o When the air flow rate is decreased,
the system should be checked at an
authorized dealer.

Replace every 10,000 miles (15,000 km) or 12 months
Note :
*1. The drive belt should be replaced when cracks occur or tension is reduced excessively.
*2. For the first time, inspect the drive belt at 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 72 months.
After that, inspect it every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or 24 months.
*3. When adding coolant, use only deionized water or soft water for your vehicle and never mix hard water in the coolant filled at the factory.
An improper coolant mixture can result in serious malfunction or engine damage.
*4. For the first time, replace the coolant at 120,000 miles (192,000 km) or 120 months.
After that, replace it every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months.
*5. Inspect the tensioner/idler when timing belt is replaced.F030C2MC-AATR : Replace I : Inspect and, after inspection, clean, adjust, repair or replace if necessary

3. Take out the climate control air filter
and replace it with a new one.
4. Installation is the reverse order of dis-
assembly.
OMC055013
G200A01A-AATReplacing a Fusible LinkA fusible link will melt if the electrical
circuits from the battery are ever over-
loaded, 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 for easy inspection.
OMC045003
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never
use anything but a new fusible link with
the same or lower amperage rating.
Never use a piece of wire or a higher-
rated fusible link. This could result in
serious damage and create a fire haz-
ard.

CONSUMER INFORMATIONI130A01A-AATThis consumer information has been pre-
pared in accordance with regulations is-
sued by the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration of the U.S. Depart-
ment of Transportation. It provides the
purchasers and/or prospective purchas-
ers of Hyundai automobiles with informa-
tion on uniform tire quality grading. Your
Hyundai dealer will help answer any
questions you may have as you read this
information.
I130B05A-AATTire Quality Grading
Department of Transportation quality
grades - All passenger vehicle tires
must conform to Federal motor vehicle
Safety Standards in addition to these
grades. These quality grades are
molded on the sidewall.
Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based on the wear
rate of the tire when tested under
controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example,
a tire graded 150 would wear one and
a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road char-
acteristics and climate.
WARRANTIES FOR YOUR
HYUNDAI VEHICLEI120A03A-AATPlease consult your Owner's Handbook
