WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
21
IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYSD120A01CM-AATIf you lose your keys, many Hyundai deal-
ers can make you a new key if you have
your key number. If you lock the keys inside
your car and you cannot obtain a new key,
many Hyundai dealers can use special
tools to open the door for you.
Information about immobilizer keys (if in-
stalled) will be found on page 1-4.
!
CAUTION:
If the car is being towed with all four
wheels on the ground, it can be towed
only from the front. Be sure that the
transaxle is in neutral. If your vehicle is
equipped with an automatic transaxle,
do not tow at speeds greater than 30 mph
(50 km/h) and for more than 15 miles (25
km).
Be sure the steering is unlocked by plac-
ing the key in the "ACC" position. A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to
operate the steering and brakes. (3)Attach a tow cable, chain or strap to the
towing hook on the rear bumper.
NOTE:o To avoid serious damage to your AWD
vehicle, limit the towing to 10 mph (15
km/h) and not for more than 1 mile (1.5
km) at ANY TIME.
o Before towing, check the level of the
automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below
the 75°C range on the dipstick, add
fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing
dolly must be used.
CAUTION:
If the Engine is not running, the power
assist for the brakes and steering will
not work so steering and braking will be
much harder than usual.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND APPEARANCE CARE
5
E030D01A-AATWhen to Wax AgainYou should polish and wax the car again
when water no longer beads on a clean
surface but spreads out over a larger area.
E030C01A-AATPolishing and WaxingAlways wash and dry the car before polish-
ing or waxing or using a combination
cleaner and wax. Use a good quality com-
mercial product and follow the
manufacturer's directions on the container.
Polish and wax the bright trim pieces as
well as the paint.E030B01A-AATSpot CleaningDon't use gasoline, strong solvents or cor-
rosive cleaning agents. These can dam-
age the finish of the car. To remove road
tar, use turpentine on a clean, soft cloth. Be
gentle.
To remove dead insects or tree sap, use
warm water and mild soap or car-washing
solution. Soak the spot and rub gently. If
the paint has lost its luster, use a commer-
cial car-cleaning polish.
E030E01A-AATMaintaining BumpersSpecial precautions must be observed to
preserve the appearance of the bumpers
on your Hyundai. They are:
o Be careful not to spill battery electrolyte
or hydraulic brake fluid on the bumpers.
If you do, wash it off immediately with
clear water.
o Be gentle when cleaning the bumper
surfaces. They are made of soft plastic
and the surface can be damaged if
mistreated. Do not use abrasive clean-
ers. Use warm water and mild soap or
car-washing solution.
o Do not expose the bumpers to high tem-
peratures. For example, if you have
your car repainted, do not leave the
bumpers on the car if the car is going to
be placed in a high-temperature paint
booth.
!
CAUTION:
o Water washing in the engine compart-
ment including high pressure water
washing may cause the failure of elec-
trical circuits located in the engine
compartment.
o Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electrical/elec-
tronic components inside the vehicle
as this may damage them.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS2
F010C01A-AATSpecified Scheduled ProceduresThese are the procedures such as inspec-
tions, adjustments and replacements that
are listed in the maintenance charts start-
ing on page 5-4. These procedures must
be performed at the intervals shown in the
maintenance schedule to assure that your
warranty remains in effect. Although it is
strongly recommended that they be per-
formed by the trained technicians at your
Hyundai dealer, these procedures may be
performed at any qualified service facility.
It is suggested that genuine Hyundai ser-
vice parts be used for any required repairs
or replacements. Other parts of equivalent
quality such as engine oil, engine coolant,
manual or auto transaxle oil, brake fluid
and so on which are not supplied by
Hyundai Motor Company or its distributor
may be used without affecting your war-
ranty coverage but you should always be
sure these are equivalent to the quality of
the original Hyundai parts. Your Owner's
Handbook provides further information
about your warranty coverage.
F010A01A-AATService RequirementsTo ensure that you receive the greatest
number of miles of satisfying operation
from your Hyundai, certain maintenance
procedures must be performed. Although
careful design and engineering have re-
duced these to a minimum, those that are
required are of the utmost importance.
It is your responsibility to have these main-
tenance procedures performed to comply
with the terms of the warranties covering
your new Hyundai. The Owner's Hand-
book supplied with your new vehicle pro-
vides further information about these war-
ranties.
F010B01A-AATMaintenance RequirementsThe maintenance required for your
Hyundai can be divided into three main
areas:
o Specified scheduled procedures
o General checks
o Do-it-yourself maintenance

F060D01A-AATo Fuel Lines, Fuel Hoses and Con-
nectionsCheck the fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections for leakage and damage. Have a
trained technician replace any damaged
or leaking parts immediately.F060B01A-AATo Drive BeltsInspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts,
cracks, excessive wear or oil saturation
and replace if necessary. Drive belts should
be checked periodically for proper tension
and adjusted as necessary.
F060M01A-AATo Engine Oil and FilterThe engine oil and filter should be changed
at the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule. If the car is being driven
in severe conditions, more frequent oil and
filter changes are required.F060C01A-AATo Fuel FilterA clogged filter can limit the speed at which
the vehicle may be driven, damage the
emission system and cause hard starting.
If an excessive amount of foreign matter
accumulates in the fuel tank, the filter may
require replacement more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine
for several minutes, and check for leaks at
the connections. Fuel filters should be
installed by trained technicians.EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED

F070F01A-AATo Brake Hoses and LinesVisually check for proper installation, chaf-
ing, cracks, deterioration and any leak-
age. Replace any deteriorated or dam-
aged parts immediately.F070E06A-AATo Automatic Transaxle FluidThe fluid level should be in the “HOT”
range of the dipstick, after the engine and
transaxle are at normal operating tem-
perature. Check the automatic transaxle
fluid level with the engine running and the
transaxle in neutral, with the parking brake
properly applied. Use HYUNDAI GENU-
INE ATF SP III, DIAMOND ATF SP III, SK
ATF SP III or other brands meeting the SP
III specification approved by Hyundai Motor
Co. when adding or changing fluid. Using
the wrong ATF may result in damage to the
ATM.

looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
F070G02A-AATo Brake FluidCheck brake fluid level in the brake fluid
reservoir. The level should be between
"MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the
reservoir. Use only hydraulic brake fluid
conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4.
F070K01A-AATo Exhaust Pipe and MufflerVisually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler
and hangers for cracks, deterioration, or
damage. Start the engine and listen care-
fully for any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten
