(150,000 miles (240,000 km) or 240 months)
*
1: If TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is not available, one bottle of additive is recommended. Additives are available from
your authorized HYUNDAI dealer along with information on
how to use them. Do not mix other additives.
*
2: Inspect HSG belt for evidence of cuts, crocks, excessive wear or oil saturation and replace if necessary. If drive belt
noise occurred, readjust drive belt tension before replace.
*
3: Fuel filter & Fuel tank air filter are considered to be mainte- nance free but periodic inspection is recommended for this
maintenance schedule depends on fuel quality. 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 sched-
ule and consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for details.
❈ Inspect : Inspect and if necessary, adjust, correct, clean or
replace.

Maintenance
Cooling system
Check cooling system components,
such as radiator, coolant reservoir,
hoses and connections for leakage
and damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
Engine coolant/Inverter
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. But in severe conditions,
the fluid should be changed at an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer in accor-
dance to the scheduled maintenance
at the beginning of this chapter.
Automatic transmission fluid color
is basically red.
As the vehicle is driven, the auto-
matic transmission fluid will begin
to look darker. This is a normal
condition and you should not
judge the need to replace the fluid
based upon the changed color.
Brake hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and
any leakage. Replace any deteriorat-
ed or damaged parts immediately.
Brake fluid
Check brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX
marks on the side of the reservoir.
Use only hydraulic brake fluid con-
forming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 specifi-
cation.
Parking brake
Inspect the parking brake system
including the parking brake pedal
and cables.
NOTICE
The use of a non-specified fluid
could result in transmission mal-
function and failure. Use only the
specified automatic transmission
fluid (refer to "Recommended
Lubricants and Capacities" in
chapter 8).
CAUTION

*1Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel econo my by reducing
the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s
time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
