To Check the Transmission Fluid Level
Park the car on level ground with the
parking brake engaged. When the transmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be atnormal operating temperature and the engine idling.
While the engine is idling, apply the brakes and move the gear selectorlever from "P" to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" — and then return to "N" or "P". With theengine still idling: HHP30181. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothingclear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transmission dipstick,wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstickas 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. HHP5009

Fluid level should be within "HOT" range
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. G110D04HP
!!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, sothat you are not injured by a rotat- ing fan blade. As the engine cool- ant temperature decreases, the fanwill automatically shut off. This is a normal condition. WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subjectedto high pressure even after the en- gine has been switched off. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may causeserious injury, if it contacts with the body. People using pacemakers should not move closer than 30cmto the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room with the engine running, since the high currents inthe Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields.

Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT4 specification fluid from a sealed container. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain openany longer than required. This will prevent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake sys-tem and cause improper opera- tion.
To add brake fluid, first wipe away any
dirt, then unscrew the fluid reservoircap. Slowly pour the recommended fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill.Carefully replace the cap on the reser- voir and tighten.
CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
!
G130A01A-AAT
To Check the Clutch Fluid The clutch fluid level in the master
cylinder should be checked when performing other under hood services. The system should be checked for leakage at the same time. Check tomake certain that the clutch fluid level is always between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid res-ervoir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indi- cates a leak in the clutch system which should be inspected and re-paired immediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer. G130B02A-AAT
To Replace the Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming
to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification shouldbe used. The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid contaminationfrom foreign matter or moisture.
NOTE: Do not allow any other liquids to
contaminate the brake fluid. Seal damage will result.
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brake
fluid. It can damage your vision ifyou get it in your eyes. It will also damage your vehicle’s paint if spilled on it and not removed im-mediately.
