6ZF060D1-A
o Fuel lines, fuel hoses and connec-
tions
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connections for leakage and damage. Replace any damagedor leaking parts immediately. 6ZF060E1-A o Timing beltInspect all parts related to the timing belt for damage and deformation. Replace any dam-aged parts immediately. 6ZF060G1-A
o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervals specified in the main-tenance schedule. Make sure that a new vapourhose or fuel filler cap is correctly replaced. 6ZF060F1-A
o Vacuum, crankcase
ventilation hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence of heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard and brittle rub-ber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and exces-sive swelling indicate deterioration. Particularattention should be paid to examining those hosesurfaces nearest to high heat sources, such asthe exhaust manifold.Inspect the hose routing to assure that the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source,sharp edges or moving component which mightcause heat damage or mechanical wear. Inspectall hose connections, such as clamps and cou-plings, to make sure they are secure, and that noleaks are present. Hoses should be replacedimmediately if there is any evidence of deteriora-tion or damage. 6ZF060H1-A
o Air cleaner filterA Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is recom- mended when the filter is replaced. 6ZF060J1-A
o Spark plugs Make sure to install new spark plugs of the correct heat range.
6ZF060A1-A EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS 6ZF060M1-A
o Engine oil and filterThe engine oil and filter should be changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.If the car is being driven in severe conditions,more frequent oil and filter changes are required. 6ZF060B2-A
o Drive belts Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace ifnecessary. Drive belts should be checked peri-odically for proper tension and adjusted as nec-essary. 6ZF060C1-A
o Fuel filterA clogged filter can limit the speed at which the vehicle may be driven, damage the emissionsystem and cause hard starting. If an excessiveamount of foreign matter accumulates in the fueltank, the filter may require replacement morefrequently.After installing a new filter, run the engine forseveral minutes, and check for leaks at theconnections.
F060N02E-EAT
o Valve Clearance Inspect excessive valve noise and/or engine vibration and adjust if necessary. A qualifiedtechnician should perform the operation.

F070E03A-AAT
o Automatic transaxle fluid The fluid level should be in the "HOT" range of the dipstick, after engine and transaxle are at normaloperating temperature. Check the AutomaticTransaxle Fluid level with the engine running andthe transaxle in neutral, with the parking brakeproperly applied. Use DIAMOND ATF SP- III,
SK ATF SP- III when adding or changing fluid. 6ZF070M1-A
o Steering gear box, linkage & boots/
lower arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine off, check for excessive freeplay in the steering wheel.Check the linkage for bends or damage. Checkthe dust boots and ball joints for deterioration,cracks, or damage. Replace any damaged parts. 6ZF070N1-A
o Power steering pump, belt and hos-
es
Check the power steering pump and hoses for leakage and damage. Replace any damaged orleaking parts immediately. Inspect the powersteering belt for evidence of cuts, cracks, exces-sive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Replaceor adjust it if necessary.
6ZF070F1-A o Brake hoses and linesVisually check for proper installation, chafing, cracks, deterioration and any leakage. Replaceany deteriorated or damaged parts immediately. 6ZF070G2-A
o Brake fluidCheck brake fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir. The level should be between "MIN" and"MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. Useonly hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 orDOT 4.
6ZF070B1-A
o Cooling systemCheck the cooling system part, such as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and connections forleakage and damage. Replace any damagedparts. 6ZF070C1-A
o Coolant The coolant should be changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.

SG020B1-E DAILY OPERATING CHECKSThe following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, which-ever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Engine coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equip-
ment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning lamp operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily oper- ating checks indicate that any item of equipmentrelated to the safety or roadworthiness of thevehicle is not functioning correctly. SG030A1-E ENGINE OILThe correct engine oil level is of paramount importance. An excessively high or low oil levelmay result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil level must bechecked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicleis refuelled, whichever occurs sooner.In addition, it is imperative that only an approvedgrade and specification of oil is used to avoid thepossibility of serious engine damage and prema-ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a falseeconomy that must be avoided if the maximumreliability and useful life is to be obtained from thevehicle.
SG030B02GK-E Recommended Oil A multi grade oil having a specification which meets A.P.I. specification of SH, SG or above isrecommended. The oil viscosity should be se-lected according to the operating environment ofthe engine by means of the table shown below.The engine oil recommendations are complete inthemselves and the use of additives is neitherrequired nor recommended. The use of engineoil additives may result in invalidation of thevehicle warranty.

6-14 SG140B1-E Compressor Drive Belt The air conditioning compressor drive belt should be checked to ensure freedom from damage or excessive wear and correct tension. The belt tension is correct when the belt deflects by about0.3 inches (8 mm) when a force of 98 N is appliedto the belt halfway between the compressor andcrankshaft pulleys. Adjustment of the belt shouldbe entrusted to a Hyundai dealer.
SG140C2-E Checking the Refrigerant
1. Start the engine and run at idle for several
minutes with the refrigeration system running at the coldest setting.
2. If the air coming out of the in-dash vents is not cold, have the air conditioning system in-spected by your Hyundai dealer.
CAUTION:Running the air conditioning system for ex-tended periods of time with a low refrigerantlevel may damage the compressor. A/C

SG140D1-E Off Season Maintenance The air conditioning must be run for ten minutes or so weekly during periods when the systemwould not normally be used to ensure that thecompressor and seals are lubricated. If this pre-caution is not observed the compressor sealsmay become stuck to the compressor shaft anddamaged when the system is next used resultingin a loss of refrigerant and damage to the com-pressor.

0.12 ~ 0.31 in. (3 ~ 8 mm)
The brake pedal freeplay should be checked with the engine turned off. The pedal to floor clear-ance should be checked with the engine runningand a load of 490 N applied to the pedal. If eithervalue is incorrect, the necessary adjustmentshould be performed by a Hyundai dealer. Pedalto floor clearance: 1.97 in. (50 mm) SG190A1-E DRIVE BELTS The various engine drive belts must be checked for condition, tension and freedom from damageand excessive wear. The tension of a new beltmust be checked after thirty minutes runningfollowing fitment of the new belt to allow for theinitial belt stretch.
SG200A1-E FUSIBLE LINKS
AS60310A
Melted Good
The fusible link prevents damage to the wiring harness in the event of an electrical systemmalfunction. Failure of a fusiblelink is indicativeof a serious overload condition having occurredand therefore the electrical system should bechecked by a Hyundai dealer before a replace-ment link is fitted. WARNING: Under no circumstances should a fusible linkbe replaced with anything other than a newlink of the same rating. The use of higherrated links or other means of connecting thecircuit will create a potential fire hazard.G190A01GK
