level may damage the compressor.

When the air conditioning is being used regu-

larly, the compressor drive belt tension should

be checked at least once a month.

To check the drive belt tension, press down on

the belt halfway between the engine crankshaft

and compressor pulleys. Pressing with your

finger, you should not be able to deflect this belt

anymore than 5 - 5.5 mm. If you have the

instruments to check it with a force of 98N (22

lb.), the deflection should be approx. 5 - 5.5

(0.197 - 0.217 inches). If the belt is too loose,

have it adjusted by your Hyundai dealer.

The air conditioner condenser (and engine ra-

diator) should be checked periodically for accu-

mulation of dirt, dead insects, leaves, etc. These
