NORMAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
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: Inspect drive belt tensioner, idler and alternator pulley and
if necessary correct or replace.
*
2: The engine oil level should be checked regularly and main-
tained properly. Operating with an insufficient amount of oil
can damage the engine, and such damage is not covered
by warranty.
*
3: Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km or before
starting a long trip.
*
4: If good quality petrol meeting Europe Fuel standards
(EN228) or equivalent, including fuel additives is not avail-
able, one bottle of additive is recommended. Additives are
available from your authorised HYUNDAI dealer along with
information on how to use them. Do not mix other additives.
*
5: 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 15,000km
replacement".
If there are some important safety matters like fuel flow
restriction, surging, loss of power, hard starting problem
etc., replace the fuel filter immediately regardless of main-
tenance schedule and consult an authorised HYUNDAI
dealer for details.*
6: For your convenience, it can be replaced prior to it's interval
when you do maintenance of other items.
*
7: Inspect for excessive valve noise and/or engine vibration
and adjust if necessary. An authorised HYUNDAI dealer
should perform the operation.
*
8: 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
authorised HYUNDAI dealer for details.
*
9: 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.
