilationwhen working in an en- closed space.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 components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.

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 between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markingson the fluid reservoir. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering pump may be heard im- mediately after the engine is startedin extremely cold conditions (be- low - 20°C). If the noise stops dur- ing warm up, there is no abnormalfunction in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid characteris- tic 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.

CHECKING ELECTRIC COOLING FANS
G220A01A-AAT
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 engine coolant temperature decreases thefan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condition.POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

Checking Engine Cooling Fan
The engine cooling fan should come on automatically if the engine coolant temperature is high. G220C01A-AAT

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 re-placed if there is severe surface crack- ing, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora- tion of the hose could cause prema-ture failure.
2. Pump the hand pump until there are no more bubbles in the fuel coming out of the air pipe. When doing this, place a cloth around the air pipe to prevent the escaping fuel from spew-ing about.
3. Replace the air cap when there are no more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump becomes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there
is no leakage of fuel. If in doubt, consult your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer. G350B01FC
Air pipe
The fuel system should be bled to
remove air as described in the illustra- tion if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not usedfor a long time.
1. Remove the air cap with pushing the button.

If the fuel filter warning light illumi- nates during driving, it indicates thatwater has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as described.1. Loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the fuel filter.
2. Tighten the drain plug when water no longer comes out.
3. Check to be sure that the warning lamp illuminates when the ignition key is turned to "ON", and that it goes off when the engine is started. If in doubt, consult your nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
NOTE: It is recommended that water ac-
cumulated in the fuel filter should be removed by an authorized Hyundai dealer. G300B02FC
!WARNING:
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 thismanner, because the fuel mixed in the water might be ignited and result in a fire.

HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
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). G290A01FC
5. Open the hood.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the center of each headlight beam pat- tern) and the horizontal line (throughthe center of each headlight beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw a horizontal paral- lel line at 30 mm (1.18 in.) under the horizontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with aphillips screwdriver - VERTICALAIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to each vertical line with a phillips screwdriver - HORIZON- TAL AIMING.
