Coolant Level The engine coolant level may be observed through the side of the plas-tic coolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add coolantof the correct concentration until the level is between the "LOW" and "FULL" marks. If the level falls belowthe "LOW" mark on a regular basis despite being topped up, consult a Hyundai dealer. HPG050D2-E
To Change the Coolant
The coolant should be changed atthose intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5. NOTE: Care should be taken to ensure that coolant is not allowed to spill onto the paintwork since the fin- ish may become damaged. If cool-ant spillage occurs, the affected area should be rinsed thoroughly with water.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and ensure that the parking brake is firmly applied, and the engine allowed to cool.Do not attempt this operation whilstthe engine is hot since burning orscalding may result.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to
collect the displaced coolant andposition this under the radiator drain tap. NOTE: Petrol Engine Only
Before adding the coolant to the
radiator, unscrew the bolts on theengine cover, remove the engine cover and unscrew the flange boltfor fitting water outlet to escape the excess pressure. And if the coolant overflows from the hole whilst add-ing the coolant, screw the bolt and continue to add the coolant.

3. With the heater temperature control set to the "HOT" position, remove the radiator cap and open the radia-tor drain tap. 4. When the engine coolant has drained
completely, close the drain tap en-suring that this is not over tight- ened.
5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new engine coolant (refer to section 9)and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator cap still removed and continue to add coolant as the level decreases as air is expelled from the system. When the level remains constant,replace the radiator cap and replen- ish the coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks are present.

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and maysometimes 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 au- tomatically shut off. This is a nor- mal condition.

Transmission Fluid Capacity The fluid capacity of the automatic transmission is 10.5 litres (Petrol En- gine)/ 11.8 litres (Diesel Engine).
To Check the Transmission Fluid Level
2. Remove the transmission dipstick,wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far as it will go, then remove it again. Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the"HOT" range on the dipstick.
CAUTION:
The transmission fluid level shouldbe checked when the engine is atnormal operating temperature. This means that the engine, radiator, exhaust system etc., are very hotso you should exercise great care not to burn yourself during this procedure. Park the car on level ground with the
parking brake engaged. When thetransmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be at normal operating temperature and theengine idling.
Whilst the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selectorlevel from "P" to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" — and then return to "N" or "P". With theengine still idling:
1. Open the bonnet, being careful to keep hands and clothing clear of any moving parts.

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Do not touchthe radiator fan until it is completely stopped. As the coolant temperature de- creases the fan will automatically shut off. This is a normal condi-tion.
Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should auto-matically come on if the engine cool- ant temperature is high.
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan (in front of the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioner is in operation.
If any electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and get imme-diate medical attention. If possible, continue to apply water with a sponge orcloth 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 medical attention 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 to leak, 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 are connected.
o The electrical ignition system works with high voltage. Never touch these components with the engine running or the ignition switched on.
