To Replace the Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming to
DOT 3 or DOT 4 specification should be
used. The reservoir cap must be fully tight-
ened to avoid contamination from foreign
matter or moisture.
NOTE:
Do not allow any other liquids to contami-
nate the brake fluid. Seal damage will
result.
!
WARNING:
Use caution when handling brake fluid. It
can damage your vision if you get it in
your eyes. It will also damage your
vehicle's paint if spilled on it and not
removed immediately.

AIR CONDITIONING CARE

G140A01A-AAT
Keeping the Condenser Clean
The air conditioning condenser (and en-
gine radiator) should be checked periodi-
cally for accumulation of dirt, dead insects,
leaves, etc. These can interfere with maxi-
mum cooling efficiency. When removing
such accumulations, brush or hose them
away carefully to avoid bending the cool-
ing fans.
G140B01A-AAT
Checking the Air Conditioning Op-
eration
1. Start the engine and let it run at a fast idle
for several minutes with the air condi-
tioning set at the maximum cold setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents
is not cold, have the air conditioning
system inspected by your Hyundai
dealer.
!
CAUTION:
Running the air conditioning system for
extended periods of time with a low re-
frigerant level may damage the com-
pressor.
