EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAIN- TENANCE ITEMS
F060M01A-AAT
o Engine oil and filter The engine oil and filter should be changed at
the intervals specified in the maintenance sched- ule. If the car is being driven in severe condi-tions, more frequent oil and filter changes arerequired.
F060B01A-AAT
o Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts,
cracks, excessive wear or oil and replace ifnecessary. Drive belts should be checked pe-
riodically for proper tension and adjusted asnecessary.
F060C01A-GAT
o Fuel filter
A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the
vehicle may be driven, damage the emissionsystem and cause hard starting. If an exces-sive amount of foreign matter accumulates inthe fuel tank, the filter may require replacementmore frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine for
several minutes, and check for leaks at theconnections. F060D01A-GAT
o Fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions for leakage and damage. Replace anydamaged or leaking parts immediately. Inspect the hose routing to assure that the
hoses do not come in contact with any heatsource, sharp edges or moving component
which might cause heat damage or mechanicalwear. Inspect all hose connections, such as
clamps and couplings, to make sure they aresecure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses
should be replaced immediately if there is any
evidence of deterioration or damage.

Before checking the oil, warm up the engine to
the normal operating temperature and be sure your car is parked on level ground. Turn theengine off.
Wait a minute, then remove the dipstick, wipe it
off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw itagain. Then note the highest level the oil hasreached on the dipstick. It should be betweenthe upper ("FULL") and lower ("LOW") range. If the oil level is close to or below the "L" mark,add oil until it reaches the "F" mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counter-
clockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clockwise. The distance between the "F" and "L" marks is equal to about 1 liter of oil. G350A01A-GAT
ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil
Engine oil has the primary function of lubricat-
ing 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 asfollows;
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 thecylinder. High negative pressure generated
during engine operation sucks some of theoil into the combustion chamber. This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is
burned by the high temperature combustiongases 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. Theengine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and
frequent acceleration and deceleration thannormal driving condition.

Recommended Engine Coolant
Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Ad-ditional corrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system must be main-tained with the correct concentration and typeof engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro-sion. Never allow the concentration of antifreeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the 35% levelor damage to the coolant system may result. Forproper concentration when adding or replacingthe coolant, refer to the following table.
35% 40%50%60% G050C01A-AAT
To Check the Coolant Level
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 cold.If the level is below the "LOW" mark, addengine coolant to bring it up between "LOW"and "FULL". If the level is low, inspect forcoolant leaks and recheck the fluid level fre-quently. If the level drops again, visit yourHyundai dealer for an inspection and diagnosisof the reason. G050D02A-AAT
To Change the Engine Coolant
The engine coolant should be changed at thoseintervals specified in the vehicle maintenanceschedule in Section 5. CAUTION: Engine coolant can damage the finish of your car. If you spill engine coolant on thecar, wash it off thoroughly with clean water.
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and remove the radiator cap whencool.
2. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place. Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allowall the engine coolant to drain from thecooling system, then securely close the draincock.
3. Check Section 9 for the capacity of the cooling system in your car. Then, followingthe manufacturer's directions on the enginecoolant container, add the appropriate quan-tity of engine coolant to the radiator.
