5. Start the engine, top off the radiator with water and then add engine coolant to the reservoir until the level is between "L" and "F".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and check to be sure the draincocks are fully closed and not leak- ing.
!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when theengine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so thatyou are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will au-tomatically shut off. This is a nor- mal condition.

WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
CAUTION:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass. This can result in more rapid wear of the wiper blades and may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum productssuch as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
G080A02A-AAT The wiper blades should be carefully inspected from time to time and cleaned to remove accumulations ofroad film or other debris. To clean the wiper blades and arms, use a clean sponge or cloth with a mild soap ordetergent and water. If the wipers continue to streak or smear the glass, replace them with genuine Hyundaireplacement parts or their equivalent. HEF119
When this is done, the cover can be
lifted off, the old filter removed andthe new filter put in its place. Genuine Hyundai Replacement Parts are rec- ommended.
! 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. These may result in damage to the air cleaner filter.

25CHANGING THE AIR CONDITIONER FILTER
G140D01S-GAT
Checking the Compressor DriveBelt
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 theengine crankshaft and compressor pulleys. Pressing with your finger, you should not be able to deflect this beltanymore than 8.0 mm. If you have the instruments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.), the deflectionshould be approx. 8.0 mm (0.315 in.). If the belt is too loose, have it ad- justed by your Hyundai dealer.

(In Front of Blower Unit)
The air conditioner filter is located in
front of the blower unit behind the glove box.
It helps to decrease pollutants from
entering the car.
1. Open the glove box and remove
the adjusting pins on both sides of the glove box. 2. Remove the filter cover by pulling
upward the hooks of the filter cover.

Clutch pedal
G160A01E
6 ~ 13 mm (0.24 ~ 0.51 in.)
With the engine off, press lightly onthe clutch pedal until you feel a change in resistance. This is the clutch pedalfreeplay. The freeplay should be within the limits specified in the illustration. If it is not, have it inspected by yourHyundai dealer and adjusted or re- paired if necessary.
G150A01A-GAT
Steering wheel
G150A01FC
To check the steering wheel freeplay,
stop the car with the wheels pointed straight ahead and gently move the steering wheel back and forth. Use very light finger pressure and be sen-sitive to changes in resistance that mark the limits of the freeplay. If the freeplay is greater than specified, haveit inspected by your Hyundai dealer and adjusted or repaired if neces- sary. 30 mm (1.18 in.)
3. Replace the air conditioner filter with a new one.
4. Installation is the reverse order of disassembly.
CAUTION:
Be sure to install the air condi- tioner filter in the direction of thearrow sign. Otherwise, it may cause noise or deterioration.

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.

7EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
2EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
H010A01A-GAT
(If Installed)
Your Hyundai is equipped with an
emission control system to meet all requirements of the Emission prohibi- tion rules of your province.
There are three emission control sys-
tems which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys- tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys- tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is recommended that you have your carinspected and maintained by an au- thorized Hyundai dealer in accordance with the maintenance schedule in thismanual. H010B01A-AAT
1. Crankcase Emission Control
System
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent airpollution caused by blow-by gasesbeing emitted from the crankcase. This system supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air in-take hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, then passes through the PCV valveinto the induction system.
H010C01E-GAT
2. Evaporative Emission Control
System
The Evaporative Emission Control
System is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmo- sphere. Canister
While the engine is inoperative, fuel
vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canis- ter. When the engine is running, thefuel vapors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoidvalve. Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the Engine Control Mod- ule (ECM); when the engine coolant temperature is low during idling, the PCSV closes so that evaporated fuelis not taken into the engine. After the engine warms-up during ordinary driv- ing, the PCSV opens so as to intro-duce evaporated fuel to the engine.
H010D01A-AAT
3. Exhaust Emission Control
System
The Exhaust Emission Control Sys-
tem is a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining good vehicle performance.
