When the air conditioning is being used regular-
ly, the compressor drive belt tension should be
checked at least once a month.
To check the drive belt tension, press down on
the belt halfway between the engine crankshaft
and compressor pulleys. Pressing with your
finger, you should not be able to deflect this belt
anymore than 8.0 mm. If you have the instru-
ments to check it with a force of 98N (22 lb.),
the deflection should be approx. 8.0 mm (0.315
in.). If the belt is too loose, have it adjusted by
your Hyundai dealer.
