Change to "winter weight" oil if 
necessary
In some climates it is recommended that 
a lower viscosity "winter weight" oil be 
used during cold weather. See chapter 8 
for recommendations. If you aren't sure 
what weight oil you should use, consult 
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
Check battery and cables
Winter puts additional burdens on the 
battery system. Visually inspect the 
battery and cables as described in 
chapter 8. The level of charge in your 
battery can be checked by an authorized 
HYUNDAI dealer or a service station.
Check spark plugs and ignition 
system
Inspect your spark plugs as described in 
chapter 8 and replace them if necessary. 
Also check all ignition wiring and 
components to be sure they are not 
cracked, worn or damaged in any way.
Use approved window washer anti-
freeze in system
To keep the water in the window washer 
system from freezing, add an approved 
window washer anti-freeze solution in 
accordance with instructions on the 
container. Window washer anti-freeze is 
available from an authorized HYUNDAI 
dealer and most auto parts outlets. Do 
not use engine coolant or other types 
of antifreeze as these may damage the 
paint finish.
Do not let your parking brake freeze
Under some conditions your parking 
brake can freeze in the engaged position. 
This is most likely to happen when 
there is an accumulation of snow or 
ice around or near the rear brakes or 
if the brakes are wet. If there is a risk 
the parking brake may freeze, apply 
it only temporarily while you put the 
gear selector lever in P and block the 
rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then 
release the parking brake.
Do not let ice and snow accumulate 
underneath
Under some conditions, snow and ice 
can build up under the fenders and 
interfere with the steering. When driving 
in severe winter conditions where this 
may happen, you should periodically 
check underneath the car to be sure the 
movement of the front wheels and the 
steering components is not obstructed.
Don't place foreign objects 
or materials in the engine 
compartment
Placement of foreign object or materials 
which prevent cooling of the engine, in 
the engine compartment, may cause a 
failure or combustion. The manufacturer 
is not responsible for the damage caused 
by such placement.
To keep locks from freezing
To keep the locks from freezing, squirt 
an approved de-icer fluid or glycerine 
into the key opening. If a lock is covered 
with ice, squirt it with an approved de-
icing fluid to remove the ice. If the lock 
is frozen internally, you may be able to 
thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle 
the heated key with care to avoid injury.
