If it is near or at L, add enough oil to bring
the level to F. Do not overfill. Use a funnel to help prevent oil frombeing spilled on engine components.
Use only the specified engine oil. (Refer
to “Recommended lubricants and capac-ities” in section 9.)
G060200APA Changing the engine oil and filter
Have engine oil and filter (including drain
plug gasket) changed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to theMaintenance Schedule at the beginningof this section.
WARNING
Used engine oil may cause irrita- tion or cancer of the skin if left in
contact with the skin for prolonged
periods of time. Used engine oil
contains chemicals that have
caused cancer in laboratory ani-
mals. Always protect your skin by
washing your hands thoroughlywith soap and warm water as soon
as possible after handling used oil.OPA071103N

✽✽NOTICE
“COLD” range is for reference only and
should NOT be used to determine
transaxle fluid level.
✽
✽ NOTICE
New automatic transaxle fluid should be
red. The red dye is added so the assem-
bly plant can identify it as automatic
transaxle fluid and distinguish it from
engine oil or antifreeze. The red dye,
which is not an indicator of fluid quali-
ty, is not permanent. As the vehicle is
driven, the automatic transaxle fluid
will begin to look darker. The color may
eventually appear light brown.
Therefore, have an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer change the automatic
transaxle fluid according to the
Scheduled Maintenance at the begin-
ning of this section.
Use only the specified automatic
transaxle fluid. (Refer to "Recommended
lubricants or capacities" in section 9.) G100200APA Changing the automatic transaxle fluid
Have automatic transaxle fluid changed
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealeraccording to the Maintenance Scheduleat the beginning of this section.
WARNING
- Parking brake
To avoid sudden movement of the
vehicle, apply parking brake and
depress the brake pedal before
moving the shift lever.

Specifications
I040100BUN 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, or
dipstick before checking or drain-ing any lubricant. This is especiallyimportant in dusty or sandy areas
and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plugand dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other mechanisms that could
be damaged.

*2. For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE 5W-20,5W-30 (API SL or above/ILSAC GF-3 or above). However, if the engine oil is not avail-
able in your country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
