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.F060B01NF-GATo 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.
F060M01A-AATo Engine Oil and FilterThe 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.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.
F060F01A-AATo Vacuum, Crankcase Ventilation
HosesInspect the surface of hoses for evidence
of heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard
and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts,
abrasions, and excessive swelling indicate
deterioration. Particular attention should
be paid to examine those hose surfaces
nearest to high heat sources, such as the
exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that the
hoses do not come in contact with any heat
source, sharp edges or moving component
which might cause heat damage or
mechanical wear. Inspect all hose
connections, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure they are secure,
and that no leaks are present. Hoses should
be replaced immediately if there is any
evidence of deterioration or damage.

F070L01A-AATo Suspension Mounting BoltsCheck the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.F070K01A-AATo Exhaust Pipe and MufflerVisually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler
and
hangers for cracks, deterioration, or
damage. Start the engine and listen
carefully for any exhaust gas leakage.
Tighten connections or replace parts as
necessary.F070J01A-AATo Brake Pads, Calipers and RotorsCheck the pads for excessive wear, discs
for run out and wear, and calipers for fluid
leakage.
F070Q01A-AATo Air Conditioning RefrigerantCheck the air conditioning lines and con-
nections for leakage and damage. Check
air conditioning performance according to
the relevant shop manual if necessary.
F070P01A-AATo Drive Shafts and BootsCheck the drive shafts, boots and clamps
for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease.F070N01A-AATo Power Steering Pump, Belt and
HosesCheck the power steering pump and hoses
for leakage and damage. Replace any
damaged or leaking parts immediately.
Inspect the power steering belt for evidence
of cuts, cracks, excessive wear, oiliness
and proper tension. Replace or adjust it if
necessary.F070M01Y-AATo Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint, Upper
Arm Ball JointWith the vehicle stopped and engine off,
check for excessive free-play in the
steering wheel.
Check the linkage for bends or damage.
Check the dust boots and ball joints for
deterioration, cracks, or damage. Replace
any damaged parts.

CHECKING THE ENGINE OILG030B01O-AATRecommended OilThe engine oil quality should meet the
following classification.
API SL or SM,
ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE
G030B01JM-U G030A01A-AAT
Engine oil is essential to the performance
and service of the engine. It is suggested
that you check the oil level at least once a
week in normal use and more often if you
are on a trip or driving in severe conditions.

Drive belts should be checked periodi-
cally for proper tension. At the same time,
belts should be examined for cracks, wear,
fraying or other evidence of deterioration
and replaced if necessary.
When a new belt is replaced, the belt
should be located within the pulley of flat
idler.
Belt routing should also be checked to be
sure there is no interference between the
belts and other parts of the engine.NOTE:Drive belt tension is adjusted automati-
cally by the auto tensioner.
CHECKING AND REPLACING
FUSESG200A01A-AATReplacing a Fusible LinkA fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits
from the battery are ever overloaded, thus
preventing damage to the entire wiring
harness. (This could be caused by a short
in the system drawing too much current.) If
this ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer
determine the cause, repair the system
and replace the fusible link. The fusible
links are located in a relay box in the
engine compartment for easy inspection.

o V: Speed Rating. The speed rating
denotes the speed at which a tire is
designed to be driven for extended
periods of time. The ratings range
from "A" to "Z" (98 to 186 MPH).
3. TIN (Tire Identification Number) for
new tire (example: DOT XX XX XXX
XXXX)
o DOT: Abbreviation for the "Depart-
ment of Transportation". The sym-
bol can be placed above, below or
to the left or right of the Tire Iden-
tification Number. It indicates the
tire is in compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation Mo-
tor Vehicle Safety Standards.
o 1st two-digit code: Manufacturer's
identification mark
o 2nd two-digit code: Tire size
o 3rd three-digit code: Tire type code
(Optional)
o 4th four-digit code: Date of Manu-
factureo Four numbers represent the week
and year the tire was built. For
example, the numbers 3105 means
the 31st week of 2005.
4. Tire ply composition and material
The number of layers or plies of
rubbercoated fabric in the tire. Tire
manufacturers also must indicate
the materials in the tire, which in-
clude steel, nylon, polyester, and
others. The letter "R" means radial
ply construction; the letter "D" means
diagonal or bias ply construction;
and the letter "B" means belted-bias
ply construction.
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount
of air pressure that should be put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation pressure. Refer
to the Tire and Loading Information
label for recommended inflation pres-
sure. 1. Manufacturer or Brand name
o Manufacturer or Brand name is
shown.
2. Tire size
(example: P215/60R16 94V)
o The "P" indicates the tire is de-
signed for passenger vehicles.
o Three-digit number (215): This num-
ber gives the width in millimeters
of the tire from sidewall edge to
sidewall edge.
o Two-digit number (60): This num-
ber, known as the aspect ratio,
gives the tire's ratio of height to
width.
o R: The "R" stands for radial.
o Two-digit number (16): This num-
ber is the wheel or rim diameter in
inches.
o Two digit number (94): This num-
ber is the tire's load index. It is a
measurement of how much weight
each tire can support.
