3. ENGINE COMPARTMENT LAYOUT
Do not work on the engine compartment while the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, muffler or
catalytic converter is hot. Always turn the engine off and allow it to cool before starting the
maintenance.
Regularly check the engine oil level and add Ssangyong genuine engine oil if necessary.
Clean the dipstick with clean cloth so that any foreign materials cannot get into the engine. -

2. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
1) General Description
The cooling system maintains the engine temperature at an efficient level during all engine operating
conditions.
When the engine is cold, the cooling system cools the engine slowly or not at all. This slow cooling o
f
the engine allows the engine to warm up quickly.
The cooling system includes a radiator and recovery subsystem, cooling fans, a thermostat and
housing, a water pump, and a water pump drive belt. The timing belt drives the water pump.
All components must function properly for the cooling system to operation. The water pump draws the
coolant from the radiator. The coolant then circulates through water jackets in the engine block, the
intake manifold, and the cylinder head. When the coolant reaches the operating
temperature of the thermostat, the thermostat opens. The coolant then goes back to the radiator where
it cools.
This system directs some coolant through the hoses to the heat core. This provides for heating and
defrosting.
The coolant reservoir is connected to the radiator to recover the coolant displaced by expansion from
the high temperatures. The coolant reservoir maintains the correct coolant level.
The cooling system for this vehicle has no radiator cap or filler neck. The coolant is added to the cooling
system through the coolant reservoir.
2) Radiator
This vehicle has a lightweight tube-and-fin aluminum radiator. Plastic tanks are mounted on the upper
and the lower sides of the radiator core.
On vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles, the transaxle fluid cooler lines run through the radiato
r
tank.
A radiator drain plug is on this radiator.
To drain the cooling system, open the drain plug.
3) Coolant Reservoir
The coolant reservoir is a transparent plastic reservoir, similar to the windshield washer reservoir.
The coolant reservoir is connected to the radiator by a hose and to the engine cooling system by anothe
r
hose.
As the vehicle is driven, the engine coolant heats and expands. The portion of the engine coolant
displaced by this expansion flows from the radiator and the engine into the coolant reservoir. The ai
r
trapped in the radiator and the engine is degassed into the coolant reservoir.
When the engine stops, the engine coolant cools and contracts. The displaced engine coolant is then
drawn back into the radiator and the engine. This keeps the radiator filled with the coolant to the desired
level at all times and increases the cooling efficiency.
Maintain the coolant level between the MIN and MAX marks on the coolant reservoir when the system is
cold.

3. CAUTIONS ON RAIN SENSOR
When the wiper switch is in the AUTO position, the wiper will operate for 1 cycle if the initial engine
start is made. This may cause the wiper blades to wear prematurely. Therefore, other than rainy days,
set the switch to the OFF position. Especially during the winter time, check if the wiper blades are not
frozen to the windshield.
Operating the wiper with the blades frozen can damage the wiper motor.
If you operate the wipers when the windshield is dry without spraying washer fluid, the windshield can
be scratched and the wiper blades can wear prematurely. Use the wiper with the washer fluid when
the windshield is dry.
When it does not rain, turn the wiper switch to the OFF position.
Turn the wiper switch to the OFF position before any car wash to avoid unwanted operation of the
wipers. -
-
-
-
When cleaning the windshield over the sensor with damp clothes, the wiper may operate suddenly. It
could cause serious injury. Make sure to place the wiper switch to the OFF position and ignition
switch OFF when not in use.
Irregular operation (abrupt operation) ▶
Check if the sensor is off the position.
Check if the rain sensor cover is securely installed.
Check if the customer is familiar to how to control the wiper sensitivity.
Check if the wiper sensitivity control is set to the FAST side (step 5).
Check the wiper blade for wear.
If the wiper blade cannot wipe the glass uniformly and clearly, it may cause the rain sensor to work
irregularly. Therefore, in this case, replace the wiper blade with a new one. -

1. OVERVIEW
The wiper & rain sensor system consists of the multifunction wiper switch, windshield wiper motor and
linkage, wiper arm and blade, rain sensor, wiper relay (LO/HI) and washer tank. The rain sensor does
not directly operate the rain sensing wiper and it sends only the data of the rainfall to the STICS. The
basic operation of the wiper and washer is controlled by the STICS according to the signal regarding the
multifunction switch operation modes (MIST, AUTO, LO/HI, washer, sensitivity adjustment).
Layout ▶
Windshield wiper motor & linkage
When the driver operates the switch so that
the wiper motor is activated, the linkage
converts the rotary motion to reciprocating
motion and transfers it to the wiper arm.
Windshield wiper arm & blade
It receives the power from the wiper linkage
and does a reciprocating motion (left to right).
Washer nozzle
Installed on both sides of the cowl grille
assembly (one on each side). Sprays washer
fluid in fan-shape to cover the windshield
area as much as possible.Washer reservoir tank
Tank that supplies washer fluid to front

2) Fluidic Washer Nozzle
Fluidic Washer Nozzle is applied to the front washer spray system in this vehicle. The inside of nozzle is
designed to utilize the fluidic movement.
This is a shape of the inside of nozzle. It is designed to change the spraying direction continuously
according to the spraying time (fan-shape). The figure below shows the changes of spraying direction
according to the spraying time.
It is designed to be changed spraying direction using the whirlwind and backflow generated in nozzle.Washer fluid inletSpray passage Counter-currentPassageWasher fluid outlet
