G350A01A-GAT 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 while normal driving. The cause 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 the cylinder. High negative pressure generated during engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is
burned by the high temperature combustion gases during the combustion process.
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counter-
clockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clockwise. The distance between the "F" and "L" marks is equal to about 1 liter (Gasoline Engine)/ Diesel Engine (2.5 TCI)/ 1.4 liters (Diesel Engine (2.9 CRDi)) of oil.

The engine oil and filter should be changed at those intervals specified in the maintenance schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter changes are required. The procedure for changing the oil and filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set theparking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until the needle on the coolant temperature gauge moves above the lowest mark. Turn the engine off and place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic transmis- sion) or reverse gear (manual transmis- sion).
2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the drain plug by turning it counterclockwise with a wrench of the proper size. Be sure that a drain pan is in position to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drain plug.
WARNING: Be very careful when draining the engine oil
as it may be hot enough to burn you!
4. When the oil has stopped draining, replace
the drain plug using a new washer and retighten by turning it clockwise. Oil pan drain plug tightening torque: 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counter- clockwise with a oil filter wrench of theproper size. A certain amount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So be sure to have your drain pan in place under- neath it.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance with the instructions on the carton or on the filteritself. Do not over-tighten (Tightening

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.
