To Check the Coolant Level
If the level is below the "L" mark, add
coolant of the correct concentration
until the level is between the "L" and
"F" marks. If the level falls below the
"L" mark on a regular basis despite
being topped up, consult a Hyundai
authorised repairer.

To Change the Coolant
The coolant should be changed at
those intervals specified in the vehicle
maintenance schedule in Section 5.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to ensure that
coolant is not allowed to spill onto
the paintwork since the finish may
become damaged. If coolant spill-
age occurs, the affected area should
be rinsed thoroughly with water.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground
and ensure that the parking brake is
firmly applied, and the engine al-
lowed to cool.
Do not attempt this operation whilst
the engine is hot since burning or
scalding may result.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to
collect the displaced coolant and
position this under the radiator drain
tap.
3. With the heater temperature control
set to the "HOT" position, remove
the radiator cap and open the radia-
tor drain tap.
4. When the engine coolant has drained
completely, close the drain tap en-
suring that this is not over tight-
ened.
5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new
engine coolant (refer to section 9)
and pour this into the radiator.
