To Change the Coolant
The coolant should be changed at those
intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance
schedule in Section 5.
It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an
air conditioning system have a coolant
concentration of the recommended strength
at all times. The use of the air conditioning
system when the cooling system is filled
with water only will result in the heater
matrix freezing and subsequently bursting.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to ensure that cool-
ant is not allowed to spill onto the
paintwork since the finish may become
damaged. If coolant spillage occurs, the
affected area should be rinsed thoroughly
with water.

Engine Coolant Level
G050C02FC
Gasoline engine
The
engine coolant level may be observed
through the side of the plastic coolant reservoir
(expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the
level is below the "L" mark, add coolant of the
correct concentration until the level is be-
tween the "L" and "F" marks. If the level falls
below the "L" mark on a regular basis despite
being topped up, consult a Hyundai dealer.
1.
Park the vehicle on level ground and en-
sure that the parking brake is firmly ap-
plied, and the engine allowed to cool.
Do not attempt this operation whilst the
engine is hot since burning or scalding
may result.
2.
3.
Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the
displaced coolant and position this under
the radiator drain tap.
With the heater temperature control set to
the "HOT" position, remove the radiator
cap and open the radiator drain tap.
