Information
Automatic transaxle fluid color is
basically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the automatic
transaxle fluid will begin to look darker.
It is normal condition and you should
not judge the need to replace the fluid
based upon the changed color.
The use of a nonspecified fluid
could result in transaxle malfunction

Use only specified automatic
transaxle fluid. (Refer to
"Recommended lubricants and

Maintenance
FuEl FIlTER (FOR dIESEl)
Draining water from fuel filter
The fuel filter for diesel engine plays
an important role of separating water
from fuel and accumulating the water
in its bottom.
If water accumulates in the fuel filter,
the warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.If this warning light turned
on, we recommend that the
system be serviced by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
If the water accumulated in the fuel
filter is not drained at proper times,
damages to the major parts such as
the fuel system can be caused by
water permeation in the fuel filter.
Extracting air from the fuel filter
If you drive until you have no fuel left
or if you replace the fuel filter, be
sure to extract air from the fuel sys
tem as it makes it difficult to start the
engine.
1. Pump up and down(1) approxi mately 50 times until the pump is
hard.
2. Extract air from the fuel filter by removing the bolt(2) with a cross
tip screw driver and reinstall thebolt(2).
3. Pump up and down(1) approxi mately 15 times. 4. Extract air from the fuel filter by
removing the bolt(2) with a cross
tip screw driver and reinstall thebolt(2).
5. Pump up and down(1) approxi mately 5 times.
Information
• Use cloths when you extract air so that the fuel is not sprayed around.
• Clean the fuel around the fuel filter or the injection pump before start
ing the engine to prevent fire.
• Finally, check each part if the fuel is leaking.i
