Engine Coolant/Inverter Coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
Dual Clutch Transmission Fluid
Dual clutch transmission fluid should
not be checked under normal usage conditions.
Have the Intelligent variable transmission
fluid is changed by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer according to the
maintenance schedule.
Brake Hoses and Lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately.
Brake Fluid
Check the 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 conforming to DOT
4 specification.
Brake Discs, Pads, Calipers and
Rotors
Check the pads for excessive wear, discs
for run out and wear, and calipers for
fluid leakage.
Suspension Mounting Bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
Steering Gear Box, Linkage &
Boots/Lower Arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and the engine
off, check for excessive freeplay in the
steering wheel. Check the linkage for
bends or damage. Check the dust boots
and ball joints for deterioration, cracks, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Drive Shafts and Boots
Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps
for cracks, deterioration, or damage.
Replace any damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease.
Air Conditioning Refrigerant
Check the air conditioning lines and
connections for leakage and damage.

Checking the Engine Oil Level
Engine oil is used for lubricating,
cooling, and operating various hydraulic
components in the engine. Engine oil
consumption while driving is normal,
and it is necessary to check and refill the
engine oil regularly. Also, check and refill
the oil level within the recommended
maintenance schedule to prevent
deterioration of oil performance.
Check the engine oil following the below
procedure.
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on the level ground in P (Park) with the parking
brake set. If possible, block the wheels.
3. Turn the engine on and warm the engine up until the coolant
temperature reaches a constant
normal temperature.
4. Turn the engine off, remove the oil filler cap and pull the dipstick out.
Wait for 15 minutes for the oil to return
to the oil pan.
5. Wipe the dipstick clean and re-insert it fully.

6. Pull the dipstick out again and checkthe level.

7. If the oil level is below L, add enough oil to bring the level to F.
Use only the specified engine oil. (refer
to “Recommended Lubricants and
Capacities” in chapter 2) .

The high-pressure cooling system has a
reservoir filled with year-round antifreeze
coolant. The reservoir is filled at the
factory.
Check the antifreeze protection and
coolant level at least once a year, at
the beginning of the winter season and
before traveling to a colder climate.

OCN7H090008OCN7H090008
Inverter coolant capInverter coolant cap
1. Check if the radiator cap label is straight In front.
2. Make sure that the tiny protrusions inside the radiator cap should be
securely interlocked.
WARNING
Never remove the engine
coolant cap and/or inverter
coolant cap or the drain plug
while the engine and radiator
are hot. Hot coolant and steam
may blow out under pressure,
causing serious injury. Turn the vehicle off and wait until
the engine cools down. Use extreme
care when removing the engine
coolant cap and/or inverter coolant
cap. Wrap a thick towel around it,
and turn it counterclockwise slowly
while the pressure is released from
the cooling system. When you are sure
all the pressure has been released,
using a thick towel, continue turning
counterclockwise to remove it.
Information
The engine coolant and/or inverter coolant level is influenced by the hybrid system
temperature. Before checking or refilling
the engine coolant and/or inverter coolant, turn the hybrid vehicle off.
WARNING
The electric motor for the
cooling fan may continue to
operate or start up when the
engine is not running and can
cause serious injury. Keep
hands, clothing and tools away
from the rotating fan blades of
the cooling fan.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away
from the rotating fan blades of the
cooling fan.
Always turn off the vehicle unless the
vehicle has to be inspected with the engine on. Be cautious as the cooling
fan may operate if the negative (-)
battery terminal is not disconnected.
