SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICE
Follow the Normal Maintenance
Schedule if the vehicle is usually operat-
ed where none of the following conditions
apply. If any of the following conditions
apply, follow Maintenance Under Severe
Usage Conditions.
 Repeated short distance driving.
 Driving in dusty conditions or sandy areas.
 Extensive use of brakes.
 Driving in areas where salt or other corrosive materials are being used.
 Driving on rough or muddy roads.
 Driving in mountainous areas.
 Extended periods of idling or low speed operation.
 Driving for a prolonged period in cold temperatures and/or extremely humid
climates.
 More than 50% driving in heavy city traffic during hot weather above 32°C(90°F).
If your vehicle is operated under the
above conditions, you should inspect, replace or refill more frequently than thefollowing Normal Maintenance Schedule.
After the periods or distance shown inthe chart, continue to follow the pre- scribed maintenance intervals.

Maintenance
NORMAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE - EXCEPT EUROPE
The following maintenance services must be performed to ensure good emission control and performance. Keep receipts for all
vehicle emission services to protect your warranty. Where both mileage and time are shown, the frequency of service is deter-
mined by whichever occurs first. *1
: Adjust alternator and power steering (and water pump drive
belt) and air conditioner drive belt (if equipped).
Inspect and if necessary repair or replace.
* 2
: Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km (350
miles) or before starting a long trip.
* 3
: Driving in summer season temperature over 40 °C (104 °F
- SAUDI, UAE, OMAN, KUWAIT, BAHRAIN, QATAR, IRAN,
YEMEN ETC) or driving over 170 km/h (106 mile/h) must
conform the severe driving condition.
* 4
: This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is
applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or
equivalent">. If the diesel fuel specifications don't meet the
EN590, it must be replaced more frequently. HYUNDAI rec-
ommends "every 7,500km inspection, every 15,000kmreplacement".
If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow
restriction, surging, loss of power, hard starting problemetc., replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of main-
tenance schedule and consult an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer for details *
5
: For your convenience, it can be replaced prior to it's interval
when you do maintenance of other items.
* 6
: Inspect for excessive valve noise and/or engine vibration
and adjust if necessary. An authorized HYUNDAI dealer
should perform the operation.
* 7
: The fuel filter is considered to be maintenance free but peri-
odic inspection is recommended for this maintenance
schedule depends on fuel quality. If there are some impor-
tant matters like fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power,
hard starting problem etc, replace the fuel filter immediate-ly regardless of maintenance schedule and consult an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer for details.
* 8
: 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.
* 9
: Inspect drive belt tentioner, idler and alternator, pulley and if
necessary repair or replace.

Recommended SAE viscosity
number
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for sat-
isfactory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than those rec-ommended could result in engine dam-
age.When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change.Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain plug, ordipstick before checking or drain-ing any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areas and when the vehicle is used onunpaved roads. Cleaning the plugand dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that couldbe damaged.

: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity
grade SAE 0W-40, 5W-30, 5W-40 (API Service SL, SM / ACEA A5 or above).
* 2
: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity
grade SAE 5W-20,5W-30 (API SL, SM / ILSAC GF-3 or above). However, if the
engine oil is not available in your country, select the proper engine oil using the
engine oil viscosity chart.
* 3
: In Middle East, do not use the engine oil of viscosity grade SAE 5W-20.
* 4
: If your vehicle follows 30,000 km/ 1 year interval in normal maintenance schedule,
use the engine oil of viscosity grade, SAE 5W-30 or SAE 0W-30.
