To Check the Coolant Level
HGK187
The coolant level can be seen on the side of the
plastic coolant reservoir. The level of the cool-
ant 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 fre-
quently. If the level drops again, visit your
Hyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosis
of the reason.
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should

be compatible with aluminum engine parts.
Additional 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 anti-
freeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the
35% level, or damage to the cooling system
may result. For proper concentration when add-
ing or replacing the engine 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
removed. You could be seriously burned if
you do not observe this precaution. Do not
remove the radiator cap until the radiator is
cool to the touch.
