o Engine Oil and Filter
The engine oil and filter should be changed at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. If the car is 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 periodi-cally for proper tension and adjusted as necessary. 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 amountof foreign matter accumulates in the fuel tank, the filter may require re- placement more frequently. 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. WARNING (Diesel only):
Never work on injection system with
engine running or within 30 sec- onds after shutting off engine. High pressure pump, rail, injectors andhigh pressure pipes are subjected to high pressure even after the en- gine has been switched off. The fueljet produced by fuel leaks may cause serious injury, if it contacts with the body. People using pacemakersshould not move closer than 30cm to the ECU or wiring harness within the engine room with the enginerunning, since the high currents in the Common Rail system produce considerable magnetic fields.

o Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and
Connections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and connections for leakage and damage. Have a trained technician replace any damaged or leaking parts immediately.

If the oil level is close to or below the "L" mark, add oil until it reaches the "F" mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again.
Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clock-
wise.
The distance between the "F" and "L"marks is equal to about 1 liter (Gaso- line Engine/Diesel Engine (2.5 TCI))/ 1.4 liters (Diesel Engine (2.9 CRDi))of oil. G350A01A-GAT
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 while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil con-sumption 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 thecylinder wall when a piston movesdownwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated dur- ing engine operation sucks someof the 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 duringthe combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition.

CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil

WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when adding the en-gine oil as it may be hot enough toburn you.

10CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL AND FILTER
!
The engine oil and filter should be changed at those intervals specified in the maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5. If the car is being driven in severe conditions, more frequent oiland filter changes are required. The procedure for changing the oil and filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set the parking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until the needle on the coolant temperature gauge moves above the lowestmark. Turn the engine off and place the gear selector lever in "P" (auto- 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 gasket and retighten by turning itclockwise. Oil pan drain plug tightening torque: 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m

2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the drain plug by turning it counter-clockwise with a wrench of theproper size. Be sure that a drain pan is in position to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drainplug.

11CHECKING AND CHANG- ING THE ENGINE COOL- ANT
!
G050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. When the engine is hot, the engine coolant is underpressure and may erupt through the opening if the cap is removed. You could be seriously burned if you donot observe this precaution. Do not remove the radiator cap until the radiator is cool to touch.
!
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counterclockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper size. A cer- tain amount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So besure to have your drain pan in place underneath it.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance with the instructions on the cartonor on the filter itself. Do not over- tighten (Tightening torque: Gaso-
line- 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m, Diesel - 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m) . Be sure that the
mounting surface on the engine is clean and that the old gasket is removed completely. Lubricate the new gasket on the filter with cleanengine oil before installation.
7. Remove the engine oil level dip- stick.
8. Refill the crankcase with the rec- ommended engine oil slowly. Referto the specification in chapter 9 for engine oil capacity.
! CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil by using a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage the engine. 9. Start the engine and check to be
sure no oil is leaking from thedrain plug or oil filter.
10.Shut off the engine and recheck
the oil level.
NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil
in an environmentally acceptable manner. It is suggested that it be placed in a sealed container andtaken to a service station for recla- mation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put it into the house-hold trash.
WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irrita-
tion or cancer of the skin if left incontact with the skin for prolongedperiods of time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water as soon as possible afterhandling used oil.

14CHANGING THE AIR CLEANER FILTER
!
6. Start the engine, top off the radiator
with water and then add coolant to the reservoir until the level is be- tween "LOW" and "FULL".
7. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and check to be sure the draincocks are fully closed and not leak- ing.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled byengine coolant temperature and may sometimes operate even when the engine is not running. Use extremecaution when working near the blades of the coolant fan so that you are not injured by a rotating fanblade. As the engine coolant tem- perature decreases, the fan will au- tomatically shut off. This is a nor-mal condition. G070A03Y-AAT The replacement of air cleaner filter is
performed in the following manner.
1. Unsnap the clips around the cover.
2. When this is done, the cover can be lifted off, the old filter removed and the new filter put in its place.
Genuine Hyundai replacement parts
are recommended. HHP5013
!
CAUTION:
o Operating your vehicle without a proper air cleaner filter in place can result in excessive engine wear.
o When removing the air cleaner filter, be careful that dust or dirtdoes not enter the air intake. These may result in damage to the air cleaner filter.

CHECKING THE TRANS- MISSION OIL (MANUAL)FILLING THE WASHER RESERVOIR
CAUTION:
o Radiator antifreeze (engine cool- ant) should not be used in the washer system because it will damage the car's finish.
o The washer should not be oper- ated if the washer reservoir isempty. This can damage the washer fluid pump.
! G100A04HP-GAT Transmission lubricant in the manual transmission should be checked at those intervals specified in the ve-hicle maintenance schedule in Sec- tion 5.
