C300D01GK-GAT Indicator and WarningThe indicator should illuminate when the igni- tion key is turned to ON
or START but should
go out after three seconds. If the indicator does not illuminate, or the TCS indicator does not go out after 3 seconds, have it checked by an authorized dealer. Should there be any unusual conditions in the device, TCS-OFF either illuminates or blinks as a warning. If TCS-OFF illuminates or blinks, pull your carto a safe place and stop the engine. Then, start the engine again to check if the TCS-OFF indicator goes out. If the indicator remains lit even after the engine has been started, have your car checked by an authorized Hyundai dealer. NOTE:
1) When TCS-OFF illuminates or blinks, trac- tion control is automatically deactivatedfor safety.
3) When the engine starts, a click is heard
from the engine compartment; however, this is only the sound of traction control being checked.
4) When moving out of the mud or fresh snow, pressing the accelerator pedal maynot cause the engine speed to increase. 2) This warning function is not provided
when the driver choose the TCS-OFF mode. o Take care of your tires. Keep them inflated
to the recommended pressure. Incorrect infla-tion, either too much or too little, results in unnecessary tire wear. Check the tire pres- sures at least once a month.
o Be sure that the wheels are aligned cor-
rectly. Improper alignment can result fromhitting curbs or driving too fast over irregular surfaces. Poor alignment causes faster tire wear and may also result in other problems as well as greater fuel consumption.
o Keep your car in good condition. For better
fuel economy and reduced maintenance costs, maintain your car in accordance with the maintenance schedule in Section 5. If you drive your car in severe conditions, more frequent maintenance is required (see Section 5 for details).
o Keep your car clean. For maximum service, your car should be kept clean and free ofcorrosive materials. It is especially impor- tant that mud, dirt, ice, etc. not be allowed to accumulate on the underside of the car. This extra weight can result in increased fuel consumption and also contribute to corro- sion.
o Travel lightly. Don't carry unnecessary weight in your car. Weight is an enemy of good fueleconomy.
o Don't let the engine idle longer than neces- sary. If you are waiting (and not in traffic),turn off your engine and restart only when you're ready to go.
SC150A1-F DRIVING FOR ECONOMYYou can save fuel and get more miles from your car if you follow these suggestions:
o Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moderate
rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts or full- throttle shifts and maintain a steady cruising speed. Don't race between stoplights. Try to adjust your speed to that of the other traffic so you don't have to change speeds unnec- essarily. Avoid heavy traffic whenever possible. Al-ways maintain a safe distance from other vehicles so you can avoid unnecessary brak- ing. This also reduces brake wear.
o Drive at a moderate speed. The faster you drive, the more fuel your car uses. Driving ata moderate speed, especially on the high- way, is one of the most effective ways to reduce fuel consumption.
o Don't "ride" the brake or clutch pedal. This
can increase fuel consumption and also increase wear on these components. In ad- dition, driving with your foot resting on the brake pedal may cause the brakes to over- heat, which reduces their effectiveness and may lead to more serious consequences.

NANCE REQUIRE- MENTS NOTE: The inspection and testing of certain elec- tronic fuel injection/engine management and automatic transmission control systems re- quire specialised electronic equipment spe- cifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The use of general purpose electrical test equip- ment may result in damage to the control unit microprocessors. SF020C1-E Specified Scheduled ProceduresThe Specified scheduled procedures are listed in the maintenance charts beginning at page 5- 2. The operations specified must be performed at the time or mileage intervals shown irrespec- tive of whether the mileage interval has been reached before the specified time interval. Certain lubricants and components degradewith both time and mileage (e.g. engine oil and brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable to base the maintenance schedule upon mile- age alone. It is strongly recommended that the maintenance operations are performed by the factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians at your Hyundai dealer because of the need for specialized knowledge and tooling and to en- sure that no possibility of invalidating the man- ufacturers warranty exists. The maintenance schedules relate to vehiclesoperated under normal conditions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditionswill require more frequent maintenance which is described at page 5-4. SF030B1-E SERVICE HISTORY It is important that all scheduled maintenance services are recorded in the warranty and ser- vice passport to ensure that proof of mainte- nance is available when warranty service is required.

G040A02GK-EAT ENGINE OIL AND FILTER REPLACEMENT The engine oil and filter must be changed at the time or mileage interval specified in the mainte- nance schedule. If the vehicle is operated under severe or adverse conditions, the oil and filter must be replaced more frequently. To replace the oil and filter, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the engine is at normal operating
temperature and park the vehicle on level ground with the parking brake securely ap- plied and the engine turned off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the oil filler cap.
3. Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the displaced oil and remove the drain plug fromthe sump.
ZG030E1-A ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of engine oil Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil while normal driving. The cause of oil consumption in a normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pistons, piston
rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a piston moves downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated during en- gine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber. This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high temperature combustion gases during the combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly ef- fected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under se- vere driving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driving condition.

ways wash thoroughly after any contact. Keep used oils out of reach of children. It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses and soil. Use only authorized waste collection facilities including civic amenity sites and garages for the disposal of used oil and oil filters. If in doubt, contact the local authority for dis- posal instructions. SG050A1-E ENGINE COOLANT CHECKING AND REPLACING WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot, since the system is pressurized and coolant may be ejected from the radiator resulting in scalding. SG050B1-E Coolant recommendations
Only ethylene glycol based coolant with a corro- sion inhibitor suited to aluminium alloy engine components should be used in the cooling sys- tem. No further additives or inhibitors should be used. The coolant specific gravity should be checked as prescribed in the maintenance sched- ule to ensure adequate frost and corrosion pro- tection. In addition, the engine coolant must be replaced at the specified interval since the corro- sion inhibitor properties deteriorate with time. It is important to note that whilst an increase in the concentration of anti freeze gives an increase in the level of frost protection, a solution which is in excess of 65% anti freeze will result in reduced frost protection and engine overheating. There- fore the recommended concentration of 50% should not be exceeded for general use. The use of methanol based anti freeze com- pounds may result in engine overheating and will invalidate the vehicle warranty. NOTE: It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an air conditioning system have a coolant concen- tration of the recommended strength at all times. The use of the air conditioning system when the cooling system is filled with water only will result in the heater matrix freezing and subsequently bursting.SG050C1-E Engine Coolant Level The engine coolant level may be observed through the side of the plastic coolant reservoir (expansion tank) when the engine is cold. If the level is below the "LOW" mark, add coolant of the correct concentration until the level is between the "LOW" and "Full" marks. If the level falls below the "LOW" mark on a regular basis despite being topped up, consult a Hyundai dealer. SG050D1-E To Change the Engine Coolant The engine coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehicle maintenance schedule in Section 5. NOTE: Care should be taken to ensure that coolant is not allowed to spill onto the paintwork since the finish may become damaged. If coolant spillage occurs, the affected area should be rinsed thoroughly with water.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and ensure
that the parking brake is firmly applied, and the engine allowed to cool. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS OPERATION WHILST THE ENGINE IS HOT SINCE BURN-ING OR SCALDING MAY RESULT.
2. Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the displaced coolant and position this under the radiator drain tap.
