CHECKING AND CHANGING THE EN-
Recommended Engine Coolant
To Check the Coolant Level
GINE COOLANT
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50
mix with water. The engine coolant should
!
be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Ad-
ditional corrosion inhibitors or additives should
not be used. The cooling system must be main-
tained with the correct concentration and type of
engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro-
sion.
Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to
exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% level
or damage to the coolant system may result. For
proper concentration when adding or replacing
the coolant, refer to the following table.
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 re-
moved. You could be seriously burned if you
do not observe this precaution. Do not re-
move the radiator cap until the radiator is
cool to the touch.
HLC5005
The coolant level can be seen on the side of the
plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the coolant
should be between the "LOW" and "FULL" lines
on the reservoir when the engine is cool. If the
level is below the "LOW" mark, add engine
coolant to bring it up between "LOW" and "FULL".
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.
