Replacing the Spark Plugs
The spark plugs should be changed at the
intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5 or whenever engine per-formance indicates they should be changed.Symptoms that suggest poor spark plug perfor-mance include engine misfiring under load, lossof fuel economy, poor acceleration, etc. Whenspark plugs are replaced, always use sparkplugs recommended by Hyundai. The use ofother spark plugs can result in loss of perfor-mance, radio interference or engine damage.
NOTE:
o When replacing the spark plug, Genuine Hyundai Replacement Parts are recom-mended.
Recommended Spark Plugs: The wiper blades should be carefully inspected
from time to time and cleaned to remove accu-mulations of road 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 Hyundai re-placement parts or their equivalent.
NOTE:
o Do not operate the wipers on dry glass. This can result in more rapid wear of thewiper blades and may scratch the glass.
o Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum products such as engineoil, petrol, etc.
o It is recommended that spark plugs be
changed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
WARNING: It is recommended that the engine be cool
or cold when changing the spark plugs. If the engine is hot, you could burn yourselfon the insulated connector, the spark plugor the engine itself.

3. If the transmission fluid level is low, use a
funnel to add transmission fluid through the dipstick tube until the level reaches the "HOT"range. Do not overfill.
WARNING: The electric engine cooling fan automatical-
ly switches on and off according to engine temperature. Be careful to keep away fromthe fan during this check as it may switch onat any time.
WARNING (Diesel only): Never work on injection system with engine
running or within 30 seconds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injec-tors and high pressure pipes are subject tohigh pressure even after the engine stopped.The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks maycause serious injury, if it touch the body.People using pacemakers should not move
G110D03Y
Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
than 30cm closer to the ECU or wiring har- ness within the engine room whilst engineis running, since the high currents in theCommon Rail system produce considerablemagnetic fields.
NOTE: Only lint free cloth should be used for wip-
ing the dipstick. The presence of lint within the transmission may cause problems withthe normal function of the transmission.

BRAKE SYSTEM CHECKING CAUTION: Correct operation of the braking system is essential to the safe operation of the vehicleand therefore, any maintenance operationsother than those listed below should beentrusted to a Hyundai dealer. SG120C2-E
Brake Fluid Recommendations Only brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifications or higher may be used in thebraking system. Care should be taken to ob-serve the instructions and precautions printedupon the container. SG120D1-E
Brake Fluid Level
The fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir shouldbe checked periodically. The level should bebetween the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on theside of the reservoir. If the level is at or belowthe "MIN" mark, fluid should be added havingcarefully cleaned the area surrounding the res-ervoir cap to ensure that dirt is not allowed toenter the system. It should be borne in mindthat the brake fluid level will decrease slightlyas the friction linings of the pads and shoesbecome worn and that this is a normal condi-tion. WARNING: Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an unsealed container. Thepresence of water in the braking system willcause vapour locks and increase the possi-bility of brake fade along with promoting

corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continuedsafe operation of the system. Brake fluid willcause rapid and serious damage topaintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, theaffected area must be rinsed with waterimmediately. Do not allow brake fluid tocome into contact with the eyes or to beingested and ensure that fluid is safely storedaway form the reach of children.
SG130A1-C
CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID To Check the Clutch Fluid The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder
should be checked when performing other un- der bonnet checks. The system should bechecked for leakage at the same time.
Ensure that the clutch fluid level is always
between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markingson the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid lossindicates a leak in the clutch system whichshould be inspected and repaired immediately. SG130B2-E
Adding Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming to DOT
3 or DOT 4 should be used. The reservoir capmust be fully tightened to avoid contaminationfrom foreign matter or moisture.
CAUTION: Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never
be stored in an unsealed container. Do not allow petroleum base fluid to contaminatethe brake fluid since damage to the rubberseals of the system may result.

vehicle may be damaged. You should inspect the exhaust system each time the car is raisedfor lubrication or oil change. To check condition
1. Holes and gas leaks due to corrosion, dam-
age, etc., should be rectified.
2. The joints should be checked for loose con- nections and gas leakage.
3. The hanger rubber and brackets should be checked for damage. DH010B1-E
1. CRANKCASE EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM ; For a Petrol Engine
The positive crankcase ventilation system is
employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crank-case.
This system supplies fresh air to the crankcase
through the air cleaner. Inside the crankcase,the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, thenpasses through the PCV valve into the intakesystem.
ZH010C1-E
2. EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CON-
TROL SYSTEM ; For a Petrol Engine
The Evaporative Emission Control System is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escapinginto the atmosphere.
Canister While the engine is inoperative, fuel vaporsgenerated inside the fuel tank are absorbed andstored in the canister. When the engine isrunning, the fuel vapors absorbed in the canis-ter are drawn into the induction system throughthe purge control solenoid valve.
