FUEL ECONOMY
The following suggestions are made to assist in
achieving the greatest degree of fuel economy.
o Maintaining a constant check on fuel con- sumption will enable the most economical use pattern and driving style to be adopted.
o Avoid using the vehicle for very short jour- neys if possible, particularly when a coldstart is involved.
o Ensure that tyre pressures are maintained at the correct level.
o Use only the recommended grade of fuel.
o Avoid carrying unnecessary weight, and if a roof rack is in use, remove it as soon as possible after use.
o Anticipate the road and conditions ahead to enable adjustments in speed to be madesmoothly. Avoid heavy acceleration andsharp braking.
o Avoid cruising at unnecessary high speeds.
o Always ensure that the periodic maintenance services are performed by a Hyundai dealer at the time and/or mileage intervals speci-fied.
o Use the air conditioner only when neces- sary. HPC090A2-E MANUAL TRANSMISSION
The five speed fully synchronized transmission
is controlled by a floor mounted shift lever upon which the shift pattern is indicated. It is impor-tant that when changing gear, the clutch pedalis fully depressed to avoid transmission dam-age. CAUTION:
o Do not attempt to engage reverse gear when the car is in motion.
o To avoid damaging the selector mecha- nism, do not use the gear shift lever as a hand rest. Release the lever immediatelythe shift is completed.
o To avoid premature clutch wear, do not use the clutch pedal as a foot rest, anddo not hold the vehicle on a gradientusing the clutch.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE EN- GINE FOR TURBO CHARGER INTER- COOLER (Diesel Engine)
(1) Do not race the engine or sudden accelerate
the engine immediately after starting it. If the engine is cold, allow the engine to idle forseveral seconds before it is driven to ensuresufficient lubrication of the turbo chargerunit.
(2) After high speed or extended driving, requir- ing a heavy engine load, the engine shouldbe allowed to idle, as shown in the chartbelow, before turning it off. This idle time will allow the turbo charger to cool prior to shutting the engine off.
Required Idle Time
High speed driving Driving Condition
Normal drivingNot necessary About 20 seconds About 1 minute
Up to 62 mph
Up to 50 mph
Steep mountain slopes or contin-
ued driving in excess of 62 mphAbout 2 minutes
WARNING: Do not turn the engine off immediately after
it has been subjected to a heavy load. Doingso may cause severe damage to the engineor turbo charger unit.

NOTE:
The inspection and testing of certain elec-

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING REQUIREMENTS To ensure the continued reliability and safety
of the vehicle, certain routine maintenance operations are required at specific mileage ortime intervals.
It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to
ensure that the maintenance schedules shownin both this Owner's Manual and the Warrantyand Service Passport are adhered to.
The new vehicle warranty may be invalidated
if the routine maintenance operations are notperformed in line with the recommendationsoutlined and the safety and durability of thevehicle adversely affected.
It is recommended that all maintenance op-
erations with the exception of the daily oper-ating checks are entrusted to a Hyundai dealerto ensure that the latest repair and mainte-nance procedures and specialized servicingtools are employed. In addition, the use ofgenuine Hyundai replacement parts will en-sure that the vehicle safety and performancewill not be compromised. DF020C1-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures The specified scheduled procedures are listed
in the maintenance charts beginning at page5-2. The operations specified must be per-formed at the time or mileage intervals shownirrespective of whether the mileage interval has been reached before the specified time interval.
Certain lubricants and components degrade
with both time and mileage (eg, engine oil andbrake fluid) and therefore it is not permissableto base the maintenance schedule upon mile-age alone. It is strongly recommended thatthe maintenance operations are performed bya Hyundai dealer because of the need forspecialized knowledge and tooling and to en-sure that no possibility of invalidating themanufacturers warranty exists.
The maintenance schedules relate to vehicles
operated under normal conditions, vehicleswhich are operated under adverse conditionswill require more frequent maintenance whichis described at page 5-5. DF020F1-E
SERVICE HISTORY
It is important that all scheduled maintenance
services are recorded in the warranty andservice passport to ensure that proof of main-tenance is available when warranty service isrequired.

REGULAR SERVICING
In order to ensure continued reliability, safety and longevity, regular
maintenance performed at the intervals specified is essential. The maintenance intervals specified are based both on time elapsed andmileage covered since the previous maintenance service was per-formed. However, under severe operating conditions, certain scheduledoperations should be performed at shorter intervals. Regular maintenance should be entrusted to a Hyundai dealer who is
best able to provide the expertise required to ensure optimum opera-tional performance.
In addition the use of Hyundai replacement parts and service consumables
will ensure that the original build quality, operational performance andsafety are maintained.

If the indicated oil level is at or below the lower
mark of the dipstick, oil should be added until the level is at or below the upper mark.
To add oil to the engine, remove the filler cap by
rotating in an counterclockwise direction andpour engine oil into the engine. Before checkingthe level again, allow several minutes for the oilto drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler caprotating it in a clockwise direction until tight.
The quantity of oil required to raise the level
from the minimum to maximum level is approx-imately 1 litre (Petrol Engine)/1.4 litres (DieselEngine). G350A01A-EAT
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 whilst normal driving.
The causes 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 thecylinder.High negative pressure generated duringengine operation sucks some of this oil intothe 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. More engine oil may be consumed under severe driving conditions such as highspeeds, frequent acceleration and decelera-tion, compared to normal driving.

corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specifiedtime or mileage interval to ensure continuedsafe operation of the system. Brake fluid willcause rapid and serious damage topaintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, theaffected area must be rinsed with waterimmediately. Do not allow brake fluid tocome into contact with the eyes or to beingested and ensure that fluid is safely storedaway form the reach of children.
SG130A1-C
CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID To Check the Clutch Fluid The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder
should be checked when performing other un- der bonnet checks. The system should bechecked for leakage at the same time.
Ensure that the clutch fluid level is always
between the "MAX" and "MIN" level markingson the fluid reservoir. Fill as required. Fluid lossindicates a leak in the clutch system whichshould be inspected and repaired immediately. SG130B2-E
Adding Fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming to DOT
3 or DOT 4 should be used. The reservoir capmust be fully tightened to avoid contaminationfrom foreign matter or moisture.
CAUTION: Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never
be stored in an unsealed container. Do not allow petroleum base fluid to contaminatethe brake fluid since damage to the rubberseals of the system may result.
WARNING: Brake fluid will cause rapid and serious
damage to paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the affected area must be rinsedwith water immediately. Do not allow brakefluid to come into contact with the eyes or tobe ingested and ensure that fluid is safelystored away form the reach of children.
