If you notice anything that does not operate correctly or appear to be functioning correctly,inspect it carefully and seek assistance fromyour Hyundai dealer if service is needed. Adequate care of your vehicle at regular inter- vals serves to preserve the value and appear-ance as long as possible. Some maintenance items can be carried out bythe owner (Consumer Information), while othershould be done only by an authorized dealer(Periodic Inspection and Maintenance). Thissection describes only those items which canbe carried out by the owner. In the event amalfunction or other problem is discovered,have it corrected by an authorized HYUNDAIdealer. This section contains information oninspection maintenance procedures that youcan do yourself, if you so desire. Follow theinstructions and cautions for each of the vari-ous procedures. When checking or servicing the inside of the engine compartment, be sure the engine isstopped and has had a chance to cool down. Ifit is necessary to do work in the engine com-partment with the engine running, be especiallycareful that your clothing, hair, etc., becomesnot caught by the fan, V-belts, or other movingparts.

If the oil level is below the specified limit,
remove the cap located on the cylinder head cover and add enough oil to raise the level towithin the specified range. Be sure to use thespecified engine oil and do not mix varioustypes of oil. Also, avoid mixing different makesof oil together if possible. After adding oil, closethe cap securely.

Engine oil consumption
Engine oil consumption
It is normal that an engine should consumesome 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 the
cylinder. High negative pressure generatedduring engine operation sucks some of the
oil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall isburned 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. Theengine oil is more consumed under severe
driving conditions such as high speeds andfrequent acceleration and deceleration than
normal driving condition.

A translucent coolant reservoir tank is in the
engine compartment. The coolant level in this tank should be kept
between the "LOW" and "FULL" marks when measured while the engine is warm and idling.
The cooling system is a closed system and
normally the loss of coolant should be veryslight. A noticeable drop in the coolant levelcould indicate leakage.
If this occurs, have the system checked at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon as pos-sible.
If the level should drop below the "LOW" level
on the reservoir tank, add coolant.
Also, if the reservoir tank is completely empty,
remove the radiator cap and add coolant untilthe level reaches the filler neck.

Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. The brake fluid level must be between the "MAX" and "MIN" marks on the reservoir.The fluid level falls slightly with wear of thebrake pads but it does not indicate any abnor-mality. If the brake fluid level falls markedly in a short time, it indicates leaks from the brake system.In such a case, have your vehicle checked byan authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Use SAE J1703 (or DOT3 or DOT 4) or equiva-lent type brake fluid. On a vehicle with the brake fluid warning lamp, the brake fluid level is monitored by a float.When the brake fluid level falls to below the"MIN" mark, the brake fluid warning lamp lightsup.

2. Remove the transmission dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far as it will go, then remove it again. Now check thefluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the"HOT" range on the dipstick.
3. If the transmission fluid level is low, use a funnel to add transmission fluid through thedipstick tube until the level reaches the"HOT" range. Do not overfill, otherwise thetransmission could be damaged.
