Recommended Oil
1. Petrol Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE
viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature.Recommended viscosity is givenin the following illustration.
(2) A multi grade oil having a specifi- cation which meets A.P.I. specifi-cation of SG, SH or ABOVE isrecommended.DAILY OPERATING CHECKS
SG020B1-E The following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, whichever occurssooner.
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 op-
eration.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mir- rors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily operating checks indicate that any item of equipment related to the safety or roadworthiness of the ve-hicle is not functioning correctly.ENGINE OIL
G030A01FC-EAT The correct engine oil level is of para-
mount importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result inirreparable damage being sustained by the engine. The engine oil level must be checked on a daily basis,whenever the vehicle is refuelled or before starting a long trip, whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only
an approved grade and specificationof oil is used to avoid the possibility ofserious engine damage and prema- ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a false economy that must beavoided if the maximum reliability and useful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.

SG030C2-E Engine Oil Level The engine oil level should be checked with the engine at normal operating temperature and the vehicle parkedupon level ground. Prior to checking the level, the vehicle
should be allowed to stand for severalminutes after the engine has been switched off to allow the oil to drain back to the sump.
Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it with
a clean rag. Replace the dipstick fullyand withdraw again when the oil levelmay be read from the stick. Normal oil level is indicated when the oil is present between the two marks onthe stick. It is not necessary to add oil if the level is above the lower mark and in any case, oil must not beadded to the degree that the level exceeds the upper mark. Replace the dipstick fully after checking the level. HPG030C2-E
ENGINE OIL REPLENISHMENT
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.

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of engine oil
Engine oil has the primary function of
lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption
It is normal that an engine should
consume some engine oil whilst nor- mal driving.
The causes of oil consumption in a
normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pis- tons, 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 this oil into the combustion cham-ber.This oil with some oil of the cylin-der wall is burned by the high tem- perature combustion gases during the combustion process. o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. More engine oil may be consumed under severe driving conditions such as high speeds, frequent ac- celeration and deceleration, com-pared to normal driving.
!
To add oil to the engine, remove the filler cap by rotating in an counter-clockwise direction and pour engine oil into the engine. Before checking the level again, allow several minutesfor the oil to drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler cap rotating it in a clockwise direction until tight. The quantity of oil required to raise the level from the minimum to maximum level is approximately 1 litre (PetrolEngine)/1.4 litres (Diesel Engine).
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch theradiator hose when adding the en- gine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.

engine and ensure that no oil leaks exist. Turn off the engine and aftera couple minutes, recheck the oil level.
CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil by using a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage the engine.
WARNING:
Prolonged and repeated contact withused engine oils may result in seri- ous skin disorders including der-matitis and cancer. Avoid contact with skin as far as possible and always wash thoroughly after anycontact. Keep used oils out of reach of children. It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses and soil. Useonly authorized waste collection facilities including civic amenity sites and garages for the disposalof used oil and oil filters. If in doubt, contact the local authority for dis- posal instructions. WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot, since the system is pressurized and coolant may be ejected from the radiator resultingin scalding.
SG050B1-E
Coolant recommendations
Only ethylene glycol based coolant
with a corrosion inhibitor suited toaluminium alloy engine componentsshould be used in the cooling system. No further additives or inhibitors should be used. The coolant specificgravity should be checked as pre- scribed in the maintenance schedule to ensure adequate frost and corro-sion protection. In addition, the en- gine coolant must be replaced at the specified interval since the corrosioninhibitor properties deteriorate with time.
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK- ING AND REPLACING
SG050A1-E
! It is important to note that whilst an increase in the concentration of antifreeze gives an increase in the level of frost protection, a solution which is in excess of 65% anti freeze will resultin reduced frost protection and engine overheating. Therefore the recom- mended concentration of 50% shouldnot be exceeded for general use.The use of methanol based anti freezecompounds may result in engine over-heating and will invalidate the vehicle warranty. NOTE: It is imperative that vehicles fitted with an air conditioning systemhave a coolant concentration of the recommended strength at all times. The use of the air condition-ing system when the cooling sys- tem is filled with water only will result in the heater matrix freezingand subsequently bursting.

3. With the heater temperature control set to the "HOT" position, remove the radiator cap and open the radia-tor drain tap. 4. When the engine coolant has drained
completely, close the drain tap en-suring that this is not over tight- ened.
5. Prepare a suitable quantity of new engine coolant (refer to section 9)and pour this into the radiator.
6. Start the engine with the radiator cap still removed and continue to add coolant as the level decreases as air is expelled from the system. When the level remains constant,replace the radiator cap and replen- ish the coolant reservoir.
7. When the engine is hot, check to ensure that no coolant leaks are present.

!WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine coolant temperature and maysometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extreme caution when working near theblades of the cooling fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fan blade. As the engine coolant tem-perature decreases, the fan will au- tomatically shut off. This is a nor- mal condition.

CAUTION:
Engine coolant anti freeze must not be used in the windscreen washersystem since damage to the paintwork may result. Undiluted windscreen washer addi- tive must not be allowed to come into contact with the paintwork. If spillage occurs, flush the affectedarea immediately with water. Do not operate the windscreen washer for more than 15 seconds continu- ously or when the reservoir is empty since damage to the washerpump will result. The transmission lubricant should be
checked and/or changed at intervalsspecified in the maintenance sched-ule. Recommended Lubricant
Use only HYUNDAI GENUINE
PARTS MTF 75W/90 (API GL-4). CAUTION:
The transmission lubricant level
should only be checked when the engine is cold to prelude the pos- sibility of personal injury by con-tact with hot components.
1. To check the transmission lubricant level, the vehicle should be placed on level ground and the level plug removed with a suitable spanner.
2. If the level is correct, lubricant should begin to drip from the plug orifice. In this case the plug shouldbe replaced.If the level is incorrect, lubricantshould be added until it begins todrip from the plug orifice at which time the plug should be replaced.
