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.

1. Park the car on level ground, set the park-
ing brake and remove the radiator cap when
cool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place.
Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow
all the engine coolant to drain from the
cooling system, then securely close the drain
cock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the
cooling system in your car. Then, following
the manufacturer's directions on the engine
coolant container, add the appropriate quan-
tity of coolant to the radiator.
4. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise without
pressing down on it, until it stops. This relieves
any pressure remaining in the cooling system.
And remove the radiator cap by pushing down
and turning counterclockwise.
Now fill the radiator with clean demineralized or
distilled water. Continue to add clean deminer-
alized or distilled water in small quantities until
the fluid level stays up in the radiator neck.
