If the valve cap is lost from any of the valves, a replacement should be ob-tained and fitted at the first available opportunity. The valve cap prevents the ingress of dirt which may cause thevalve to stick and therefore leak and is part of the valve sealing function. Ensure that the spare wheel, jack and wheel nut wrench as well tools are correctly located in the boot of thevehicle to prevent damage and noise.

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 in the course of normal driving. The cause of oil consumption in a normal engine are asfollows;
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 duringengine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber. This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high tempera- ture combustion gases during thecombustion process.
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 minutes forthe oil to drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler cap rotating it in a clock- wise direction until tight.
The quantity of oil required to raise the
level from the minimum to maximumlevel is approximately 1 litre.
The distance between the "F" and "L"
marks is equal to about 1 liter(Petrol Engine)/1.2 liter(Diesel Engine) of oil.
!
CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil into a funnel. Do not overfill toprevent engine to damage.!
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radiator hose when checking the engine oil as it may be hot enoughto burn you. 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 accelera- tion and deceleration, compared tonormal driving.

Petrol engine The engine oil and filter must be changed at the time or mileage inter-val specified in the maintenance sched- ule. If the vehicle is operated under severe or adverse conditions, the oiland filter must be replaced more fre- quently. To replace the oil and filter, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the engine is at normal operating temperature and park the vehicle on level ground with the parking brake securely applied andthe engine turned off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the oil filler cap.
3. Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the displaced oil and re-move the drain plug from the sump.
CAUTION:
The oil being drained from the en-gine will be hot. Care should beexercised to prevent scalding. 4. When the oil has drained from the
sump, replace the drain plug usinga new gasket ensuring that the plug is not over tightened.
5. Remove the oil filter by rotating counterclockwise, using a propri-etary oil filter removal tool if neces- sary. Note that the oil filter willcontain approximately 0.5 litres of oil and this should be collected in a suitable receptacle.
6. Install a new oil filter having smeared
the sealing ring with clean oil androtating clockwise until the filter contacts the mounting and then a further one half turn. Do not over-tighten Tightening torque: 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m
7. Remove the engine oil level dip- stick.
8. Pour the specified quantity of the
recommended oil into the engine and replace the filler cap. Start the engine and ensure that no oil leaksexist. Turn off the engine and after a couple minutes, recheck the oil level.

WARNING:
Be very careful when draining theengine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you!
6. When the oil has stopped draining, replace the drain plug using a new gasket and retighten by turning it clockwise. Oil pan drain plug tightening torque : 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
7. Pull out the oil filter upper cap with element from the oil filter housing.Using a clean cloth, remove any dirtor oil accumulated around the oilfilter housing. 8. After mounting a new centrepipe O-
ring, new oil filter element and newO-ring to upper cap, install the up- per cap to oil filter housing and retighten by turning it clockwise. Donot over-tighten. Tightening torque : 2.5 kgf.m
CAUTION:
Do not use old oil filter upper cap O- ring and centrepipe O-ring.
!
9. Refill the crankcase with the recom- mended engine oil. Refer to the specification in chapter 9 for engine oil capacity.
CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oilinto a funnel. Do not overfill to preverd engine to camage.
! 10. Start the engine and check to be
sure no oil is leaking from the drain plug or oil filter.
11. Shut off the engine and recheck
the oil level.
NOTE:
o It is recommended that the en- gine oil and filter should be changed by an Hyundai authorised repairer.
o Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally accept-able manner. It is suggested that it be placed in a sealed container and taken to a service station formaybe reclaimation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put it into the household trash.
WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irritation or cancer of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolonged periodsof time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water as soon as possible after handling used oil.

3. Clean around the base of the plug to be removed, and install the plug socket ensuring that the ceramic insulator does not become dam- aged. Turn the socket counterclock-wise to remove the plug.
CAUTION:
Sparking plugs must only be cleaned using purpose designed equipment. Wire brushing may dam-age the centre electrode insulator causing misfiring to occur. Only the correct grade of sparking plugshould be used. Use of an incorrect grade may result in serious engine damage.
! Prior to installing a sparking plug, the
gap between the centre and outer elec- trodes must be checked and adjustedas necessary.
Adjustment is facilitated by bending
the outer electrode towards or away from the centre electrode. Under no circumstances should attempts bemade to adjust the position of the centre electrode.
4. Insert the sparking plug into the cylinder head and using a suitable plug socket, slowly rotate the spark-ing plug, (being careful not to cross- thread) until the plug contacts the seating area. Tighten the plug with plug socket by a further 1/2 to 3/4 of a furn only.
