CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
G030B01HR
G030B02HR-GAT Recommended Oil
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE
viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature. Recommended viscosity is given in the following illustration. (2) The engine oil quality should meet
the following API classification:CF-4 or ABOVE
(3) The engine oil quality should meet
the following ACEA classification :B2 or B3
NOTE:
o For diesel-powered vehicle SAE 0W-30 oil should be used only in areas where extremely cold tem-peratures of 10°C (50°F) or below are experienced.
o For diesel-powered vehicle, if the
atmospheric temperatures are 0°C(32°F) or below, SAE 30 oil must not be used. This oil should beused only in areas where the at- mospheric temperatures are 0°C(32°F) or above. G030C01HR
G030A01HR-GAT Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It issuggested that you check the oil level at least once a week or every 500 km in normal use and more often if you are ona trip or driving in severe conditions.

G030D01HR-GAT Adding Oil 2.6 N/A
Before checking the oil, warm up the engine to normal operating tempera-ture and be sure your car is parked on level ground. Turn the engine off. Wait about ten minutes, then remove the dipstick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw it again. Thennote the highest level the oil has reached on the dipstick. It should be between the upper ("F") and lower ("L") range.
G030D01HR
2.5 TCI
HHR5005If 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 1.5 liters of oil. G350A01A-GAT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil Engine oil has the primary function of
lubricating and cooling the inside of theengine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil consump- tion in a normal engine are as follows;

!WARNING:
Be very careful when draining the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you!
4. When the oil has stopped draining, replace the drain plug using a new gasket and retighten by turning it clockwise.
Tightening torque : 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counterclockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper size. A certainamount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So be sure to have your drain pan in place underneathit.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance
with the instructions on the carton oron the filter itself. Do not over-tighten.
Tightening torque: 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m Be sure that the mounting surfaceon the engine is clean and that theold gasket is removed completely. Lubricate the new gasket on the filter with clean engine oil beforeinstallation.
!
7. Remove the engine oil level dipstick.
8. Refill the crankcase with the recom- mended engine oil slowly. Refer to the specification in chapter 9 for engine oil capacity.
CAUTION:
o Slowly pour the recommended oil by using a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage the engine.
o Do not spill engine oil, when add- ing or changing engine oil. If youdrop the engine oil on the engine room, wipe it off immediately. 9. Start the engine and check to be
sure no oil is leaking from the drainplug or oil filter.
10. Shut off the engine and recheck the
oil level.
NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally acceptable man- ner. It is suggested that it be placedin a sealed container and taken to a service station for reclamation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or putit into the household trash.
WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irritationor cancer of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods of time. Wash your hands thoroughlywith soap and warm water as soon as possible after handling used oil.

G050B01A-AAT Recommended Engine Coolant Use a high quality ethylene-glycol cool- ant in a 50/50 mix with water. Theengine coolant should be compatible with aluminum engine parts. Additional corrosion inhibitors or additives shouldnot be used. The cooling system must be maintained with the correct con- centration and type of engine coolantto prevent freezing and corrosion. Never allow the concentration of anti- freeze to exceed the 60% level or gobelow the 35% level, or damage to the cooling system may result. For proper concentration when adding or replacingthe engine coolant, refer to the following table.

CHECKING AND CHANGING THE ENGINE COOLANT
G050A01A-AAT
WARNING:
o Never attempt to remove the radia-tor cap while the engine is operat- ing or hot. Doing so might lead to cooling system and engine dam- age and could result in seriouspersonal injury from escaping hot coolant or steam.
o Turn the engine off and wait until
it cools down. Use extreme carewhen removing the radiator cap. Wrap a thick towel around it, andturn it counterclockwise slowly to the first stop. Step back while the pressure is released from the cool-ing system. When you are sure all the pressure has been released, press down on the cap, using athick towel, and continue turning counterclockwise to remove it. Removing radiator cap

G050C01A-GAT To Check the Coolant Level The coolant level can be seen on the side of the plastic coolant reservoir.The level of the coolant should be between the "L" and "F" lines on the reservoir when the engine is cold. If thelevel is below the "L" mark, add engine coolant to bring it up between "L" and "F". If the level is low, inspect forcoolant leaks and recheck the fluid level frequently. If the level drops again, visit your Hyundai dealer for an inspec-tion and diagnosis of the reason.
G050D01HR
G050D01HR-GAT To Change the Coolant The coolant should be changed at those intervals specified in the vehiclemaintenance schedule in Section 5.
CAUTION:
Engine coolant can damage the fin-ish of your car. If you spill enginecoolant on the car, wash it off thor- oughly with clean water.
!
1. Park the car on level ground, set the parking brake and lift up the front passenger's seat. (Refer to "To in- spect the Engine Compartment Un- der the Front Passenger's Seat" onpage 1-13). 2. Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without pressing down on it,until it stops. This relieves any pres-sure remaining in the cooling sys- tem. And remove the radiator cap by pushing down and turning counter-clockwise.
