F010C01A-GAT
Specified Scheduled Procedures
These are the procedures such as
inspections, adjustments and replace- ments that are listed in the mainte-nance charts starting on page 5-4. These procedures must be performed at the intervals shown in the mainte-nance schedule to assure that your warranty remains in effect. Although it is strongly recommended that they beperformed by the factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians at your Hyundai dealer, these procedures maybe performed at any qualified service facility. F010D01A-GAT
General Checks
These are the regular checks you should perform when you drive your Hyundai or you fill the fuel tank. A list of these items will be found on page6-6.
F010A01A-GAT Service Requirements To assure that you receive the great- est number of kilometers of satisfying operation from your Hyundai, certain maintenance procedures must beperformed. Although careful design and engineering have reduced these to a minimum, those that are requiredare of the utmost importance.It is your responsibility to have thesemaintenance procedures performed to comply with the terms of the war- ranties covering your new Hyundai.The Service Passport supplied with your new vehicle provides further in- formation about these warranties.
F010B01A-AAT
Maintenance Requirements
The maintenance required for your
Hyundai can be divided into three main areas:
o Specified scheduled procedures
o General checks
o Do-it-yourself maintenance It is suggested that genuine Hyundai
service parts be used for any requiredrepairs or replacements. Other parts of equivalent quality such as engine oil, engine coolant, manual or autotransaxle oil, brake fluid and so on which are not supplied by Hyundai Motor Company or its distributor maybe used without affecting your war- ranty coverage but you should always be sure these are equivalent to thequality of the original Hyundai parts. Your Service Passport provides fur- ther information about your warrantycoverage.

Do-It-Yourself Maintenance
If you are mechanically inclined, own a few tools that are required and want to take the time to do so, you can inspect and service a number of items.For more information about doing it yourself, see Section 6. F010F01A-AAT
A Few Tips
Whenever you have your Hyundai ser- viced, keep copies of the service records in your glovebox. This will help ensure that you can document that the required procedures have been per- formed to keep your warranties in ef-fect. This is especially important when
service is not performed by an autho-rized Hyundai dealer. F020A01Y-GAT Inspection should be performed any time a malfunction is experienced or suspected. Receipts for all emissioncontrol system services should be retained to demonstrate compliance with conditions of the emissions sys-tem warranty.For severe usage maintenance re-
quirements, see page 5-7 of this sec-tion.

EXPLANATION OF SCHED- ULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
F060A01A-AAT F060M01A-AAT
o Engine Oil and Filter The engine oil and filter should be changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. If the caris being driven in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter changes are required. F060B01A-AAT
o Drive Belts Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace if necessary.Drive belts should be checked period- ically for proper tension and adjusted as necessary. After installing a new filter, run the
engine for several minutes, and checkfor leaks at the connections. Fuel fil- ters should be installed by trained technicians.
F060D01TB-GAT
o Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and
Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.Have a trained technician replace anydamaged or leaking parts immedi- ately. F060E01A-AAT
o Timing Belt
Inspect all parts related to the timingbelt for damage and deformation. Replace any damaged parts immedi-ately. F060G01A-AAT
o Vapor Hose and Fuel Filler Cap
The vapor hose and fuel filler cap should be inspected at those intervalsspecified in the maintenance sched- ule. Make sure that a new vapor hose or fuel filler cap is correctly replaced.
F060C01A-AAT
o Fuel Filter A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the vehicle may be driven, dam-age the emission system and cause hard starting. If an excessive amount of foreign matter accumulates in thefuel tank, the filter may require re- placement more frequently. WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. Highpressure pump, rail, injectors and high pressure pipes are subjected to high pressure even after the en-gine has been switched off. The fuel jet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it contactswith the body. People using pace- makers should not move closer than 30cm to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room with the engine running, since the high currents in the Common Rail sys-tem produce considerable magnetic fields.

F060H01A-AAT
o Air Cleaner Filter
A Genuine Hyundai air cleaner filter is
recommended when the filter is re- placed.
F060J01A-AAT
o Spark Plugs
(For Gasoline Engine)
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
F070C01A-AAT o Coolant The coolant should be changed at the intervals specified in the mainte-nance schedule.
F060F01A-AAT
o Vacuum, Crankcase Ventila-
tion Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-dence of heat and/or mechanical dam- age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessiveswelling indicate deterioration. Partic- ular attention should be paid to exam- ine those hose surfaces nearest tohigh heat sources, such as the ex- haust manifold. Inspect the hose routing to assure that the hoses do not come in contact with any heat source, sharp edges or moving component which might causeheat damage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make surethey are secure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immediately if there is any evidenceof deterioration or damage. F070B01A-GAT o Cooling System Check the cooling system part, such as radiator, coolant reservoir, hosesand connections for leakage and dam- age. Replace any damaged parts.
F060K01A-GAT
o Ignition timing
(Carburetor only)
For basic ignition timing, refer to the
Specifications in Section 9. F060L01A-GAT
o Idle speed and CO
(Carburetor only)
After warming up the engine, check and adjust the idle speed and CO. For detailed service procedures and speci- fication, refer to the Shop Manual.
