Air cleaner filter
We recommend that the air cleaner
filter be replaced by an authorised
HYUNDAI dealer.
Spark plugs
Make sure to install new spark plugs
of the correct heat range.
Cooling system
Check the cooling system parts,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
Engine coolant
The coolant should be changed at
the intervals specified in the mainte-
nance schedule.
Automatic transmission fluid
Automatic transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage
conditions.
We recommend that the automatic
transmission fluid be changed by an
authorised HYUNDAI dealer accord-
ing to the maintenance schedule.
Information
Automatic transmission fluid colour is
basically red. As the vehicle is driven,
the automatic transmission fluid will
begin to look darker.
This is a normal condition. It does not
need to be replaced based on the
colour change.
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure.
Use only specified automatic
transmission fluid. (Refer to
“Recommended lubricants and
capacities” in section 8.)

The emission control system of your
vehicle is covered by a written limited
warranty. Please see the warranty
information contained in the Service
Passpor t in your vehicle.
Yo u r v e h i c l e i s e q u i p p e d w i t h a n
emission control system to meet all
Australian Design Rules (ADR)
requirements.
There are three emission control
systems which are as follows.
(1) Crankcase emission control sys-
tem
(2) Evaporative emission control sys-
tem
(3) Exhaust emission control system
In order to assure the proper function
of the emission control systems, it is
recommended that you have your
vehicle inspected and maintained by
an authorised HYUNDAI dealer in
accordance with the maintenance
schedule in this manual.
1. Crankcase emission control
system
The positive crankcase ventilation
system is employed to prevent air
pollution caused by blow-by gases
being emitted from the crankcase.
This system supplies fresh filtered air
to the crankcase through the air
intake hose. Inside the crankcase,
the fresh air mixes with blow-by
gases, which then pass through the
PCV valve into the induction system.
For the Inspection and
Maintenance Test (With Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system)
•To p r e v e n t t h e v e h i c l e f r o m
misfiring during dynamome-
ter testing, turn the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) sys-
tem off by pressing the ESC
switch.
•After dynamometer testing is
completed, turn the ESC sys-
tem back on by pressing the
ESC switch again.
