and are there any diagrams on how to flush out the system and replace with this.

Also because the dealship was so adamant about it using only PSF III they made me sign on my receipt that they were not liable for any damage incuring form switching fluids out...
Why, they sold you the wrong oil.... Go speak with somebody in charge, store manager comes to mind,, if his people cant read the manual held in front of and comply to customer request, he needs to hire smarter people.

how legal is that if the manual clearly states use PSF IV
Call Hyundai Cunsumer affairs, and tell them what happened, and the people at store are not trained properly, they insist on selling wrong fluid against what called out in manual.
