4CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
G030A02O-GAT Recommended Oil Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil levelat least once a week in normal use and more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions. The engine oil quality should meet the following classification. API Service SM* or above, ILSAC GF-4 or above
* If the API service SM engine oil is
not available in your country, you are able to use API service SL.

o It is recommended that the engine oil and filter should be changed by an authorised Hyundai dealer.
o Always dispose of used engine oil
in an environmentally acceptablemanner. It is suggested that it be placed in a sealed container and taken to a service station for recla-mation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or put it in with the house- hold trash. WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irritationor cancer of the skin if left in contactwith the skin for prolonged periods of time. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water as soon aspossible after handling used oil.
G030D01TG-DAT Adding Oil
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 litre of oil.

CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID
G120E02A-AAT Adding Brake Fluid
WARNING:
Handle brake fluid carefully. It can damage your vision if it gets into your eyes. Use only DOT 3 or DOT4 specification fluid from a sealed container. Do not allow the fluid can or reservoir to remain open anylonger than required. This will pre- vent entry of dirt and moisture which can damage the brake system and cause improper operation. To add brake fluid, first wipe away any dirt then unscrew the fluid reservoircap. Slowly pour the recommended fluid into the reservoir. Do not overfill. Carefully replace the cap on the reser-voir and tighten. G130A01A-DAT (If Installed) To Check the Clutch Fluid The clutch fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when per- forming other under bonnet services. The system should be checked forleakage at the same time. Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is between the "MAX" and"MIN" level markings on the fluid reser- voir. Fill as required. Fluid loss indi- cates a leak in the clutch system whichshould be inspected and repaired im- mediately. Consult your Hyundai dealer.
G120D01A-AAT To Check the Fluid Level
The fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir should be checked periodically. The level should be between the "MIN"and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or below the "MIN" mark, carefully add fluid to bringit up to "MAX". Do not overfill.

I090A003MC-DAT WHEN TO REPLACE TYRES
The original tyres on your car have tread wear indicators. The location of tread wear indicators is shown by the"TWI" or "
" marks, etc., The tread
wear indicators appear when the tread depth is 1.6 mm (0.06 in). The tyreshould be replaced when these appear as a solid bar across two or more grooves of the tread. Always replaceyour tyres with those of the recom- mended size. If you change wheels, the new wheel's rim width and offset mustbe those specified by Hyundai. WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tyres is dan- gerous! Worn-out tyres can causeloss of braking effectiveness, steering control and traction. When replacing tyres, never mix radialand bias-ply tyres on the same car. If you replace radial tyres with bias-ply tyres, they must be in-stalled in sets of four.
o Using tyres and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes maycause unusual handling charac- teristics that may cause death, serious injury or property dam-age.
o Tyres degrade over time, even when
they are not being used. Regard-less of the remaining tread, it is recommended that tyres generally be replaced after six (6) years ofnormal service. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditions can accelerate the ag-ing process. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tyre failure, which could lead to a lossof control and an accident involv- ing serious injury or death.

Wear indicator
I070A01A-DAT TYRE BALANCING A tyre that is out of balance may affect handling and tyre wear. The tyres onyour Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but may need balancing again during the years youown the car. Whenever a tyre is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced beforebeing reinstalled on the car. I080A01A-DAT TYRE TRACTION Tyre traction can be reduced if you drive on worn tyres, tyres that are improperly inflated or on slippery roadsurfaces. Tyres should be replaced when tread wear indicators appear. To reduce the possibility of losing control,slow down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the road.
