ZE020C1-E INTERIOR During the winter period, it is possible that the carpet within the passengercompartment may become wet. The carpet should not be allowed to remain in this condition for prolonged periodssince the carpet may begin to create musty smells and promote internal corrosion of the floorpan. GKE050A2-E Regular cleaning of the exterior paintwork serves two important func- tions. Firstly, the removal of abrasive dirt and contaminants will maintain thelustre of the paintwork and will prevent discolouration and dulling due to pro- longed contact.Secondly, the presence of damage through impact or abrasion will be ap- parent allowing early rectification to bemade thus preventing corrosion from becoming established and spreading beneath the paint film. To avoid "waterspotting" the vehicle should not be washed in direct sunlight particularly in the case of vehicles having dark bodycolours. The heat from the sun rays is absorbed by the paint film increasing the surface temperature. This actioncauses water used for washing to evaporate quickly leaving behind the deposits from the water and the sham-poo used.Use only a shampoo intended for thepurpose and ensure that the body workis thoroughly wet to soften the dirt film prior to removal. After removing the dirt film with a softsponge, the body work should be thor- oughly rinsed and then dried with a good quality chamois leather to pre-vent streaking or spotting of the paint work. Household detergents, solvents andabrasive cleaning materials should not be used in order to avoid damaging the paint film.High pressure car washes may cause water to enter your car. Plastic wheel covers should be cleanedusing a sponge and water. Cast alloy wheels should be cleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent. Abrasivecompounds must not be used since in the event of these damaging the lac- quer coating, oxidisation of the alu-minium wheel will occur, spoiling the appearance. The use of a toothbrush will facilitatecleaning between the wheel "spokes".

JE090A1-E Accident Repairs In the event of the body work sustain- ing damage, the following points shouldbe noted prior to repairs being under- taken. If body panels are replaced or re-paired, anti corrosion treatment must be applied to the repair area. The product used must be compatible withthose used in manufacture. It is rec- ommended that repairs are entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer to en-sure that replacement parts used are of the same high quality as those used in manufacture of the vehicle and that thecorrect repair methods and materials will ensure adequate levels of corrosion protection and the continued validity ofthe Anti Perforation Warranty. JE100A1-E Seat Belts Seat belts should be cleaned only with a mild soap solution. Strong deter- gents, solvents or bleaches may dam- age the belt webbing and thereforereduce the effectiveness of the belt. Belts which display signs of fraying, wear or cuts should be replaced.
JE110A1-E The soft trim and carpets should be maintained with the regular use of a vacuum cleaner. Heavy soiling should be removed with a dry cleaning agentrecommended for this purpose follow- ing the instructions of the product manufacturer. Paint thinner, solventsor other such cleaning materials should not be used since damage to the up- holstery may result.
JE120A1-E Windows A proprietary glass cleaner should be used to clean the inside of the win-dows. However, the rear heated windscreen must only be cleaned us- ing a light horizontal cleaning action.Care should be exercised to avoid the use of abrasive cleaners or contact with items of jewellery which may dam-age the heating elements. YE010A1-E To Clean Leather Upholstery (Not all models) In the normal course of use, leather upholstered surfaces will, like any material, pick-up dust and dirt. This dust and dirt MUST be cleaned off or itmay work into the surface of the leather, causing damage.

Fine leather needs care. This care, as with all fine things, need not be elabo-rate, but should include cleaning when necessary. Washing leather thoroughly with soap and water will keep yourleather lustrous, beautiful and ensure you have many years of wear. Take a piece of cheese cloth and usingany mild soap and lukewarm water, work up a good lather. Thoroughly wash the leather. Wipe clean with aslightly damp cloth and dry with soft cloth. Do this as often as the leather becomes soiled.During tanning operations, sufficient oils are incorporated through process- ing that none need be applied duringthe life of the leather. Oil applied to the finished surface will in no way help the leather and may do more harm thangood. Varnished and furniture polishes should NEVER be used under any conditions.

2MAINTENANCE AND SER- VICING REQUIREMENTS
SF020A1-E To ensure the continued reliability and safety of the vehicle, certain routinemaintenance operations are required at specific mileage or time intervals. It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to ensure that the maintenance schedules shown in both this OwnersManual and the Warranty and Service Passport are adhered to. The new vehicle warranty may be invalidated if the routine maintenance operations are not performed in line with the recommendations outlined andthe safety and durability of the vehicle adversely affected. It is recommended that all mainte- nance operations with the exception of the daily operating checks are en-trusted to a Hyundai authorised re- pairer to ensure that the latest repair and maintenance procedures andspecialised servicing tools are em- ployed. In addition, the use of genuine Hyundai replacement parts will ensurethat the vehicle safety and perfor- mance will not be compromised. NOTE:
The inspection and testing of cer-
tain electronic fuel injection/enginemanagement and automatic trans- mission control systems requirespecialised electronic equipment specifically designed for Hyundai vehicles. The use of general pur-pose electrical test equipment may result in damage to the control unit microprocessors. SF020C2-E
Specified Scheduled Procedures
The Specified scheduled procedures
are listed in the maintenance charts beginning at page 5-4. The operations specified must be performed at thetime or mileage intervals shown irre- spective of whether the mileage inter- val has been reached before the speci-fied time interval.
Certain lubricants and components
degrade with both time and mileage (e.g. engine oil and brake fluid) and therefore it is not permissable to basethe maintenance schedule upon mile- age alone. It is strongly recommended that the maintenance operations areperformed by the factory-trained or distributor-trained technicians at your Hyundai authorised repairer becauseof the need for specialised knowledge and tooling and to ensure that no possibility of invalidating the manufac-turers warranty exists. The maintenance schedules relate to
vehicles operated under normal condi-tions, vehicles which are operated under adverse conditions will require more frequent maintenance which isdescribed at page 5-7.

YF010A2-E In order to ensure continued reliability, safety and longevity, regular maintenance performed at the intervals specified is essential. The maintenance intervals specified are based both on time elapsed and mileage covered since the previous maintenance service was performed. However, under severe operating conditions, certain scheduled operations should beperformed at shorter intervals.Regular maintenance should be entrusted to a Hyundai authorised repairer who is best able to provide the expertise requiredto ensure optimum operational performance.In addition the use of Hyundai replacement parts and service consumables will ensure that the original build quality,operational performance and safety are maintained.

6ZF060M1-A
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. 6ZF060B2-A
o Drive belts Inspect all drive belts for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oilsaturation and replace if necessary. Drive belts should be checked periodi- cally for proper tension and adjustedas necessary. 6ZF060D1-A
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. 6ZF060E1-A
o Timing belt
Inspect all parts related to the timing
belt for damage and deformation. Replace any damaged parts immedi- ately.
6ZF060G1-E
o Vapour hose and fuel filler cap
The vapour hose and fuel filler cap
should be inspected at those intervalsspecified in the maintenance sched- ule. Make sure that a new vapour 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 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.
