G350A01HP-GAT BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
(FOR DIESEL ENGINE (2.5 TCI))
E090A01HP
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as described in the illustration if the fuel supply is exhausted during travel, when the fuel filter is replaced, or if the vehicle is not used for a long time.
G240A01A-AAT POWER STEERING HOSESIt is suggested that you check the power steer- ing hose connections for fluid leakage at regular intervals. The power steering hoses should be replaced if there is severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or worn spots. Deterioration of the hose could cause premature failure.
NOTE: Do not start the engine when the powersteering oil reservoir is empty.
2. Pump the hand pump until there are no more
bubbles in the fuel coming out of the air plug. When doing this, place a cloth around the air plug to prevent the escaping fuel from spew- ing about.
3. Tighten the air bleed bolt when there are no more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump be- comes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there is no leakage of fuel.If in doubt, consult your nearest authorizedHYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING:
(1) Do not smoke or have any other open flame near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel system.
E090A02HP
1. Loosen the air bleed bolt at the top of the fuel
filter with a flat-bladed screwdriver or equiva- lent.
The power steering fluid level should be checked daily. To check the power steering fluid level, be surethe ignition is "OFF", then check to make cer- tain that the power steering fluid level is be- tween the "MAX" and "MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir. NOTE: Grinding noise from the power steering pump may be heard immediately after the engine is started in extremely cold condi- tions (below - 20°C). If the noise stops dur- ing warm up, there is no abnormal function in the system. If is due to a power steering fluid characteristic in extremely cold condi- tions. Recommended Fluid Use PSF-3 type fluid.

Especially on dry highway, never select the LOW. Driving on snowy or icy roads
Select the AUTO or LOW in accordance with
the road conditions, and then gradually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Driving on sandy or muddy roads
Select the LOW and then gradually depress the
accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Keep the pressure on the accelerator pedal constant aspossible, and drive at low speed. Climbing sharp grades
Select the LOW to maximize use the engine
torque.Descending sharp grades
Select the LOW, use the engine brake and
descend slowly.
(8) For speedometer test or inspection/mainte-
nance (I/M) program of full-time 4WD ve- hicle, use a four-wheel chassis dynamom-eter.
CAUTION: Never engage the parking brake whilst per-
forming these tests.
o In rare cases when it's unavoidable that a 4WD vehicle is to be inspected for speed- ometer test on 2WD roll tester, strictly followthe procedures next.
1. Check the tyre pressures recommended for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll tester for speedometer test as shown in theillustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the temporary free roller as shown in the illustration.
WARNING:Keep away from the front of the vehicle
whilst inspecting. This is very dangerous as the vehicle can jump forward and causeserious injury or death.
(9) When using tyre chains, always attach them to the rear wheels.
(10) I f the front or rear wheels get stuck in the
mud, do not spin them recklessly. The 4WD system could be damaged. Driving in Water
Select the LOW mode and drive through slowly.
D090E01HP
The maximum advisable wading depth is ap-
proximately 15.7 in.(40cm).
Before driving through water, such as when
crossing shallow streams, first check the depth of the water and the bottom of the river bed forfirmness. Drive slowly at the speed of 3mph(5 km/h) and avoid deep water.
Take all necessary safety measures to ensure
that water damage to the engine or other ve-hicle parts does not occur. Water entering the engine air intake will cause
severe engine damage.
Water can wash the grease from wheel bear-
ings, causing rusting and premature failure, andmay also enter the axles, transmission andtransfer case, reducing the gear oil's lubricatingqualities.

APPEARANCE CARE
4-2 JE070A1-E
POLISHING
The exterior paint work should be polished with
a proprietary wax polish when water no longer collects in bead form on the paint work. Theinstructions of the product manufacturer shouldbe adhered to. JE120A1-E
WINDOWS A proprietary glass cleaner should be used toclean the inside of the windows. However, therear heated windscreen must only be cleanedusing a light horizontal cleaning action. Careshould be exercised to avoid the use of abra-sive cleaners or contact with items of jewellerywhich may damage the heating elements.
Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a
sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels should becleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent.Abrasive compounds must not be used since inthe event of these damaging the lacquer coat-ing, oxidisation of the aluminium wheel willoccur, spoiling the appearance.
The use of a toothbrush will facilitate cleaning
between the wheel "spokes". and ensure that accidental spillages are imme-diately flushed with water.
Do not use abrasive cleaning materials whichmay damage the bumpers.Avoid subjecting the bumpers to high tempera-tures such as may be encountered in high bakepaint ovens. JE110A1-E
INTERIOR VALETING
The soft trim and carpets should be maintainedwith the regular use of a vacuum cleaner. Heavysoiling should be removed with a dry cleaningagent recommended for this purpose followingthe instructions of the product manufacturer.Paint thinner, solvents or other such cleaningmaterials should not be used since damage tothe upholstery may result.
JE060A1-E
STAIN/SPOT REMOVAL Should tree sap, dead insects or tar prove to be
difficult to remove from the paint film, turpentineor a proprietary paint cutting compound may beused. Ensure that the area to be cleaned is notrubbed intensively to prevent breaking throughthe colour coat and exposing the under coat.
JE080A1-E
BUMPER MAINTENANCE The special material from which the bumpers
are manufactured warrants special attention topreserve the appearance of the bumpers. Avoidcontact with battery electrolyte or brake fluid JE090A1-E
ACCIDENT REPAIRS
In the event of the body work sustaining dam-age, the following points should be noted priorto repairs being undertaken. If body panels are replaced or repaired, anti corrosion treatment must be applied to therepair area. The product used must be compat-ible with those used in manufacture. It is recom-mended that repairs are entrusted to a Hyundaidealer to ensure that replacement parts usedare of the same high quality as those used inmanufacture of the vehicle and that the correctrepair methods and materials will ensure ade-quate levels of corrosion protection and thecontinued validity of the Anti Perforation War-ranty. JE100A1-E
SEAT BELTS
Seat belts should be cleaned only with a mild soap solution. Strong detergents, solvens orbleaches may damage the belt webbing andtherefore reduce the effectiveness of the belt.Belts which display signs of fraying, wear or cutshould be replaced.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS 5-1
NOTE:
The inspection and testing of certain elec-
tronic fuel injection/engine management and automatic transmission control sys-tems require specialised electronic equip-ment specifically designed for Hyundai ve-hicles. The use of general purpose electri-cal test equipment may result in damage tothe control unit microprocessors.

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.

ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of paramount
importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil level mustbe checked on a daily basis, whenever thevehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip,whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an ap-
proved grade and specification of oil is used toavoid the possibility of serious engine damageand premature wear. The use of "budget price"oil is a false economy that must be avoided ifthe maximum reliability and useful life is to beobtained from the vehicle.
SG020B1-E
DAILY OPERATING CHECKS The following items should be checked on a
daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled,whichever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o 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 equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and opera- tion.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the daily
operating checks indicate that any item of equip-ment related to the safety or roadworthiness ofthe vehicle is not functioning correctly. G030B01HP-EAT
