EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
G050100AUN 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 fre-quent oil and filter changes are required.
G050200AUN Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil satu-
ration and replace if necessary. Drive
belts should be checked periodically forproper tension and adjusted as neces-
sary. G050300ATQ-UK
Fuel filter (cartridge) A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven, damage
the emission system and cause multiple
issues such as hard starting. If an exces-
sive amount of foreign matter accumu-
lates 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 a HYUNDAI authorised
repairer.
G050400AEN-UK
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con- nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections for leakage and damage. Have
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer replace
any damaged or leaking parts immedi-
ately.
WARNING -
Diesel only
Never work on injection system with engine running or within 30
seconds after shutting off engine.
High pressure pump, rail, injectorsand high pressure pipes are sub-
ject to high pressure even after the
engine stopped. The fuel jet pro-
duced by fuel leaks may cause seri-
ous injury, if it touch the body.
People using pacemakers should
not move than 30cm closer to theECU or wiring harness within the
engine room whilst engine is run-
ning, since the high currents in the
Common Rail system produce con-
siderable magnetic fields.
CAUTION
In case the fuel filter is clogged due to not conforming to the mainte-nance period, the fuel injection
equipment may supply the fuelinsufficiently, which may damagethe fuel injection equipment andcause the engine to stall at worst
cases.

ENGINE OIL
G060100AEN
Checking the engine oil level
1. Be sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature. 3. Turn the engine off and wait for a few
minutes (about 5 minutes) for the oil to
return to the oil pan.
4. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-insert it fully.
5. Pull the dipstick out again and check the level. The level should be betweenF and L. If it is near or at L, add enough oil to bring
the level to F.
Do not overfill.
Use a funnel to help prevent oil frombeing spilled on engine components.
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer to “Recommended lubricants and capaci- ties” in section 9.)
WARNING - Radiator hose
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking or
adding the engine oil as it may be
hot enough to burn you.
OTQ077002LOTQ077003L
CAUTION - Diesel engine
Overfilling the engine oil may cause
severe dieseling due to churning effect. It may lead to engine damageaccompanied with abrupt engine speed increment, combustion noiseand white smoke emission.
CAUTION
Do not overfill with engine oil. Engine damage may result.

Maintenance
G060200AEN-UK Changing the engine oil and filter
Have engine oil and filter changed by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer according
to the Maintenance Schedule.G070000AUN-UK The high-pressure cooling system has a
reservoir filled with year-round antifreeze
coolant. The reservoir is filled at the fac-
tory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at thebeginning of the winter season, and
before travelling to a colder climate. G070100AEN-UK
Checking the coolant level
WARNING
Prolonged and repeated contact
with used engine oils may result in
serious skin disorders including
dermatitis and cancer. Avoid con-
tact with skin as far as possible and
always wash thoroughly after any
contact. Keep used oils out of
reach of children. It is illegal to pol-
lute drains, water courses and soil.
Use only authorised waste collec-
tion facilities including civic ameni-
ty sites and garages for the dispos-
al of used oil and oil filters. If in
doubt, contact the local authority
for disposal instructions.

BRAKE AND CLUTCH (IF EQUIPPED) FLUID
G080100AEN-UK
Checking the brake fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir peri-
odically. The fluid level should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir.
Before removing the reservoir cap and
adding brake fluid, clean the area around
the reservoir cap thoroughly to prevent
brake fluid contamination. If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level. The level will fall with accumulated
mileage. This is a normal condition asso-
ciated with the wear of the brake linings.
If the fluid level is excessively low, have
the brake system checked by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Use only the specified brake fluid. (Refer
to “Recommended lubricants or capaci-ties” in section 9.)
Never mix different types of fluid.
WARNING - Brake fluid
When changing and adding brake
fluid, handle it carefully. Do not let it
come in contact with your eyes. Ifbrake fluid should come in contact
with your eyes, immediately flush
them with a large quantity of fresh
tap water. Have your eyes examined
by a doctor as soon as possible.
WARNING - Loss of brake fluid
In the event the brake system
requires frequent additions of fluid,
the vehicle should be inspected by
a HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
OTQ077006R
CAUTION
Do not allow brake fluid to contact the vehicle's body paint, as paint damage will result. Brake fluid,
which has been exposed to open air for an extended time should neverbe used as its quality cannot beguaranteed. It should be disposed
of properly. Don't put in the wrongkind of fluid. A few drops of miner- al-based oil, such as engine oil, inyour brake system can damage
brake system parts.

POWER STEERING FLUID
G090100AEN-UK
Checking the power steering fluid
level
With the vehicle on level ground, check
the fluid level in the power steering reser-
voir periodically. The fluid should be
between MAX and MIN marks on the
side of the reservoir at the normal tem-
perature.
Before adding power steering fluid, thor- oughly clean the area around the reser-
voir cap to prevent power steering fluidcontamination.
If the level is low, add fluid to the MAX
level.
✽✽ NOTICE
Check that the fluid level is in the
"HOT" range on the reservoir. If thefluid is cold, check that it is in the"COLD" range.
In the event the power steering system requires frequent addition of fluid, the
vehicle should be inspected by a
HYUNDAI authorised repairer.
Use only the specified power steering fluid. (Refer to "Recommended lubricants or capacities" in section 9.)
G090200AEN
Checking the power steering hose
Check the connections for oil leaks, dam-
age and twists in the power steering
hose before driving.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the power steering pump, do not operate thevehicle for prolonged periods
with a low power steering fluidlevel.
Never start the engine when the reservoir tank is empty.
When adding fluid, be careful that dirt does not get into the reser-voir.
Too little fluid can result in increased steering effort and/ornoise from the power steering
system.
The use of the non-specified fluid could reduce the effectiveness ofthe power steering system and cause damage to it.OTQ077007

✽✽NOTICE
“C” (COLD) range is for reference only
and should NOT be used to determinetransmission fluid level. ✽
✽
NOTICE
New automatic transmission fluid
should be red. The red dye is added sothe assembly plant can identify it asautomatic transmission fluid and distin-
guish it from engine oil or antifreeze.
The red dye, which is not an indicator of
fluid quality, is not permanent. As thevehicle is driven, the automatic trans-
mission fluid will begin to look darker.
The colour may eventually appear light
brown. Therefore, have a HYUNDAI
authorised repairer change the auto-matic transmission fluid according tothe Scheduled Maintenance.
Use only the specified automatic trans-
mission fluid. (Refer to “Recommended
lubricants and capacities” in section 9.) G100200AFD-UK Changing the automatic transmis- sion fluid
Have automatic transmission fluid
changed by a HYUNDAI authorisedrepairer according to the Maintenance
Schedule.
WARNING - Transmission fluid
The transmission fluid level should
be checked when the engine is at
normal operating temperature. This
means that the engine, radiator,
radiator hose and exhaust system
etc., are very hot. Exercise great
care not to burn yourself during
this procedure.
WARNING - Parking brake
To avoid sudden movement of the
vehicle, apply parking brake and
depress the brake pedal before
moving the shift lever.
CAUTION
Low fluid level causes transmis- sion slippage. Overfilling cancause foaming, loss of fluid and transmission malfunction.
The use of a non-specified fluid could result in transmission mal-function and failure.
