POWER STEERING FLUID
Checking the power steering
fluid level
Before adding power steering fluid,
thoroughly clean the area around the
reservoir cap to prevent power steer-
ing 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.
•
Never start the engine when
the reservoir tank is empty.
When adding fluid, be careful
that dirt does not get into the
tank.
In the event the power steering sys-
tem requires frequent addition of
fluid, we recommend that the system
be inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

and/or noise from the power
steering system.
With the vehicle on level ground,
check the fluid level in the power
steering reservoir periodically. The
fluid should be between MAX and
MIN marks on the side of the gauge
at the normal temperature.
The use of the non-specified
fluid could reduce the effective-
ness of the power steering sys-
tem and cause damage to it.
Use only the specified power steer-
ing fluid. (Refer to "Recommended
lubricants or capacities" in section
8.)
