2016 Hyundai Creta alternator

Gasoline Engine
If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) illuminates, potential catalytic
converter damage is possible which
could result in loss of engine power.
In this case, we recommend that you
have the vehicle inspected by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer as soon
as possible.
Diesel Engine with DPF
(if equipped)
When the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) blinks, it may stop blinking after
driving the vehicle:
at more than 60km/h (37 mph), or
at more than 2nd gear with 1500 ~
2000 engine rpm for a certain time
(for about 25 minutes).
If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) continues to blink in spite of
the procedure, we recommend that
you have the DPF system checked
by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
(Continued)
(Continued)
If you continue to drive with the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
blinking for a long time, the DPF sys
tem can be damaged and fuel con
sumption can worsen.
Diesel Engine
If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) blinks, some error related to
the injection quantity adjustment
occurs which could result in loss of
engine power, combustion noise and
poor emission.
In this case, we recommend that you
have the engine control system
inspected by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.

Recommended engine coolant
• Use only soft (distilled) water in thecoolant mixture.
• The engine in your vehicle has alu minum engine parts and must be
protected by an ethyleneglycol
based coolant to prevent corrosion
and freezing.
• DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol coolant or mix them with the spec
ified coolant.
• Do not use a solution that contains more than 60% antifreeze or less
than 35% antifreeze, which would
reduce the effectiveness of the
solution.
For mixture percentage, refer to the
following table.
Changing the coolant
We recommend that the coolant be
replaced by an authorized HYUNDAI
dealer.
Put a thick cloth or fabric around the
radiator cap before refilling the
coolant in order to prevent the
coolant from overflowing into engine
parts such as the alternator.
