NORMAL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE (FOR EUROPE A2 2.5 DIESEL ENGINE) (CONT.)
I : Inspect and if necessary, adjust, correct, clean or replace.
R : Replace or change.
*
1: Adjust alternator and power steering (and water pump drive belt) and air conditioner drive belt (if equipped). Inspect and if necessary correct
or replace.
*
2: Check the engine oil level and leak every 500 km (350 miles) or before starting a long trip. The engine oil level should be checked regularly and
maintained properly. Operating with an insufficient amount oil can damage the engine, and such damage is not covered by warranty.
*
3: If the recommended oil is not available, replace engine oil and engine oil filter every 20,000 km (12,500 miles) or 12 months.
*4: This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel <"EN590 or equivalent">. If the diesel fuel
specification doesn't meet the EN590, it must be replaced according to the severe maintenance schedule.
*
5: This maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. It is applicable only when using a qualified fuel < "EN590 or equivalent">. If the diesel fuel
specification doesn't meet the EN590, it must be replaced more frequently. 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 maintenance schedule and we recommend
that you consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ITEMS
G050100AUN
Engine oil and filter
The engine oil and filter should be
changed at the intervals specified in the
maintenance schedule. If the car is being
driven in severe conditions, more fre-
quent oil and filter changes are required.
G050200BUN
Drive belts
Inspect all drive belts for evidence of
cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil satu-
ration and replace if necessary. Drive
belts should be checked periodically for
proper tension and adjusted as neces-
sary.
G050300ATQ
Fuel filter (cartridge)
A clogged filter can limit the speed at
which the vehicle may be driven, damage
the emission system and cause multiple
issues such as hard starting. If an exces-
sive amount of foreign matter accumu-
lates in the fuel tank, the filter may
require replacement more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine
for several minutes, and check for leaks
at the connections. We recommend that
the fuel filter be replaced by an authoized
HYUNDAI dealer.
G050400AEN
Fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections
Check the fuel lines, fuel hoses and con-
nections for leakage and damage. We
recommend that the fuel lines, fuel hoses
and connectionsr be replaced by an
authoized HYUNDAI dealer.
WARNING - Diesel only
Never work on injection system
with engine running or within 30
seconds after shutting off engine.
High pressure pump, rail, injectors
and high pressure pipes are sub-
ject to high pressure even after the
engine stopped. The fuel jet pro-
duced by fuel leaks may cause seri-
ous injury, if it touch the body.
People using pacemakers should
not move than 30cm closer to the
ECU or wiring harness within the
engine room while engine is run-
ning, since the high currents in the
Common Rail system produce con-
siderable magnetic fields.
CAUTION
In case the fuel filter is clogged due
to not conforming to the mainte-
nance period, the fuel injection
equipment may supply the fuel
insufficiently, which may damage
the fuel injection equipment and
cause the engine to stall at worst
cases.
CAUTION
When you are inspecting the belt,
place the ignition switch in the
LOCK/OFF or ACC position.

✽NOTICE
New automatic transmission fluid
should be red. The red dye is added so
the assembly plant can identify it as
automatic transmission fluid and distin-
guish it from engine oil or antifreeze.
The red dye, which is not an indicator of
fluid quality, is not permanent. As the
vehicle is driven, the automatic trans-
mission fluid will begin to look darker.
The color may eventually appear light
brown. Therefore, we recommend that
the system be replaced by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
Scheduled Maintenance at the begin-
ning of this section.
Use only the specified automatic trans-
mission fluid. (Refer to “Recommended
lubricants and capacities” in section 9.)
G100200AFD
Changing the automatic transmis-
sion fluid
We recommend that the automatic trans-
mission fluid changed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the main-
tenance schedule.
G120100AUN
Checking the washer fluid level
The reservoir is translucent so that you
can check the level with a quick visual
inspection.
Check the fluid level in the washer fluid
reservoir and add fluid if necessary. Plain
water may be used if washer fluid is not
available.However, use washer solvent with
antifreeze characteristics in cold climates
to prevent freezing.
WARNING -Coolant
• Do not use radiator coolant or
antifreeze in the washer fluid
reservoir.
• Radiator coolant can severely
obscure visibility when sprayed
on the windshield and may cause
loss of vehicle control or damage
to paint and body trim.
• Windshield Washer fluid agents
contain some amounts of alcohol
and can be flammable under cer-
tain circumstances. Do not allow
sparks or flame to contact the
washer fluid or the washer fluid
reservoir. Damage to the vehicle
or occupants could occur.
• Windshield washer fluid is poi-
sonous to humans and animals.
Do not drink and avoid contacting
windshield washer fluid. Serious
injury or death could occur.

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 vis-
cosity engine oils are required for satisfac-
tory lubrication in hot weather. Using oils of
any viscosity other than those recom-
mended could result in engine damage.When choosing an oil, consider the range
of temperature your vehicle will be operat-
ed 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 especially
important in dusty or sandy areas
and when the vehicle is used on
unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug
and dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine
and other mechanisms that could
be damaged.

*1 : For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade
SAE 5W-20*2(API SM / ILSAC GF-4). However, if the engine oil is not available in your
country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
*
2 : In Middle East, do not use the engine oil of viscosity grade SAE 5W-20.
*3 : It is only for extreme cold area and to be restricted by driving condition and area.
(Especially, not recommended for sustained high loaded and high speed operation.)
