POWER STEERING FLUID
Before adding power  steering fluid, thor-
oughly clean  the area around  the reser-
voir cap  to  prevent power  steering fluid
contamination.
If the  level is  low, add  fluid  to the  MAX
level.
CAUTION
•  To  avoid   damage  to  the  power
steering water  pump unit, do  not
operate the vehicle for  prolonged
periods with a low power steering
fluid level.
In the  event  the power  steering system
requires  frequent  addition  of  fluid,  the
vehicle   should   be   inspected    by   an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
•  Never  start the  engine  when the
reservoir tank is empty.
•  When adding fluid, be careful that
dirt does not get into the  tank.
Too   little    fluid   can   result    in
increased  steering  effort  and/or
noise  from   the   power  steering
system.
The use  of the non-specified fluid
could reduce  the effectiveness  of
the  power   steering  system  and
cause damage to it.
OBH078022
Checking the power steering fluid
level
With the  vehicle on  level ground,  check
the fluid level in the power steering reser-
voir  periodically.   The  fluid   should   be
between  MAX  and  MIN  marks  on  the
side of the gauge at the normal tempera-
ture.
Use  only  the  specified  power  steering
fluid. (Refer to "Recommended lubricants
or capacities" in section 8.)
Checking the power steering
hose
Check the connections for oil leaks, dam-
age  and  twists   in  the  power   steering
hose before driving.
