C160F01A-AAT Check Spark Plugs and Ignition System Inspect your spark plugs as described in Section 6 and replace them if neces-sary. Also check all ignition wiring and components to be sure they are not cracked, worn or damaged in any way. C160G01A-GAT To Keep Locks from Freezing To keep the locks from freezing, squirt an approved de-icer fluid or glycerineinto the key opening. If a lock is cov- ered with ice, squirt it with an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If thelock is frozen internally, you may be able to thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the heated key with careto avoid injury. NOTE: The proper temperature for using the immobilizer key is from -40°C to80°C. If you heat the immobilizer key over 80°C to open the frozen lock, it may cause damage to thetransponder in its head.
C160D01A-AAT Check Battery and Cables Winter puts additional burdens on the battery system. Visually inspect thebattery and cables as described in Section 6. The level of charge in your battery can be checked by your Hyun-dai dealer or a service station. C160E01A-AAT Change to "Winter Weight" Oil if Necessary In some climates it is recommended that a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be used during cold weather. SeeSection 9 for recommendations. If you aren't sure what weight oil you should use, consult your Hyundai dealer.
C160I01A-AAT Don't Let Your Parking Brake Freeze Under some conditions your parking brake can freeze in the engaged posi- tion. This is most likely to happenwhen there is an accumulation of snow or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the brakes are wet. If there is a riskthe parking brake may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or infirst or reverse gear (manual transaxle) and block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then release the parkingbrake.
C160H01A-AAT Use Approved Anti-Freeze in WindowWasher System To keep the water in the window washer system from freezing, add an approved anti-freeze solution in accordance withinstructions on the container. Window washer anti-freeze is available from Hyundai dealers and most auto partsoutlets. Do not use engine coolant or other types of anti-freeze as these may damage the finish.

The engine oil quality should meet
the following classification.
API SJ, SL or ABOVE, ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE G030B01JM
NOTE:
o For good fuel economy, SAE 5W-20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 en-gine oil is preferred regardlessof regional option and engine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is not available, second- ary recommended engine oil forcorresponding temperature range can be used. Wait five minutes, then remove the
dipstick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw it again. Then note the highest level the oil has reached on the dipstick. It should bebetween the upper ("FULL") and lower ("LOW") range.
