CHECKING THE ENGINE COOLANT

G050A01TG-AAT

WARNING:

Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is under pressure and may erupt through the opening if the cap is removed. You could be seriously burned if you do not observe this precau- tion. Do not remove the radiator cap until the radiator is cool to the touch.

NOTE: It is recommended that the engine cool- ant should be changed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.

DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE

G050B01A-AAT

Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a 50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with alumi- num engine parts. Additional corrosion inhibitors or additives should not be used. The cooling system must be maintained with the correct concentration and type of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corrosion. Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result.

For proper concentration when adding or replacing the engine coolant, refer to the following table.

6 DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE

G050C01TG-AAT

To Check the Coolant Level

OCM055004L The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant should be between the "L" and "F" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cool. If the level is below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "L" and "F". If the level is low, inspect for coolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis of the reason.

CAUTION:

o Engine coolant can damage the finish of your car. If you spill engine coolant on the car, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.

o The engine in your vehicle has alumi- num engine parts and must be pro- tected by an ethylene-glycol base coolant to prevent corrosion and freez- ing. Do not use hard water. Hard water can cause engine damage from corro- sion, overheating or freezing.

! WARNING:

The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and may some- times operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near the blades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant temperature decreases, the fan will au- tomatically shut off. This is a normal condition.

CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER FILTER

G070A03Y-AAT

OCM055007
The replacement of air cleaner filter is performed in the following manner. 1. Unsnap the clips around the cover. 2. When this is done, the cover can be lifted off, the old filter removed and the new filter put in its place.

Replacing Accessory Fuses

OCM054002
The fuse box for the lights and other elec- trical accessories will be found low on the dashboard on the driver's side. Inside the box you will find a list showing the circuits protected by each fuse. If any of your car's lights or other electrical accessories stop working, a blown(open) fuse could be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has melted through. If you suspect a blown fuse, follow this proce- dure:

1. Turn off the ignition and all other

switches.

2. Open the fuse box and examine each fuse. Remove each fuse by pulling it toward you (a small "fuse puller" tool is contained in the relay and fuse box of the engine room to simplify this opera- tion).

3. Be sure to check all other fuses even if you find one that appears to have burned out.

DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR HYUNDAI

G250A01A-AAT If you desire additional information about maintaining and servicing your Hyundai, you may purchase a factory Shop Manual at your Hyundai dealer's parts department. This is the same manual used by dealer- ship technicians and while it is highly tech- nical it can be useful in obtaining a better understanding of your car and how it works.

NOTE: o Grinding noise from the power steer- ing pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold conditions (below - 4°F). If the noise stops during warm up, there is no abnormal function in the system. It is due to a power steering fluid char- acteristic in extremely cold condi- tions.

o Do not start the engine when the power

steering oil reservoir is empty.

OCM055027L

The power steering fluid level should be checked regularly. To check the power steering fluid level, be sure the engine is "OFF", then check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir.

G240A01A-AAT

Power Steering Hoses It is suggested that you check the power steering hose connections for fluid leak- age at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Section 5. The power steering hoses should be re- placed if there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deteriora- tion of the hose could cause premature failure.

REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT BULBS

G260A01CM-AAT Before attempting to replace a light bulb, be sure the switch is turned to the "OFF" position. The next paragraph shows how to reach the light bulbs so they may be changed. Be sure to replace the burned-out bulb with one of the same number and wattage rating.

CAUTION:

o Keep the lamps out of contact with petroleum products, such as oil, gaso- line, etc.

o After heavy, driving rain or washing, headlight and taillight lenses could appear frosty. This condition is caused by the temperature difference between the lamp inside and outside. This is similar to the condensation on your windows inside your vehicle during the rain and doesn’t indicate a problem with your vehicle. If the water leaks into the lamp bulb circuitry, have the vehicle checked by an Authorized Hyundai Dealer.

7 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

H010A01NF-AAT Your Hyundai is equipped with an emis- sion control system to meet all emission regulations. There are three emission control systems which are as follows.

(1) Crankcase emission control system (2) Evaporative emission control system (3) Exhaust emission control system

In order to assure the proper function of the emission control systems, it is recom- mended that you have your car inspected and maintained by an authorized Hyundai dealer in accordance with the maintenance schedule in this manual.

Caution for the Inspection and Mainte- nance Test (With Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system)

o To prevent the vehicle from misfiring during dynamometer testing, turn the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) sys- tem off by pressing the ESC switch. o After dynamometer testing is com- pleted, turn the ESC system back on by pressing the ESC switch again.

H010B01A-AAT

1. Crankcase Emission Control

System

The positive crankcase ventilation system is employed to prevent air pollution caused by blow-by gases being emitted from the crankcase. This system supplies filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, the fresh air mixes with blow-by gases, which then pass through the PCV valve and into the induc- tion system.

H010C01S-AAT

2. Evaporative Emission Control (In- cluding ORVR: Onboard Refuel- ing Vapor Recovery) System

The Evaporative Emission Control Sys- tem is designed to prevent fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. (The ORVR system is designed to allow the vapors from the fuel tank to be loaded into a canister while refueling at the gas station, preventing the escape of fuel va- pors into the atmosphere.)

Canister Fuel vapors generated inside the fuel tank are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the engine is running, the fuel va- pors absorbed in the canister are drawn into the induction system through the purge control solenoid valve.

Purge Control Solenoid Valve (PCSV) The purge control solenoid valve is con- trolled by the Engine Control Module (ECM); when the engine coolant tempera- ture is low during idling, the PCSV closes so that evaporated fuel is not taken into the engine. After the engine warms-up during ordinary driving, the PCSV opens to intro- duce evaporated fuel to the engine.
